    "Have to win" and actually winning rarely go hand in hand. Feels like upset alert to me.

      Tampa lost to Hundley 2 weeks ago, Stafford last week, Ryan 3 weeks ago, this team is on a losing streak and the season is over.

      In fact in the last 2 months they have o my beaten a banged up Miami team and the Jets. No playoff caliber squads.

      I don't see a trap, I see one of the easier plays of the season here and will lay the points first half and reassess. If Dallas can win in Oakland, ATL can win in TB.

        Lmao. Since when does what a team did against other teams have any barring on a game against a division rival or how they will perform this week? So easy they not even making you lay 7. No it not a trap, it falcons really ain't that much better than Tampa they just had a better season. Very few teams quit and play any less hard cause they out of it. Most have pride, most like their jobs and don't want film of them quiting out there when they hit free agency and trying to get paid. They would love nothing more than to hurt a division rivals playoff chances and will give just as much effort as the falcons.

            OK maybe its because I'm here in SW Florida and get the Tampa games all the time, but has anyone here actually watched this team this year? They have a self destruct button- Winston- who has regressed in his second year despite a terrific receiving squad.

            Falcons start hot in this one, looking for 17-10 at half.

              Oh you right they been hot garbage. Maybe watching them every week has numbed you to fact they still have plenty of capable talent tho? Would it shock me if atl whipped them? No not really, as you said Tampa been terrible they could certainly stink it up again, just seems like type of game where the dog has one more good effort in them and this seems like most likely week for that. Gotta admit bucs have more than enough talent to play with atl, just a matter if they will. I do like your idea of 1st half better than game tho, most atl losses come in second half. Gl

                If bucs are to play with them over seems pretty likely. Surely it has to be the offense who steps up cause only way d holds atl is if Matty cold as ice throws multiple picks,

                    Didn't he have like a 300 yard game vs them? I feel like at least one of these 2 meetings the last few years has been a shootout but just going off memory, not sure if accurate.

                        I believe so or close to it.

                        He has feasted off of them & it's been the talk here on local sports radio in Tampa area.

                        Gerald McCoy is hurting also.

                            Really feel like if I can convince myself to play tampons I'll be doing so on the money line. If it stays within spread im fairly confident atl will tighten up once again and piss game away. Think if they win it almost has to be comfortably, maybe the 6.5 could come into play with garbage time backdoor I suppose.

                                          Sucks as a Tampa fan that the organization believes in him so much & we're stuck with him.

                                            Nowhere close to a "trap" as line is actually slightly inflated due to Falcons needing to win and Bucs packing it in. If this game were in Atlanta, line would be around -13 so this line is not a trap.

                                                  Look on bright side. Of their 2 options when drafting him I still believe they absolutely got best option. I have way more belief he still has upside compared to mariota who everyone gives a pass to. I had more belief up until that weird pregame rant with the whole "eating Ws" thing, that kinda turned me off! Lol..

                                                  true he not the most accurate guy and never will be but he has a big arm and is capable of making plays. Plenty of guys have had success in this league with his type of accuracy. I think he a hard worker and believe he a good leader (well again that "w eating" thing scared me!), and believe he truely wants to win and willing to put in the time it takes to do so.. I think this year the hype just kinda got to this team, then they had the weird start not playing week 1 so every team was a week ahead of them early on, losses started piling up and they not experienced enough to deal with it.. hang in there Tampa fan, still think he gonna do some good things in this league.

If it stays within spread im fairly confident atl will tighten up once again and piss game away. Think if they win it almost has to be comfortably, maybe the 6.5 could come into play with garbage time backdoor I suppose.
                                                    +3.5 1H, +6.5 FT are both great plays imo

                                                      I couldn't take my money to a window and put anything that mattered to me on Tampa.... EVERYTHING screams ATL and I'm sure Vegas is on the hook for a lot of ML parlays and teasers on ATL to close/round out the weekend.

                                                      As a Saints fan, go TB!

                                                        Line is baiting everyone to take ATL... On paper they should blow TB out.

                                                          It reminds me a bit of last Monday's game when the Dolphins finally put forth a solid effort at home, under the lights, against a hated division rival. The Bucs might not suck tonight as much as normal.

                                                            Falcons will spread it out and win easily.

They are also 4-9 ATS. Atlanta is easy to figure out. They have scored 20 or more points in all of their wins this season, and 17 or less points in all of their losses. So the question becomes who are you willing to wager on. Atlanta's dynamic duo of Ryan and Jones, or the Tampa Bay defense?

Oh wow is Tampa really 4-9 ats? Groundbreaking incite! Way to spot a gem im sure the books overlooked!! Surely since they have a poor ats record they will continue not covering right? No way books would start adjusting their lines to prevent that? No way!! Thank god for you, so nice of your fraud ass to hand us the golden ticket! Just compare ats record and bet accordingly!! Keep pretending you not every bit a loser if not bigger than everyone else here. Fake ass wanna be pretend bad ass.
