Buccaneers vs. Dolphins live stream: Watch NFL Preseason Week 1 online
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers face the Miami Dolphins on Thursday, Aug. 9 in Week 1 of the 2018 NFL preseason. Here’s all the info you need to watch.
There were high hopes for both the Miami Dolphins and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers heading into last season. The latter were pegged by many to be one of the big breakout teams in the NFL last year. As for Adam Gase’s Phins, they were fresh off a playoff appearance and seemed as if they could continue forward from that if things went well.
Unfortunately for the Buccaneers and Dolphins alike, nothing went well for either team. The Bucs saw Jameis Winston not really take a step forward while their defense remained entirely problematic on the opposite side of the ball. As for Miami, Ryan Tannehill missed the entire season with a knee injury and they called on Jay Cutler to save the day. You can guess how that panned out.
Now it’s a new year as the two teams face off to start their respective runs through the 2018 preseason. The Dolphins will have Tannehill back, which is good for them, along with some changes in personnel. As for the Buccaneers, they’re in a tough spot with the Winston suspension looming over the start of the regular season, but will look to work out kinks at this time of year to best handle that when it comes.

It’s not a stretch at all to say that both the Dolphins and Buccaneers would prefer to forget about last year. They have the chance to do that, though they both have to do so after some key losses heading into this season. Even still, these are rosters with great talent littered throughout, so expect some solid football on Thursday night.
