HOUSTON -- With 49 seconds left at the Houston Texans on Sunday and trailing 33-30, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers were able to do something they hadn't done all season -- take the lead in the final 2 minutes of a game.

Quarterback Baker Mayfield delivered a 14-yard strike over the middle to tight end Cade Otton, who spiked the ball as the score flashed 36-33 on the NRG Stadium videoboard before kicker Chase McLaughlin's point after attempt made it 37-33.

"We did everything we could in that time period, just trying to support our guys," Mayfield said.
