Buccaneers Drop a Golden Opportunity for a Win Against The 49ers

Tampa, Fla. — The Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday were looking to push their record to .500 but Jake Moody put a foot to that idea.

The 49ers led 20-17 inside the final minute when a Baker Mayfield engineered a field goal drive which tied the game. Bucs kicker Chase McLaughlin drilled a 26-yard field goal to tie the score at 20 with just :41 left, and overtime loomed large. It looked like the Bucs could get to overtime and steal a game in which for the most part was outplayed. The 49ers outgained the Buccaneers 413-215.

San Francisco took over on their own 30 after a Trenton Gill touchback, to start the show and it was Prudy. Four consecutive complete passes, two to Jauan Jennings and two to Ricky Pearsall and just like that the 49ers were at the Tampa Bay 26. Brock Prudy spiked the ball with :03 to set up the Jake Moody heroics. Final heartbreaking score 23-20.
