Teams that start the regular season 0-2 in the NFL make the playoffs about 11 percent of the time, and both the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Carolina Panthers will try to avoid that uphill battle.

Something else that is a challenge is Tampa Bay winning games with Jameis Winston under center. The team is 6-17 straight up with him as the starting quarterback since the beginning of the 2017 season, and he has thrown 28 interceptions in that span.

Though that stat is very ugly for a Bucs offense that was able to muster just 10 points versus the San Francisco 49ers last week, coach Bruce Arians’ defense was solid, giving up just 4.3 yards per play. That mark ranked fifth among all teams in Week 1.

The Panthers have not been moneymakers themselves since their hot start to the 2018 season, losing eight of their last nine straight up and covering just two of those games.

Things seem to trend Under, too, for the Panthers as they have exceeded 21 points three times in this streak and have seen the total stay Under in four of their last six games.

With both teams in the bottom half of the league in yards per play and in the bottom 10 in yards per pass attempt, we should see both teams have a bit of a tough time moving the ball, making points hard to come by.

The Over/Under play: Panthers vs Buccaneers, Under 49.
