VIDEO: Buccaneers' QB Baker Mayfield Suffers Nasty Late Hit From Saints
Although the Week 4 matchup to determine the NFC South leader between the Buccaneers and Saints got off to a slow start, a lot has happened since.
After failing to reach the end zone in the first quarter, Bucs' quarterback, Baker Mayfield, led an impressive 87-yard drive to deliver his first touchdown pass of the game.

It was an impressive play by Mayfield, who had to hang in the pocket with defenders closing in on him-- something he has done a tremendous job of so far this year -- before dumping the ball down to second year tight end, Cade Otton, for the score.
Despite providing his team with six points on the scoreboard, Mayfield suffered a nasty hit on the play. Saints' star defensive end, Cameron Jordan, brought mayfield down from behind, in what many people would consider a dirty hit.
To make matters worse, Saints' DT, David Onyemata, smashed Mayfield up high, while he was being twisted up akwardly by Jordan underneath.
Was this an unecessarily dirty play by Cameron Jordan? Was Onyemata's role in the hit just as bad?
