Wie Buccaneers Seahawks Überrannten
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers traveled all the way to Germany to beat the Seattle Seahawks and ensure they sit atop the NFC South standings. Tampa Bay got up early and held on late for a nice win against a fellow division leader. The performance up front for Tampa Bay was much better than the last time I covered them here against the Panthers, and I think it was the best the offensive line has played all year.
The pass protection was solid across the board. If anyone struggled there, it was center Robert Hainsey, who gave up a few pressures. But even he was decent and all in all I don’t think anyone can really complain about the pass blocking.
For me though, the real highlight was Tampa Bay’s running game. It has been mostly ineffective since a strong debut in Week 1, and it was good to see the Bucs get it going on the ground again. They split the carries between Rachaad White and Leonard Fournette and the two backs combined for 162 yards on 36 carries. It was a strong performance that I’m excited to highlight.
