What are the playoff records of both teams since Tom Brady landed in that division?
Head-to-head is a much better indicator than trying to use the transitive property. We have a 5-game sample size.
When one team wins 4/5, some of them in dominating fashion and the loss very close/flukey in a league with as much parity as the NFL, that’s about as clear as it gets.
There was even a freaking shutout.
ETA: The only reason we didn’t win the division for a 5th straight time is that they injured our QB on a dirty play. We own them.

That’s the point here.
Sure, the Saints were 4-0 against the Buccs during the regular season, but what happened in the playoffs the year before last? They lost, to the Buccs. The Buccs then proceeded to win the Super Bowl. What happened in the playoffs last year? The Buccs went 1-1 while the Saints sat at home.
Who has the better team in 2022? The Buccs.

Tampa got their one when it counted and then got a Super Bowl. The four Saints wins mean jack shite.
