Some thoughts on the New Orleans Saints‘ 31-6 victory against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
What it means: They say that water seeks its own level and the Gulf of Mexico got back to its normal balance Sunday as the “slumping’’ Saints looked like champions again and the “red-hot’’ Buccaneers no longer looked like the surprise team of the season. With Atlanta losing to Philadelphia, the Saints and Falcons each are 4-2 and the Buccaneers are 3-2, but you can see the NFC South probably will be a two-team race.
