There was some good and bad in the Tampa Bay Buccaneers defensive performance against the Philadelphia Eagles.
While the team managed to stop the Eagles on third down in the red zone numerous times over the night, Philly seemed to be there quite often. On top of that, the Bucs gave up 472 total yards of offense on the night, 201 of which was purely in rushing yards. While the Eagles only scored 25 points in their win, it was a bit of a rough outing for head coach Todd Bowles’ unit.
