Tampa Bay Buccaneers (2-12) vs New Orleans Saints (13-1) Preview
The New Orleans Saints are no longer unbeaten, but they can notch another accomplishment if they bounce back with a victory in their next game. The Saints look to secure the NFC’s No. 1 seed on Sunday when they host the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
New Orleans (13-1) saw its quest for a perfect season end with a 24-17 loss to Dallas on Saturday, leaving Indianapolis as the NFL’s only remaining undefeated team.
The Saints’ high-powered offense stalled against the Cowboys, setting season-lows for points and total yards (336). Though he threw for 298 yards with a touchdown, Drew Brees also had an interception, fumbled twice and was sacked four times. After New Orleans scored two fourth-quarter touchdowns, Brees drove the team to midfield in the final minute but was stripped of the ball.
With a win or a Minnesota loss on Monday, the Saints can clinch the top seed in the playoffs for the first time in franchise history. Brees believes a loss now will make the team better in the long run.
The two last met in Week 11 of this Season wherein Mike Bell rushed for 75 yards and two touchdowns as the Saints dropped the Bucs, 38-7. Last week in NFL Week 15, New Orleans suffered its first loss of the season, 24-17, against Dallas while Tampa Bay scored an impressive 24-7 victory in Seattle..
So, let’s all wait and watch Buccaneers vs Saints live Sunday Afternoon.
