New Orleans Saints - NFL Betting Analysis

In week 12, the New Orleans Saints dropped their NFC matchup against the 49ers by a score of 13-0. In terms of betting, New Orleans not only lost the game but failed to cover the spread as an 8.5-point underdog. Together, the two teams combined score remained below the over-under betting line of 43. The Saints were not able to make a comeback in last week's game, as they trailed San Francisco by a score of 13-0 heading into the final quarter. Through 12 games, the Saints have an ATS record of 4-8. So far, they have an over-under record of 6-6. This week's betting total of 40.0 is slightly lower than the line in their previous games.

Heading into this week's matchup, the Saints offense is averaging 20.8 points per game, placing them 21st in the NFL. This week, the team is matched up against the league's 7th-ranked defense, look for New Orleans to have a below-average performance compared to their usual offensive output. Even though New Orleans is averaging 234.1 yards per game through the air, we expect them to struggle against a defensive unit that is 3rd in sack percentage. Gaining traction on the ground could also prove difficult, as the team is 22nd in rush yards per game at 113.2 yards per contest.

 

Tampa Bay Buccaneers - NFL Betting Analysis

Heading into week 13, the Buccaneers will look to get back in the win column, as they are coming off a 23-17 loss to the Cleveland Browns. Tampa Bay lost the game, even though they entered the game as -3.5 point favorite. The team's combined scoring of 40 points fell below the posted betting line of 42. This was a difficult loss for Tampa Bay, as they held 7 point lead heading into the 4th quarter. Through 11 games, the Buccaneers have an ATS record of 3-7-1. So far, they have an over-under record of 2-9. This week's betting total of 40.0 is lower than the line in their previous games.

As the Buccaneers prepare to take on New Orleans, they are ranked 27th in points per game at 18.18. Look for the team to put together a strong offensive performance vs a Saints defense giving up 28.0 points per game. In the passing attack, the Buccaneers head into the game averaging 266 yards per game through the air. This week, they are facing off against a secondary that is ranked 18th in passer rating allowed. So far, the rushing game has not been an emphasis for the team, as they are 31st in rushing attempts, leading to a per-game average of just 73 yards.

 

Today's NFL Betting Pick - Saints vs. Buccaneers

New Orleans comes into the game looking to continue their recent success over Tampa Bay, as they have won 2 of their last 3 matchups. The over-under record in these games sits at 1-2, with the average scoring total coming in at 34.0 points. In game 1 of this year's series between the two teams, the Buccaneers came away with a 10-20 win over the Saints. In addition to picking up the win, the Buccaneers covered the spread as -4.0 point favorites.
