San Francisco 49ers Open as Betting on NFL Dogs at Bucs

San Francisco 49ers vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Last season was a great lesson on how teams and players can be easily overrated. Because of winning a few meaningless games at the end of 2017 San Francisco was a trendy pick for 2018 success. Furthermore, quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo was being touted as the savior of the 49ers. Garoppolo didn’t last three games before he was lost for the year due to injury. Most important of all San Francisco was outed as a betting on NFL fraud. A lot of gamblers were left holding an empty bag. Meanwhile Tampa Bay lost big as expected in 2018.

Bucs Begin New Era with Season Opener

At the onset of the 2019 season is the hopes of a new era at Tampa Bay. Former Cardinals coach Bruce Arians came out of retirement to lead the Bucs. Arians can lay claim to being one of the few head coaches to escape Arizona with a winning record. Indeed, he departed with a mark of 49-30-1 with two playoff seasons. Arians takes over one of the least appealing teams for betting on NFL with. Last season Tampa Bay finished 5-11 straight up and 8-7-1 vs. the odds. He will be immediately tasked improving the consistency of quarterback Jameis Winston.

Fools Gold

Kyle Shanahan returns for his third year as head coach of the 49ers. Accordingly the 2018 season was a strain on the son of NFL coaching legend Mike Shanahan. San Francisco finished 4-12 straight up and 5-11 vs. the line in 2018. Following a 6-10 season in 2017 it was a marked disappointment. The Garoppolo injury was hardly the only reason for the Niners demise. Consider San Francisco ranked 28th in the NFL for points allowed. Of great concern for 2019 is how effective Garoppolo will be after recovery from the knee injury.

Five of their last seven in that situation have gone over the total. In the same way the Buccaneers have been in the red at Raymond James Stadium. Tampa Bay has paid in just three of their last seven home games. Five of their last six in that place have stayed under the number.
