The Bucs demolished the Falcons at Raymond James Stadium, bullying and beating them 16-0 in rainy contest. The running game was incredible, breaking a franchise record by recording 324 yards on the ground. The defense was exceptional, too, recording four interceptions.
Quarterback Baker Mayfield did not throw complete a pass or have any passing yards as all of the work was done in the running game. Tampa Bay improves to 3-5 on the season and are in the driver’s seat in the NFC South with a 2-0 divisional record.
Pewter Report recaps the game.
