On Sunday afternoon, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (1-3) will hope that their underwhelming pass defense will be able to stop the dominant passing attack of the New Orleans Saints (1-3). Last year, the Saints won both of their games against the Bucs.

The Buccaneers were able to outscore the Pittsburgh Steelers 10-0 in the fourth quarter of their game on Sunday to pull off a 27-24 comeback win. The Bucs has just 63 rushing yards in the game, but they were 7-for-13 on third down opportunities.

The Bucs are currently the worst passing team in the league with just 194.3 yards per game. Third-year running back Bobby Rainey has averaged 4.9 yards per carry this season and he leads the team with two rushing touchdowns. Wide receiver Mike Evans has caught 17 passes this year for 203 yards and one touchdown.

On Monday night, the Saints had a hard time slowing down the Dallas Cowboys' offense and ended up losing 38-17 on the road. New Orleans did put up 438 yards in the loss, but they also turned the ball over three times.

The Saints have rushed for 131.3 yards per game, which is 10th in the NFL. Quarterback Drew Brees is currently third in the NFL in passing yards with 1,203 and he has thrown seven touchdown passes with three interceptions. Tight end Jimmy Graham has caught 32 passes through four games for 340 yards and three scores.
