Atlanta Falcons Form
Atlanta go into this Thursday night matchup having lost seven of their last eight games to fall to 4-9.
The Falcons made a decent start to the season as they won three of their first five games, but the wheels came off after the 20-10 defeat at San Francisco.
They were then blown out at home by Miami, 34-10, before heading back out on the road to lose 24-23 at New England and 31-25 in overtime to Indianapolis in Germany.
Atlanta’s skid reached five games with another overtime loss, this time 30-27 to Carolina, before the finally stopped the rot with a 24-10 win in New Orleans.
The Falcons failed to build on that however, as they were beaten 27-24 at the New York Jets and 37-9 at home to Seattle.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers Form
Tampa Bay enter this game in need of a victory, having lost four of their previous five outings to slip to 7-6.
The Buccaneers made a fast start to the season as they won six of their first eight games, only to cool off in early November.
They fall to a 28-23 defeat at home to New England, and that proved to be the start of a three-game skid as they fell 44-32 at Buffalo and 34-7 at the Los Angeles Rams.
Tampa Bay avoided a fourth straight loss as they returned home to down Arizona, 20-17, but they were unable to back that up.
The Buccaneers returned to losing ways last weekend, as they were beaten 24-20 at home by New Orleans.
Verdict
Tampa Bay’s recent form has been poor, but they are still the better team.
We are backing Baker Mayfield and the Bucs to cover the spread as they kick-start their playoff quest.
