New Orleans Saints: Three bold predictions vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers
By Jason Reed
2. Jameis Winston throws three interceptions
This might sound like a shocker but Jameis Winston has only thrown two interceptions over the last three games, which might be an all-time best for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback.
Okay, I probably have to slow down on my Winston slander but Winston is the most middle of the line quarterback in the NFL that definitely has talent, but throws far too many interceptions and loses too many games for me to call a good quarterback.
Interceptions have always been Winston’s Achilles’ Heel and the reason why the Bucs have been good over the last three weeks is because he has not lost them the game. They should honestly be 3-1 right now if it was not for a muffed game-winning field goal in Week 3.
Winston is primed for a Winston-like meltdown that includes three interceptions, one of which probably being a pick-six. While Bridgewater has the best game as a starter for the Saints, Winston is going to be getting pressured by the Saints’ defensive line and is going to try to do way too much.
Plus, we have no reason to believe that Winston can excel at all on the road in the Superdome. He is not even going to be able to hear his own thoughts. This is a perfect candidate for a Jamies Winston meltdown game.
