PUSH

Tom Brady was intercepted twice in his Tampa Bay debut and finished with 239 yards and two touchdowns. It's still unclear if the 43-year-old has enough left to lead the Buccaneers to the playoffs and then a Super Bowl. Last year he had the excuse of a lack of quality wide receivers in his final season with the Patriots. Carolina lost a close one to the Raiders, and the Panthers now have lost nine in a row dating to last season. Teddy Bridgewater was adequate in his first game with the Panthers, completing 22 of 34 for 270 yards with no interceptions. Carolina averaged 4.3 yards per carry, and Christian McCaffrey gained 96 yards on 23 carries. New coach Matt Ruhle has the Panthers looking much better overall than they did the second half of 2019, and they are getting too many points in this matchup. Six of the last eight meetings have stayed UNDER, and Carolina is 6-1 ATS the last seven meetings at Tampa Bay. The road team is 9-3 ATS the last 12 meetings, and the Bucs are 29-59-3 ATS their last 91 home games. Brady is still getting used to his new teammates, especially after no preseason games. Take the Panthers ATS for a Max Play and the UNDER.
