FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE OVER:

At the present time, the 9th-most pass-heavy team in football (62.0% adjusted for context) according to the projections is the Buccaneers.The 10th-highest number of plays in the league have been run by the Buccaneers this year (a colossal 58.9 per game on average).Still weather conditions (like the 2-mph wind being called for in this game) typically cause increased passing effectiveness, increased touchdown potential, increased air attack volume, and lower run volume.Sterling Shepard's 25.6 WOPR (Weighted Opportunity Rating—an advanced stat that calculates high-value offensive usage) has been substantially better this season than it was last season at 10.3.The Tampa Bay Buccaneers O-line grades out as the 2nd-best in the league this year in protecting the passer, which has a strong effect on all pass attack statistics across the board.

FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE UNDER:

A rushing game script is indicated by the Buccaneers being a 3-point favorite this week.The predictive model expects the Buccaneers to call the fewest total plays on the slate this week with 63.7 plays, accounting for their underlying play style and game dynamics.Opposing quarterbacks teams have been reluctant to rely on the passing game too much against the Commanders, averaging the fewest attempts in the NFL (just 28.9 per game) this year.This year, the tough Commanders defense has conceded a mere 63.4% Adjusted Completion Rate versus opposing WRs: the 8th-best rate in the NFL.When it comes to linebackers in covering pass-catchers, Washington's unit has been exceptional this year, profiling as the 3rd-best in the NFL.
