Hello Who Dats & Who Datettes & welcome to THE ORIGINAL Saints game thread for Week 2/Game 2 of the 2022 season. Don't fall into the trap of Tom Brady fan boy phony game threads.

A lot of talking heads, including Brady himself, are trying to make it a talking point that Brady has yet to beat the Saints in the regular season (0-4) since he joined the Bucs and now it's time for revenge as this might be his final season in the NFL.

And for the Saints to keep that trend of beating Brady in the regular season going, they can't rely on the Falcon-staple 4th quarter collapse like the Falcons did last week.

For a game so early in the season, this game could be determined by whose back-ups show up as both teams took some significant injuries in week 1 for a game that could be big later down the line, esp. considering after next week the Saints will be halfway through their divisional schedule already.

LET'S SINK THE BUCS, GET TO 2-0 AND TAKE THE EARLY DIVISION LEAD!!!!!
