Week 13 of the 2022 NFL season comes to a close with a "Monday Night Football" match-up between the New Orleans Saints and Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Neither team is lighting up the league as both enter tonight's game below the .500 line, with the host Buccaneers sporting a 5-6 record and the visiting Saints stuck at 4-8. Fortunately for both teams, they play in the weakest division in the NFL as the Bucs lead the NFC South despite the losing record.
Tampa Bay heads into tonight's game off the back of a frustrating overtime loss to the Browns in which the Bucs threw away a fourth-quarter lead. That ended a two-game win streak that hinted at a turning of the corner for Tom Brady's team.
Meanwhile, the Saints are coming off the embarrassment of being shut out in a 13-0 loss to the 49ers. It's clearly a rebuilding year for New Orleans, but the ignominy of being held scoreless cannot sit well for the Saints, who look to erase that taste of failure tonight while also avenging a defeat to the Bucs earlier this season (a 20-10 TB victory on Sept. 18).
