Stephen Nover's Saints-Bucs Sunday Night Blockbuster
(NFL) New Orleans vs. Tampa Bay,
Point Spread: -11.00 | -110.00 Tampa Bay (Home)
Result: Loss
Much has changed since the Saints beat the Buccaneers, 31-27, back on Oct. 31. None of it good for New Orleans.

The Saints are going to be minus their two star offensive tackles. Sean Payton also is unavailable.

New Orleans has become a run-option team after losing Jameis Winston in that win against the Buccaneers. The Bucs are extremely hard to run on ranking No. 3 in rush defense.

The Buccaneers are 6-0 at home. They are healthier than the Saints and have revenge. Tom Brady is having one of his greatest seasons leading the NFL in pass completions, attempts, yards and TD's with 36.

The Saints don't have enough depth in their secondary to defend all of Brady's stud targets. Being a run-oriented team now the Saints also lack the firepower to hang with the Buccaneers, nor get a backdoor cover.
