Bucs beat Cardinals in tight contest
It was a battle of 1st round draft picks between Kyler Murray and Jameis Winston as the Bucs returned home for the first game in 7 weeks. The game from start to finish was very close as the Bucs came out and won by a score of 27-30.
Mike Evans had another good game having 89 receiving yards and a touchdown but unfortunately his streak of having over 100 yards receiving ended at 5.
Both quarterbacks had pretty good performances in the game with Jameis throwing for 352 and a touchdown and Murray threw for 324 and 2 touchdowns. Christian Kirk A.K.A Captain Kirk really killed the Bucs defense as Murray threw to him 10 times and caught 6 for 138 yards and their 3 touchdowns. Both quarterbacks at least didn’t have to run much as they both combined for 6 carries and 78 yards.
Shaq Barrett still continues to shine for the Bucs defense as he added another sack to his league leading 11.5. Vernon Hargreaves III was benched most of the game due to lack of performance according to Arians after the game and come to find out later the team releases him following the incident.
