Schule's NFL BEAST of the EAST - BAL@TB
(NFL) Baltimore vs. Tampa Bay, 10/12/2014 9:00 AM, Score: 48 - 17
Money Line: -170.00 Baltimore (Away)
Result: Win
This is an 8* play on the Baltimore Ravens.

The Ravens couldn't get anything going offensively in a loss to the Colts last week. I expect a better showing from Joe Flacco and Baltimore's offense when they play the Bucs in Tampa today.

The Bucs have been brutal, with their only win this season coming in Pittsburgh in a game that they trailed until the final play of the game. Tampa ranks 30th in the NFL against the pass, allowing over 292 yards per game, and their run defense is well below average as well.

Tampa is winless at home, with losses to Carolina and St. Louis. If you can't beat the Rams at home, then you know times are tough.

Mike Glennon has been far more successful than Josh McCown, but this Baltimore defense figures to be the best he's seen to date.

Only the Eagles have turn the ball over more than Tampa, and such sloppy play isn't going to cut it against the Ravens.

Take BAL.
