Earlier this month, the Buccaneers squeaked by the Panthers with a 26-23 overtime victory. The over cashed in that matchup as Tampa put up 445 total yards of offense and Carolina had 367 yards. Let's bank on another higher-scoring divisional showdown with a pair of questionable defenses.
Carolina is allowing 29.9 PPG (32nd in the NFL) and 385.9 total yards per game (31st). In turn, the over is 11-4 in Panthers games this season due to their poor defensive play. Meanwhile, Tampa Bay is averaging 28.5 PPG (fifth) and 389.7 total yards per game (third). The offense is playing well right now with Mike Evans and Bucky Irving healthy (more on them later).
On the other side, the Panthers have been a lot better offensively since Bryce Young returned as the starter. They're averaging 23.2 PPG over the past five games and just put up 36 on the Cardinals last week. They can take advantage of Tampa's second-worst pass defense that continues to allow opponents to hang around. The Bucs are 10-5 to the over this year.
Bucky Irving is proving time and again he should be the lead back over Rachaad White. The rookie running back is averaging 5.5 yards per carry this season. White's recent fumbling issues should lock Irving into more work moving forward. Irving has at least 68 rush yards in five straight healthy games, averaging 99.6 yards and 16.2 carries per game in this stretch. That includes the previous meeting versus Carolina when he exploded for 152 yards on 25 carries.
If you aren't aware, Mike Evans needs 182 receiving yards over the final two games of the regular season to crack 1,000 for the 11th straight year. It's a truly remarkable streak that he seems poised to continue. Evans has at least 68 yards in five straight games since returning from injury. He had 118 yards on eight catches vs. Carolina earlier this month and can easily duplicate that performance.
Let's wrap things up with a Panthers prop. The Bucs are allowing the second-most receiving yards per game to opposing tight ends at 67.8 per contest. It sets up well for Tommy Tremble to clear his low-yardage prop line. Tremble hasn't done much this year but he did have 77 yards on five catches against Tampa in the first meeting. He also just had 32 yards last week as Young is looking his way just enough.
