Bucs vs. Saints BETTING PREDICTION
Take the Over. I really like this play, I know Spencer Rattler will be making his first career start, but Rattler had a strong preseason and shown the ability to throw the football throughout his career. He also has plenty of playmakers to help him out. On the other side, Baker Mayfield has had a great start to the season and I expect that to continue in perfect conditions of the superdome. These defenses have struggled lately, give me the over all day here.
