Buccaneers 2024 Win Total Prediction
LEAN Buccaneers Under 7.5 Wins (+120)
Tampa managed to stave off a disaster of an offseason, but this play is purely based on the price.Â
I can’t think of many reasons to fade this Tampa team, but Dave Canales’s departure could prove an arduous one to overcome.Â
It’s tough to make that determination on a one-season sample size. However, it’s worth noting Tampa ranked 20th in offensive EPA per play under Byron Leftwich.Â
Last year in 2023, under Canales, Tampa jumped to 12th in offensive EPA per play, according to rbsdm.com.Â
To replace the departing Canales, the Bucs opted for Liam Coen, who last coordinated the Rams offense in 2022.Â
That unit ranked 29th in offensive EPA per play that year, albeit while dealing with myriad injuries.Â
Additionally, I can’t help but wonder if two departures on defense could lead to some regression.Â
Both Shaq Barrett and Devin White moved on from Tampa, along with corner Carlton Davis.Â
Virtually all of Tampa’s wins last season came as a function of a strong defense. Of their nine wins, six came while allowing 17 or fewer points.Â
In the event their defense doesn’t sustain levels from 2023 – they ranked 17th in defensive EPA per play – it’s easy to see a scenario where Tampa finishes under this number.Â
In an NFC South where I expect improvement from both Atlanta and Carolina, it’s the under or nothing for me. However, given Tampa has the 11th-easiest schedule this year, I’ll pass.Â
