Well, that’s about all she wrote, folks. The Buccaneers fell to the Giants 38-35, essentially sealing their fate and having yet another season end without a playoff berth. Despite Jameis Winston’s best efforts, the defense couldn’t come up with the one final stop to give the Bucs a chance to win.
Had it not been for the early hole dug by the offense - thanks to three Ryan Fitzpatrick turnovers, one of which returned for a touchdown - things might have been different. But that’s the story of the season, isn’t it?
