00:00DRS a statement win yesterday from the Buccaneers on the road in LA against the

00:08LA Chargers 40 to 17 as Tampa was trailing at the break by 4 points 17 to

00:153 they scored 27 straight the only 27 points scored in the second half there

00:22are many reasons to me that this win is significant for the Buccaneers extending

00:27their advantage in the NFC South you see the best of what Baker Mayfield can be

00:32288 yards four touchdowns in the re-emergence of the veteran Mike Evans

00:38159 yards and two TDs yesterday his season best now 251 yards away in the

00:45final three for Tampa to getting back to a thousand that would be all 11 seasons

00:51Mike Evans has played in the National Football League but for this Bucs defense

00:56to do what they did to the Bucs offense yesterday holding them scoreless in the

01:00second half only 32 rushing yards for a Los Angeles team that wants to run the

01:06ball as best as anybody around the NFL with the injuries that Tampa has

01:12defensively this year it was a really big win for the Buccaneers again

01:17outright as a three-point underdog Donnie in the last two seasons under

01:22Baker Mayfield this Bucs team is now 14 and 7 against the spread as an underdog

01:28with nine outright victories in the last two seasons incredibly impressive stuff

01:33out of the Buccaneers yesterday especially in that second half against

01:37the Chargers absolutely and also when you take a look at a road game against

01:42a physical football team and you were coming in with 20 to 25 players on the

01:45injury report which included Bucky Irving which included Mike Evans and

01:48both of those guys were absolutely stellar now you get what you get with

01:52the Chargers they're still having those building blocks towards the future and

01:55Justin Herbert seems like every other game is dealing with ankle injuries arm

01:58injuries shoulder injuries rib injuries and he got banged up again yesterday

02:01which is why Taylor Heinecke basically finished that game out in a blowout but

02:05the one calling card we always knew that Jim Harbaugh loves is running the

02:08football JK Dobbins looked like he was shot out of a cannon this year and fully

02:12back from his injuries and of course as you know he's out with injuries now which

02:16leads with just Gus Edwards and that's not gonna be enough 11 carries for 32

02:19yards for 2.9 yards per carry that's not the Charger way and also keep in

02:23mind loud McConkie has been great five catches 58 yards and the touchdown

02:27yesterday but even he seems to be a game time decision every week if he can go

02:31they'll get it together in the future but that was just a great performance by

02:35a Buccaneers team in a game they had to win on the road and so injured going all

02:39the way from East Coast to West Coast that was as great as a performance as

02:43you're going to get for the Buccaneers in 2024
