Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Atlanta Falcons Predictions & Tips

They also have one big road win already this season, while Atlanta have dropped a couple at home.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers have won 3 of their 4 game so far
Atlanta Falcons have lost 2 of their 3 home games this season
Tampa Bay have won 6 of the last 8 meetings with Atlanta

Tampa Bay Buccaneers won 29-25 when the two teams last met in December 2023

Tampa Bay Buccaneers Form

Tampa Bay head into this big NFC South showdown having bounced back from their first defeat of the season to improve to 3-1.

The Buccaneers got off to a strong start as a couple of fourth-quarter touchdowns saw them pull away to beat Washington 37-20 at home.

They backed that up a week later when they went out on the road to beat one of the leading contenders from the NFC, the Detroit Lions, 20-16.

Tampa Bay failed to build on that a week later as they suffered a surprise 26-7 defeat at home to Denver, but their response was strong.

Baker Mayfield threw for 347 yards and a couple of touchdowns as the Buccaneers surged to a 33-16 victory over Philadelphia.

Atlanta Falcons Form

Atlanta are playing their fourth home game of the season already, but they have failed to make home advantage count as they have gone 2-2 through four weeks.

The Falcons were handed a home opener but fell to an 18-10 defeat when they entertained Pittsburgh.

They went out on the road a week later and got their first win on the board as they beat Philadelphia 22-21, but they failed to back that up.

Atlanta returned home for a Week 3 meeting with defending champions Kansas City, and fell to a 22-17 defeat.

The Falcons did respond well though, as they got back to .500 with a 26-24 win over division rivals New Orleans last weekend.

Verdict

TB Buccaneers @ ATL Falcons

Backing a road team on a short week is risky, but Tampa Bay are worth the risk.

Mayfield is in great form and the Buccaneers have a great recent record in recent visits to Atlanta.
