Live scores, highlights and updates from the Falcons vs. Buccaneers football game
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers will head out on the road to face off against the Atlanta Falcons at 1:00 p.m. ET on Sunday at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. The Buccaneers are hoping to put an end to a four-game streak of away losses.
Last Sunday, the Buccaneers sure made it a nail-biter, but they managed to escape with a 21-18 victory over the Panthers.
The Buccaneers' victory was a true team effort, with many players turning in solid performances. Perhaps the best among them was Mike Evans, who picked up 162 receiving yards and a touchdown. Evans' longest reception was for an incredible 75 yards. Another player making a difference was Rachaad White, who rushed for 84 yards and a touchdown.
Meanwhile, Atlanta gave up the first points last Sunday, but they didn't let that get them down. They managed a 13-8 win over the Jets. The win made it back-to-back wins for Atlanta.
The team won by holding the Jets to a paltry 259 yards. A big part of that defensive dominance came down to the Falcons' ability to keep the quarterback under pressure: the team laid the passer out four times before it was all said and done. Bud Dupree was particularly dangerous to the passing game, picking up two sacks himself.
The losses dropped Tampa Bay to 5-7 and Carolina to 1-11.
The Buccaneers are hoping to beat the odds on Sunday, as the experts think they're headed for a loss. For those looking to play the spread, take note: they are a solid 5-1 against the spread when playing on the road.
