00:00it's the Falcons and Buccaneers break it down.

00:05NFC South tilts.

00:06So the Bucs, I'll say this about them.

00:09When we started the season, I said, hey, Falcons are overrated.

00:13Bucs are my team.

00:14I'm going to pick them to win the NFC South.

00:16Now, the 3-1, they've looked pretty good.

00:20They blew out the Eagles last week at home.

00:22The game was not competitive.

00:23They can make a lot of mistakes.

00:25They can make a lot of mistakes.

00:27But when you really look at it, Scott, yes,

00:29they beat a beat up Eagles team,

00:31but they got to go on the road on a short week.

00:33They're down a bunch of,

00:34they're down two of their top four receivers.

00:36That does worry me.

00:37Antoine Winfield, one of the top,

00:39probably three safeties of the National Football League.

00:41He's out again with his sprained foot.

00:43Kalajit Kanthi, the first round pick of D,

00:45tackles out again with yet another calf injury.

00:47So on a short week, being beat up,

00:49I know they've been good on the road dating back to last season.

00:52They won four in a row.

00:53on the road again, going back to 2023 season.

00:55So that does worry me.

00:56But Atlanta and Raheem Morris,

00:58I expect them to bring the heat a little bit,

01:00make them hold on the ball.

01:01That's when Baker Mayfield gets confused.

01:03If you make them hold on to the football,

01:05he breaks down a little bit.

01:06The Falcons, by the way, really, really healthy.

01:08To me, the Falcons are going to win this game.

01:10I know they have not played great.

01:12I know their offense has got to take a next step.

01:14Their offense has been a little bit inconsistent.

01:16They're going to win here on a short week.

01:18My thing is, is like, for me,

01:20it's just Baker Mayfield and Mike Evans.

01:22Like if they're clicking, they can beat anybody.

01:24I know they can.

01:25And by the way,

01:26the move of Chris Godwin to the slot has meant everything to their

01:29passing game.

01:30That's by Liam Cohen, their offense coordinator,

01:32who's a Sean McVay guy.

01:33Give him credit.

01:34Godwin's the best slot receiver right now in the National Football

01:37League.

01:38Yeah.
