The 6-5 Tampa Bay Buccaneers will kick off a three-week homestand in Week 13, as they try to snap a three-game losing skid against the 3-8 Arizona Cardinals, who have also dropped their last three. The game is scheduled for Sunday, November 30 at Raymond James Stadium, with kickoff at 1:00 p.m. ET. The Buccaneers are holding a slim half-game lead over the Carolina Panthers in the NFC South and have an all-time 11-11 record against the Cardinals.
Here are some additional numbers to know about the state of the Buccaneers and their 12th game of the 2025 campaign:
.574
The combined winning percentage of the 11 teams the Buccaneers have played so far in 2025 – also known as "strength of schedule." That's the third-highest SOS among all NFL teams, with only 1-10 Titans and 2-10 Giants facing a tougher slate. The SOS of the Bucs' next six opponents, however, is .368.
5
Tez Johnson's number of touchdown receptions in his rookie season after he caught a 14-yard scoring pass from Baker Mayfield on Sunday night against the Rams. Johnson already has the most touchdown catches in Bucs history by a rookie drafted in the seventh round or later, and only two rookies drafted that late since the NFL merger have had more.
22
Tampa Bay's win total from Week 13 on since the 2020 season, against just six losses. The Buccaneers enter Week 13 of the 2025 with a 6-5 record and six games remaining.
45
The number of regular-season games started for Baker Mayfield since he joined the Buccaneers in 2023. Mayfield is one of only three quarterbacks in the NFL who have started all 45 games since 2023, joining Buffalo's Josh Allen and Detroit's Jared Goff. That streak is potentially in jeopardy after Mayfield left last Sunday's game against the Rams with a left shoulder injury.
60
The number of penalties the Buccaneers have committed this season after getting flagged just two times each in the last two games. Only the Rams, with 51, have committed fewer penalties than the Buccaneers in 2025, and only the Rams and Bengals have racked up fewer penalty yards than the Bucs' 477.
150
The number of passes Arizona quarterback Jacoby Brissett has thrown in the Cardinals' last three games. In Week 11 against San Francisco, Brissett set an NFL single-game record by completing 47 passes on 57 attempts. The Buccaneers' 27th-ranked pass defense, which was without cornerbacks Jamel Dean and Benjamin Morrison in Week 12, is likely to be tested frequently in Week 13.
438
The number of rushing yards the Buccaneers' offense has generated over the past three games, or 146 per outing. That ground attack is expected to get another boost in Week 13 with the return of Bucky Irving, who has not played since Week Four due to shoulder and foot injuries.
