Taylor and if we run the ball a lot we should win this game with the Bucs not having Vita Vea...
Bengals - 34
Bucs - 31

If Joe has Tee at 100% i think he will go off in this game for 400+ and 3TDs on them.
35-27 to continue the hot streak
Anything can happen on any given Sunday, but I just don't see any version of this game that involves a shootout. The Bucs offense is basically comprised of 3 yard WR screens, check downs to the backs and an occasional running play. Brady and Evans haven't been on the same page lately, Goodwin hasn't regained his pre-injury explosion and their o-line is struggling big time.
Brady has completed 381 passes this year, but for just 3,585 yards...only 9.4 yards per completion and 6.4 per attempt. He's only had a QB rating over 90 in 5 games this year and has had to throw it 54 or more times in 3 of the last 5 games. Neither him or that offense has been good this year. I just can't imagine them suddenly getting it together for this game.
