Sunday's best bets
Philadelphia Eagles at Tampa Bay Buccaneers (-8.5, 46)
Schatz: Both teams' offenses are better than their defenses, according to Football Outsiders DVOA ratings. The Buccaneers ended the year as the No. 1 offense in the league by that metric. The Eagles finished 11th on offense but also were just 25th on defense. Both like to pick up the pace, which leads to more points. Tampa Bay and Philadelphia ranked second and fifth, respectively, in situation-neutral pace. We estimate a 68% chance that this game will go over the total.
