The Tampa Bay Buccaneers beat the Atlanta Falcons, 31-24. That was good enough to at least give them a share of the NFC South lead, but because the New Orleans Saints suck and the Carolina Panthers lost on Thursday, the Bucs now have the sole lead in the NFC South.
The Panthers, of course, couldn’t beat the Denver Broncos, missing a last-second, would-be game-winning field goal. Thanks, Broncos!
The New Orleans Saints were all set to win at home against the Oakland Raiders, but Jack Del Rio suddenly found a way to be aggressive and went for two after getting to a 34-35 score.
