ATL -2 Seriously?

[Birdcage]

Gotta be the sucker bet of the week, no? Over 70% on the short road favorite coming off a huge win against GB and the line is dropping.

What's the deal here? I know Tampa hasn't really played much in the way of good teams, and the good ones they have played have blown them out....except the Falcons. Bucs have owned the Dirty Birds since I moved to Tampa, something stinks here.

I see one of those hard knock physical low scoring games with a good chance for the Bucs to pull off the win. I'm thinking the Under is worth a look before the favorite, and I'm also liking the dog for the side. Thoughts anyone?

Bucs D Team 15th, Passing 9th, Rushing 27th, 9th in points allowed.

Offense 24th total, 24th passing, rushing 13th, 23rd points scored.

Mike Williams may be a force here provided he doesn't spend too much time at MacDinton's on Saturday...as...

Atl D, 20th overall, 27th against the pass, and a stout 6th against the run. 7th in points allowed.

Offense is 10th overall, 14th in passing, 8th rushing 7th total points scored.

I like the revenge element in this game. Atlanta playing first of 3 games on the road.

Not wanting to open the gap even more, Tampa still has a shot at the playoffs in the wide open NFC, I feel. Certainly Atlanta is in the driver's seat, but TB and NO square off at the end of the year, and also need to go on the road to Balmer and Atlanta.

Bucs 8-3 against the math this year, ATL 6-5.
Atl +11 Net Turnovers
Tampa Bay +8


I wouldn't sleep on this Bucs team. Offense looked awful last week against Baltimore, almost frustrating to watch, but I suppose that's going to happen with a young QB going against one of the best in the league.

Good Luck Guys.

Birdcage...love the "Location" haha.
