Buccaneers’ Todd Bowles drops ‘bloodbath’ admission on Saints clash after Baker Mayfield’s comments
Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Todd Bowles stood in line with Baker Mayfield, saying the clash with the Saints will be a bloodbath.
Saints' season hangs in the balance. Controlling tempo or offensive meltdowns will dictate their fate against the Buccaneers.
The Saints (1-6) have lost two straight after a win over the Giants. Spencer Rattler entered last week against the Bears having thrown just one interception, but he threw three against Chicago. He'll hope to get back on track to lead New Orleans to an upset and double its season win total.
The Saints, meanwhile, have been more competent than expected offensively, but their defense is a problem — allowing nearly 27 points per game and constantly digging early holes. They’re 2–5 ATS in first halves, which makes Tampa Bay -2.5 in the first half my best bet for the game.
Saints desperately need a win at home against the dominant Buccaneers to reignite a faltering season. Can they overcome their struggles and find a spark?
