Prescott thrives vs. Bucs blitz; dead-last pressure rate makes Tampa's scheme ineffective.

Dak Prescott is well-positioned against the Buccaneers' defense on Thursday night. Prescott is known as one of the most dangerous quarterbacks against the blitz, and the Bucs defense is not getting its money's worth from its high blitz rate—they rank dead last in the league in pressure rate. Historically, when the Buccaneers blitzed Prescott in the 2022-2023 playoffs, he completed 9 of 12 pass attempts for 109 yards and one touchdown across 35% of his dropbacks, demonstrating his ability to exploit aggressive defensive schemes.
