Tampa Bay's playoff scenario is a simple one this weekend. If the Buccaneers beat the Saints at home, they clinch the NFC South title and host a playoff game next week. New Orleans has nothing to play for and the offense likely struggles again with Derek Carr ruled out and Alvin Kamara doubtful.
The double-digit spread is a bit too large to back the Bucs in this spot, though. Let's just target their team total to play it safe. Tampa should find little resistance against a Saints defense that allowed 25 points to the Raiders last week and 34 points to the Packers two games ago. The Buccaneers put up 51 against New Orleans earlier this season and are averaging 32.7 PPG over the past six games.
You may have heard about the Mike Evans situation. The veteran wideout needs 85 receiving yards to get to 1,000 for the 11th straight season. The sportsbooks have reacted accordingly by pricing up his yardage prop. Even so, bank on the Baker Mayfield and the Bucs making sure their guy gets there. We saw it last week when Evans had 97 yards on eight catches.
As for Mayfield, he should get to 250 passing yards with several contract incentives in play - besides the Bucs needing to win to make the playoffs. Mayfield can earn up $2.5 million if he finishes top 10 in the NFL or top 5 in the NFC in multiple major passing categories. He's currently set to earn all of them but a good passing day would ensure that. Mayfield has 250+ yards in five of the past six games and eight of the last 11 contests.
How about one more Bucs prop to finish things off? Bucky Irving is averaging 101.8 rushing yards over the past six games when he's seen double-digit carries. He has 100+ rush yards in three of the last five games as well. With Tampa gearing up for the playoffs, expect Irving to continue getting the majority of work over Rachaad White. This is a great matchup with the Saints allowing the third-most rush yards per game in the league.
