No one talks about the Bucs' defense. They aren't exactly a fun n' gun team, but they win, like beating Drew Brees and New Orleans 23-20. Pay attention now so you're not surprised when this D is making noise in January, Pete Prisco says.
Jermaine Phillips and Phillip Buchanon intercepted the NFL's leading passer in the closing minutes and Matt Bryant kicked a 37-yard field goal with 1:55 remaining Sunday to help the Buccaneers stay atop the NFC South with a 23-20 victory over the New Orleans Saints.
