FALCONS at BUCS
8:15 p.m., Bucs by 5 ½, 44 ½
HANK’S HONEYS: Neither group deserves your religion. Baker Mayfield has been struggling, significantly when dealing with an excellent cross rush. The Falcons have that, with a median of 4.5 sacks over the previous six video games. Mayfield has handed for fewer than 200 yards in 4 straight video games and is answerable for 5 turnovers in comparison with 4 TD throws. Maybe he’ll flip it round right here in a must-win recreation however latest historical past favors the guests, who’re 5-2 ATS within the final seven matchups between the groups. It’s value contemplating, nevertheless, that the Bucs are tied with the AFC South lead whereas the Falcs have been eradicated from playoff eligibility and have proven indicators of quitting on Raheem Morris. The lack of Michael Penix and Drake London has turned the Atlanta offense right into a one-dimensional mess. The Bucs are good at stopping what Atlanta does finest — operating the soccer — so the beneath may be very a lot in play.
IF I WERE A BETTING MAN: Bucs and the beneath.
