Tom Brady’s brief NFL odds stint in Tampa Bay resulted in a Super Bowl win. So the Buccaneers would never trade it for anything. Last season the Bucs had some rebuilding after attempting to run it back with their 2020 championship squad. Now quarterback Baker Mayfield will have a chance to prove himself worthy of another starting job. And Mayfield has several great weapons at his disposal. Still, the Bucs failed to win in Brady’s final season. As a result, gamblers struggle to have faith in the Bucs for the 2023 season.

Due to Tom Brady’s retirement, the national spotlight Tampa has enjoyed has dimmed. With only two prime-time online betting games, the Bucs are entering a “reload” year, as they prefer to call it. Also, there’s been a quarterback shakeup in the NFC South: All four teams in the division will have a new starting quarterback from the previous year. Since 2002, there has not been an instance in any division where all four teams had different opening-game quarterbacks from the previous year.
Gamblers were getting spoiled with Brady vs. Aaron Rodgers three times from 2020-2022. Now, they are left with Jordan Love vs. “TBD” at Lambeau Field in Week 15. Indeed, both teams navigate new respective chapters without all-time greats.
2023 Tampa Bay Buccaneers Offseason Moves
It is true that there is talent on this NFL betting odds roster. Although it is aging. Still, the skill positions are strong. And a lot of that Super Bowl defense remains in place. But the bottom line is that the Buccaneers are banking on Baker Mayfield or Kyle Trask to carry them into the post-Tom Brady Era. That’s a big ask.
Previously, from 2008 through 2019, the Bucs failed to make the playoffs. All of that changed when Tom Brady arrived for the 2020 campaign. Brady led the Bucs to the Super Bowl championship in his first season away from Bill Belichick and the Patriots.
