Tampa Bay Buccaneers 24 Los Angeles Rams 27
Monday 23 November 2020 at Raymond James Stadium
ESPN COMMENTARY CREW Steve Levy, Brian Griese and Louis Riddick
Another national TV game, another lackluster performance
and another loss. This game never felt as close as a three-
pointer with a deciding fieldgoal by former Buc Matt Gay in
the fourth quarter. The defense never got close to Jared
Goff, Tom Brady was terrible on anything over 10 yards
downfield and the Bucs fell to 7-4 on the season.
