Free Sports Game Preview and Prediction: Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs. Atlanta Falcons
Sunday, December 05, 2021 1:00 PM
Play: Point Spread: -11/-105 Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Tampa Bay has so much offensive power - that their ppg has been even better than last year's team. It's been a great couple seasons for the Bucs - they worked on their running game and some Oline support - along with some schematic changes. Atlanta aren’t a good team yet somehow think it’s acceptable to give WRs too much cushion and force plays on offense. That falls on their coaching - the Atlanta system is broken, and their guys don't look like they bought into it this season. The Atlanta play calling hasn't been great - they need to do something different. Matt Ryan has to improve his ability to get the ball downfield, as he is bottom 5 in the NFL at YPG at 237.9 with QBs who have thrown the ball at least 379 times. The Falcons haven't shown up very well against better teams, often losing in the 1st half of games. The whole team needs to learn how to develop that little bit extra to make a play when needed, and creating some 1st downs would be a huge start for them. Falcons are 2-5 ATS in their last 7 vs. NFC South Tampa Bay wins by 17 or more.
