I took a lot of heat on here last week for picking against the all of a sudden beloved Lions, and pointing out that they were likely to do something stupid (try a fake FG up by 4 on the road), come up small late (30 some passing yards in the 2nd half after 350 something in the 1st) and that I didnt trust them to keep distance between them and the Bears and Packers (losing to a 3-6 team). After that I still have no reason to back this team. This is going to be a tough one for TB to win, but I believe they will stay close. Maybe Bobby Rainey and Glennon stay hot.

Bucs +9.5
Small play on the TB moneyline.

Going to take the Lions here.  Not too much insight, just letting the line do all the talking.  Bucs blowout the Falcons last week, and Lions lose to the Steelers, but that doesn't stop them from opening as almost 10 point favorites.  TB's decent play as of late gets some action on them, but the high line is suggesting a blowout.

Yeah, Bucs are decent enough against the run, but too bad Megatron could have a record setting day through the air though.....

Actually the high line is suggesting either a Detroit Blowout or a Straight up Tampa win. This is how they work, I assume it is to bust the teaser cards. So, either Detroit wins this by 20+ or Tampa beats them outright. I would lean Detroit of course, as Tampa is absolutely terrible. Falcons handed them that victory by turning the ball over so many times. I still think I will stay away from this one however because knowing how this league can be,  I would not be shocked in Tampa beat them straight up for their 3rd win in a row.  But more than likely Detroit will blow them out. It looks to be about even action on both sides.

Best of Luck

*Shocked IF

If anyone is going to play Tampa here though, you should take them  MONEY LINE. You're just wasting your money if you don't. Either Tamps wins SU or Detroit covers. That's been the trend of these 9.5 spreads

Detroit still makes too many errors for me to back them with this many points, even at home where they are always a better team this is just too many for a team with a bad secondary, bad penalties, and one wr. Tampa +9.5.

I'm staying away. I think Tampa might pull off the upset knowing this shady +9.5 line. But it does seem like Detroit should win this one by 21+ through the air.

this spread is outrageous.  should be detroit -4.  lions secondary is beat up.  bucs are playing great ball right now and glennon is showing why they were quick to dump freeman.  not sure why their is so much love for detroit this year and there should be more discussion about schwartz being the reason this team should not be taken seriously.

I love Bucs +9.5 and they may pull off an upset

Go ahead and disagree with me all you want...but that ATL spread was not 9.5 bro. The spread was 7.5 and that is why Atlanta covered but did not win outright. Had the spread been 9.5 ATL most likely would have won the game SU. Does it happen everytime? NO, of course not. If it did, we'd all be able to expliot the books like a babe whos smokin crack.

I stand by my word here, either Tampa wins SU or Detroit blows them out. We will see. I know me, I am staying away from this one as it screams TRAP

TRAP TRAP TRAP!!

I like the home fave here...

 

glennon has been great, but not on the road...

 

Detroit from 7 is going to cause problems for the backup rbs and glennon....

GL to all

My bad. It looks like the spread is actually 8.5 to 9 so I take back what I said. I think Detroit covers this for sure. 

This is probably one of the easiest bets on the board this week. And I still didn't bet on it. I thought the spread was 9.5 which freaked me out.
