Tampa Bay Tops Saints 31-14 at Home

The Buccaneers made big plays on both sides of the ball as they hammered the New Orleans Saints 31-14 yesterday at Raymond James Stadium.  Jeff Garcia was stellar in the home opener by completing 10-of-16 passes for 243 yards and two touchdowns.  Both touchdown passes went to Joey Galloway, who torched the Saints secondary for four catches for 135 yards.  Cadillac Williams rushed 24 times for 61 yards and two scores.  The Bucs defense sacked Drew Brees twice and forced two turnovers.  The Saints running back duo of Deuce McAllister and Reggie Bush were held to a combined 76 yards rushing.  Tampa Bay evens its record at 1-and-1 and will host St. Louis on Sunday.  The Saints fall to 0-and-2.
