Tampa Bay Buccaneers (7-5) @ Washington Redskins (5-7)

Time: 1:00 pm EST

Point Spread: Tampa Bay -1.5

Over/Under Line: 41

Preview: In a must win for both teams, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers will head to the nation’s capital to battle the Washington Redskins. The Buccaneers had a lead late in the game on Sunday, but fell to the Atlanta Falcons. With the loss, the Buccaneers fell a game behind New York, Green Bay and Philadelphia for the final playoff spot in the NFC. The Buccaneers are the youngest team in the NFL but have played well through most of the season. Tampa Bay has seen former Oregon running back LaGarrette Blount have a solid season. Blount has run the ball 134 times for 600 yards and 5 touchdowns.

The Redskins are on their last gasp to stay alive in the NFC East. Washington with their loss on Sunday to the Giants fell three games behind New York and Philadelphia. With just four games to go, Donovan McNabb and company must win out and get some luck. The Redskins are the 6th worst rushing team offensively. The Redskins are picking up nearly 90 yards per game on the ground. Also a problem for Washington has been the pass defense. The Redskins are allowing 260.3 yards per game in the air.

My NFL Betting Picks: Tampa Bay Buccaneers -1.5 and Over 41
