The Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Washington Redskins, two teams that are still looking to find their footing in the 2015 NFL season, collide in D.C. on Sunday. Both sides feature a pair of young quarterbacks who have had their fair share of struggles in Jameis Winston and Kirk Cousins.
- The Redskins are 5-12 SU in their last 17 games in October.
- The Redskins are 3-7 ATS in their last 10 games at home.
- The Buccaneers are 2-9 SU in their 11 games after the bye on the road since 1991.
It’s a different story on defense, however. Tampa Bay owns the fifth best defense in the NFL, while Washington comes in at eighth overall in that category.
The NFC South appears to be a two horse race at this point in the season between the Carolina Panthers and Atlanta Falcons with the Bucs barely ahead of the New Orleans Saints in third place at 2-3 SU. Washington’s 2-4 SU record is particularly disappointing for ‘Skins fans due to the overall weakness of the NFC East.
