Tampa Bay Buccaneers matchup with the Saints may not have big implications for New Orleans this season, but they are motivated for their city and their future. Where do Derek Carr, Alvin Kamara, and Chris Olave play into this week's game?

The Bucs may have an MVP caliber quarterback, but once again they need to lean on the run game and rookie Bucky Irving against the Saints. The defense has improved some, but they're still dealing with injuries to Antoine Winfield Jr and Jamel Dean

The game is more important than individual accolades, so Mike Evans' 1000 yard streak should not be the focal point as the Bucs look to clinch the NFC South
