Tampa Bay Buccaneers 3 New Orleans Saints 38
Sunday 8 November 2020 at Raymond James Stadium
NBC COMMENTARY CREW Al Michaels and Cris Collinsworth
When it comes to embarrassing losses, and there are
enough to choose from in franchise history, then this will rank
right up near the top. National TV, the division lead on the
line and the 6-2 Bucs got absolutely manhandled from the
very start. The score was not even as indicative of how one-
sided the entire encounter really was. Tom Brady threw three
interceptions, Drew Brees threw four touchdowns and the
Bucs threw a game down the toilet.
