If you thought the New Orleans Saints had a win over Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 1, you were proved dead wrong on Sunday night, when Sean Payton, Drew Breeze and the charge-up New Orleans defense laid waste. Their NFC South rivals are on a much more one-sided route. Brian got to throw Antonio Brown in the Bucks uniform for the first time, but if you’re a fan of Tampa Bay, the only encouragement coming from the Week 9 divisional remake was that Bruce performed almost flawlessly as Brad D. And the Bucks stumbled early on to end up in the visiting Saints-3 38–3 win.
How much damage was done to the books? Well, it was the biggest loss of Brady’s career, topping the Buffalo Bills in 2003 at the top of his 31-0 list. Brady also posted the worst QB rating of his career in four-scatter 17 years ago, and when he failed to surpass his extraordinary performance in his three-interception performance on Sunday night, his 40.4 QB rating was the third-worst game of his career (second in 2006). Is behind a four-pick game where Brad de Patriots lost 27-22).
The New Orleans reached the top of the NFC South with a win, but completed a clean sweep of Bruce Arians and the Buccaneers, who were being hailed as top contenders at the convention.
Here are some instant gifts from a Sunday night affair:
Why the saints won
His offense started to heat up, maintain balance and capitalize on every turn. It’s Drew Bryce & Co. Had an almost flawless performance, and he’s saying something, given Michael Thomas’ long-awaited return, that he only found the No. 1 wide 50 yards before entering the final quarter. The New Orleans spread the ball very well this way and look, see that Thomas didn’t need to be a star, to ensure a 31-point lead, with each position group from the Biries literally reserving fielding darts. By halftime.
Tessam Hill? Legal weapon in almost every place. Emanuel Sanders? Stable and reliable. Alvin Camara? Quiet, by its standards, but productive. It was an easy night to finish from the start, and the New Relians didn’t miss a chance to turn the takeaway into a point early on.
The defense, of course, was just as impressive, with studs like Marshan Lettimore, owner Olum Jenkins and Demario Davis eventually uniting to show the potential of the saints on that side of the ball. Trey Hendrixon eats the edge during a home run. Davis and Jenkins fill holes during the red-zone stand. Latimore Blackted Mike Evans. Everyone did their part. The whole team was super bowl-caliber.
Why Bukaniro lost
With all the hype coming into the game Tampa Bay (somewhat fairly) Antonio Brown already joined the stacked cast featuring Tom Brady, Mike Evans, Chris Godwin and Rob Gronkowski, the books were absolutely stunned with the ball in their hands. And he’s putting in a little bit.
Brad D was under a bit more pressure than you wanted to see, but he was working incorrectly as early as possible to help dig a hole in the Tampa Bay and, more importantly, floating a deep ball like a punt. Which finally gave the saints an easy takeaway. It was clear all night that Brady’s time was off with almost every receiver, but that’s the whole package’s charge.
This What does Bruce Arians have to offer in midseason? If you know Brady is not ready to join his prowess in the expansion of the Pro Bowl, you couldn’t give more than Ronald Jones Three Handoffs? What a vague failure. Defensively, Tampa wasn’t nearly as bad, but for one reason the score was still ugly. The Bucks put most of the plays in front of them but struggled hard against the ground where the absence of the Vita vehicle was clearly felt.
Turn
The Saints controlled the game with a go-go, but the turn was very clear Non-turn Which was an early disaster for the books. Driving in the red zone to go for a possible two scores after already marching 65 yards on their opening TD series, the Saints gave Tampa Bay a first-quarter chance at redemption, while Jared Cook’s second attempt on a second-down catch caused a fuss, by Lavonte David Pun. .Received.
What did Bucks do with his gift possession? Three plays. Two yard pont. That, friends, confirmed the harsh reality: Tampa Bay wasn’t ready to take away the offensive grief of its early game, let alone a shootout with the Saints.
Play the game
In possession of pretty much every Bucs we were given good clips of the Saints defense, but what about Emanuel Sanders ’efforts to grab a diving TD to give New Orleans a 21-0 lead in the first half?
What’s next
The Buccaneers (6-3) will return to the NFC South in the 10th week, when they will visit the Carolina Panthers (3-6), who battled the Chiefs on Sunday. The Saints (-2-6), meanwhile, will return home for the afternoon start-down with the Buttered Dead San Francisco 49ers (4-5), giving the Packers extra rest after losing Thursday night.
