The Buccaneers are playing host to the Ravens on Thursday as each squad looks to further its chances of competing for a division title.

Both the Ravens and Buccaneers are tied for their division lead entering Week 8. Neither has been overly impressive — they have a combined record of 7-7 — but each has the talent needed to make a playoff push.

Lamar Jackson and Tom Brady have played one another just once in their careers. Jackson's Ravens won that contest, 37-20. Brady will certainly be out for revenge in this one and will look to rally his troops to play with high intensity. That's something that Todd Bowles has been trying to get out of his team for weeks.

Here's everything to know about the Buccaneers vs. Ravens matchup ahead of Amazon's Thursday night NFL broadcast.

Who plays on Thursday Night Football tonight?

  • Matchup: Ravens at Buccaneers
  • Location: Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Fla.

The Ravens are traveling to Tampa Bay to face the Buccaneers in Week 8 of the 2022 NFL season. The two teams are in the thick of their divisional races to this point, but each have also underachieved this year.

The Ravens (4-3) are coming off a 23-20 win over the Browns in Week 7 and are tied for first in the AFC North with the Bengals (4-3). Baltimore relied on Lamar Jackson early in the season to carry the team, but the top quarterback has regressed a bit in recent weeks due to injuries to his top receivers and blockers.

While Baltimore is in the process of getting back on track with Gus Edwards healthy, its defense will need to play better to stay atop the AFC North. The Ravens have blown a double-digit lead in each of their three losses this season.

Meanwhile, the Buccaneers are coming off a 21-3 defeat to the Panthers, one that is among the worst losses of Brady's career. The Buccaneers' offense has sputtered this season despite the presence of Mike Evans and Chris Godwin. They have the league's worst rushing offense (64.4 yards per game) and that has caused Brady to throw more than Tampa Bay desires.

MORE: What's wrong with the Buccaneers' offense?

It seems like the changes to Brady's interior offensive line are impacting him greatly. He has been under pressure a lot with Ryan Jensen out and Ali Marpet retired. Unless the line can block better. Tampa Bay may continue to have trouble scoring.

As such, this could be more of a defensive battle than most expect. Still, it should be close between John Harbaugh and Todd Bowles' teams.

  • Date: Thursday, Oct. 27

NFL schedule Week 8

The Ravens vs. Buccaneers game will mark the start of NFL Week 8 with a solid-looking matchup. Both teams have had their share of struggles, but the quarterback duel between Jackson and Brady may be among the best of the week.

The "Sunday Night Football" game will, of course, rival that. Aaron Rodgers' Packers are looking to get off the schneid against Josh Allen's Bills. The Packers have lost three consecutive games while the 5-1 Bills are coming off a bye week and should be ready for action as big home favorites.

"Monday Night Football" will be a divisional clash between Joe Burrow's Bengals and Jacoby Brissett's Browns. Cincinnati has improved to 4-3 after an 0-2 start and looks poised to make a run at a division title with Baltimore breathing down its neck.

There will be one more stand-alone game in Week 8: The Broncos and Jaguars are facing off in London, in the NFL's third international game of the season. Both teams have stumbled to 2-5 records and will look to get back on track in what could be a defensive struggle.
