After the Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ 28-23 home loss to the New England Patriots on Sunday, quarterback Baker Mayfield publicly stated that he felt the Tampa Bay offense lacked a “killer instinct” at Raymond James Stadium. Head coach Todd Bowles later agreed with Mayfield’s assessment. While speaking with reporters on Wednesday, Tampa Bay rookie wide receiver Emeka Egbuka was asked about Mayfield’s comments. “We don’t have too many divas in this locker room who think they’re above the law or anything like that,” Egbuka said, per the Buccaneers’ website. “We know everyone has to do their one-eleventh, whoever is on the field. People took great accountability, came in [Wednesday], and had a focused, locked-in session. [We] just have to continue stacking days throughout the week to fix everything that we need to fix before Sunday’s kickoff.” The Patriots seemed to have more energy, outscoring the Buccaneers 21-3 before the hosts tallied their second touchdown of the contest, cutting New England’s lead to 21-16.
