Nothing about what happened on Sunday feels good, which continues a concerning trend for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
A 24-20 loss to a last-place Saints team is by far one of the biggest embarrassments suffered during the Baker Mayfield era, but it's not as fatal as it seems. While it was truly pathetic watching Baker throw for fewer than 125 yards and the defense get run over by two massive Tyler Shough touchdown runs, the Bucs head into a short week with full control of their playoff destiny.
More than that, Tampa Bay is a lot closer to clinching a fifth straight NFC South title than anyone expects, even if it feels like wishful thinking given the current slump that is blocking out all of the good vibes.
