Eagles-Buccaneers: Our beat writers’ predictions

The Eagles look to stay perfect as the head down south to take on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who are coming off a big 48-40 win over the Saints.

So much attention went to the 48 points that the Buccaneers scored last week, and not enough attention has been paid to the 40 points they allowed. That's a welcome sign for an Eagles offense that lacked firepower last week. Add in the injuries in Tampa Bay's secondary, and I expect a better outing from Nick Foles and Co. on Sunday. Even without Alshon Jeffery, the passing game should be more effective.
