This was a true hammering as Josh Freeman was intercepted four times and the Saints racked up one of the biggest defeats the Bucs had ever suffered. "This is unacceptable," said Greg Schiano, whose team had 386 yards of offense (76 on the final drive). "I know that. It's my name, the organization's name. We don't do that, so we've got to get it right."
