PRODRAFTSTATS™PRODRAFTSTATS™Tampa Bay ran 49 times. Baker Mayfield threw 11 passes. Final: Tampa Bay Buccaneers 43, Carolina Panthers 13.
Carolina’s offense never got going in a 43-13 loss to Tampa Bay, and the Panthers players we had highest on our sealed card all finished well under their numbers. Bryce Young, sealed at 21.02, was sacked five times, threw two interceptions and lost a fumble, and finished with 5.42 full-PPR points.
The game was 33-6 at halftime. Tampa Bay scored on a 32-yard fumble return by Calijah Kancey after a strip-sack of Young, and again when Zyon McCollum returned a blocked extra point for 2 points. Carolina finished with four turnovers and Tampa Bay with none. With the lead in hand, the Buccaneers kept running: 49 carries for 258 yards and 35:57 of possession.
Bucky Irving got 24 of those carries, for 106 yards and touchdowns from 4 yards and 1 yard: 24.0 points against our 14.30. Baker Mayfield, back after missing three games with a dislocated thumb, according to the game story on ESPN, threw 11 passes. He completed seven for 64 yards and a touchdown to Tez Johnson, 6.66 points against the 13.88 on our sealed table.
One note on our own card. The table we froze on Tuesday carried Mayfield at 13.88 but did not flag him as startable, and it flagged Jalon Daniels as Tampa Bay’s startable quarterback at 11.51. Mayfield started. Daniels ran twice for minus-3 yards and did not attempt a pass. We report both numbers as they were sealed.
For Carolina, Young completed 14 of 27 for 163 yards; his one touchdown was a 50-yarder to Darren Waller. Chuba Hubbard had seven carries for 33 yards and four catches for 27 (10.0 against 18.01). Tetairoa McMillan caught four of six targets for 40 yards (8.0 against 16.15).
