You can talk about the turnovers, you can talk about the picks, talk about commitment to the run, etc. etc.
It all starts with the line. Both sides are currently sucking A$$, and until that gets fixed it will be up and down for us. But I will say it felt like someone died when Payton went down. I felt panic like I never have before, watching a Saints game. I don't think the team was prepared for that curve ball (obviously). |

I think losing Payton had more of an effect than people realize...

I keep saying that as well -- WHO the heck can prepare for that kind of thing?
And the Bucs scored 17 quick points in the second quarter, exactly when the confusion and uncertainty on the Saints sidelines was at its highest. They capitalized on it. Most teams would have crumbled and folded way worse than the Saints did under those circumstances. The coach gets carted off the field on a gurney, and some people keep acting like it was just a regular ordinary game. It wasn't. |

The vantage point in the booth will be better but that's probably the ony advantage.
