Saints vs. Buccaneers Expert Betting Predictions

Not only that, but the Saints’ offensive line is relatively healthy. Versus the San Francisco 49ers last Sunday, New Orleans moved the ball into the red zone 3 times but came away with zero points.

The Buccaneers’ defense is good, but it’s not Niners good. Tampa lost to Cleveland in overtime and the offensive line has struggled. Expect the Saints to sack Brady at least 3 times and could get to Tom up to 6 times in this game.

New Orleans will try to break down Tampa’s defense with the rush. This an go either way, which means taking the points is the best play.
