TAMPA, Fla. -- The Tampa Bay Buccaneers may have defeated the New Orleans Saints 16-11 two weeks ago, but the Bucs say that means little heading into Saturday's rematch on the road. That's because they believe Saints quarterback Drew Brees taps into another gear inside the Mercedes-Benz Superdome, a place that's been his home now for 11 seasons.
“He protects his house, man. That’s what he’s about," said Bucs defensive tackle Gerald McCoy, who has trained with Brees in the offseason since 2010 and has developed a nice friendship with the nine-time Pro Bowler.
