Football betting information shows that Tampa Bay is led by quarterback Jeff Garcia. The veteran quarterback had a nice 2007 season but his age is showing and he may regress in 2008 according to NFL betting experts. The running game of Tampa is worth watching according to football betting experts as Earnest Graham, Warrick Dunn and Michael Bennett all fight for carries along with Carnell Williams. The receivers in Tampa are good with Joey Galloway and Michael Clayton leading the way according to football betting information.
