REPORT: Buccaneers’ Todd Bowles refuses to take Saints lightly in Week 18.THANHDUNG

It seems like the Tampa Bay Buccaneers had a dialed-in effort against the Panthers, especially Baker Mayfield. And that same mindset should carry to Week 18 as head coach Todd Bowles refused to take the Saints lightly.

Baker Mayfield threw for 359 yards and five touchdowns without an interception as the Buccaneers routed the Panthers 48-14 in Week 17. That set the stage for a potential division-clinching win against the lowly Saints. The Buccaneers are the only NFC team to make the playoffs in each of the past four seasons and will try to stretch the streak to five years. They can do it with a win or a tie.

The Saints appear to be no problem. The Buccaneers beat them right and left in the first matchup, a convincing 51-27 decision.

When Atlanta suffered an overtime loss to the Commanders on Sunday night, Tampa Bay regained control of its playoff destiny. All they have to do is brush aside the Saints. However, Bowles said it won’t be easy, according to tampabay.com.

“They have a lot of prideful guys over there,” he said. “It was a tough game at halftime the first time we played them. (We) kind of got away from them in the second half. (And) we made some plays; we don’t expect it to be any different. We have to keep doing the little things right. (Also,) we have to play every play and we have to try to make some plays to win this ball game.”
