For everything that went right in Week 9's dominant 30-10 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the New Orleans Saints also dealt with some adversity.
Saints punt returners Ted Ginn Jr. and Willie Snead each had a muffed catch in the second half.
Ginn fell on his miscue in the third quarter, but Snead's misplay in the fourth quarter cost the Saints as the Buccaneers recovered the ball and scored a touchdown three plays later.
Coach Sean Payton didn't appear pleased with the mistakes on special teams.
"We have to be able to in the NFL when we're faced with a situation where a team's punting in -- where normally it's a fair catch or let it bounce decision -- we've got to be able to catch that ball 100 percent of the time," Payton said emphatically during a Monday morning teleconference.
