Saints vs. Buccaneers Game Day Thread
 

The New Orleans Saints will look to continue its Brees-less win strike Sunday afternoon when they host the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in their first NFC South conference game of the season.

It'll be another chance for Teddy Bridgewater and co. to build on a hot streak that started two weeks ago with a gutsy win in Seattle, followed by last week's defensive statement in a win over the Dallas Cowboys at home.

The Bucs are coming off a rough season, but boast a new coach in Bruce Arians and new coordinators in Byron Leftwich and Todd Bowles.

Quarterback Jameis Winston is coming off his worst season, but he's also coming off two back-to-back monster games. Will his streak continue?

This is the perfect recipe for a trap game, they need to keep that in mind.

Coming off 2 big wins, against a “lesser” opponent, and with everyone telling you how wonderful you are.

Tread carefully

From earlier thread...

And I'd add Bruce Arians vs Dennis Allen - now we find out if D.A.'s defense performed last week was because of his opponent, Jason Garrett, or if Dennis Allen is finally getting it done consistently in the NFL...

Well we are going to need at least 21 to win this one. Hopefully the line will chill with the penalties and we get to see what TB can really do.

I'm just coming in off the road after refereeing a rugby game in Tallahassee. It was sure hard to get up early this morning for a 12:00 kick off. But I am here all game long. Who Dat!

Re: Saints vs. Buccaneers Game Day Thread
 

You've been saying this for three weeks now. It seems to be based on the fact that because the air yards are short, the plays are ineffective. consider these 4 plays:

1. Kamara's 29 yard TD in the Seattle game.
2. TQS 28 yard play in LA he was injured on
3. Kamara's 18 yard play from the Saints 7 for the first down against Seattle.
4. CGM's TD against Seattle.

Each of these 4 plays contribute to the short air yardage numbers. But each was highly effective.

Now it may be a valid question as to what happens when plays around the LOS are no longer effective and the Saints start to lose games because of it. But it hasn't happened yet, so it really seems like a mountain/molehill type problem in my estimation.

Re: Saints vs. Buccaneers Game Day Thread
 

Oh hell yeah! You guys gotta see this... Demario Davis and Drew Brees together leading the huddle. Amazing!

Re: Saints vs. Buccaneers Game Day Thread
 

Re: Saints vs. Buccaneers Game Day Thread
 

Great start!

Re: Saints vs. Buccaneers Game Day Thread
 

I would have preferred the interception but I'll take a forced punt.

Re: Saints vs. Buccaneers Game Day Thread
 

A near Demario Davis pick and a negated Marcus Williams pick... the INT is strong within Jameis Winston today lol. We’re gonna snag a few.

Re: Saints vs. Buccaneers Game Day Thread
 

There is another Jared cook sighting.

Re: Saints vs. Buccaneers Game Day Thread
 

Re: Saints vs. Buccaneers Game Day Thread
 

Cook is inconsistent and not worth his paycheck.

Re: Saints vs. Buccaneers Game Day Thread
 

And then a Jared Cook drop. :rofl:

Re: Saints vs. Buccaneers Game Day Thread
 

He’s been mediocre his whole career.
