Raiders vs Buccaneers ML, ATS and Over/Under Picks
1. Tampa Bay Buccaneers ML (-300)
One of these weeks, Tampa Bay will enjoy an easy victory. This could be it in front of the home fans.
Mayfield will likely gut it out and play well in this one. Although Irving (732 yards rushing, six TDs) has been a major cog, there is depth in the backfield if he can’t go. Rachaad White had the big run in overtime last week and Sean Tucker (6.3 yards per carry) is capable.
Mike Evans (seven TDs) is back and healthy to catch big passes as well while Sterling Shepard has caught nine balls in the last two games. Tight end Cade Otton (54 catches, 506 yards) is also a threat.
The Buccaneers have also played better defensively in the last two weeks. Anthony Nelson made the big strip to set up the winning drive.
The moneyline is a great addition to NFL picks and parlays this weekend.
2. Tampa Bay Buccaneers ATS (-6.5)
Las Vegas is overdue to snap its losing streak. It actually should have ended last week in Kansas City.
The Raiders limited the Chiefs to 63 yards on the ground, but they could not hold a two-point lead after two long touchdown passes by O’Connell. The second-year pro threw for a career-high 340 yards in the loss.

Can Las Vegas play that well again on the road? Yes, the Raiders won’t be a pushover. But they have lost by less than double figures in just three of the eight games during the losing streak. The Raiders are not a great bet to beat the NFL spread.
Las Vegas will need big games from rookie tight end Brock Bowers (84 catches, 884 yards, four TDs) and pass rusher Maxx Crosby (7 ½ sacks). It’s possible, but this looks like a big Tampa Bay win to get them over .500.

3. Raiders vs Buccaneers Over 46.5
Tampa Bay needed a late surge on offense to get over the hump last week and Las Vegas is near the bottom of the league with 18.6 points per game.
However, we think the over is a good call for your NFL betting this week.
The Buccaneers should be looser after escaping last week in Carolina and O’Connell is coming off a productive week that ended in rough fashion with a fumble before a potential winning field goal attempt. Bowers also leads all tight ends in yards and catches.
