We are back with another NFL Thursday night prime-time game and it should be a good one! The 3-1 Tampa Bay Buccaneers head to Atlanta to take on their 1-3 division foe.

This was an interesting game to cap, to say the least, there are definitely arguments to be had on all sides of this game, whether you like one of the teams to win outright, or the total to go over or under, this should be a great battle tonight!

I am going to take tonight to give out a pick for all the DFS people out there! I love these 4 legs, and going to run this on Underdog to try to turn $100 into $348


Leg 1 - Bijan Robinson Higher 20.5 Receiving Yards

Starting things off with Robinson for the Falcons. He is their #1 skill position player and someone they look to feed early, often, and all game long. I am not buying the media narrative that he has a hamstring issue.

Yes, he landed on the injury report, but they talked to him and he is good to go. A lot of people are leaning towards Algier in this game. I am going to continue to ride Robinson and they will try to get him in open space against a fairly good pass defense.

Robinson has gone over this line in 9 out of his 11 home starts and has hit this in 6 straight home games. This season he has hit this line in 4/4 games while also hitting 54 on this Tampa defense last December!


Leg 2 - Chris Godwin Higher 50.5 Receiving Yards

Chris Godwin has been on fire to start this year and that should not be a shock to anyone. He has hit this line in all 4 games this season, and 9 out of his last 11 starts overall. He has also hit this in 4 out of his last 5 road starts as he is a trusted target for Mayfield.

What I love about Godwin is he is a 3 level receiver. He can attack the short, middle, and deep routes and they like to put him all over the field to find mismatches opposite of Mike Evans who should draw the toughest matchup tonight.

Leg 3 - Kirk Cousins Lower 1.5 Pass Touchdowns

This is probably the scariest leg on the card as he could do a quick out route to a running back and get him an easy touchdown. The Buccaneers have only allowed 1 passing touchdown through 4 games so far and that streak may continue tonight.

The Falcons rank 30th in red zone conversions, they just cannot get the ball in the endzone, through the air, once they get down there. What is impressive is this Bucs defense has seen Jared Goff(at home), Jalen Hurts, and Jalen Daliels who can all play make through the air.

Cousins has hit this in only 1 of his 4 games this year and I do not expect Kyle Pitts to do much over the middle, so perhaps London can find 1 but I am riding this Bucs pass defense for another week!


Leg 4 - Chase McLaughlin Higher 6.5 Kicking Points


I think this line is too low, I definitely believe we will see some points in this game, and I do believe he will find at least 2 extra points and 1 to 2 field goals tonight. Both teams allow opponents to move the ball, but it is a lot of chip away plays, rather than explosive plays, which could lead to more field goals tonight.

I do believe we will see a game played in the 20s for both teams which would give him an opportunity to at least see the number of kicks he needs to reach this. Through 4 games on the season, he has cashed this line 3 times with 13,8, and 9 points
