00:00I have not seen updated injury reports in terms of the New Orleans Saints but

00:09we got the Tampa Bay Bucs taking on the Saints another in-division battle here

00:13when it comes to comparing healthy rosters unfortunately it seems like both

00:17teams are equally as banged up you have a number of guys defensively that were

00:21banged up for the Bucs and then obviously some pieces falling apart for

00:24the offense for the Saints three and a half spread 41 and a half total what do

00:28we see in this matchup well Spencer Rattler has been named the starting

00:35quarterback for the Saints they're going to be without Derek Carr for a couple of

00:40weeks I gotta say under 41 and a half it has to be the play we the Saints their

00:46offense was struggling in that game against the Chiefs when Carr was in

00:50there we've kind of said oh did something happen with the Saints they

00:53got off to a super high start the flip has the script has kind of flipped on

00:57them in recent weeks with Rattler at the helm I do not have confidence in

01:01them scoring I'm looking to the under in this game the under on the Saints on

01:04their team total and you know what we talked about with your Bucs got it got a

01:09phrase it like that we're coming off a loss which like it was it wasn't a good

01:12game end of the game for them right so they've had this extra time since it was

01:16last Thursday to kind of get things under control get a little bit healthier

01:19it is a divisional game which they would like to pick up after losing the last

01:23one kind of got a lock-in on this game and win it against what is a third

01:27string quarterback remember Rattler did not come to the game when Derek Carr got

01:31hurt so this is a third string rookie quarterback making his first ever start

01:36against the divisional opponent it's got to be the Bucs in this one they got to

01:40come away with like a clean win absolutely clean and cut win I mean to

01:45have the bad taste in their mouth after falling short to the Falcons to have

01:48that hand that have that game in hand and feel that kind of loss this needs to

01:53be an epic punch in the mouth to the Saints no offense to them and the

01:56injuries that they have rattled off still pretty strong defense so I do

01:59agree with you I like the under on this one because with the Bucs being in full

02:02control or as much control as I'm anticipating and hoping they will be in

02:06you're looking at an inability to score for the Saints for the most part and

02:09even if the Bucs ramp it up shouldn't be touching close to a 41 and a half total

02:13we'll see how things bear off there obviously Bucs off got to New Orleans

02:17early because of the hurricane hopefully everyone who has family in Florida your

02:20family is safe after what just took place down in Florida last night but

02:24that gave them some extra time and legs on the ground to not be flying so

02:28closely either something else that can help pan out for them
