Bucs Defense An Elite Option Against Carolina
2 years agoThe Tampa Bay Buccaneers defense/special teams draw a favorable matchup against the Carolina Panthers in Week 7. The Bucs will look to bounce back against the Panthers after losing to the Pittsburgh Steelers 20-18 in Week 6. Carolina recently traded star running back Christian McCaffrey to the 49ers and will be without starting quarterback Baker Mayfield (ankle) for another week. Sunday's game between the Bucs and the Panthers has an over/under of 40.5, with Carolina having a low implied total of 15.5 points. The Panthers rank in the bottom of every offensive category and will have trouble moving the ball against the Bucs. Tampa is set up to be the highest-scoring defense and is an elite option against the Panthers in Week 7.
