Editor’s note: NESN.com’s Mike Cole, Ricky Doyle and Andre Khatchaturian deliver their NFL picks every Thursday of the season, and here’s who they like in the Tampa Bay Buccaneers-San Francisco 49ers Week 7 game, with the line from OddsShark.

(-2) Tampa Bay Buccaneers (2-3) at San Francisco 49ers (1-5), Sunday, 4:05 p.m.
Mike: 49ers. These are two very bad football teams, so I’ll take the team that protects the football better and is playing at home.
Ricky: Bucs. I’ll take the team with upside coming off a bye over the nearly unwatchable 49ers, who’ve been getting scoop slammed over the last five weeks.
Andre: Bucs. EXPLOSION WARNING! The 49ers have allowed the most explosive plays in the NFL (37), so maybe this is a chance for Tampa Bay wideout Mike Evans to break through. The Bucs are averaging just 4.8 yards per play offensively (31st), but that is skewed because of games against Arizona and Denver. The Bucs will be fine against the league?s bottom-feeders.
