Expert Betting Tips

The fact that Brady has been winless in regular-season games versus New Orleans since joining the Buccaneers will serve as the game's central plot point. Ultimately, a Jared Cook fumble helped Brady upset them in the playoffs. Dennis Allen's defense recorded a shutout against Brady for the first time in his career last season. The Orleans has been unstoppable in their last five matchups, winning four of those five despite being heavy underdogs. For that reason, we anticipate a close contest.
