Buccaneers vs Falcons Recap: Bucs Fall To 2-3 In Atlanta, 34-29

Stop me if you’ve heard this before - a win or loss can be decided by a single play in the NFL.

Tampa Bay found that out the hard way against the Falcons on Sunday.

A missed extra point and a crucial turnover in the end zone - along with bad defense - were the catalysts to Tampa Bay’s third consecutive loss on the season.

The Bucs first drive of the game was perfect. Great pass protection, play-calling, and run blocking allowed Tampa Bay to gain positive yards on every play.

A 28-yard run by Peyton Barber put the Bucs in Falcons territory and Jameis Winston capped off the drive with a beautiful pass to Cameron Brate on 3rd-and-8 for a touchdown.
