The Tampa Bay Buccaneers hope to get their putrid 2022 offense back on track in a big game vs. the New Orleans Saints on Monday Night Football this evening at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa.

After Tom Brady led the NFL in passing yards by more than 300 a season ago, tossing for a league-leading 43 touchdowns, the 45-year old has just 14 on the season, tied with his counterpart in tonight's game in Andy Dalton.

Despite both teams' struggles and under .500 record, there's still several ways to bet tonight's matchup, including parlaying multiple bets together into a same-game-parlay.

Ahead of combining several favorites into one, let's first check out the latest odds for tonight's matchup:

Best Monday Night Football Same Game Parlay Picks for Saints vs. Buccaneers

  • UNDER 48.5 (alternate) Total Points (-320)
  • Chris Godwin OVER 49.5 (alternate) Receiving Yards (-260)
  • Chris Godwin Anytime TD Scorer (+180)
  • Alvin Kamara OVER 24.5 (alternate) Receiving Yards (-154)

UNDER 48.5 Total Points (Alternate)

If you read my betting prediction for tonight's NFC South showdown, you'd know I'm on the UNDER at 41.5 already. By moving it to 48.5, I'll give our parlay a little extra breathing room with seven more points available to hit the under on.

These teams have been a trainwreck offensively for much of the year. The Bucs are completely one-dimensional on offense, ranked dead-last in the NFL in rushing success, while the Saints are coming off a shutout loss to the San Francisco 49ers, and rank bottom 10 in in yards/play and bottom 3 in points/play in their last three games.

Chris Godwin OVER 49.5 Receiving Yards (Alternate)

There's no receiver on the field that Tom Brady appears to trust more than Godwin, who's seen double digit targets in all but three games he's played in 2022.

His best game of the season came in Week 12, catching 12 of 13 targets for 110 yards and a touchdown against the Cleveland Browns, while playing 66 of the 69 snaps.

When you consider that Godwin has been targeted just under one out of every six snaps he's been on the field, along with the Bucs' throwing the ball more than any team in the league, he's hard to justify not playing Godwin here, especially at a discounted number.

Chris Godwin Anytime TD Scorer

More targets and receptions lead to more scoring opportunities, and Godwin's odds have already started to climb the books throughout the day to find his way into the end zone.

With the exception of their 16-13 win back on November 6 vs. the L.A. Rams, Godwin has seen red zone targets in every game this year. He's also seen two in his last two games and caught both of them for scores.

With a target share approaching 27%, as well as seeing more than 11 on average per game, I'll believe in Godwin to find the end zone in his third straight outing.

Alvin Kamara OVER 24.5 Receiving Yards (Alternate)

I was fortunate enough to get on this number as an individual prop at PointsBet on Sunday evening when our Saints-Bucs props article was released, but with it moving past 30, 24.5 is now the alternate number on the board to wrap up our parlay.

The Bucs' have been significantly better lately vs. running backs, and have also looked outstanding in stopping pass catching running backs as well this year. However, Andy Dalton needs to get the ball out quickly, and Kamara's availability as a check down nearby is worth buying low on.

Kamara's receptions, targets and yards have each gone up every game since the start of November, and if he breaks a run into the Bucs' secondary, he could pass this number on one play!
