10* GAME OF THE MONTH (VERY EARLY START!)
(NFL) Tampa Bay vs. Atlanta,
Point Spread: 11.00 | -110.00 Atlanta (Home)
Result: Loss
This is a 10* GAME OF THE MONTH on the Falcons.

I like the 5-6 Atlanta Falcons to fight tooth and nail and to at the very least, keep this one close enough to comfortably cover with the large spread they've been afforded.

The Bucs are off a tough 39-31 win over the Colts. Brady will be without both Antonio Brown and Mike Edwards today though.

Overall Tampa ranks 16th in points allowed per game and it's conceded 29 points or more in three out of their last four games.

Atlanta snapped a two-game slide with a big win over the Jaguars last weekend (21-14.) No reason not to think the Falcons can't build on that performance here at home.

The home team is actually 7-1 ATS the last eight in this series, while the Bucs are just 1-6 ATS in their last seven as a road favorite.

This number is much too high. No outright, but expect a very competitive game.

Grab the points, the play is ATLANTA.

Good luck, NP
