What channel is Saints vs. Buccaneers on today? Schedule, time for ‘Monday Night Football’ in Week 13

All four teams in the NFC South sit below .500 entering Week 13, a fact that is both surprising and not. 

The Buccaneers were certainly the cream of the crop in the division, but they’ve, arguably, also been its biggest disappointment. At 5-6, the Buccaneers sit in first place in the division, but a loss on Monday night could lead to a really, really gross situation at the top of the table.

The Saints (4-8) are, somehow, still “in it,” too, despite all sorts of issues at the quarterback spot and a lot of uncertainty moving forward. New Orleans does boast a very good defense, though, and Tom Brady has had a rough go figuring them out in recent seasons — even though a 20-10 win earlier in the year did allay some doubt.
