The New Orleans Saints will play their next game of the season against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers under referee Clete Blakeman. It’s the first time this season for both teams in the matchup that he’ll be the one officiating, though he’s worked as a head referee since 2010. The Buccaneers are 7-7 in games with Blakeman as the referee, while the Saints are 7-6. Ironically he’s officiated three past matchups between these two teams, and New Orleans is 3-0 in them.
