Buccaneers at Falcons picks and predictions

Prediction

Buccaneers 27, Falcons 21

Moneyline

BET BUCCANEERS +110.

Atlanta has struggled offensively this season only scoring more than 24 points just 2 times. While it has limited its opponents to 23 points combined in the past 2 weeks, the Buccaneers have scored at least 20 points in 4 of their last 5 games. Unless the Falcons can stimulate offense, expect Mayfield and company to come out of Atlanta with a victory.

Against the spread

PASS.

The moneyline presents more profit for the Buccaneers in this matchup.

Over/Under

BET OVER 41 (-110).

Both teams have struggled with the Over this season at 4-8. As a result, the total is set lower in this game with both teams performing well recently. The Falcons have an Over record of 3-2 in their last 5 games while the Buccaneers have it the Over in 3 of their last 5 games including back-to-back weeks and 2-1 in their last 3 road games.
