Why Is Tampa Such A Big Dog?

[Speedy88]

Does ATL really deserve to be a 7pt fave here? I know Atlanta is coming off a bye, but Tampa is the better overall team.

Thoughts on this game. Probably going to play Tampa spread, ML looks worth a shot too.

Was mulling this myself. Atlanta has no Sjax, Roddy or Julio. So aside from forcing throws to Gonzalez, who I assume Revis will be on, who is Ryan going to throw to? Harry Douglas is currently the #1 wideout.

I was wondering this as well...I think the bye has a lot to do with it. No julio, roddy, or stephen jackson...tampa +7 seems like an easy play here.

Bucs should be able to move the ball on ATL, especially on the ground. I think Doug Martin finally puts together a good game. Bucs defense is good enough to keep them in this game.

Really like Tampa side.....but ML could be a legit play at +240
