The Buccaneers season hangs in the balance this week given the fact that, at 7-5 another loss would pretty much end any shot at making the postseason. Last week’s 28-24 loss to Atlanta was extremely painful after they blew a 10-point lead heading into the final quarter.

A Redskins season that started with such optimism has turned sour with four losses in their last five games. They currently have an offense that is ranked 20^th in the league overall and 28^th in scoring and a defense that is ranked dead last in the league overall and 23^rd in points allowed.

Tampa Bay is 3-1-1 ATS in its last five games against the Redskins and 5-1 ATS in its last six games overall. Washington is 1-3-1 ATS in its last five games as a home underdog. The Bucs keep the dream alive for at least one more week with a big win on the road.

The odds makers have the Tampa Bay Buccaneers as a -2 point favorite with an over/under of 41.
