The Buccaneers rookie receivers had a big second half as both Arrelious Benn and Mike Williams caught a touchdown pass from Josh Freeman. The Buccaneers defense has also stiffened up after allowing touchdowns on Atlanta’s first two possessions, allowing only a field goal on the third and stopping the Falcons offense twice in the last two minutes of the game.
A Matt Bryant field goal is the difference as the Bucs trail 17-14 at half. The Buccaneers will start the third period with the football.
