Bucs Nation
Lines are set for Tampa Bay’s next matchup.
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have wrapped up their bye week with some added preparation as they head to New York this week to take on the Giants. But at 4-6, Tampa Bay is looking to add to the win column against a team with their own issues. Do oddsmakers give the Bucs any kind of respect this week?
Per to FanDuel, Tampa Bay is a 5.5-point favorite as the visiting team.
Point spread: Bucs -5.5
Point total: 41.5
Moneyline: Bucs -235, Giants +194
New York will be benching former first round quarterback Daniel Jones. What was once thought to be the face of the franchise since Eli Manning, Jones never panned out and will now be on the sideline for the remainder of the season.
On the other side of the field, Bucs quarterback Baker Mayfield has had a stellar season to this point. After 10 games, Mayfield is at the top of the league at nearly every critical quarterback statistic in the league. The defense, however, is largely to blame for their 4-6 record. And who knows how they’ll perform against Jones’ replacement Tommy DeVito. We’re all too familiar with how Bucs handle other quarterbacks on the opposing depth charts.
The game between the Bucs and Giants is schedule for next Sunday with kickoff at 1:00 PM ET.
