Buccaneers throwback uniform to appear vs. Saints

Tampa Bay is going with its creamsicle throwbacks this weekend.

For the fourth consecutive season, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers will wear throwback uniforms. The Bucs are 1-2 when wearing the throwbacks, with their only win coming against the Green Bay Packers in 2009. They lost to the Panthers while wearing the throwbacks last season. This year, they'll wear them for their game against the Saints.

Head coach Greg Schiano is a fan of the retro look. "I do like them," he said. "It'll be fun to wear them."

The Buccaneers are 2-3 this season and coming off a 38-10 victory over the Kansas City Chiefs. That win snapped a three-game losing streak. New Orleans is coming off a bye week and won its Week 5 game against San Diego. That was the Saints' first win of 2012.

Sunday's game is set to begin at 1 p.m. ET, with television coverage by FOX.
