Tom Brady’s Tampa Bay Buccaneers won a heated game against the New Orleans Saints – including two dismissals.
The Buccaneers won 20-10 (0-3) because they could rely primarily on their defense, which got three interceptions against Saints quarterback Jameis Winston. Winston, who also used to play for Tampa Bay, had a lot of problems along with his offense.
Brady and colleagues also had it because the Saints-Defense had also had a good day, but because the old star didn’t make any serious blunders, it wasn’t that important. Brady, who was missing two of his best receivers in Chris Godwin and Julio Jones anyway, only had the complete “second guard” at his disposal towards the end: Mike Evans, also a wide receiver for the Bucs, was there because of a tussle with opponent Marshon Lattimore been sent off. As is Lattimore himself. The success put Tampa Bay on two wins from two games, and it was New Orleans’ first loss of the season.
Amon-Ra St. Brown towers against Washington
Amon-Ra St. Brown remains one of the outstanding players of the season so far. The German wide receiver of the Detroit Lions caught two touchdowns in the victory over the Washington Commanders and was one of the guarantors for Detroit’s first win of the season. St. Brown had already caught a touchdown from quarterback Jared Goff the previous week. The game ended with 36:27 (22:0) for Detroit. Washington’s race to catch up came too late. Both teams now have one win and one loss.
Incredible comeback for the Miami Dolphins
The Miami Dolphins managed to catch up in an impressive way. At halftime, the Dolphins were 7:28 behind the Baltimore Ravens. But because quarterback Tua Tagovailoa kept finding Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle with his passes and the two together came up with an incredible 361 yards and four touchdowns, the Dolphins turned the game around. The 42:38 ensures that the Dolphins remain unbeaten and the Ravens left the field as losers for the first time this season.
The Jacksonville Jaguars managed a big surprise. The worst team of the previous season won 24:0 (17:0) against the Indianapolis Colts, which are actually highly traded. Colts quarterback Matt Ryan threw three interceptions and struggled without his injured best receiver Michael Pittman, while Trevor Lawrence, number one pick in the previous draft, made 25 of 30 passes for Jacksonville, including two touchdowns.
