NEW ORLEANS — Baker Mayfield threw three touchdown passes and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers beat the New Orleans Saints 26-9. Derek Carr returned to start for New Orleans after suffering a shoulder injury last week, but he did little to help the Saints' anemic offense. Mayfield completed 25 of 32 for 246 yards including TDs to Cade Otten, Trey Palmer and Deven Thompkins. The Bucs improved to 3-1 and took over first place in the NFC South. The Saints lost their second straight after a 2-0 start. Alvin Kamara totaled just 84 yards from scrimmage in his first game back from a three-game suspension.
