I think this #1 ranked rushing "D" stifles "Burner" Turner, and Matty Ice definitely won't be able to throw 5 picks against this team and still win! Divisional game, and could be the season for the Bucs.Tampa's been showing me something lately - let's see if they can show me something here.....

Bucs +1

I don't mind the Bucs in this situation.  They've been playing some great football and I dont think they will be lacking the necessary confidence to beat the overachieving 9-1 Falcons.  They will need to control the clock with their solid running game and keep Matty Ice off the field.  The one thing that worries me is the play of their young secondary. They're an opportunistic bunch, but they have a tendency to get beat by the big play. One of the main reasons why Tampa blew big leads against the Giants and Saints.

The home team has also won 7 of the last 10 meetings between these two.  If the game plays out like I think, then Tampa wins in a low scoring game.

I can't see the "low scoring" part.Based on the last 5 games,Tampa's average totals are 29.6. Atlanta's are 22.2. Comes out to 51.8. Throw in 3 of their last 4 have been overs.I'm thinking high scoring.

 I enjoy and respect all your analysis S-A

this a game to watch both teams are excellent ATS but i see a small edge in ATL on the road. MATT RYAN going against the worst passing D in there DIV. MATT is going to hurt them in the air an if they play J JONES it a double wammy in this ML cover

OVER for this game please!  Falcons #4 in passing yards, 6th in scoring while TB is the WORST in the league in giving up passing yards.  They're #1 in rush defense but that's fine since Ryan is more than content in airing out the ball.  

#5 & #6 in scoring in the league, makes this a nice over cover.  Freeman can easily chuck the ball down field and and they try to block the pass, you got madman crazy Doug Martin to make some big breaks on the 26th ranked rush defense!

Tampa Bay +1.5 over Atlanta!
 
 
Hot Tampa Bay now four straight wins!  But not against
top-quality teams.  Also, Tampa matchups now have six
straight "overs" last six games!
 
Will continue to run with QB Freeman and rookie RB
Doug Martin in this one.  But going against the 9-1
Atlanta Falcons won't be easy money!

Think Tampa comes down to earth. 4 game winning streak against car,sd,oak and min. dont overvalue the bucks!

Atlanta doesnt need 100yds on the ground to win. They average under 90 yards per game. This is the right opponent for ryan to get back on track.

ATL -1

Both cant stop the pass,so i expect alot of points here and"OVER".

But yes, as a few mentioned here that Ryan is coming off a bad effort,i do expect him to much better with focus n effort today.

Still taking over in this game but,if i were to pick,i would take the dirty birdies +3

     WHAT IS HATE ?
Take a seat UBIGDUMMY !

10 years between these two =
996 Falcs penalty Yrds
to
1,208 Bucs penalty Yrds
 
No hotter team than Bucs n' Soft Schedule absolutely does not figure in the way of this heated Rivalry especially with game at Home Sombrero.
Falcs may have been looking ahead to this one n'  Matty Ice should Bounce back vs 5 INT day vs Bucs weak man to man Corner D.
However Falcs will have absolutely Nowhere to run to VS # 1 rated Bucs Rushing D.
Too much pressure on Matty Ice and Likely not 5 but 1 or 2 critical INT will dictate fierce divisional battle likely to be decided in closing tics.
Matty Ice vs Freeman's 56 % Comp. rate :
Falcs find more ways to win with hurry up O .

Going Contrarian , Going $ Light for BOCOUP BUCS in OT
