Tampa Bay Buccaneers 31 Philadelphia Eagles 15 Sunday 16 January 2022 at Raymond James Stadium FOX COMMENTARY CREW Joe Buck and Troy Aikman
The first home playoff game in 14 years turned out to be a comfortable victory as the Bucs jumped out to a 31-0 lead before surrendering a pair of fourth quarter scores. Tom Brady was efficient and the offense methodical in building the advantage with the defense holding the vaunted Philadelphia running game in check for most of the day.
