Game 2 of the preseason in the NFL continues with some interesting matchups on Saturday, August 20, and here you can take a look at the best Buccaneers vs. Titans betting pick and odds.



Tampa Bay and Tennessee will both try to secure the first win of the preseason when they face at Nissan Stadium, and the Titans are -2.5 favorites on <a href="https://www.bangthebook.com/sportsbooks/betdsi/">BetDSI Sportsbook</a>, while the total is set at 38.5 points. These inter-conference rivals have met a year ago in the preseason and the Titans won that game 34-3 in Tampa.



Bucs to play without Brady



The Tampa Bay Buccaneers will be without their star quarterback Tom Brady on Saturday. Brady left the camp last week and took a 10-day break for personal reasons, which means that his deputies Kyle Trask and Blaine Gabbert will play under the center.



Trask had 25 completions for 258 yards with a touchdown and interception in a 26-24 loss to the Miami Dolphins in Week 1 of the preseason. Tampa Bay collected 314 yards through the air despite playing without their best receivers, so we can expect to see another solid passing display from the Buccaneers in this one.



Byron Leftwich will be responsible for offensive calls this season and we already saw a strong offense from Tampa Bay in the opener, so even without Brady on Saturday, the visitors should be fine on offense. Their defense could do better, though, and if Joe Tryon-Shoyinka and Logan Hall get some playing time against Tennessee, that D will definitely improve.



Titans to cut roster after the game



The Tennessee Titans trimmed their roster from 90 to 85 on Tuesday, and following this game against Tampa Bay, that number will go down to 80. That said, a lot of players will be motivated to show their worth to head coach Mike Vrabel as it will be a make-it-or-break-it for some.



The Titans suffered a 23-10 defeat to the Baltimore Ravens last week after having a 10-7 lead in the second quarter. Their offense was out of sync for the most part of the tilt, and some reports are saying that Tennessee’s wide receivers experienced a tough time in training sessions, particularly in one-on-one situations.



Malik Willis, who scored the Titans’ lone touchdown in the loss to the Ravens, will likely get a starting nod against Tampa Bay. He also added 107 passing yards on just six completions, so as long he stays on the field, the Titans have a chance to compete with the Bucs.



Trends:



Tennessee:



<ul><li>3-8 ATS in the last 11 Saturday games</li></ul>



Tampa Bay:



<ul><li>7-3 ATS in the last ten games overall</li><li>The home team is 4-1 ATS in the last five H2H meetings</li></ul>



Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs. Tennessee Titans Pick&nbsp;&nbsp;



It was an uninspiring offensive performance from the Titans in Week 1 of the preseason, and I expect them to bounce back here. However, I don’t think they will drastically improve, especially if Vrabel decides to take Malik Willis off the field early. It looks like Willis has what it takes to lead the offense but it seems that Vrabel is a bit impatient with the rookie quarterback. On the other hand, the Bucs played well on offense without Brady and will continue to do so on Saturday. I am backing them to cover in what should be a one-possession game.



Pick: Take the Buccaneers +2.5 at -110



The Total



I said I expect to see a better display from Tennessee’s offense in this one but I don’t expect miracles. They should score more than ten points they had against Baltimore, but current issues with wide receivers will not help the hosts here. The total went Under in each of the Titan’s last five home games, while Under is 8-3 in the Buccaneers’ previous 11 games on grass. The last H2H duel produced 37 points, and I expect to see a similar outcome on Saturday but it’s not going to be a 34-3 victory for Tennessee this time around.



Pick: Go Under 38.5 points at -110

New York Knicks vs Utah Jazz Betting Pick & Prediction 11/23/24

We have 16 games on the MLB schedule for Saturday, August 13, including this National League duel, and here you can see the best Padres vs. Nationals betting pick and odds.



San Diego and Washington will play the second of a three-game series at Nationals Park, and the Padres are -270 moneyline favorites on <a href="https://www.bangthebook.com/sportsbooks/bookmaker/">BookMaker Sportsbook</a>, while the total is set at 9.5 runs. These National League rivals haven’t met this season before this series. Game 1 will be played on Friday night.



Padres won the series against the Giants



The San Diego Padres were on a five-game losing run and opened the divisional rivalry series against the San Francisco Giants with a loss, but responded with two wins to close it. During that losing stretch, the Padres failed to score in two games in a row, which is shocking considering a star-studded lineup they have.&nbsp;&nbsp;



Nevertheless, in two wins over San Francisco, San Diego scored 20 runs. Interestingly, they needed only two innings to score 13 in a 13-7 victory over the Giants. Brandon Drury had four RBIs and scored two runs, while Austin Nola and Manny Machado combined for five RBIs. Sean Manaea (6-6) pitched for five innings in a no-decision, allowing three runs on six hits with four strikeouts and a walk. Roberts Suarez was credited with his third win of the season.



Yu Darvish (10-5) is getting his 22nd start of the year when he faces the Nationals on Saturday. The 35-year-old right-hander owns a 3.28 ERA, 1.00 WHIP, and a 132/26 K/BB ratio across 134.1 innings of work.



Nationals continued to struggle



The Washington Nationals will likely finish the season with the worst record in the entire MLB as their rebuilding process began following Juan Soto and Josh Bell’s trade to the Padres. The Nats’ struggles continued in the second half of the season and after being swept by the Phillies, they lost the series to the Chicago Cubs.



Washington had a 2-0 lead after the first six innings in the most recent game against the Cubs on the road, but Chicago responded with four runs in the 7th to secure a 4-2 victory. Power-hitting rookie Joey Meneses blasted a solo home run, his fourth of the campaign for the Nationals. Josiah Gray (7-8) was solid in 6.1 innings, surrendering two runs on seven hits with five strikeouts and no walks, while Steve Cishek took his third save of the year.



Anibal Sanchez (0-5) will start on the mound for the sixth time this season and is still looking for his first victory. The 38-year-old righty has a 7.56 ERA, 1.56 WHIP, and an 18/11 K/BB ratio in 25.0 innings. Sanchez didn’t meet the Padres since 2018.



Trends:



San Diego:



<ul><li>7-1 in the last eight games vs. a right-handed starter</li><li>5-2 in the last seven during game 2 of a series</li></ul>



Washington:



<ul><li>14-38 in the last 52 overall</li><li>16-37 in the last 53 Saturday games</li></ul>



San Diego Padres vs. Washington Nationals Pick&nbsp;&nbsp;



The Padres are in the race for the postseason, unlike the Nationals, who are having a losing season and are already turning to the next one. That said, I expect the visitors to win not only this game but also the series. Anibal Sanchez is not pitching well this year, and he will have a tough job against San Diego who is averaging .240 against righties and scoring 4.52 runs per nine innings. Yu Darvish didn’t allow more than three runs in each of his six starts (3-1 in that span) and I am backing the Japanese ace to get another W on Saturday.



Pick: Take the Padres -2.5 Run Line at +100



The Total



I mentioned San Diego’s batters who scored 20 runs in two games against San Francisco. I am pretty sure they will score 5+ runs here without trouble, but I am not convinced with this new-look Washington offense against Darvish. Only because of the Nationals’ 26th offense, I am going with Under. Under is 4-1 in the Nationals’ last five vs. National League West rivals, while Under is 9-4 in the Padres' previous 13 Saturday games.



Pick: Go Under 9.5 runs at -130
