Buccaneers Play Of The Year Semifinals

We’ve whittled the Buccaneers best plays of the year down to four thanks to the votes by our readers. In our first semifinals match-up, we will have Ryan Smith‘s Michael Jackson toe touch facing off against Mike Evans‘ one handed catch.

Zach Sauers made the arguement for Smith’s insane play to be voted as the top play, as it was a crucial play in a key moment in the game. It was a large part of why the Bucs would go on to beat the Saints that day 16-11. Social media exploded with photos, videos, and lots of fun thanks to Smith’s impressive lean at the goal line drawing multiple comparisons to Michael Jackson’s “Smooth Criminal” music video and his trademark lean.
