The New Orleans Saints meet their division rivals, Tampa Bay Buccaneers in week 8. On an extremely hot streak, let’s look at 3 bold predictions beforehand.

The New Orleans Saints are on their way to winning the NFC South and this week proves a hurdle in that achievement. The Saints have already faced off against the Panthers, but have yet to face any other divisional rivals. With this week’s matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the Saints will prove their worth in the division.

In their two meetings against the Bucs last season, the Saints took one game while the Bucs took the other. Even though last season was a split, the Saints are in better shape than they were last season. In Week 8, the team will prove just how far they’ve come from the beginning of the season.

The team’s also looking to notch their sixth-straight win and become the most dominant team in the NFC South. As for the Bucs, they are sitting at 2-5, looking for wins after back-to-back losses against the Bills and the Panthers.

The Saints are the clear favorite to win and there’s a lot that could happen against a struggling Bucs team. With a home-field advantage, a lot of confidence and solid performances on both sides of the ball, there’s no telling what could happen. Before going into Week 9, let’s look at three bold predictions for the New Orleans Saints.
