STATFOX FORECASTER
TAMPA BAY (301) AT ATLANTA (302)
Latest Line: Falcons -6; Total: 46
The Buccaneers lost and failed to cover despite hosting a St. Louis Rams team that was starting Austin Davis at quarterback in Week 2. The Falcons went to Cincinnati, where they lost 24-10 as 5.5-point underdogs. Expect the Bucs to try to slow the game down in an effort to avoid getting into a shootout against Atlanta quarterback Matt Ryan and his group of talented receivers. Tampa Bay has won-and-covered in two of the last three meetings, and the Buccaneers are 5-2 ATS over their past seven games at Atlanta. Bucs RB Doug Martin (knee) is questionable after having missed Sunday’s game.
STATFOX SIX PACK:
•ATLANTA is 8-1 ATS when playing on a Thursday since 1992.
•ATLANTA is 6-0 UNDER after a game with a turnover margin of -2 or worse over the L3 seasons.
•ATLANTA is 18-6 ATS after allowing 400 or more total yards in 2 consecutive games since 1992.

•TAMPA BAY is 6-0 UNDER in September games over the L2 seasons.
•TAMPA BAY is 159-116 UNDER against conference opponents since 1992.
