Tampa Bay at St. Louis

December 17, 2015
img8:25 PM Eastern

St. Louis is home, but is struggling. At least they have some offense, scoring 21 points last game. RB Todd Gurley busted out for 140 yards and two touchdowns on 16 carries last week. Gurley has had eight rushing TDs in his last eight contests, and is second in NFL history to Eric Dickerson (seven) for the most games of at least 125 rushing yards by a rookie with five. This game is indoors, which helps the offenses, and Tampa Bay is in town with an offense ranked #16 in points scored (22.2 points per game) and #11 in yards. RB Doug Martin ranks second in the league with 1,214 rushing yards and third in the NFC with 1,413 yards from scrimmage. Tampa Bay has a nice QB advantage this game and the Buccaneers are 4-0 ATS when following a straight-up loss, as well as 9-1 ATS when following a spread loss. The Buccaneers will be motivated for this one after not having qualified for the postseason since 2007, but are now just two games off the pace in the NFC Wild Card race. Tampa Bay is the underdog and the dog is 7-2-1 ATS in their last 10 meetings. Take the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the OVER.

Tampa Bay at St. Louis

December 22, 2013
img1:00 PM Eastern

The St. Louis Rams are off a huge upset win at home against New Orleans in what amounted to the Rams' Super Bowl. They have had a disappointing season at 6-8, but they have played hard down the stretch. They have played five straight games against good teams that all have a winning record. It is going to be very difficult to get motivated for a 4-10 Tampa Bay team after the emotional win, and the five straight games vs. top teams - especially off a big win. That presents a dangerous situation as Tampa Bay was once an 0-8 team, with no reason to play, but have fought hard, and are 4-2 over their last six games. While we have seen the negative impact on Green Bay after losing a QB, we have seen the positive impacts of inserting a competent QB in Tampa Bay in Mike Glennon, who is coming into his own and looking to be the QB of the Bucs' future. The Rams have a long history of falling apart at home against losing teams, having gone a pitiful 17-35-1 ATS in their last 52. Meanwhile, Jeff Fisher is 29-47 ATS in his career as a favorite of 3.5 to 9.5 points including 14-33 ATS at home in that role. Take the Bucs.
