Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs New Orleans Saints: Match Prediction, Injury Report & Players to watch out for

Published by

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers led by Tom Brady will face the New Orleans Saints in week 2 in an NFC South showdown.

Tom Brady led the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to victory in their season opener against the Dallas Cowboys. Now they have to face their division opponents, the New Orleans Saints, who are no pushovers.

The New Orleans Saints beat the Atlanta Falcons in their opening game of the season. The Saints were in a hole, but they dug themselves out of it by scoring 17 points in the last frame to seal the victory.

The Saints are the team that has given Tom Brady the most trouble since he arrived in Tampa Bay, so this should be an intriguing game. The New Orleans Saints are another squad that has made significant summer improvements and now poses a formidable threat to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Player to watch out for in Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs New Orleans Saints

  • Mike Evans – Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Mike Evans will undoubtedly be the player to watch in this game. Coming against a Saints’ defense that struggled against the Falcons, Evans could be up for a big game. He already had a touchdown in the game against the Cowboys, and we can expect a similar outing for him in this game as well.

Match Prediction & Telecast Details:

We anticipate a resounding victory for Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers over their division rivals, the New Orleans Saints, despite the fact that they have had trouble with them the past two seasons.

The Buccaneers’ defense may be the difference in this game after their recent victory against the Dallas Cowboys, in which they allowed only three points. The Saints were also struggling against the considerably lesser Falcons rather than the superior Bucs.

  • Tampa Bay Buccaneers to win the game and cover -2.5 points against the New Orleans Saints.
