Buccaneers vs. Bills Picks
Point Spread Pick for Bucs vs. Bills
- Buffalo Bills -5.5 (4 Units)
The Bills have won four of their five home games, while the Buccaneers have won three of their last five games. Buffalo has the edge here because they have one of the best offenses in the league and can beat opponents through the air and on the ground. The Bucs have a good run defense, but their secondary isn’t very good, with the team giving up more than 230 passing yards per game, so expect them to have a hard time slowing down the Bills.
Tampa Bay will have a hard time keeping up in this game because they don’t run the ball well and rely heavily on their passing game. The Bills aren’t great against the run, but they have the third-best pass defense in the country, so expect them to keep Tampa Bay’s offense in check. Go with Buffalo to cover the spread.
Over/Under Pick for Buccaneers vs. Bills
- Under 47 (4 Units)
Tampa Bay averages 24.4 points per game. They throw the ball 59 percent of the time with the 14th-ranked passing attack in the league, and they’re facing a team that is third against the pass and is giving up 21.9 points per game. The Bills average 27.6 points per game. They throw the ball 51 percent of the time with the 12th-ranked passing attack in the league, and they’re facing a team that is 24th against the pass and is giving up 22.9 points per game. Don’t expect these teams to score enough points to push the score over the total.
