**Buccaneers at Saints**(+3.5, 46.5) 4:05 (1 Viewer)

I'm gonna make a REALLY bold statement right here. I don't think not having Evans/Godwin is necessarily a bad thing for TB. I think they are onto something with BOTH Egbuka (obviously) and Tez Johnson. I don't understand this spread at all, TB is being vastly underrated here.

I think the Bucs offense pretty much does whatever they want. I'd be shocked if they didn't top 30 points this week. NO doesn't have anything like the Lions DL, and aren't really any better on the backend than the Lions backups. This feels like a huge bounceback week for Baker Mayfield. I think Egbuka has WR1 overall upside, and I like Tez as a WR2 candidate as well. I also think Rachaad White should be good for at least a TD, and maybe some big gainers too.

I think the Saints offense is gonna struggle across the board. The OL stinks and just lost their best guy in Eric McCoy. I think this game could get away from them really quick, and you'll be hoping for some Olave garbage time, that may not come.

Bucs cover with ease.
 
Bucs banged up but back in their division where they have thrived recently
Saints have played tough but so many trade rumors you wonder if management wants to win anymore this year
Baker and the Bucs rebound this week right nicely...

Tampa Bay- 29

N'Awlins- 19
 
No Evans, No Bucky, No Godwin, No Reddick, maybe no Vita Vea...the Bucs need this game before the Bye week
Get the feeling this is gonna be a lot closer than some might think
White needs to have a big game for the Bucs to be successful today

Bucs 23...Saints 20
 
The two South teams closest to the Bucs are down a combined 71-6 right now. Might not be a bad idea to give as many guys time off as possible if they get a win today.

If you guys didn’t have Brady and Gruden you’d be like the Capitals hanging all those banners for winning the NFC South. LOL.

I hope you don’t take that personally, but my word are those teams (and I cheer for the worst in the NFL) terrible right along with my team. Oh God.

Haha I don’t think they hang banners for divisions but it does get you an auto bid into the playoffs. I don’t think home field matters a ton in the NFL anymore so not a lot of point rushing guys back to earn that.
 
Buccs with a punch-out fumble recovery to start the game. Seems there's 1-2 of those punch out turnovers every weekend this season.
 
In the Brees era, getting the ball back with a minute-plus felt like automatic points.

Now, getting in position for a 50+ yard field goal would be a huge accomplishment.
 
Baker seems intent on forcing it into the end zone, even with defenders right there. Lucky he doesn't have 3 more picks.
 
Didn’t notice anything happen with Rachaad White. Coulda missed something, though - was occupied for a few minutes earlier.
