Tampa Bay Buccaneers take 24-13 lead on Drew Brees pick-six (Video)
By Josh Hill
Tampa Bay Buccaneers fans were sick after a 1-3 start, but a win in Pittsburgh last week and 24 unanswered against the Saints have changed feelings and lightened moods.
When the Tampa Bay Buccaneers came into New Orleans to take on the Saints there was little hope that they would come away with a win. When the Saints jumped out to a 13-0 lead, what little was still in the hearts of Bucs fans began to grow faint, but the team turned it around.

Somehow, the Bucs came out hard with 24 unanswered points that was capped off with a pick-six off of Drew Brees.
Linebacker Danny Lansanah picked off Brees and returned the interception for a touchdown to make it a 24-13 lead for the Buccaneers.
Tampa Bay has come roaring out of nowhere to take this lead over the Saints which is huge for the confidence of the team. But the Saints losing like this is so uncharacteristic of the team that was built, which is troubling for the immediate future of the franchise.
