Buccaneers vs. Saints 

This will be an NFC South matchup with two teams both in need of a win.  The Buccaneers got their first of the season in week 4 with an upset on the road over the Pittsburgh Steelers.  The Saints are coming off of a trouncing at the hands of the Dallas Cowboys on the road and are looking to bounce back.

The Bucs are a better team on offense with Mike Glennon at quarterback over Josh McCown and they should put some points on the board but the Saints have too much offense and plus they are extremely hard to beat at home.  Saints win.       NFL Picks
