The Bucs ended their recent regular season hoodoo in New Orleans with a spicy victory that saw most of the scoring done in the final eight minutes. Tom Brady’s scoring pass to Breshad Perriman broke a 3-3 tie and Mike Edwards’ pick six sealed the win as former Buc Jameis Winston threw three interceptions. Mike Evans and Saints CB Marshon Lattimore were ejected in a third quarter fight as tempers escalated but the Bucs went to 2-0 on a pair of road victories for the first time ever.
