Saints come out firing in the first half, lead the Bucs on the road

NEW ORLEANS, La. (WVUE) - Well, the Saints no doubt answered their detractors in the first half against the Bucs, after a tough loss last week against Atlanta.

The Saints raced out a 20-0 lead, and went to the locker room with a 20-7 advantage.

New Orleans found the end zone twice in the first half, both came courtesy of Drew Brees touchdown passes.

Brees connected with Michael Thomas for a 16-yard TD, and then hit Jared Cook for a 3-yard score.

The Black and Gold’s first touchdown was setup by a Demario Davis interception.
