Buccaneers vs saints score8/12/2023 ![]() The game will be broadcast on ESPN with Joe Buck and Trot Aikman on the call. The Bucs have failed to cover in eight of their last nine while also losing eight of their last nine coming off of an overtime game. The Bucs defense is still holding strong, allowing 18.5 points per game which is 7th best in the league, while the Saints are 21st in the league scoring 20.8 points per game.Īccording to DraftKings Sportsbook, the Buccaneers are four point home favorites with an over/under of 40.5. The Bucs are inexplicably 27th in the NFL in scoring offense, averaging 18.2 points per game while the Saints’ defense is giving up 23.3 points per game - 20th in the NFL.

Of course, the big story coming out of the matchup earlier this season that the Bucs won 20-10 is the ejections of Mike Evans and Marshon Lattimore for the fight that erupted in the second half. The 2022 iteration of the offense isn’t going to give fans the confidence that changes this time around. The Buccaneers entered Week 15 having scored at least 30 points in four straight games. That’s right - Tom Brady and the Bucs have yet to score a touchdown against the Saints at home since his arrival in 2020. In the Tom Brady era, the Bucs have lost to the Saints in Ray Jay by scores of 9-0 and 38-3. The Saints lead the all-time series 39-23 and haven’t lost a game in Tampa since 2017. This is not the marquee matchup we all thought it would be when the schedule dropped in April. ![]() On the other side is the team that has had their number for the better part of a decade and they’re coming off their first shutout loss in over 300 games. The two teams have met each other 63 times (including 1 postseason game), with the New Orleans Saints winning 39 games and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers winning 24. ![]() ![]() No opponent has haunted Tom Brady since his relocation to Tampa Bay quite like the Saints, and that trend continued in Sundays prime-time rematch of NFC South foes.
