    I May be out of my mind (as usual) but Bucs should win Monday

    I never thought I'd use "Bucs" and "should win" in same sentence, but I think that's a case. From a purely football perspective, the whole bullying scandal leaves the Dolphins without two starting offensive linemen, with Incognito easily being the best one. And even with a fully healthy offensive line in tact, Miami leads the NFL in sacks allowed with 35 in 8 games. Buccaneers did some good things at Seattle and James and Glennon are both looking better than the vets they replaced (well, "vet" is relative for Doug Martin with James being a rookie).

    Well, Miami is short two starting linemen, so it really doesn't matter who is at fault or if it got blown out of proportion, the fact is Dolphins are short-handed this game. Of course they can still win 56-3, but I wouldn't count on it.

    Typical overreaction. Bucs play Seattle close and everyone thinks they can win this game. Does it hurt that Miami has two lineman out? Yes, but it does not mean they will lose. You should be worried about the Tampa Bay offense putting points on the board.

    I'm not touching this game.... too many variables. I could easily see MIA coming out tonight and scorching TB because of all the controversy. Kind of like when a crappy team's coach gets fired and they come out and win a couple games against good teams. Of course, I could also see them getting killed due to loss of linemen and overall chaos.

    IMO, this one's just too hard to predict.

    Miami will not be able to move the ball easily against this Tampa front. They have average talent at best at any position. Not one player you have to fear, other then Wallace. He will be in a bottle against Revis. Tampa is a hard hitting team. They will eventually realize that Schiano is a good motivator and can win in this league with force. This team is looking to build for the future. Take a look at some of the names playing for the Bucs-they have a good young team that needs some NFL experience. Miami is young maybe younger. That's something for you stat guys to find out who is a younger team. The only talk coming up about him losing his job is our great MEDIA. He has to have time to bring some of these draft picks into the fold and develop them. His QB impressed me at NC State needed to put on some weight. He has more QB time then Tannehill. Tampa has the edge in RB's', lines, DB's, Phins have the adv. in the WR's area but, in this match up it is neutral due to Revis. The Bucs play hard they have NOT gave up in these games. They have not been able to finish the game properly. They can build leads on more talented teams then the Dolphins. I'm on the Bucs and the POINTS. GL

    Maybe the bucs should bully the Miami linemen like Alvin Mac

    Just looked up ages in the NFL the age disparity from youngest to oldest teams was only 2 years. About 25 year for the youngest and 27 oldest. That won't tell you much. That needs to be condensed to the starters ages minus kickers and punters(some of those dudes can wear diapers and kick)for a better look into the numbers.

    Not really much of a difference. Basically a coin flip. Last four games points for vs. points against: TB 80-120, Mia 83-96. Not against the same caliber teams but it is just a stat. I think Miami's defense will be the difference.

    this was the easiest bet against game in recent memory. there could not of been anymore negative media crapola distractions towards Miami than this week. not sure how anyone could have even thought about betting Miami.

    Team beat writers and every story out of Miami was that the team was gelling around this. They were sick of the negative attention, knew it was blown out of proportion, and were practicing well and looking to take it out on the bucs.

    I didn't touch it cause from what I saw everyone and their mother loved Miami, but like LT said, the Martin/incgonito story likely had no affect except for the fact that Miami had to start two new offensive linemen.
