Tampa Bay Buccaneers 33 Philadelphia Eagles 16 Sunday 29 September 2024 at Raymond James Stadium
NFC SOUTH STANDINGS Tampa Bay Buccaneers 3-1 New Orleans Saints 2-2 Atlanta Falcons 2-2 Carolina Panthers 1-3
FOX COMMENTARY CREW Kevin Burkhardt and Tom Brady
The Bucs do seem to have Jalen Hurts’ number. After defeating the Eagles in the playoffs in January, the oppressive heat of September Tampa was the same for the Philadelphia QB as he was harried all day suffering six sacks and the Bucs took advantage of jumping out to an early 24-0 lead to up their record to 3-1 on the season. The game also marked the return of Tom Brady to Tampa as he called the game for FOX Sports.
