3. Tampa Bay Bucs vs. New Orleans Saints

How good are the New Orleans Saints this season? A question many fans are asking after Atlanta’s close loss to a team expected to be far better than the Falcons. Tampa and New Orleans will be competing for the number one spot in the NFC South with Brady having the obvious advantage against a team that has dominated their matchups the last two seasons.

The good news for Atlanta is either Tom Brady or the New Orleans Saints will be handed their first loss of the season. As painful as it might be to cheer for Brady the hate for the Saints likely outweighs Atlanta’s distaste for all things, Brady.

Tom handing the Saints their first loss of the season (one Atlanta should have given them) would be the best thing Brady has done for Atlanta since joining the division. Add in the resurgence of Julio Jones and Tampa vs. New Orleans should be a great game for Atlanta fans one that promises they make up ground on at least one of their division rivals.
