Buccaneers vs Vikings 4th Quarter week 8
Tampa Bay Buccaneers win game over Minnesota Vikings
A perfectly timed and well managed drive by the Buccaneers they control the ball and use a fair amount of time on the clock. It took 16 plays and 87 yards but they get into the end zone again and take the lead to 36 to 17. They go for the two points but do not get it and the score is 36 to 17.
The Vikings will have to convert each drive and also manage their time well since they need 3 scores. Well they don’t and the Bucs only have to manage the clock and not turn the ball over and they can sew the game up in short order.
Having the ball with only 4 minutes left in the football game and a 19 point lead it’s almost a no brainer. They eventually kick the ball back to the Vikings but with approximately 3 minutes left they really would need 2 miracles at this point.
With only a minute to go they throw an interception so we will likely see one play and a knee. The final score in the game Tampa 36 to 17 Minnesota.
It’s apparent the Tampa offense is quite a bit better then their win/loss numbers would have you believe. i never expected the Buc’s quarterback Josh Freeman to do as well in the air as he has tonight. If they can keep this up the next few weeks they will be doing much better in their division later in the season.
They take on Atlanta November 25th and although they may not be up to the caliber to take them on, they have a number of weeks yet to improve their game so no reason to count them out just yet in the division.
