Can the Rams Exploit the Buccaneers’ Collapse and Seize Victory?
Buccaneers vs. Rams, 8:20 ET
I’ve been pretty religious about only putting out a Thursday Night Football play, two Sunday looks, and then covering Monday Night Football. For the year, we’ve done fairly well, but in Week 12, as the regular season is winding down, I feel like I should add a few plays in the mix. Tonight, we have the Buccaneers taking on the Rams in what could be a playoff battle between two of the better teams in the NFC.Â
The Buccaneers are 6-4 for the season with a 4-2 road record. This was one of the teams that I expected to keep their throne atop the division. While I’ve been correct up to this point in the year, I do have a bit of concern about Tampa Bay. The only reason that Tampa has a winning record is that Baker Mayfield has been able to bail them out. The four losses, against Philadelphia, at Detroit, against New England, and at Buffalo. In the two home games, they were at least competitive, but they were blown out by both the Lions and the Bills. The other big concern is that those losses are against likely playoff teams. Perhaps they are the best of the bad teams. A lot of that can be attributed to the fact that this team has had significant injuries to skill players. In this game, they need to be sharp and ready, because this is a good Los Angeles roster that is clicking at the moment.Â
