The Tampa Bay Buccaneers fell to the Philadelphia Eagles 25-11 on Monday Night Football. While many thought this game would be a struggle for the Pewter Pirates, (and it was) there were some good to go with a lot of bad.
Fourth and Two
The Eagles offense at times seemed unstoppable. After driving down the field early in the first quarter, the Eagles faced fourth and two deep in Bucs territory. The defense was up to the task.

Right Place, Right Time
Buccaneers linebacker Devin White has taken heat for his pass coverage play. Late in the first half White showed that being in the right place at the right time is crucial.

Defense Stands Strong
With the Bucs being without Carlton Davis and losing Jamel Dean during the game, someone had to step up. Enter Dee Delaney.
WHAT AN INTERCEPTION BY DEE DELANEY!
