USA TODAY Sports' Week 4 NFL picks: Buccaneers and Chiefs meet in Super Bowl 55 rematch

It's been little more than a year and a half since the breathless hype preceding Super Bowl 55 — "The GOAT vs. the kid," as Tom Brady's Tampa Bay Buccaneers prepared to host Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs.

Of course the event was a bust, Brady earning another Super Bowl MVP trophy, but the Bucs defense the true standout of a 31-9 beatdown that saw Mahomes running for his life all night.

Sunday night, these clubs — both coming off losses — and their quarterbacks square off again, the stakes much lower even if the matchup is still Week 4's headliner. It's essentially a pick 'em affair, the Buccaneers still working through injuries while handling the myriad distractions created by Hurricane Ian's landfall.
