The Saints are preparing to take down the Tom Brady led Bucs for the 3rd time this year Sunday at 5:40 PM.
The Saints defense suffocated Brady in the previous two regular-season contests, holding the Bucs to 13 points a game and picking the future Hall of Famer off five times. Brady has a lot of respect for the New Orleans defense.
Happy birthday Drew Brees, the Saints legend turned 42 today and looking forward to playing against the 43-year-old Brady. He says he expected they’d be facing off in a win or go home game…
Also playing this weekend: the Rams and Packers, Browns and Chiefs, and the Ravens and Bills.
