The Bucs return home to face the reeling Miami Dolphins that are coming off 3 straight losses.

This past week, on the 2nd most-watched SNF of all time, the Bucs grinded out to a 19-17 win against the New England Patriots. Emotions ran high as the Return came down to 56-yard "doink". The Dolphins meanwhile are coming off a 27-17 loss to the Indianapolis Colts. The game wasn't that close though as the Colts led 20-3 and 27-10 before a DeVante Parker TD with 4:24 left.

The Bucs are currently a -10 favorite against the Phins, the O/U is set at 48, and FPI gives the Bucs a 74.9% chance of winning the game.

The tiebreaker this week is...the receiving yards of WR DeVante Parker. He has 242 yards on the season for an average of 60.5 YPG. Our secondary is banged up to hell though.

The Dolphins don't really do anything well. Their OLine isn't good. Their RB's are "ok". Their QB is below average. Their DLine can't stop the run. Their LB are pretty decent, but the secondary is rather "bleh". This game should be a blow out, much like their game vs Buffalo.

As always, I never read this thread until I post so if I got the same score predicted as you, you must suck at this also

Damn I was close

[Xandtar]

yes, you were.

back when I ran the thread many years ago I would also make a Bizarro reversed-color sig for anyone who hit the score straight, but in the wrong order, e.g. picking Fins 45 Bucs 17. But that happened very seldom, once every couple of years iirc.

I'm too tired to make a winner's sig tonight, I was just waiting for some confirmation because, well, last week I missed acmillis' closer score.

Yeah, that's the winner of this week.

Sorry this is a bit late, but here is your winner's sig. X.
