Tampa Bay

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers started 2-0, but were humbled by the Pittsburgh Steelers two weeks ago. They have had extra time to recover and prepare for this one.

The Tampa Bay offense is led by quarterback Josh Freeman. Freeman is still developing as a quarterback, but he has improved quite a bit this season. The Bucs are still lacking a major play maker at wide receiver, which limits their ability to beat teams with the deep ball. At the running back spot, Cadillac Williams is healthy once again. Williams is averaging only 2.5 yards per carry this year, so Tampa Bay will need him to get going. As a whole this is an offense with far less weapons than most units in the NFL. The offensive line must play well and they must take full advantage of every opportunity they get.

The Tampa Bay defense has been their strength so far this year. They did struggle badly against the Steelers, but other than that game this unit has played extremely well. Gerald McCoy is helping a great deal in clogging the running lanes, and Aqib Talib has an interception in both games he has played already this year.  The Buccaneers are an opportunistic defense and they have done well to keep teams out of the end zone.

This is a young defense, but they are clearly making some significant improvement so far this season. Sports Betting at Sportsbook.com

Cincinnati

The Bengals have looked a little out of sync all year, but they have managed to open at 2-2. Last week’s loss to the Browns really hurt this team. How will they respond to the loss?

Carson Palmer looked terrible through the first three weeks of the season, but last week he finally seemed to get into a nice rhythm throwing the football. Palmer threw for 371 yards last week, including 222 yards to Terrell Owens. The Bengals will likely go after the young Tampa Bay secondary in this one. Cedric Benson was a huge reason the Bengals got into the playoffs last season, and the Bengals need him to get going again this year. Benson hasn’t run for 100 yards in a single game yet this season. If this Bengals offense can become balances, they have the potential to be very tough to stop.

The Cincinnati defense finished last season ranked in the top five in the NFL. Overall this year they have been pretty good, but they rank last in the NFL in sacks. The Bengals are also allowing opponents to convert 40% of their third down conversion attempts. This is a secondary that likes to take chances, and they do force quite a few turnovers. In order to be one the best defenses in the league this year, the Bengals must start putting some pressure on the quarterback.

The Pick:

The Buccaneers are looking to prove they are for real this season, while the Bengals are looking to stay in the AFC North race.

I’ve got a big premium play on this game. I am 17-6 in my last 23 football plays. You can find this one as part of my “Sunday NFL Guaranteed Trifecta.” http://www.capperspicks.com/handicappers/
