TAMPA  +10
Bucs keep it close

This is what I'm doing. 

Detroit -10  220/200

OV  41.5   220/200

Teasing  DET -4  OV  35.5  100/100

Lions win at home against a weak Bucs team but I fear the backdoor cover with a team that doesn't have the running game to run the clock out when needed.  Here is my play:

3 game Teaser     Detroit----Even   Broncos---Even   Packers---  -3

Large

Tampa Bay (+10) 15 DETROIT 21

This should be a low scoring game as it features two offenses that have been below average this season matched –up against two defenses that have been pretty good. The Bucs have averaged 314 total yards of offense this season at 5.3 yppl against teams that allow 368 yards at 5.8 yppl and will be facing a Lions defense that allows 301 yards at 5.0 yppl against teams that gain 348 yards at 5.5 yppl. Offensively, the Lions have only gained 343 yards at 5.3 yppl against teams that allow 358 yards at 5.7 yppl and face a Bucs defense that is about average overall. I don’t have much interest in this game as the line seems to be about right (my calculation has it at -10.2) and there is just a minor situation on the Bucs that is 499-413-15. This is Tampa’s third of four away games while the Lions are playing their second consecutive home game and are off of a mini-bye having last played on Thanksgiving. I’ll like with the Bucs to cover the large number in a low scoring game.

Lions in a blowout.

Why wont the Bucs give Mike Glennon a chance
He was clicking with both Evans and Jackson
Hes a 1st rd pick
Sure he throws alot of INTs but hes young
He orchestrated a comeback victory at Pittsburgh
Josh McCown is basically worthless at this point

If Glennon was playing, i could see the Bucs even winning here

Glennon is a 3rd rd pick

Over 41.5. GLTA.
