Buc’s favored by 5.5 point ... Do you believe that?
 

Not being a Homer here but I find this bit over the top even for Vegas line. The Buc’s barley beat The New York Giants.

Yes...after the last couple weeks performances by the Saints, i am surprised it isn't higher to be honest.

Brady is not going to choke

Although I think it’s high,,,,,,the wise guys are pretty good at what they do. And I am a homer. It’s all about a number to stimulate action on the game.

With the way our DB's are playing and how the Bucs embarrassed the Packers a few weeks ago, its probably granted that they open as favourites.

Their D is much better than ours, their offense has the potential to go off.

Pretty believable. Bucs offense is starting to gel and they have a great defense.

This part exactly. The general betting public has totally bought into the media hype that Tampa Bay and Brady are the next world champs. The line is not based upon what the odds makers believe will actually happen. The line is set to generate equal amounts of cash bets on both teams. That's how they make their money. This usually requires giving more points to what is perceived by the public as the weaker team. The professionals love this scenario. I expect that there will be big late money coming in on the Saints.

Line seems about right, Yucs at home against division rival; one of the 2 losses. Saints wins against mediocre teams by 3 points.
Haven't played a complete game since Yucs week 1.

Will have to duplicate that to win tonight.
Win or lose they'll look there best; wearing all white color rush unis.

GEAUX SAINTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Agee with most of your post ... but we have not had OUR FULL Offense since week 1 ... Think this will be a close game if ... if our defense make even the slight improvement in stopping the absolute blown coverages deep the 2 or 3 times norm per game.

Cautiously Optimistic ... Buc’s are not to be taken lightly ... we will see them again this season.
