In 2024, Tampa Bay went 3-1 ATS as the away underdog and 5-3 ATS as the away team. The biggest problem area for the Texans is their offensive line, which allowed seven QB hits, three sacks, and had C.J. Stroud pressured on 41% of his dropbacks. The model predicts the Buccaneers (+2.5) will cover the spread in 58% of simulations.\u00a0<\/p>\n The Buccaneers offense is without Chris Godwin, but Emeka Egbuka immediately stepped up. In his debut, he finished with 67 receiving yards and two touchdowns. Tampa Bay’s Baker Mayfield had 167 passing yards with three touchdowns in the season opener. Houston’s offense only had nine points, yet fans should expect a better showing in a unit that has C.J. Stroud, Nico Collins, and Nick Chubb. They combine to score 46 total points, and the Over hits in 55% of simulations, according to the SportsLine Projection Model.<\/p>\n You’ve seen the model’s Week 2 NFL best bets.
