The Tampa Bay Buccaneers average 446.8 yards of offense per game. They beat that average by more than 60 yards against the Redskins 11th ranked defense today.
And lost.
Tampa Bay put up more than 500 yards of total offense and scored just 3 points.
Part of the reason was two missed field goals — one each in the first & third quarters — by the Tampa Bay kicker, Catanzaro, but the biggest reason was great individual plays by a number of Redskins defensive players through out the game.
1st Quarter 10:44
On the game’s first drive, the Bucs had driven 60 yards and were in the Redskins’ red zone.
