Saints at Buccaneers: Game notes

  • Tampa Bay leads New Orleans by a half-game in the NFC South. This is a rematch of their season opener when the Saints spoiled QB Tom Brady‘s Bucs debut with a 34-23 home win as 4-point favorites. Brady actually threw for more yards (239) than Saints QB Drew Brees (160) as they both tossed 2 touchdowns, but Brady had 2 interceptions to Brees’ none.
  • If you haven’t heard, Brady and Brees have been battling back and forth for the all-time touchdown passes lead. Brady is currently ahead 261-260.
  • The Saints are 7-0 vs. the O/U. They average 29.4 points per game, ranking 7th in the league. The defense allows 28.1 PPG to rank 23rd, but it ranks 8th in total yards allowed per game at 328.4.
  • The Bucs own a 5-3 O/U record, and score more points than the Saints at 30.9 PPG to rank 4th in the NFL. Their defense is even better, holding opponents to 20.6 PPG (7th), 70.4 rushing YPG (1st) and 299.5 total YPG (5th). Plus, their 14 takeaways are tied for the league lead.
  • The Saints enter on a 4-game win streak, but failed to cover the spread in each of their last 3 and are 2-5 ATS overall.
  • The Bucs own a 3-game win streak and are 4-4 ATS, failing to cover their last game – a 25-23 Monday night win at the New York Giants.
  • The Saints have won the last 4 vs. the Bucs, and hold a 7-3 lead in the last 10 of the series.

Saints at Buccaneers: Odds, betting lines, predictions and picks

Prediction

Buccaneers 20, Saints 17

Money line (?)

The Saints (+180) are tempting, especially with the Bucs (-213) having a short week after playing Monday night. But I’m not betting against the Tampa Bay defense. PASS.

Against the spread (?)

Speaking of that defense, that’s why the Buccaneers are going to win, but not by 5 or more points. Back the SAINTS +4.5 (-110). If the line drops to 3, it’s a PASS.

Over/Under (?)

The UNDER 50.5 (-106) is the play. While everyone would prefer a Brady vs. Brees shootout – in primetime no less – the Tampa Bay defense will show why it’s one of the best in the league. New Orleans’ perfect Over record comes to an end.
