Carolina at Tampa Bay

Tampa Bay had its four-game win streak snapped 26-24 at Dallas, and now the Buccaneers need to win out and get help from other teams to make the postseason. They outgained the Cowboys 411-317 and held Dallas to just 31 rushing yards on 20 carries, but still came up short. Tampa Bay has won eight of the past nine meetings with Carolina while covering the number in seven of them. The Buccaneers won the first meeting 26-23 in overtime on Dec. 1 when they held the Panthers to 78 yards on the ground and outgained them 445-367. Carolina had lost four before its 36-30 overtime win over Arizona. Bryce Young completed 17 for 26 for 158 yards, and the Cardinals ran the ball 36 times. The Panthers have lost 14 of their last 15 road games and their past five at Tampa Bay. The Bucs have gone UNDER 10 of 15 home games and are on a 5-2 ATS run. Tampa Bay has allowed only 17.2 points per game in the past five games, and Carolina averages 18.9 points this season, which is seventh-worst in the NFL. Take the Buccaneers and the UNDER.
