The Saints are one of the only teams that have beaten the Brady Era Tampa Bay Buccaneers consistently. Brady got them earlier this season, 20-10, but Winston threw three picks in that game, and Dalton won't do that. The fact that Dalton is more careful with the ball is probably why Coach Dennis Allen is sticking with him at QB. The Buccaneer's struggles have been evident all season, and now they will be without several critical players on defense (or at least they will not be fully healthy if they play). More troubling for the BUCS, the best lineman Tristan Wirfs the left tackle, is out. The Saints can get pressure on Brady. Tom doesn't play well with pressure on his face. The Bucs may win, but this will be a struggle and close. The play is Saints plus 3.5.
