BY ADAM GREENE<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

There\u2019s just one reason why Monday Night Football didn\u2019t flex out of this game for a much better mach up and that reason is Tom Brady. It\u2019s just one more thing to hold against the dude.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the bright side, we\u2019ll get plenty of highlights of Brady losing the Super bowl as the Tampa Bay Buccaneers host the New York Giants at Raymond James Stadium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of course, none of that will fill your highlight packages up. What you will see is the Giants, led by future Pro Football Hall of Fame quarterback Eli Manning, defeating the Tom Brady led New England Patriots in the Super Bowl twice, once even denying the Pats the chance at finishing a perfect 19-0 season in the 2007-08.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

NEW YORK<\/strong> GIANTS AT TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS (-11.5, O\/U: 50)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Location:<\/strong> Raymond James Stadium, Tampa, Fla.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Broadcast:<\/strong> ESPN<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kickoff:<\/strong> Nov. 22, 8:15 p.m.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

NEW YORK<\/strong> GIANTS (3-6)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If there\u2019s a mystery with the Giants this year, it\u2019s the fact that two of their three victories have come against winning teams. Such was the case last week when New York knocked off the snake bit Las Vegas Raiders 23-16. Jones finished with just 110 yards passing, but did throw a TD. Devonte Booker rushed 21 times for 99 yards and Evan Engram hauled in a TD pass. New York sacked Derek Carr once and picked him off twice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS (5-4)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Buccaneers dropped their second game in a row a week ago, falling 29-19 to the Washington Football Team. Brady was once again careless with the ball at the end of the game, throwing for 220 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions. Mike Evans caught two passes for 62 yards. Leonard Fournette rushed 11 times for 47 yards. Tampa\u2019s defense did sack Taylor Heinicke five times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

THE PICK<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We talk about distractions a lot in the NFL and the Bucs got a big one this week when it was reveled that Antonio Brown might have faked his vaccine status<\/a> with a counterfeit card. Not only is that against the NFL\u2019s rules, but it\u2019s a federal crime to forge a vaccination card. And here\u2019s a fun fact: this year the Bucs are 5-0 with Brown active and on the field. They\u2019re 1-3 when he\u2019s not. He will not play Monday night. I\u2019m not sure it makes a difference in the win-loss columns, but I\u2019m not comfortable with the spread. Buccaneers 23, Giants 17<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Last week<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Straight up:<\/strong> 6-7-1<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Against the spread:<\/strong> 6-8<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Season<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Straight up:<\/strong> 89-60-1<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Against the spread:<\/strong> 74-76<\/p>\n\n\n\n
