Atlanta Falcons vs Tampa Bay Buccaneers Preview

Believe it or not, this shapes up to be a very important game for the Bucs despite the fact they’ve already locked up a playoff berth.

A win for Tampa Bay would secure the top Wild Card seed next week, meaning the Bucs would face a favourable matchup against the winner of the NFC East.

These two side have played out a couple of classics over the last calendar year and it would not be surprising if this one went right down to the wire.

The Falcons have nothing left to play for at this point other than the fact they’d probably like to snap their four-game losing streak, but as we’ve seen several times this year, you just never know when Matt Ryan might get hot.

Unfortunately, star wide receiver Julio Jones remains 50/50 to play after missing several weeks with a hamstring injury, meaning the Falcons could go into this game shorthanded against one of the top scoring teams in the league.

Aside from the playoff scenario, the Bucs will also sense the importance of this game in terms of momentum heading into the postseason.

Tampa Bay has played to an outstanding 5-1 record against the spread as the home favourite against the Falcons, and with some added rest on their side following last week’s drubbing of Detroit, they do look a good bet to add to win this one big.
