Quarterback Baker Mayfield threw two touchdowns on Thursday, one to wideout Chris Godwin and the other to WR Mike Evans. The Bucs weren’t in it for most of the game, but they spent a majority of the fourth quarter mounting a comeback that fell just short on Thursday night. Additionally, saftey Antoine Winfield Jr. continued his great campaign with a forced turnover on QB Josh Allen.

The Atlanta Falcons were up 13-10 late in the fourth quarter and had the chance to seal it with a score. Falcons quarterback Desmond Ridder had what looked to be the game-winning touchdown on a 12-yard scramble, but Winfield managed to peanut punch the ball out of his hands right before he crossed the plane. As the ball was a fumble and went out of the end zone, the play counted as a touchback and the Bucs were able to get the ball back.
