I voted for the Bucs to win. I think if their defense does to Oakland what they did to the Eagles that they will be the champions. Granted the Raiders are probably the Favorites to win but I like going against the odds.
Plus with Mike Alstott, Fullback for the Bucs, playing for them I have to cheer for them. Alstott went to the college that is only half hour away from me. Which if you all are wondering is Purdue University.

Yes, it's a really big mount that looks like a bowl and you can add 10X the weapons!

I figure Oakland is going to win it, but I would like to see Tampa Bay do it.

The Raiders will win, because their passing game and their talented receivers will beat Tampa Bay's two deep zone. The Bucs will have to counter by coming at the Raiders with more blitzes to overcome the Raiders' excellent offensive line, which will make them vulnerable to screen passes to Charlie Garner, trap plays, and such. On the other side of the ball, the Bucs don't have much that the Raiders defense can't handle. They ran 32 times for just 49 yards against the Eagles, which makes their victory in that game pretty remarkable. They'll be lucky to score 17 points against the Raiders. Final score: 27-13 Raiders.

One addage that has survived many many years of testing is this:

Defense wins championships.

I voted for Tampa Bay. We will see..

Best of all, Poetic justice will be served if John Gruden can beat his former owner's team.

P.S.

I hate the Raiders.


Sorry, Raider fans, I just had to get that out of my system.

May the best team win!

29-27 Tampa Bay wins. Mark my words.

After the game, you will return to my post in awe, at the fact that I have predicted the score exactly .

(Even if I have to use the edit button).
