Why the Buccaneers can cover
Tampa Bay is 4-2-0 ATS this season and a perfect 3-0-0 ATS in road games. The Buccaneers are also 9-3-0 ATS over their last 12 games against NFC North teams. Mayfield has thrown for over 250 yards in three straight games and threw two deep passes for touchdowns against the 49ers. The Bucs run defense is only allowing 88.2 rushing yards per game, and they will have their hands full containing both Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery. See which team to back at SportsLine.
Why the Lions can cover
The hosts are also 4-2-0 ATS on the season, in addition to going 5-1-0 ATS over their last six games against the NFC South 13-3 straight over their last 16 games at Ford Field. Goff leads the NFL in completion percentage (75.9%) and touchdowns (14) and has thrown just two interceptions all season, neither of which came against the Chiefs. The Lions defense is allowing 308.2 total yards per game but just 23.7 points, so it will aim to slow down a Bucs team that has hit the Over in each of their last four games.
