The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are coming off a 48-14 win Sunday against the Carolina Panthers. Now at 9-7 and in sole possession of the NFC South after Atlanta’s loss to Washington, the Bucs will look to the New Orleans Saints next week. But are the oddsmakers giving any preference to the Buccaneers this week?
Per FanDuel, they are. Tampa Bay is a 13.5-point favorite at home for the final week of the regular season.
Point spread: Bucs -13.5
Point total: 43.5
Moneyline: Bucs -950, Saints +640
New Orleans is coming off a bad loss to the Las Vegas Raiders and will look to redeem themselves in Tampa by playing the role of spoiler. For the Bucs, they hope to build off a convincing Week 17 victory by adding another win to close out the season. And another win could mean a trip to the playoffs by winning the division.
The game between the Bucs and Saints is scheduled for next Sunday with kickoff set for 1:00 PM ET.
