OUR PICK: The Buccaneers beat the Falcons last week and completely dominated Atlanta from a run defense standpoint, but Tampa Bay is thin in the secondary. After Palmer and some of his targets were off last week in the loss to New England, look for the Cardinals’ offense to look sharper on Sunday. The over is 4-0 in the Buccaneers’ last four games overall and 4-1 in their last five road games. The over is also 8-3 in the Cardinals’ last 11 games after allowing more than 350 total yards in his previous game.
