If Wilson is cleared, maybe I’ll just bet it Monday night, but I couldn’t lock it in if Brett Rypien turns out to be the starter.

I scrambled a bit to find a replacement. I considered the Bucs -11 (the line is up to 13 now after the Christian McCaffrey trade, part due to missing McCaffrey and part due to waving the white flag), but hesistated.
