This is a nice surprise.

Tampa Bay’s Week 9 loss to the Chiefs in Kansas City surprised many. Why? Many were expecting a double-digit loss by the Bucs under the lights at Arrowhead. But the Bucs took the defending champs into overtime before losing 30-24.

Heading into that matchup, confidence in the team had fallen. Just 26-percent of fans were confident the team was heading in the right direction.

This week, however, fans feel a bit better heading into Sunday’s matchup against the 49ers as 47-percent of the Bucs fan base is confident the team is heading in the right direction.

Can the Bucs get back in the win column the week?

The Bucs and 49ers kick things off Sundayat 1:00 PM EST with San Francisco set as 5.5-point favorites per FanDuel.
