When the Eagles played them earlier in the year it was still a one score game when the Bucs had prolly the #1 WR group with AB, Evans and Godwin. Now the Bucs are looking a lot thinner and the Eagles seemed to have a bit of an identity under Sirianni.
In terms of other under dogs I think the Cards should handle the Rams pretty easily. Stafford is a notorious choke artist. I think Pats take the Bills down as well.

I know the Bucs have a good run defense but no one has really stopped the Eagles' run game since they switched to their run-heavy offense. The only exception being that really weird Giants game where Siriani tried to go more pass-heavy at the start of the game. The weather conditions also look like they favour the ground game.
Not saying the Eagles win, but that 8 point spread looks a bit high to me.
