Buccaneers: Analyzing potential changes in the point spread
By Brian DeFeo
Week Seven Tampa Bay Bucs at Buffalo Bills
Vegas Spread: Bills (-1.5)
Like the Dolphins game this spread is picked primarily on location. It’s not like this is in late December giving the Bills a significant advantage. The Bills are a rebuilding team that has a solid foundation, the worst type of rebuilding team. They have players that can make them playoff contenders but their front office and coaching staff are new and might not be ready.
Tyrod Taylor was given another chance but the NFL has almost figured out how to stop the mobile quarterbacks. Their biggest threat is LeSean McCoy who is still an elite running back in the league. Outside of him their offense is rebuilding. Sammy Watkins has one good foot and their offensive line is good not great.
Tampa, on the other hand, is looking to take it to the next level. They are looking to jump from almost playoff team, to playoff team. The moves made so far will go along way towards making that happen. The Bucs should win this game and Vegas should realize how good this team actually is on the road.
