Buccaneers coach Todd Bowles showed some guts on fourth down, and Tom Brady made it pay off.
Brady threw a touchdown pass to Russell Gage on fourth-and-goal from the 1-yard line early in the second quarter today, and the Bucs now have a 10-0 lead over the Bengals.
Tampa Bay looks a whole lot better than last week, when an ugly loss in San Francisco raised serious questions about whether the Bucs can be contenders in January.
There’s still a lot of game left to play, but the Bucs are looking good, and the Bengals need to bounce back if they want to hold onto their AFC North lead.
