Buccaneers at Panthers picks and predictions
Prediction
Buccaneers 26, Panthers 18
Moneyline
The Buccaneers (-275) will cost you nearly 3 times your potential return, and that’s just a little too much for a divisional matchup, especially on the road.
The Panthers (+220) have won 2 of the past 3 games, and they nearly pulled off the upset vs. Kansas City last week. However, Carolina has lost 3 in a row against Tampa Bay, while the Bucs have won 7 of the past 8 in the series.
PASS.
Against the spread
The BUCCANEERS -6 (-110) are worth playing lightly on the road against the Panthers +6 (-110).
Tampa Bay covered last time it traveled to Charlotte, winning 9-0 Jan. 7. The Bucs are 4-1 ATS in the past 5 trips to Bank of America Stadium, too.
Be careful, though, as Carolina has covered in each of the past 3 games, with 2 outright wins as an underdog.
Over/Under
UNDER 46.5 (-110) is worth a look in this NFC South battle Sunday.
The Over has hit in 3 of the past 4 games for the Panthers, although the offense has still managed 20 or fewer points in 5 of the past 7 games.
The Buccaneers are 2-0 to the Under in their last 2 games, going for 25.0 points per game while allowing 15.0. Expect similar numbers Sunday.
