Social media reacts to Tampa Bay drubbing Jacksonville 30-12
There’s no victory Monday quite like a Christmas victory Monday, and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are about to experience that and more.
The Bucs throttled the Jacksonville Jaguars 30-12 on Christmas Eve, moving to 8-7 on the year and becoming just one win away from clinching the NFC South and making the playoffs for the fourth consecutive season. It was a dominant win that wasn’t as close as the score would suggest, and naturally, Bucs fans on social media were loving it as the team gave Jacksonville a nightmare before Christmas.

Bucs S Antoine Winfield Jr. came into today's game w/107 tackles, 11 pass breakups, 5 forced fumbles, 4 sacks, 3 fumble recoveries and 2 picks on the year.
He's got a pick and a sack in the 1st half today.
Best in the game right now.

What a magical game. Ray Jay rocking since kickoff, Baker baked a masterclass, Mike Evans 2 TD, Defense dominated with 4 forced turnovers, 4 sacks and Bucs now one win away from 3rd straight NFC South title. What a perfect early gift!
Merry Christmas #GoBucs fans! 🎅🏼🎄

Bucs front office deserves a ton of credit for how they handled 2023
Took all their lumps in one season with over $81M in dead cap, most in the NFL. Another draft looks promising, as good as any team in the draft over the last half decade
Baker for 1/$4M
Should win NFC South

Bucs are up 20-0, stopped the Jaguars on 3rd down with 0:20 left and Todd Bowles called a timeout to get the ball back to try and keep pouring on points.

Credit to Bowles and Canales – this is the most prepared this team has looked in a long time
I want to see how the Eagles come out tomorrow, but I feel like this version will f the Bucs can play with both of them #GoBucs pic.twitter.com/2YNSIqVVii

Predicted a 27-16 final score for Bucs-Jags, assuming Trevor Lawrence would not play. That assumption wasn't really wrong despite him suiting up.

THIS current Bucs team beats Dallas or the eagles 😤💯

I said all week I was rooting for Baker and the Bucs to win the South because the one road playoff game the Cowboys can win would be at Tampa. But I've been watching Bucs 27, Jags 0 and now I'm not so sure Dallas could win at Tampa.
