Buffalo at Tampa Bay

August 23, 2025
img7:30 PM Eastern

Buffalo has a very good QB depth for a preseason finale in veterans Mitchell Trubisky, Mike White, and Shane Buechele. After scoring 9 points in the first two preseason games last season, the Bills scored 26 on the road at Carolina, plus topped Chicago on the road two years ago in Week 3, 24-21. Coach Sean McDermott has a winning preseason record, including 6-4 in the last preseason contest. Tampa Bay has been fairly conservative on offense in camp, opting for the short and intermediate game, which is what they did last season. The defense has allowed 7 and 14 points in two games. The average final score of Tampa Bay's last seven preseason games has been 20.8 to 11.7. Tampa Bay coach Todd Bowles has a losing August record, and at 2-0, the starters won't play. QB Kyle Trask will start. He has a career 36.4 completion percentage and was 3-of-10 for 19 yards last week, so back the visitors in a low-scoring affair. Take Buffalo + UNDER the total.
