The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are dominating the Philadelphia Eagles, leading 17-0 at halftime of their NFC wild card matchup.
The Bucs tacked on three more points on Ryan Succop’s 34-yard field goal with 9:20 to play in the half.
Philly’s offense finally started moving midway through the second quarter. They converted a fourth down around midfield before failing to convert a fourth-and-10 try from the Bucs’ 37 yard line. Wirfs returned for the Bucs’ penultimate drive of the half, but the team went three-and-out after protection issues. Tom Brady was sacked for a loss of nine yards as Wirfs again limped off the field, and Tampa Bay was forced to punt.
The Eagles appeared poised to get on the board during their final drive before halftime. After a 35-yard completion from Jalen Hurts to Quez Watkins, Philly was well within field goal range in the final minutes. Then, with 50 seconds to play, Hurts fired a pass toward DeVonta Smith at the goal line and was intercepted by Mike Edwards.
