    Tampa Bay Bucks at (+155)...what???

    I don't understand this line here....Am i missing something? I know the Saints will be good but (-175) and against Tampa just doesn't seem normal

    New Orleans always a powerhouse. Sounds about right.

    Brady, Gronk, Evans, Fornette, McCoy, Godwin doesn't make Tampa a powerhouse too?....Plus no preseason games evens things out. Sloppy football on week 1 coming up.

    No preseason means everything. I think the Bucs will win 10-11 games this season but will start slow. Maybe a 3-3 start before going on a run. Secondary still a bit suspect and unproven. Starting a rookie at safety this year.

    a good start is learning how to spell the team name buccaneers or bucs for short

    They're at New Orleans. Do you think that Tampa should be favored?

    Well, there will not be any fans at the game. If the Saints have an advantage it would only be their familiarity with their turf.

    And their passing game is good and the Bucs secondary is not. Huge mismatch there. Everyone talks about how great the Bucs offense will be but they still have holes in secondary. Brady can’t play corner.

    Favorite yes, but -175 is way to much IMO

    Any real professional players all over the Tampa Bay buccaneers but many here aren’t their squares

    Woah there, chief. They're not going to be that bad. I don't think they're a 13-3 team, but they're better than a 7-9 team. Too much talent there. Thinking 10-6 or 11-5 is more realistic.

    I expect the Bucs to start strong, It will be tough for Brady to hold up at age 43 all year.

    Brady's ability to read defenses is unmatched. He might be slowin down for an old GOAT but he has seen pretty much every defensive formation known to mankind in football. They got the Saints twice, Rams and Chiefs. Packers won't beat them because Rodgers sucks on the road. The Falcons can be iffy because they started last season like shit but turned it up near the end. I'm saying 11-5. None of their opponents really have top tier defenses.
