Bucs vs Jets NFL Handicapping
After enduring Tebow-mania last year, it didn’t seem like the New York Jets’ quarterback situation could get any crazier, but the competition between Mark Sanchez and Geno Smith has taken on a life of its own, and the Jets appear destined for another season mired in a quarterback controversy.

Tampa
The Buccaneers won again last week. That makes three in a row and 4 of their last 5. Due to this roll they enter Carolina as the slight favourite. To illustrate how things have changed throughout the course of the season Tampa was a 3 point dog to Carolina in the opener at home. Both of these teams were expected to improve this year but it has been Tampa that has taken the greater step forward.

Tampa may have won the last three, all by double digit margins, but this team is certainly no powerhouse. The game against San Diego could have gone either way until the Bucs opportunistic defense had a pick 6 to salt it away. This team is 3rd in the league in scoring despite being just above average in yards gained. They are also 30th in yards allowed but yet a respectable 18th in points against. At some point you would expect that something has got to give.
Tampa is 7-2 ATS this season including a perfect 4-0 as the visitors. This team is still a tough one to get a read on but there is enough talent to continue their winning ways against a team like Carolina that is already beginning to think about next season. It is hard not to like the Bucs in a situation where all they have to do is win the game.[soliloquy id=”82219″]
Carolina
Carolina got dumped last week by Denver unable to maintain any of the momentum from their win the week before against Washington. Its another lost season in Charlotte and it appears many are beginning to tire of the look at me antics of franchise face Cam Newton. This team has been dismal at home with 1-4 SU and ATS records. It is hard to find any real reason to get behind them this season after they were solid moneymakers last year.
If Cam is losing the team that is one thing but the other that is plainly clear is that the Panthers can’t afford to lose him. Newton is the top passer and rusher on a team struggling for point production. They prefer to move the ball on the ground but the Bucs are among league leaders in slowing down ground attacks so it may be on Newton to find a way to move the ball through the air. He will definitely have to be sharp to avoid the turnovers that killed San Diego last week.
Tampa seems to be able to frustrate teams while Carolina seems easily frustrated – that does not make for a great outcome for the Panthers. Another thing going against Carolina is that in each of the last three season one team has swept the other – Tampa took the first one this season. In fact they seem to be alternating that trend and it is Tampa’s turn to take two.
Spread Pick: Tampa Bay -1
O/U Pick: Under
Score Prediction: Tampa Bay 23 – Carolina 17
Chargers vs Bucs NFL Football Spread/Handicapping
After 6 of the worst quarters of football San Diego jumped out of their funk in beating the Kansas City Chiefs last week. Now they are off to Tampa for the first of two on the road and a three game stint against teams with .500 records or better.
Buccaneers vs Vikings NFL Football Spread/Handicapping
It was close but no cigar for Tampa Bay last Sunday. Against a desperate New Orleans squad they almost pulled out a win late.
Saints vs Buccaneers NFL Football Spread/Handicapping
The Saints finally got a win under their belt and then the bye week hit, seemingly stirring up more suspension and Bountygate stories. If they are going to do the impossible and get back in this thing they can afford two more losses by estimation.
Chiefs vs Buccaneers NFL Football Spread/Handicapping
The Kansas City Chiefs were supposed to bounce back this season. To date their only win was against a New Orleans squad that was in a funk until just recently.
Bucs vs Giants NFL Football Spread/Handicapping
The Greg Schiano era got off to a great start with a win (that I am pretty sure I predicted) to open the season last week. It certainly wasn’t anything fancy as Tampa was outgained in the contest but nevertheless they got it done.
Panthers vs Bucs NFL Football Spread/Handicapping
With Cam Newton leading the way the Carolina Panthers were among the most improved teams of 2011.

NFL Week 13 – Panthers vs Buccaneers
An intriguing AFC South battle comes our way on Sunday – intriguing not because the two teams are grappling for top spot but intriguing because both teams are far from where most thought they would be at this point of the season.
Pro Football Gambling – Buccaneers vs Titans
The Bucs (4-6) have lost 4 straight and if they lose to the Titans (5-5) in this non-conference match up the post-season will likely be a pipe dream.
Venue/ Stadium: Raymond James Stadium, Tampa, FL
The Bucs (3-2) have an uphill battle this week against a red-hot Saints team that has won 4 straight, as Tampa was blown out last week and they will likely be without RB LeGarrette Blount and DT Gerald McCoy, who are both questionable with injuries.
Venue/ Stadium: Candlestick Park, San Francisco, CA
The Bucs and 49ers are 3-1 and lead their divisions, which is a surprise so far on the young season.
Venue/Stadium: Raymond James Stadium, Tampa Bay, Florida
