New Orleans have played Tampa well in the Brady era and look a confident bet with the points.
Best Bet
The Bucs have scrapped their way to a 5-6 record this season but the third year with Tom Brady under centre has been mostly dismal.
Tampa’s have put up more than 22 points once all season and while they did beat the Saints 20-10 in Week 2, it was quite an underwhelming performance when you consider that the Saints turned the ball over five times and Jameis Winston was sacked six times.
New Orleans have caused Brady a lot of trouble, and boast a 4-2 head to head record against the future hall of famer since he arrived at his new franchise. This includes being shutout, as well as held to 3 points and 9 points.
It’s fair to say the Andy Dalton era in New Orleans has hardly been a success either, and last week’s duck egg against the 49ers reflects that.
Both teams have a plethora of star players on the injury report as well, but the loss of Tampa’s star tackle Tristan Wirfs will only further hurt the Bucs league worst running game.
This has all the hallmarks of a tight, low scoring match and with the points and the hook, New Orleans look a strong bet.
Same Game Multi
The Saints look an excellent chance of causing an upset here, and if they win it will likely be in a low scoring, grind it out affair.
Value Bet
The Saints Juwan Johnson is out with injury so this should see more involvement for the Saints other tight end, Adam Trautman. Johnson had five touchdowns in his last seven games, and those targets should find their way to Trautman.
