Tampa Bay Buccaneers Betting Odds
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers made the bold move to sign Tom Brady before the 2020 season began and the Bucs were rewarded, as Brady led them to a win in Super Bowl LV over the Kansas City Chiefs. The GOAT won his 7th Super Bowl title, and he did it without his former head coach Bill Belichick. Brady threw three touchdown passes, two to Rob Gronkowski, and the Bucs routed the Chiefs by a score of 31-9 to win Super Bowl LV. Tampa Bay didn’t have it easy in the playoffs, as they had to win road games against New Orleans and Green Bay to make it to the Super Bowl. The Bucs are listed at 10-1 in early Super Bowl LVI odds.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers Season Recap
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers began the 2020 regular season with a new quarterback under center in Tom Brady and a lot of optimism. The Bucs had a very tough road opener and they fell 24-23 to the New Orleans Saints. The Bucs bounced back to rout Carolina in Week 2 and Denver in Week 3 and Tampa Bay also won in Week 4, as they outscored the Los Angeles Chargers 38-31. Tampa suffered a 20-19 loss to Chicago in Week 5 but they bounced back with a very impressive 38-10 win over Green Bay in Week 6. The Bucs rolled over the Raiders in Week 7 and then they had a letdown in Week 8 but they still found a way to win over the New York Giants.
The Bucs season started to unravel a little bit in Week 9, as they were routed 38-3 at home by the Saints. Tampa did bounce back in Week 10 to rout the Panthers, but it was obvious the team was tired, as they lost 27-24 to the Rams in Week 11 and 27-24 to the Chiefs in Week 12. The Bucs had a much-needed Bye in Week 13 and the team used that Bye to refocus and they didn’t lose another game all season. They rolled over the Vikings 26-14 in Week 14, outscored the Falcons 31-27 in Week 15, routed the Lions 47-7 in Week 16 and they wrapped up the season with a 44-27 rout of Atlanta.
Tampa had to go the Wild Card route in the playoffs and they were able to get past Washington on the road in their first game. The Bucs then played the Saints for the third time this season and they found a way to win on the road, winning 30-20 in the Divisional Round. The Bucs had a very tough road game at Lambeau Field in the NFC Championship Game but they scored enough points and got some help from poor coaching on the Green Bay side and Tampa pulled out a 31-26 win.
Tampa was listed as a 3-point underdog against the Chiefs in Super Bowl LV even though the game was being played in Tampa. The Bucs defense harassed Kansas City quarterback Patrick Mahomes throughout Super Bowl LV and Brady threw three touchdown passes in a 31-9 win.
