NFL Week 2 Early Odds, Picks & Predictions: Buccaneers vs. Saints

Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs. New Orleans Saints

In 2021, the New Orleans Saints defeated the Tampa Bay Buccaneers twice. The Saints held on in the first game of the two, winning 36-27. Then on the road, the Saints defeated the Buccaneers 9-0.

There have been a lot of question marks about the Saints. But what if the Saints show growth in Week 1 offensively? Jameis Winston is back under center, Alvin Kamara wasn’t suspended and Michael Thomas is back on the field. Also, the Saints signed Jarvis Landry in the offseason and added Chris Olave in the draft at wide receiver. A lot can go right for this offense, and we know what the New Orleans’ defense is capable of.

The Saints get the Falcons in Week 1, while the Buccaneers will play the Cowboys. There’s a much better chance that the Saints end up with a Week 1 victory while the Buccaneers don’t. If that’s the case, the Saints won’t be +160 at home in Week 2.

Bet: Saints (+160 at DraftKings
