Tampa Bay's offense is in transition and opens the new campaign on the road. QB Baker Mayfield has replaced Tom Brady and they have a new offensive coordinator in Dave Canales. The offensive line is still a weak spot and they were just 25th in the NFL in scoring (18.4 points per game) with Brady. The Bucs are on a 4-13 spread run. Minnesota has no such offensive concerns behind QB Kirk Cousins (29 TD, 14 INTs) leading an offense that was seventh in yards, sixth in passing, and eighth in points (24.9 pg) while winning the NFC North. The Vikings were 8-1 straight up at home last season, including a 16-point victory over the Packers in the opener. Play Minnesota.
