New Orleans has made the playoffs four of the last six seasons, averaging 12 regular-season wins in the years they earned berths.
TURNOVER WOES: There are only three teams in the league with a worse takeaway/give-away differential than Tampa Bay's minus-10. The Saints are one of them at minus-11. Brees has thrown for a league-leading 4,671 yards. He has 32 TD passes, but has also thrown 14 interceptions.
Lovie Smith, completing his first season trying to turn the struggling Bucs around, has taken a similar stance. Except a coach in his position would be remiss by not taking one more opportunity to evaluate some young players.

HOME-FIELD DISADVANTAGE?: The Bucs are 0-7 at home, which plays right into the hands of the Saints, who surprisingly have been better on the road than at the Superdome lately. After winning their first three home games, the Saints dropped five straight on their home field. They started poorly on the road, losing four straight, but have won three in a row away from home heading into Sunday.

The Bucs (2-13) will miss the playoffs for the seventh consecutive year. The Saints (6-9) are out, too, after letting the prospect of squeezing into the postseason — despite a losing record — slip away.
"We're going to treat this just like we would the game we played last week. We're going to play who we feel like are the players that give us the best chance to win," Payton said.

PRODUCTIVE TANDEM: Tampa Bay's Mike Evans (63 receptions, 997 yards) and Vincent Jackson (69-991) are on the verge of becoming the first tandem of receivers in franchise history to top 1,000 yards in the same season. It would be Jackson's fourth straight, including all three years he's been with the Bucs.
And while Smith acknowledged the importance of making the most of an impending opportunity to improve the roster,Cheap NFL Shop, he reiterated it's tough to sell current players on anything except preparing to win.

TAMPA, Fla. (AP) — While the Tampa Bay Buccaneers may be accustomed to not having much to play for at this time of year,Wholesale Jerseys Cheap, Drew Brees and the New Orleans Saints are not.

Atlanta or Carolina, who've both had up-and-down years,Cheap Jerseys From China, will wind up winning the division with a sub-.500 record. The puzzling Saints have their own inconsistency to blame.

Brees isn't harping on the disappointment of falling short.
