The Buccaneers and Bills are both trying to bounce back from a loss in an effort to repeat as the champion of their division. The Bucs have actually lost two in a row, and after a 16-13 loss to the Falcons last week, they are half a game behind Atlanta in the NFC South. Meanwhile, the Bills suffered a disappointing loss to the Patriots last week, keeping the reigning AFC East champs a game behind the Dolphins.
Here are the odds DraftKings is giving for Thursday’s game:
Team | Spread | Moneyline | Over/Under |
Tampa Bay Buccaneers | +8.5 (-112) | +340 | Over 42 (-110) |
Buffalo Bills | -8.5 (-108) | -440 | Under 42 (-110) |
After displaying an explosive offense in Weeks 2-4, the Bills have cooled off considerably in recent weeks. They’ve lost two of their last three games despite being favored in all three games and failing to cover the spread in their one win. Not only is the Buffalo offense scuffling at the moment but the Bills are dealing with some key injuries on the defensive side of the ball. The good news is that the Bills are unbeaten at home, with two of those wins coming by 28 points.
As for the Bucs, their promising 2-0 start has quickly been forgotten by three losses in their last four games. Tampa’s offense behind Baker Mayfield showed some promise early in the season, only for the Buccaneers to score 19 total points over their last two games. The Bucs have also suffered lopsided losses against the Eagles and Lions, who are the best teams Tampa has faced thus far. Given that track record and Buffalo's success at home this year, the Bills should have a chance to get back on track Thursday night with a convincing win that covers the 8.5-point spread.
