The New Orleans Saints (5-2) travel to Tampa Bay (2-5) for an important showdown this Sunday against the Buccaneers. Those on the outside will most likely look at the records and make a premature decision on the game based strictly on the records of the two teams.

The team from Tampa began the season on a rough note, losing at home to the Baltimore Ravens, 27-0. The next week they ventured into the hostile Georgia Dome and lost 14-3 to the 'Dirty Birds.' They then returned home to face the 0-2 Carolina Panthers and were narrowly edged, 26-24. Following a hard-fought battle that see-sawed throughout, they were defeated by your very own Saints, 24-21, at the Louisiana Superdome on October 8.
