The Tampa Bay Buccaneers (+265) will beat the Patriots this sunday

[Jimmy0607]

Mark my words guy .... Patriots are not that good of a team .... Bucs are not that bad

Shiano shuts everyone and their bullshit up

ML +265

[etothep]

It would appear that Schiano needs to work on shutting his own players up

[TheMetsSuck]

if gronk plays i highly doubt it. Pats don't lose at home much.

[rcene]

No way in hell they win in Foxboro. Tampa's players don't like the coach. Freeman sucks.

Patriots cover the spread this Sunday

[MoneyLineDawg]

You have to beat the Pats AND the Zebras up in Foxboro.....They're a good enough team as it is, they don't need the phantom 3rd and long illegal contacts all game long and replays that always go their way

[crustyme]

change ur bucs avatar and people may take u seriously.

[Ari Gold]

Learned my lesson last week with the cowboys ML...just take the points and don't be greedy

Pats win by 30

[d2bets]

I agree Pats are beatable but I don't think the Bucs are the team to do it.

Next two in Atlanta and Cincinnatti they should get their asses handed to them.

[Doughboy22]

What a joke. Pats win by 3 Tds. Bucs are awful. This is an awful prediction. Do better homer

[Regul8er]

Until Freeman learns to control a game, and limit bad mistakes......this team is not ready to win road games in these types of environments.

[slacker00]

Bucs will find a way to lose, Pats will find a way to win. Pats kick a late FG to win 16-13.

[tblues2005]

Bucs are bad no doubt. Pats are having big problems scoring. It should be a low scoring game once again.

[Ratpack]

under is a sure bet

[PickoMoff]

Patriots cover the spread this Sunday

Win? Maybe. Cover? Nope!

NE already 0-2 against the spread and this was against BILLS and NYJ!

[k13]

They have a chance even though they suck.

But more likely a cover not a win.

[tyloxx420]

I know I am a Bucs fan so the Homer comments mean nothing, but!

This whole thing about the team hating the coach and hating this or that.. it really isn't anything. Revis has already admitted to saying he was just mad about losing, he had a 15 minute talk with Coach and worked out any things they didn't see eye to eye on. This whole thing has turned into a Miley Cyrus story by these reports. The team is perfectly fine and if anything all this reporting and stories about the Bucs have made them stronger and want to win even more to shut everyone up. They sat down and figured everything out, instead of sitting around not doing anything about the problems.

Freeman is the only thing holding this team back from beating the Pats, The penalties will be held to a minimum (Atleast the Hits will) Goldson does not want another Fine or Suspension, all clean hits from him (at least for a couple weeks). They made their mistakes these past 2 weeks and will learn from it. By the end of the year they will have a Top 10 Defense in all areas and hopefully figure out a way to help or trade freeman.

They have only lost by a total of 3 points combined and thats because of a missed field goal and a penalty. if those 2 things didn't happen they would be 2-0 and no one would be saying anything besides good things.

If these young Pat receivers dont get on the same page as Brady they will not be any better than they have been (Jets should of beat them as well and Buffalo) If Gronk plays he will mainly be a decoy, they are not going to throw him the rock to many times against this tough D and risk losing him again. Slowly work him back in the swing of things.

Very Possible Upset (don't soak in all of the media stuff) and anyone that says the Bucs don't have talent is not very bright.

[Louisvillekid1]

+7 is my strongest play

i'll refute everything yu just said with one simple point



point 1)

its a quarterbacks league and your quarterback is shit

[biggerleaffan]

need to see the public money on NE first
if it's above 65% then you know the calls will be made to make sure TB covers

[stevenash]

TB to win the game straight up has been brought up several times today on WFAN today.
Like a previous poster said, Freeman is an idiot when it comes to reading defenses, and even though they are not the '85 Bears, the Pats have a pretty good D.

I'm leaning taking the points, but regarding the money line, there are better betting options out there.

Not a chance in hell. Freeman sucks but their defense is for real. They harassed/hit Brees all day, what's Brady gonna do with that receiving corp and no running game. Bucs probably find a way to lose, but by 30? No. The sad thing is if the quarterback play was on a par with the likes of T. Pryor or G. Smith the Bucs would be 2-0. That's a pretty low bar.

[ChalkyDog]

Pats have played against The Bills and Jets, and were relatively lucky in both.

Pressure is on TB offense, and mainly Freeman to come up with something this week. The defense can hold off the Pats. Especially considering their health concerns.

[Jnas]

Pats lose they suck this year

[rm18]

How are the Pats going to score with no receivers against Tampa's secondary? I doubt their defense pitches a shutout either it is not like JImmy is picking Tampa every week, plus with them 0-2 this is a very good spot.

[mcgeezer1883]

As a Bucs fan, I'm sure as hell not betting money line on TB. Looks like a go on the under cuz the Bucs defense is legit and Pats having scoring issues

[stevenash]

If Schiano has a brain, and he's done some pretty dopey things at RU, he doubles Edleman, makes Brady look for an ancillary receiver.

I agree, that post was more directed to the people that are so brainwashed with this media coverage on how internally messed up the Bucs are. Which is not the case, its only a team that lost 2 games they should of won and were upset about it.. that's it.

Freeman is the weakest link and needs to be removed.

[Eddy Munny]

I love this pick.....I don't care what the guy's avatar is. The Bucs have narrowly lost two games and the Pats have narrowly won two, so I reckon it's time for the laws of equilibrium to run their due course. You'd be foolish to forgo the points however. Take 'em...straight to the bank. Bucs+7 all day long.

[Cyyyyk]

I am no Bucs homer but I like the Bucs getting +7 or more. The Patriots are not the same team they used to be.

[PickoMoff]

[PickoMoff]

Pats lose they suck this year

And highly overrated!

[tokio]

Is Gronk and Amendola playing? If so, Pats cover.

[tyloxx420]

Amendola is Out, Gronk 50-50 chance but even if Gronk plays he will be more of a decoy. Might catch a couple balls but he will not be the normal Gronk we all know in his first week back.
