The Bucs set a franchise record scoring 55 points in pulling off a stunning upset of the undefeated defending NFC
champion Rams in their own stadium. Four Jameis Winston passing touchdowns and a clinching fumble return
score negated the 517 yards passing day from Jared Goff. Matt Gay bounced back with a perfect kicking day
including a 58-yard fieldgoal, the longest ever kicked by a Buccaneer on the road.
