The Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Las Vegas Raiders meet in week 7 Sunday Night Football NFL action at Allegiant Stadium in Sin City.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers look for a statement victory after winning four of their last five games. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have split their last eight road games. Tom Brady is completing 64.1 percent of his passes for 1,541 yards, 14 touchdowns and four interceptions. Brady has two or more touchdown passes in four of his last six games. Mike Evans and Scotty Miller have combined for 537 receiving yards and seven touchdowns while Rob Gronkowski has 17 receptions. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers ground game is averaging 109.2 yards per contest, and Ronald Jones II leads the way with 472 yards and three touchdowns. Defensively, Tampa Bay is allowing 20.3 points and 282 yards per game. Devin White leads the Tampa Bay Buccaneers with 50 tackles, Jason Pierre-Paul has 5.5 sacks and Carlton Davis has three interceptions.


The Las Vegas Raiders are coming off a bye week and look for a win after splitting their last four games. The Las Vegas Raiders have split their last eight home games. Derek Carr is completing 73.1 percent of his passes for 1,442 yards, 11 touchdowns and one interception. Carr has two or more touchdown passes in five of his last nine games. Darren Waller and Hunter Renfitem have combined for 536 receiving yards and three touchdowns while Nelson Agholor has 10 receptions. The Las Vegas Raiders ground game is averaging 121 yards per contest, and Josh Jacobs leads the way with 377 yards and five touchdowns. Defensively, Las Vegas is allowing 30.4 points and 393.6 yards per game. Johnathan Abram leads the Las Vegas Raiders with 28 tackles, Maxx Crosby has four sacks and Nicholas Moritem has one interception.

The Buccaneers are 1-5-1 ATS vs. a team with a winning record and 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games as a road favorite. The Raiders are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 home games and 5-2 ATS in their last 7 games overall. The over is 15-5 in Buccaneers last 20 games overall. The over is 4-0-1 in Raiders last 5 games overall. The underdog is 4-1 ATS in their last 5 meetings.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are starting to find their offensive groove, as they’ve scored 38 points in two of their last three games. The Las Vegas Raiders have had an extra week to prepare for this game and are coming off a contest where they outscored the Chiefs on the road. The issue in this game is that the Bucs are the best defense in the NFL at stopping the run, allowing an average of 64.3 rushing yards per contest. If the Bucs can slowdown Jacobs, Carr is going to be asked to do a lot of the heavy lifting, and I’m just not confident in him outperforming Brady in this spot. The Raiders look better than most people thought they would, but the Bucs and the cheap line feels like the way to go here.

Give me the Buccaneers and the low line.
