[251] Is the New Orleans game a REVENGE game?!?
Who wants revenge more: Sean Payton, Jameis Winston, or the Buccaneers?
Sean Payton's franchise quarterback got retired by the Bucs.
Jameis Winston is facing his former team for the first time as a starter.
The Buccaneers were swept by the Saints in the regular season last year, and while they exacted their revenge in the playoffs, was it enough? Or does the Buccaneers defense want a piece of Jameis as payback for all the games that he lost them?
Jameis plays a very different role as quarterback of the Saints. He's throwing the ball significantly less than he did with the Bucs. Could you argue he's a game manager?
Should this game go wonky and the Bucs lose (doubtful), it will not have as big as an impact on the Bucs as the second game will. We'll still have a chance for revenge later on in the season. And there's no question the Bucs will make it into the playoffs, so our chances may be hurt by a loss, but not completely dashed.
