4 Los Angeles Rams or 5 Arizona at 2 Tampa Bay
Sunday, January 23
NBC, 3:00 ET
Raymond James Stadium, Tampa, FL
Knee-Jerk Instant Analysis: Either way – the Rams-Cardinals game is happening tonight, and I’ll adjust this right after – the Tampa Bay defense will get this done.
However, the Buccaneers got way too banged up against Philadelphia in the layup win. The D did its job, and Tom Brady was terrific without his normal skill talent around him, but there’s a problem if it’s LA coming to town.
The Rams have the lines to hold up, the passing game showed in Week 3 that it could get rolling against the Tampa Bay D, and …
It’s playoff time. The Buccaneer defense will hold up against the run against either team, and the big passing yards will be there against either team’s secondary.
Knee-Jerk No Research Prediction: COMING
Early Line No-Look Guess: Tampa Bay -3.5 vs Rams, or -7.5 over Cardinals
Actual Line: COMING, o/u: COMING
NFL Playoff Divisional Round First Thought Predictions
