**Raiders at Buccaneers** (-6.5, 46.5) 1:00 (1 Viewer)

@BoltNlava
There's several I kinda overlooked, Daniels still has to be in the mix
Bowers is very impressive on a terrible team with no QB
Agreed but Nix is doing what most thought improbable...Making Payton look viable in a new and reorganized NFL. I honestly thought Paytons time was over after Brees. It kinda was. He had to move on because it wasn't working anymore in N.O. I gotta say I am surprised at this outcome of events in Denver.
 
I feel like Jayden Daniels is the clear-cut rookie of the year. Love Bowers, but a TE isn't winning it, especially on a team fighting for the #1 pick, and Nix isn't doing anything better than Daniels is. I feel like the fact Washington had the #2 pick and has looked like a playoff team ALL season, only adds to his case. Also probably a case for Dan Quinn as coach of the year, but I digress as this is about Vegas and TB.

I think this is one of those games where the Raiders jump up to an early lead, but can't maintain momentum, and Baker Mayfield has a big 2nd half as TB claws back and wins. I do wonder if Bucky Irving is slightly overrated this week. I'm not saying bench him or anything, but I could see him back in the 12-15 range, and this being more of a Baker week. Rachaad White is probably a sneaky RB2 start, and obviously Evans could have multiple TDs against this awful CB group.

For the Raiders, I think the running game continues to be better than it was under Getsy. I feel like the ascension of Jordan Meredith at LG, and moving Jackson Powers-Johnson (other than that 1 snap last week) has also been a catalyst for the improved run game, more so than the actual RBs. Also, TB is awful against TEs, Brock Bowers TE1 week is easy to see happening, as Bowles is more likely to blitz and leave 1-1s than he is to bracket cover.

Tampa-27
Vegas-20
 
I agree that LVR will somehow be leading this game, maybe even going into halftime and then Baker will try and put the Superman cape on 2nd Half
Mayfield football is exciting and the Bucs are tied for 1st place, it's possible they could be leading the South by the end of the day, lot riding for them vs the Raiders
 
 
I have no doubt Baker and The Bucs will find a way to win this game.
Raiders may keep it close for most of the day
But I have more faith in Baker making some plays late than Aidan
Bucs staring at first place in the division
So...

Tampa Bay- 29
Las Vegas- 23
 
Super Bowl 37 highlights if anyone is feeling nostalgic. Sweet sounds of John Madden and Al Michaels included free of charge.

I was a Giants/Jets/Raiders fan growing up, so I’ll pass on that nostalgia that saw Barrett Robbins run off to Mexico and Bucs players knowing the Raiders play calls and audibles. Awful Super Bowl.

As far as this one goes, the Bucs should roll fairly easily.
