It’s taken five long years and a move away from the New England Patriots, but Tom Brady is finally an underdog again. The new Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback isn’t forecast to win his Week 1 game against the New Orleans Saints, breaking a 74-game regular season streak of being favored by oddsmakers. The last team favored to beat him were Rex Ryan’s 2015 Buffalo Bills, favored at home by a single point (Brady’s Patriots won, 40-32).
That’s backed up by the BetMGM Sportsbook, which has the Saints as 3.5-point favorites. Taken with their over/under of 49.
