Tampa Bay Buccaneers Under 8.5 wins (-150)

Even after losing Tom Brady to retirement following the 2022 season, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers kept on trucking in 2023. Todd Bowles’ team won the NFC South once again last season, before defeating the Eagles in the Wild Card round to advance to the Divisional Round for the 4th time in 5 years. What’s even more impressive is the fact that the Buccaneers found a way to make the playoffs (and win a playoff game) despite going through a stretch where they went 1-6 over 7 games from Week 6 to Week 12. Tampa Bay also has the worst winning percentage over a 2-year stretch in NFL history by a team that still made the playoffs in both seasons. If that stat doesn’t immediately scream out “regression” to you, then you might be looking at this Buccaneers squad with rose-colored glasses.
