Falcons vs Buccaneers Prediction Week 5

Early NFL predictions and picks are from ESPN's Football Power Index (FPI).
Falcons: 14.1% to win
Buccaneers: 85.8% to win

The Buccaneers could control this game from start to finish, according to the opening betting lines. ESPN's FPI seems to also think Tampa Bay emerges victorious and I agree. This game comes down to how well the Bucs defense has performed in 2022. They have enough depth in the secondary to keep up with rookie wideout Drake London and enough speed at linebacker to keep quarterback Marcus Mariota contained in the pocket. With Tom Brady leading the offense, give me Tampa Bay -8.5 (-110).
