Buccaneers Vs. Saints: Massacre Or Miracle?

Must be something wrong with my hearing.

Gotta be.  I  can't begin to fathom what's being said out there.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers, yes those 1-8 Tampa Bay Buccaneers could POSSIBLY upset the mighty New Orleans Saints on Sunday?

Wait one minute. These are the "we're really thinking long and hard about a top three draft pick" Buccaneers going up against the "we're totally eyeballing the Super Bowl" Saints.

Not sure this one could turn out well for the Buccaneers in my wildest dreams and trust me, the Buccaneers are NOT in my wildest dreams.

Perhaps in Raheem "The Dream" Morris' wildest dreams, maybe, somehow.

Nah.

Isn't gonna happen.

Let's face reality. Please.

For some reason, ever since Raheem took the cover off his new guy—Josh Freeman—Tampa is gushing with hope. Now, granted, the Buccaneers are fun again. They're not getting crushed, not getting slaughtered.

But Sunday, reality comes to town.

That's 9-0 reality.

Makes David vs. Goliath look like a coin toss.

A chance?

Someone please convince me. Convince me that this amazingly bad defense that Jim Bates and Morris have put together can withstand the Saints.

Not buying into it. Even Barack Obama might have a tough time finding "hope" in this one.

The audacity of a Buccaneer win?

That's a lot of audacity.
