It’s good to be back.
The New Orleans Saints, behind the play of Drew Brees, Alvin Kamara, Jared Cook, a stifling defense and excellent special teams play, were able to hand Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers their first loss of the 2020 NFL season. It was a complete game for the Saints as the offense took some time to get moving but the Saints defense - and special teams - were able to propel New Orleans to a victory.
The Saints were able to force the national media to pump the breaks a bit on the Tom-pa Bay Hype Train after handing the Buccaneers a 34-23 loss in the Dome, and here are some of the best reactions from #SaintsTwitter after the game:
Saints win! 34-32 over the Buccaneers.

Mike Evans had one reception Sunday and it came on a play starting at 2:46 of the fourth quarter. According to @NextGenStats, Marshon Lattimore lined up against Evans a team-high 29 times, and limited him to 0 receptions on two targets as the nearest defender.

Y’all can complain about Drew all you want, but he never misses the chance to spend time with his fans pic.twitter.com/uEOvGuQva3

No shame in losing at NO if you’re Tampa, especially with having a FG blocked & giving up a Pick 6. Run game & defense looked really good.

The Bucs are just a quarterback away from being a real contender.
Maybe they’ll get one in the draft next year.

Tom Brady looked like he had better chemistry with Janoris Jenkins than Rob Gronkowski - per @getnickwright pic.twitter.com/WB3nKBK4ZL
