The Bucs, fresh off a humiliating loss to the Jets, host the New Orleans Saints who are coming off a week 1 home win over Matty Ice and the Falcons. The Saints are -3 point favorites at GTBets this week with a total of 47. The Saints took both Games in this series a year ago, a 41-0 blowout at home and a 35-28 win on the road at Tampa.
The betting trends at 5dimes.com show that 68% of the action has been on the Saints this week and that they also are in love with the over as 93% of the action thus far is on the over 47 despite 5 of the last 6 in this series going under the total.
This could be a dangerous spot for the Saints. The Bucs are fuming from last weeks loss and a glaNCe back to last season shows the Bucs being a very competitive team against some of the better teams in the NFL, especially at home. Our take on the Bucs coming into this year was that they’d be in every Game this year with a chance to win. That being said, we’re going to buck the public here with BOTH the side and the total and go the opposite way. Bucs +3 and Under 47
