Rams vs. Buccaneers Prediction & Odds
Tom Brady and the Bucs have an opportunity to seize first place in the lousy NFC South again, but they need a Falcons loss on Sunday and to beat a Rams team that they’ve struggled to beat in previous seasons.
Will Brady and Co. exact some revenge on L.A. or will the Rams prevail yet again?

Los Angeles Rams DFS Spin
Rams coach Sean McVay said Cooper Kupp (ankle) will play in Week 9 against the Bucs. Kupp came up limping in the fourth quarter of LA’s Week 8 loss to the 49ers. After the game, Kupp said he “dodged a bullet” and escaped with a minor injury. With no other receivers making an impact for the team, the Rams can’t afford to limit Kupp when he’s active. He will see his typical workload versus the Bucs this week. Kupp remains a top-three fantasy option at wide receiver.
Tampa Bay Bucs DFS Spin
Mike Evans (ankle) practiced on Thursday. Evans has participated in each of the Buccaneers’ first two practices this week and appears to be on track for Sunday’s matchup against the Rams. With a receiving line of 39-577-3 through eight games, Evans continues to be a reliable fantasy option and is a must-start in Week 9.
