It's rare we get a matchup with both teams coming off a bye, but that's the case for the Buccaneers and Giants here. It's also a matchup of two squads stuck in losing streaks entering the bye. Tampa Bay has lost four straight while New York has dropped five consecutive games.
Since both teams are off their byes, the natural inclination is that this could be a low-scoring game with the defenses well-rested and prepared. The over/under has also dropped notably this week. Even so, this can be a sneaky over bet for a few reasons.
First off, the Bucs are regularly playing in higher-scoring contests. The over is 7-3 in Tampa's games this year with at least 43 combined points scored in eight out of 10 games. The Buccaneers have allowed 23+ points in six straight games and are giving up 26.6 PPG (27th) and 389.3 total yards per game (30th).
By now, you've heard the Giants are making the quarterback change to Tommy DeVito. It's surely an interesting move considering Daniel Jones' contract, but that's a conversation for another day. As for DeVito, he could bring a jolt to the Giants’ offense like he did at times last season. Brian Daboll should also have a good game plan for DeVito with the extra week of prep.
On the other side, Tampa Bay's offense was outperforming expectations before the bye - despite missing Chris Godwin and Mike Evans. Overall, the Bucs are averaging 27.9 PPG (fifth) with at least 20 points scored in all but one game this year. Godwin remains out but Evans has a good chance at returning from his hamstring injury this week.
Either way, the Buccaneers should have success on the ground against a poor Giants rush defense. The unit is allowing 5.3 yards per carry (32nd) and 147.1 rush yards per game (29th) this year. The Bucs' two-headed backfield of Bucky Irving and Rachaad White can exploit this run defense to take pressure off Baker Mayfield.
Speaking of Irving, he's separated himself from White when it comes to who is Tampa's best rusher. Irving is averaging 5.1 yards per carry (YPC) with 492 rush yards compared to 3.8 YPC and 306 yards for White. Before the bye, Irving racked up 73 yards on 13 carries. He's also recorded more carries and more yards than White in three straight games coming into this week. The Giants have allowed 100+ rushing yards to three of the past four opposing lead backs they have faced.
Back to the Giants with DeVito under center. If Daboll is smart, he should have DeVito looking Malik Nabers' way early and often. The rookie wideout has 607 receiving yards in eight games, averaging 75.9 yards per contest. He was a favorite target in the offense with Jones under center and that shouldn't change - even if he doesn't have a rapport with DeVito. This 50+ yards line is low for a guy who's cleared it in seven out of eight games. Meanwhile, the Bucs are allowing the sixth-most receiving yards per game to wide receivers.
