Tampa Bay Buccaneers Week 2 preview: New Orleans Saints

Here is a look at the second game of the 2022 season for the Buccaneers as they face off against the New Orleans Saints in a tough matchup.

Today, the Tampa Straight Marauders will be taking on the New Orleans Holy people in New Orleans in a battle of 1-0 groups hoping to early assume control over the NFC South.

The Saints, like Tampa, won their first game of the season, but they did it in a 1-point, come from WAY behind victory against Atlanta. They came back from 16 points down in the start of the fourth quarter, but let’s be honest, they should have never been down if we are comparing their talent level to Atlanta’s. The profoundly promoted Holy people protection surrendering 26 focuses and 420 all out yards presumably stunned certain individuals.

Some way or another however, regardless of what circumstance the Holy people are in, they generally appear to be prepared for Tampa Sound.

Do you realize it has been almost 4 YEARS since the Bucs have beat the saints in a regular season matchup? The Saints have taken the last 7 straight games in this divisional rivalry. The last game we played against them Tampa Bay actually got shut out entirely. We can not look past this game and expect an easy win because nothing is guaranteed in this game.

Indeed, because of wounds along our hostile line and their demonstrated pass rush capacity, our hostile course of action will probably be based on laying out the run, short to medium passes, and incidental profound shots where we keep our running backs adjacent to Brady to impede.

I know that’s not the most exciting gameplay in the world, but these guys generate a lot of pressure and use that to create turnovers, and with our depleted offensive line, we have to play smart. Keeping Tom Brady upright is not only key to this game, but our season hinges on it. The good thing about that, is that is exactly where Atlanta’s offense excelled against the Saints.

Cordarelle Patterson had the option to break free for 120 yards, averaging 5.5 yards per convey. On the off chance that our running backs can see comparable achievement, we realize Brady can be deadly helping through his movements rapidly and diagnosing a safeguard. Our greatest key will have the option to support the security around Brady, especially assuming that his blindside defender, Donovan Smith, can’t go because of the elbow he sprained in last week’s down against Dallas.

While their offense is on the field, a lot will depend on the playing status of their top running back Alvin Kamara, who is dealing with a rib injury after their win over Atlanta. Kamara is a game changer that the New Orleans offense can run through both in the run game, and as an option receiving the ball out of the backfield. If Kamara is unable to play, or is limited, the Saints will likely turn to Mark Ingram II, along with utilizing Taysom Hill in some versatile ways to get the offense going. It is also worth noting that they did just sign Latavius Murray to their practice squad.

We are all around familiar to their quarterback, Jamies Winston. Winston as a quarterback is high gamble and high prize, however he dealt with the ball pretty well in Week One. His top objective in the primary week was not the excellent veteran Michael Thomas, it was not the potential breakout newbie Chris Olave… . It was really Jarvis Landry, who came over from the Cleveland Earthy colors. Our guard should truly zero in on putting on the strain to compel Jamies into committing errors.

Our secondary should be able to keep up with the Saints receivers, just as they did against the Cowboys in a masterful Week One performance, so applying pressure and stopping the run will be key to making their offense press into bad decisions, leading to turnover opportunity.

Will our pass rush be capable? As displayed in the tweeted realistic beneath, Shaq Barrett had the most elevated pass rush win rate % in the association last week… . So you know he will be prepared!
