Mike Evans and Chris Godwin both had big games with eight and six catches respectively. Both Bucky Irving and Rachaad White had ten carries for 49 yards. Irving was able to find the end zone in the win. The Tampa Bay defense sacked Jalen Hurts six times on the afternoon. The Buccaneers play the Atlanta Falcons on Thursday Night Football this week.

Speaking of the Falcons, they got a big division win this week 26-24 over the New Orleans Saints.
