Buccaneers vs. Falcons Thursday Night Football score, live updates: Tampa Bay leads at half in NFC South clash

Must read

Week 5 of the NFL season kicks off with a huge clash in the NFC South between the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the Atlanta Falcons. The 3-1 Buccaneers can take a big leap in the division race with a win over the 2-2 Falcons and a mini-bye week before visiting the 2-2 Saints in Week 6. The Falcons beat the Saints last week, and could get an early leg up in the division with wins over both Tampa Bay and New Orleans as the season passes the quarter mark.

The teams went into halftime with the Buccaneers up 24-17 in a shootout. Baker Mayfield continued his resurgence by going 12-for-15 for131 yards and three touchdowns in the first half, while Kirk Cousins was 21-of-28 for 253 yards and two touchdowns. Buccaneers wide receive Mike Evans also scored the 99th touchdown catch and 100th touchdown overall of his career.

Live46 updates

  • The Falcons punt in Tampa Bay territory after their drive stalls down. Looks like the Bucs will enter the locker room up by a touchdown, and will get the ball back to open the second half.

  • TOUCHDOWN: Sterling Shepard scores two days after signing

    Sterling Shepard has been on the Bucs’ 53-man roster for two days and has his first touchdown with the team. His college teammate Baker Mayfield is now 12-for-15 for 131 yards and three touchdowns.

  • That’s our third suspected concussion of the game.

  • Big BIG run for Rachaad White. He’s been off to a rough start this season but breaks off a 56-yarder on a well-blocked inside run.

  • FIELD GOAL: Younghoe Koo good from 54 yards

    Apparently 50-yard field goals are just a gimme in the NFL now. We’ve got another tie game.

  • Aaand the call is upheld. Falcons ball, 2nd-and-20, 7:35 left in the half, Drake London back.

  • A lot happening on that play. Hard to see this going the Bucs’ way but you never know

  • The Falcons might be facing a shootout without their top receiving weapon.

  • TOUCHDOWN: Mike Evans scores his 100th TD

    Mike Evans, again. It’s the 99th touchdown catch of his career and his 100th touchdown overall .It’s also his NFL-best fifth of the season.

  • Kirk is looking good.

  • TOUCHDOWN: Kirk Cousins finds Darnell Mooney on 3rd-and-14

    The Falcons might be down their No. 1 receiver in Drake London, but they still have Darnell Mooney. He makes a spectacular catch from 25 yards out.

  • Drake London takes a hit to the helmet and draws an unnecessary roughness penalty. He looked a little foggy walking to the sideline.

  • FIELD GOAL: Bucs take the lead on a 53-yarder

    Chase McLaughlin makes his fourth 50-yard field goal out of four this season, a year after going 7-of-8 from the same range. It’s his 26th straight regular season make, a Bucs record.
