The New Orleans Saints are in bounce-back mode going into Sunday's (Sept. 16) home game against the Cleveland Browns. Sean Payton's team was the biggest favorite on the board in Week 1, but the Tampa Bay Buccaneers came into the Mercedes-Benz Superdome and captured a 48-40 win as 9.5-point road underdogs.
Gamblers backing the "over" cashed an easy winner when the 88 combined points catapulted above the 49.5-point total. Tampa Bay hooked up its money-line supporters with a +325 return (paid $325 on $100 bets).
The surprising upset eliminated a good chunk of the field in Survivor Pools -- contests in which participants must choose one team to win outright each week to survive - across the country.
