The Buccaneers are flatlining, losing four straight and threatening to sink without a trace in the NFC South having led the division in late September. Their opponents on Sunday, the Titans, are bottom of the AFC South and in desperate need of a win to salvage their season.

Here, we provide some top betting picks for the game as well as a range of sportsbook promo codes that offer up to $4,900 in welcome bonuses.

The Buccaneers lost their fourth-straight game in Week 9, covering as 2.5-point underdogs but going down to a game-winning touchdown six seconds from time in a 39-37 loss at the Houston Texans.

They now return home after two weeks on the road, but they’ve been short on home comforts this year, losing three in a row in Tampa to the Eagles, Lions, and Falcons and averaging just 10 points per game across those games.

The Bucs’ needs are getting more desperate by the week; they’ve fallen from 3-1 to 3-5 and their season needs resuscitation quickly if they’re to regain their footing. Still, they can take some solace from the fact they scored their highest points tally all year long despite defeat last week.

Their visitors on Sunday are the Titans, coming off an extended break after losing in Week 9 Thursday Night Football to the Steelers. Rookie quarterback Will Levis was brought back down to earth after the high of his quadruple-touchdown debut as Tennessee’s late comeback attempt fell short.

Tennessee is 0-4 this season outside of Nashville and is struggling offensively both on the ground and through the air. If the Titans are to change that, they’ll have to find a higher gear or else pivot their approach down in Florida.

Kickoff at Raymond James Stadium is at noon CT and CBS has the broadcast. The Buccaneers are tiny 1-point favorites.

Talk about a toss-up. This one is so tough to call for a plethora of reasons, not least the fact that these two teams are split by a hair’s breadth on both the moneyline and the spread.

On virtually the flip of a coin, we’re going for the Titans to cover. Tennessee has been competitive in virtually every game it’s played this season and while its road record stinks, Tampa isn’t much better than home and is in freefall. The flashes of offensive quality from Levis and Derrick Henry will need to be prominent, but the Titans can finally get that road win.

The Titans have committed to Levis, who will get the start again here. He hasn’t proven much so far through two weeks, but we’ve seen he’s got a cannon of an arm and has the potential to find the likes of DeAndre Hopkins from deep.

Tennessee’s offense has only managed to post 187.5 yards per game in the air on the season, but that low yardage is a bit of a red herring as Levis has thrown 250 yards on average so far. The Buccaneers, meanwhile, have the second-worst pass defense in the league, giving up 280 yards in the air, so Levis and Co. will have opportunities.
