PHILADELPHIA– With a damaged protection already down 4 starters and also cornerback Richard Sherman leaving the game in the very first quarter, Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady as well as running back Leonard Fournette carried the tons on the road Thursday versus the Philly Eagles in a 28-22 win at Lincoln Financial Field.Dealing with a thumb injury all week that limited him to some light including walk-throughs, Brady– that was available in leading the NFL in passing– went 34 for 42 for 297 lawns, two touchdowns and also an interception. His only choice, by Anthony Harris, began a 30-yard deep pass planned for Antonio Brown on a third-and-15. An additional prospective interception by safety and security Marcus Epps was inevitably overturned.On the ground, Fournette rushed for 81 yards on 22 brings and 2 goals, as well as he added 46 lawns on six catches.AP Photo/Matt Slocum Uncomfortable trend:At this price, cornerbacks coach Kevin Ross and
defensive coordinator Todd Bowles may have to suit up this season for the Bucs(5-1). Heading right into tonight’s video game, second starters had missed out on a combined 11 begins, with Sherman’s injury being the team’s newest blow. He was changed by Dee Delaney.Everything you require this week: – Complete routine “| Standings”- Deepness charts for each team”- Purchases”| Injuries “- Football Power Index positions “Even more NFL coverage “
The group gave up only 115 passing yards, with Jamel Dean scratching an interception for the second straight week on a pass meantfor wide receiver Quez
Watkins.But Dean– the only healthy and balanced beginning cornerback– remains to be an up-and-down gamer. His 45-yard defensive pass disturbance charge on the opening drive established a 5-yard
touchdown reception by tight end Zach Ertz. A 50-yard defensive pass interference penalty by back-up safety and security Mike Edwards in the 3rd quarter set up a 6-yard touchdown shuffle by Jalen Hurts.Promising fad: Before Thursday evening, tight end O.J. Howard, still not 100%coming off a fractured Achilles and also playing behind Rob Gronkowski, had just 6 targets for the period. In Gronkowski’s lack the last 2 weeks, he had just two catches. But against the Eagles(2-4), Howard had six catches on 7 targets for 46 lawns and also a goal. He and Brady finally looked in-sync. Suspicious telephone call: The Bucs went all out on fourth-and-3, from the Eagles’46-yard line, and also transformed the ball over on downs after Brady overthrew Howard. The Eagles then made it a six-point game when Harms rushed for a 2-yard touchdown with 5:56 to go before transforming a two-point conversion to Watkins. The Bucs captured a massive break on the following driver after a taunting fine was called on defensive end Genard Avery that progressed the Bucs 15 backyards and also let them go out the clock.
