It was an incredible game for quarterback Baker Mayfield, who got out of trouble with his three interceptions to help the Tampa Bay Buccaneers win 51-27 over the New Orleans Saints.
Thanks to the pivot’s four touchdown passes, the “Bucs” are the first this season to exceed the 50-point mark in the NFL. During the month of September, the Saints and the Buffalo Bills both scored 47 points, the highest before Sunday.

New Orleans (2-4) scored all of its points in the second quarter. Rashid Shaheed notably returned a punt 54 yards to reach the pay zone.
Chris Godwin caught two of Mayfield’s touchdown passes. Sean Tucker caught one and also scored a running game for Tampa Bay (4-2).
Love adds more
For the second time in three games, Jordan Love threw four touchdown passes, this time in a winning cause for the Green Bay Packers.
Despite its brilliance on September 29, the Wisconsin team had to admit defeat 31 to 29 to the Minnesota Vikings. Sunday, against the Arizona Cardinals, the defense was more solid to allow the Packers to triumph 34 to 13.
One of Love’s favorite targets was Romeo Doubs. The receiver added two touchdowns to his record, including one where he caught a pass that his quarterback released while off balance.
Despite this victory and their good record, the Packers (4-2) are currently in fourth place in the powerful North section of the National Association.
