Week 14 Recap: West coast collapse, Bucs lose to 49ers 35-7

On the heels of one of the most exciting wins of Tampa Bay’s season, the Buccaneers flew cross-country to play Brock Purdy and the San Francisco 49ers. Just a few weeks ago, Tampa Bay looked to be struggling just to find a way to win their division and limp into a home playoff game as the fourth seed. Now just a few weeks later, Tom Brady’s late game theatrics in unison with an injury to 49ers’ quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo have people feeding into the idea that all of a sudden this 2022 Tampa Bay Buccaneer team that has been largely a disappointed throughout the season may actually be playing a head to head game in which a win could potentially net them an opportunity at the third seed.
