Bucs' Baker Mayfield cashes in on second TD vs. Falcons

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers, attempting to get revenge on the Atlanta Falcons, fumbled their first drive of the game, leading to an early opponent score. The last time these teams faced off, the Buccaneers collapsed and the Falcons forced and ultimately won in overtime.

After Rachaad White fumbled and Kyle Pitts scored a Falcons touchdown, the Buccaneers swung back, with Cade Otton catching a touchdown pass from Baker Mayfield.

Tampa Bay then got a stop, with Mayfield leading a very solid drive down the field. The drive was capped off by White, who made up for his earlier mistake by scoring a receiving touchdown on a swing pass.

It was a simple swing pass from Mayfield, and White had three blockers in front of him, leading to a touchdown score. The concept was fairly simple, but the approach has led to Mayfield completing 13 of his 14 pass attempts for 114 yards and two touchdowns.
