00:00The Tampa Bay Buccaneers in pole position to win the NFC South for a fourth consecutive year

00:06Simply needing to handle business at home is more than a two touchdown favorite against the New Orleans Saints

00:12It should have been simple

00:14It was anything but but ultimately the Buccaneers a divisional champ in the NFC South for a fourth year

00:21in a row

00:232719 DRS the final score at home in Tampa

00:26Against the New Orleans Saints the Saints do cover as a 14 and a half point dog

00:31That was a theme of our final weekend of the regular season

00:35Dogs covering in a big way a total of 44 and a half does go over

00:42Tampa wins the NFC South for a fourth consecutive year despite trailing

00:4616 to 6 at the halftime break

00:49They rallied in the second half a couple of 12 play drives in those final two quarters that resulted in

00:56touchdowns in a win for Tampa over New Orleans

01:00Yeah, and you know what? It was a little bit too close for comfort even in the end

01:03Yes

01:03They were down double digits in the first half

01:05But the Saints had the football and we're driving and you get Tampa Bay to make a fourth down stop

01:09Which they did now heading to the playoffs Tampa's gonna be fun to watch Baker Mayfield Mike Evans

01:13You know the part there as well as Bucky Irving, but it also just goes to show you how fragile

01:17Some of these football teams are getting in. Yes. They won the division. Yes, they're getting a home game

01:22But in order to get that you saw the 5 and 11 Saints come to town dead man walking probably at head coach

01:28Spencer Rattler coming off some horrible game performances and they turned into more formidable foe and almost knocked off Tampa Bay

01:35No, also Tampa Bay dealing with a lot of stuff as well banged up all season long

01:39Which included their secondary coming into Sunday, which was down multiple starters

01:43Which we don't even know if they're getting back for the playoffs

01:45But say what you want

01:46Baker Mayfield is built for this fight a lot of teams would have down 10 and pressed in the second half and through multiple

01:52Interceptions and never got it together Baker was making plays with his arm and his feet

01:56How about this Ben nine carries for 68 yards in a big moment?

02:00You knew if you needed the first down Baker was going to get you that first down you needed that win

02:05Baker was also going to get you that win. So 27 to 19. It wasn't pretty but their division champions

02:10Why because Baker Mayfield's their quarterback and he's damn good
