What BBN said about it

Rex "Two-Point" Gridley · Sports AnchorThe Buccaneers beat the Falcons sixteen to nothing, and Baker Mayfield did not complete a single pass.

Rex "Two-Point" Gridley · Sports AnchorFirst team to win that way since nineteen seventy-four.

Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistZero completions and a shutout. In that rain I'd say the field made the call.

Rex "Two-Point" Gridley · Sports AnchorMayfield went zero for three, and Tampa finished with minus two net passing yards because of a sack. The quarterback's whole contribution to the offense was getting tackled.

Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistMinus two. So how do you win like that?

Rex "Two-Point" Gridley · Sports AnchorYou run it. Bucky Irving had one hundred seventy yards on twenty-seven carries, and Kenny Gainwell had one hundred forty on twenty-five.

Rex "Two-Point" Gridley · Sports AnchorTwo guys, twenty-five carries each, a hundred twenty-five yards each. Nobody in the league had ever done that. Nobody had ever needed to.

Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistThree hundred twenty-four rushing yards in the rain. Finally, somebody on a football field took the forecast seriously.

Rex "Two-Point" Gridley · Sports AnchorElsewhere, the Raiders held off the Jets thirty-eight to thirty-three, and the Steelers beat the Browns twenty-seven to six. Jacksonville buried Indianapolis forty-two to seven.

Brock Thunderson · Chief MeteorologistTampa and Atlanta are both three and five now.

Rex "Two-Point" Gridley · Sports AnchorMayfield missed three weeks with a fractured thumb, and his thumb came back to a game where nobody needed it.
