Two of the all-time great quarterbacks of the NFL square off on "Sunday Night Football" as Tom Brady's Tampa Bay Buccaneers host Drew Brees and the New Orleans Saints.
Brady and Brees are Nos. 1 and 2 in career touchdown passes, respectively, and have traded the record between each other several times this season already. The pair will likely take turns holding the record on Sunday as they lead high-powered offences that have boosted the Bucs and Saints into the top two spots in the NFC South.
Of course, it's not just about the two veteran QBs as both teams are enjoying successful seasons thus far. The Saints (5-2) ride a four-game winning streak into Sunday, with the most recent three victories each coming by three points. New Orleans has shown an ability to grind out wins that may come in handy against the first-place Bucs.
Tampa Bay's method of victory is usually different, with the Buccaneers (6-2) scoring seemingly at will in most of them. The Bucs have averaged 34.67 points in their six wins while only allowing 18.5 points in those games — so victories for the Florida team tend to be one-sided affairs.
However, the Saints have already claimed victory against the Brady-led Buccaneers. In Week 1, New Orleans ruined Brady's Tampa Bay debut with a convincing 34-23 win, with Brees throwing a pair of touchdown passes. If the Saints can hold their opposition to a similar output on Sunday, it may once again be Brees and co. getting the last laugh.
