Commanders vs Buccaneers WEEK 1 FULL GAME Sep 08, 2024 | NFL KickOff 2024

time the Buccaneers have won the toss and chose to receive you rarely see that anymore and they'll get the ball at the 25 yd line this guy though they'll take their shots deep and they're coming right out of the gate throwing the football and the catch is made from Mike Evans he had one catch total in that game Sunday Sunday First Carry of the game for Payton Barber he's dropped after a gain of maybe a yard by DJ saringer defense will not be anything Sim similar to what it was last week Barber off the left side he'll be a yard short of a first down NFC East third down and a yard and they pitch it to Barber cuts it back to the inside and that's now 12 for 12 against this Washington defense they're still without Ronald Jones so checking into the back field is the rookie out of Duke Shan Wilson and out of the shotgun Fitzpatrick put throw and there's OJ Howard seconde Dynamic tight end out of Alabama it's Patrick to make Howard had two receiving touchdowns in a game for the first time last week and this time they go to Chris Godwin and that's another first down to the 21 yd [Applause] line little delay to Barber and he's spun out of a tackle from swaringer still on his feet breaks another tackle and what looked like a here 3 four5 yd loss turns into a close to three yd gain Sunday Sunday second down and seven and an overthrow and an interception at the goal line by Josh Norman he brings it out across the 25 and up to the 32 that is the fifth turnover by the Buccaneers inside the Red Zone this year nine touchdowns three interception for Smith and he'll throw on first down being chased and able to dump it off to Adrien Peterson and he lost the yard team defense leads the big plays second down and E 11 and the Ageless one Adrien Peterson breaks a couple of tackles still on his feet and lowers his shoulder up to the 37 yd line it'll bring up third down and five for Washington right there's Cooper number 72 you said to get rid of it quickly they do but incomplete with an eye on Jordan Reed first test pass with Jonathan Cooper in a drop back Stunt by Tampa Bay Press way hammers this one with the left foot driving Adam humph all the way back to his seven breaks a tackle and is up to the 15 yd line it's Patrick steps up and delivers What A Catch by Evans so already one more more reception for this Sunday Sunday we go Payton Barber up to the 35 that'll be a gain of close to four Shannon going to run it again this time Wilson trying to find Running Room and just simply not much there Mason Foster opponents have converted the highest rate into first downs against this defense in any in the league and they'll convert in Deshawn Jackson who's been barely on the field for half the number of plays two of the last three weeks offensive series thequiz Rogers a rare carry and he's thrown to the deck also know you like this guy out of North Carolina Zack Brown Ryan Fitzpatrick [Applause] snaping Fring offense number 66 5yd penalty second down the veteran Ryan Jensen a one-time Baltimore Raven Brad Allen our referee here [Music] today you're talking about Danny Johnson he's at the top of your screen they dump off the screen and losing his footing is Wilson and Dro for a huge loss you're not worried about interception take a shot it's Patrick still moving around pretty good back there for an old fell and he throws it is caught and the question is that a lateral if it isn't it's a clean play it would be a first down if even though he had crossed the line of scrimmage he could still lateral to a player in this case Adam Humphrey's off to his left right here you can see the line of scrimmage yes he's passed it and Adam Humphrey's at at this point that's a forward pass yep that's a forward pass no it is not the passer threw pass forward beyond the line of scrimmage there for it's an illegal forward pass that 5yd penalty is administered from the 39 yd line and includes a loss of down it will be fourth down please set the game clock to 431 so now the Buccaneers after a turnover on their first possession at the goal line are forced to punt after moving the ball effectively to begin their second Drive end overend Punt and into the End Zone it goes understandably so here in Tampa Bay about the future of both the head coach and the general manager and what about jamus Winston I mean there's all kinds of things going on here as Adrien Peterson is dropped for a one yd loss he and Alex Smith preparing their defense for the offense he's great in practice the pre B bibs with a big hole and he's up to the 34 yd line it's an interesting young player here bibs in his third year the more reps he gets just got to get off blocks Smith finds a wideopen Jordan Reed to the Tampa Bay 42 yd line and that'll be a first down he beat Bren G excellent speed for his side back to the ground with Peterson in Running Room inside the 35 and Adrien Peterson to 33-year-old Texan slams his way close to the 25 yd line that's his 19th carry this year at 10 yards or more that's fourth most in the NFL I'm not sure anybody saw that coming nowhere to go this time B Allen healthy again you got man down here playing Zone at the top man Zone to the trip side man to the single side and the play clock winding down Alex Smith says timeout second down when we return scoreless game Bo in suer you may remember out to left tackle in the absence of Trent Williams he'll be out at least two three more weeks with a thumb injury and here's a shot to the corner and excellent coverage after a promising start a season too and trying to patch it together after an excellent start to this year early [Applause] movement false start offense number 7 6 5yd penalty third down ironically that's a veteran Morgan Moses by showing your fronts late well played by coach duffman third and 11 to Third and 16 Maurice Harris his first reception at a great game a career game 10 catches 124 yds big snap good hold and it is [Applause] good when they score first they never give up the lead when they fall behind they've never come back that's amazing I've never heard of that and we're not talking about coming back to win we're talking about just coming back to take a lead aai got the win over Washington last week to get right back into thick of thing here's Payton Barber and he's still on his feet I mean he got buried behind a pile of bodies and somehow sprung loose 11 balls have to be going 11 helmets got to go to the [Music] ball well if it's successful why not keep doing it and so far it's been really good for pyton Barber Barber has been slowed down the last couple of weeks with a cender ankle but off to the great start today and now Fitzpatrick will dump it off to Barber and he's wrapped up after a gain of five it'll bring up second down they're not out of it three and five are still fighting that's it's a tough throw with an eye on Cameron bra now Fitzpatrick rolling right and the 35y old will dive forward very close to a first down that to get to the 40 and very close to it his entire Major League career as a player in what is now a parking lot the old Al Lopez field got him looking for Evans and converging at the last instant Haha Clinton Dicks along with Danny Johnson now what does that tell you in the long run probably not much but an under throw there and this time in the hands of Godwin for a second of time and that's good enough for another first down and again it's going after Danny Johnson right here in their regular defense and their nickel defense he's the linebacker Harbor met right at the line of scrimmage Flags down on the play on a first down and 10 holding offense number 66 10yd penalty first down second penalty on the center Ryan Jensen pull the flag been that way I think a lot for that Cincinnati defense this year pull the flags they have so many guys here a lot like the Redskins a lot of guys hurt Rogers is tackled from behind I thought you told me you never watch baseball here's Fitzpatrick and and there's a dart bobbling momentarily but able to haul it in and they'll just blow it dead is a tight end Cameron bra that's another Buccaneers first down well is the first down and gang tackling apparently they gave great the second surge there if you will Sunday go they got down here and turned it over their first possession and Fitzpatrick is going to run it again and now running side to side he easily would have had a first down had he just lunged forward down around the 10 well that going be a big play in this game that's where a guy's been around as long as Fitzpatrick you figure he'll just slide and get a first down he ran himself out of a first down and now it's third down and it's a drop ball by bra I think it's a play we keep an eye on the rest of this game G right there 28 in a row from inside of [Applause] 40 and he missed it wide right of course he's missed at the same time four point after touchdowns this year so that's no surprise at all he would miss that [Music] close I want to get back to this for a minute cuz I'm not sure I heard what you just said about one thing they're going to hand it on to Peterson and he is run down and there's that swarming defense now time to leave and you Le can only Le by being productive Peterson like that dropped right there that's a good play had another game today three big weapons in this passing offense and blown dead before it ever got started looked like Floyd may have started too soon I I I get the injuries and so do 31 other teams that have a list of injuries number 86 5yd penalty third down that's a veteran Jordan Reed third down and 15 they drop it off to bibs and he'll be denied first down yardage nobody cares if their skins have injuries at wide receiver you're an NFL player make plays who's going to make more [Applause] plays Adam humph will signal for the fair catch at the 22 yd line three nothing [Applause] Washington as down they hand it off to Shawn Wilson and that'll be a gain of close to four on first down three nothing [Applause] Barber back into the game excellent play there by both Preston Smith and Zack Brown both in Hot Pursuit of Barber that's tremendous by Preston that's what Greg nusy expects ready Pampa Bay three of five on third down third and eight here and a little flip to Rogers who who what a move they call those ankle breakers and that's all the way up close to Midfield he went right around Monte Nicholson there's an injured on the play and that's who it is oh to Godwin and that is a first down to the Washington 37 near Shannon spake first quarterback in NFL history to have three consecutive 400 yd passing games We Men He starting for his seventh different team finds humpr and that is a first down to the Washington 12 yd line that's Fitzpatrick over Zack Brown It's a ninth different receiver Fitzpatrick is hit so far today and he will be dropped a flag comes down matt ioni is what a f he is to in fifth round two years ago holding offense number 77 the penalty is declined second down second down and 13 O dangerous throw there with an eye on Wilson from the back field he clear this drive Tampa Baye had three very good drives offensively today yet has not scored a single point and on third down down into traffic looking for humph and saring are right there on the coverage all right KERO now on for a 33 yd attempt he just missed a moment ago and this one is [Applause] good that will be one of the most interesting decisions any team makes in the NFL at the end of this year is what the Buccaneers are going to do with a former number one overall pick and IR players are with all the families out [Applause] there set up the screen on a first down to bibs and he's got lots of room there's a flag down and bibs is all the way to the 35 yd line but we wait on the penalty holding offense number 72 10yd penalty from the spot of the foul remains first down that's EP and it's carrying over into this game so far [Applause] Harris up to the 27 yd line and they're in hurry up mode Redskins have two timeouts [Applause] remaining into double coverage in somehow some way Smith able to make the completion first n we've called the name of Josh doson today the former number one pick out of TCU you ball from the 39 yd line great protection and bobing but coming down with the football is Michael Floyd and I'm not sure lante David or his teammates are buying it after a 20-yard gain let's see if Floyd was able to hang on former number one pick of [Applause] Arizona does a good job with adjusting his hips bobbles it right there yeah and plus they got a wasted time out after review the ruling on the field has changed it is an incomplete pass it'll be second and 10 on the 39 yd line please set the game clock to 122 Washington is not charged with a [Applause] timeout I so mentioned skins don't lose that timeout two remaining Crossing pad and that will be a first down to Dockson do they spend the timeout now or do they hurry it up they're going to hurry it up I think they have plenty of time give what you want they know the temp is playing off so anything to the sidelines is always op quick hit to Harris that will be about an 8- yd gain I'd imagine you'll see the timeout now yes you will one timeout remaining a second down and one and what a catch that is by Floyd and got the feet in bounds a first down to the 31 the Buccaneers not giving up the easy ones now challenging Smith [Applause] incomplete then cover with his linebacker he just did get it off and that's Reed to the 25 and Redskins are going to try to get another play off and convert to get a little bit closer for their field goal kicker [Applause] Hopkins and Smith incomplete under heavy pressure by Gerald McCoy or their best skill position players in Crowder and Thompson especially field goal try of 43 yards and that one is good by Hopkins this makeshift offensive line for the Redskins is not allowed Smith to be sacked in this game and that one through the back of the end zone 20 seconds remain ready it's Patrick going to dump it off to Rogers out of the back field and he's up to the 36 yd line Buccaneers have all three timeouts they take one [Applause] y again Rogers and pretty good yardage they'll call a timeout again that's going to take too much time and that will drop him to the 39 now that one you'll never have me understand no I will never get that call as long as I live that's what he's saying what are we doing check in with Shannon here for a moment she had time to visit with each head [Music] coach and from the goal line this is Danny Johnson on the return and the ball no he held on to it but vo did he take a hit Mercy well Shannon you're exactly right we talked about a game overloaded with stats but two areas you can pretty much look in and all but guaranteed that you could tell who the winning team and losing team not every time but most of the time better because they match up with these Washington receivers more favorably Adrien Peterson got a good block on the outside and he lowers his shoulder to try and get a first down he's about a yard short Redskins have not converted on a third down today and now they're going to have to spend a Timeout on their first drive third down and a yard [Applause] I third in the yard and Peterson very close look like he got enough needed to get to the [Music] 29 Smith has not been sacked in the game and there's a drop by Jordan Reed year that came all the way back in week three against Pittsburgh and well over 200 passing attempt since their last interception Flags come in late on an 11 yd run by Peterson holding offense number 72 10yd penalty second [Applause] down second down and 20 after the penalty and that's Harris up to the 25 yd line it'll bring up third down and 14 for the red [Applause] third down and 14 and a catch lunging to try and get the first down is Doon well that's got to make you get the first down that's a pretty good try out it there by Smith and the Redskins this one punted and it will be down inside the 5yd line beautifully done by trese ready out cross and barber in the back field they're going to throw it on first down and that's a nice completion up to the 21 yd line to Deshawn Jackson so maybe you can overcome that lack of ability getting touchdowns in the Red Zone Barber a yard maybe two at a good first half did Barber nine carries 44 yds awkward [Applause] angle it's Patrick back shoulder throw and a beauty indeed Reception made by Evans up close to Midfield run the rout for by ball mik here we go quick throw and apparently Jackson's okay he's ping the game and run out of bounds hard of course Jackson came to Tampa Bay after leaving the Washington Redskins three SE seasons in Washington un like marose a veteran it's only his second year in the League Barber cuts it back to the inside and dragging would be tacklers inside the 30 to the 29 yd line and make the tackle flat out Miss that's Deshawn Jackson very close to another first down ready Barber denied first down yardage were so it appears he only needed about a half yard and the Redskins are trying to go to six and three something they have not done since 2008 and that will be a first half first down and 10 ninth play of this drive was stared inside their own 5 yd line it's Patrick and how about some pretty nifty footwork there by the 35y old [Applause] good play on the interior by Jonathan [Applause] Allen third down at seven and a bobbled snap and Fitzpatrick has to cover it up all the way back at the 30 yd line so here you are for the fourth time 48 yd field goal try to knock this game at six peace no good wide right of seven first downs in this game Yep they're ahead Smith taking the big ball quick down the middle of the field incomplete excellent coverage by the veteran Brent GES and there is a penalty flag down on the field passer Defense number 91 15 the pass first against Bo Allen but more importantly for the Redskins one of their offensive linemen is limping around down [Applause] there so the 15yd penalty on the roughing the passing and this is Jordan Reed and he is wrapped up short of a first down second down in a yard they going to throw it again and down goes Smith for the first time today and for V that's the first time he's been near a quarterback this entire year and the Redskins have used their second timeout back in the ball game third down and nine great protection this time and the connection is made to Maurice Harris Greensboro North Carolina he's the only receiver with a 100yd receiving game this year trying to cut it back to the outside was Peterson lost his footing but stumbles forward for a gain of close to four leads a team with five receptions 52 yds and they go to Jordan Reed for a first down to the Tampa May 10 don't give him that free release Peterson forced to the outside and just nowhere to go that's excellent defense nasson Johnson Taylor o up here working oneon-one four on first down so second and 14 and Smith do we know he can run it and he will slide down at the 5 yd line he'll be four yd short of a first down to make a decision unfortunate defender or receivers to beat you it was a huge play huge play Smith looking around throws to the end zone and tough to tell that Dockson held on the signal is a touchdown and how about Alex Smith did that left foot hit very close down there it didn't look like it did that's why I told why I think you need to bring five or some type of pressure because you can't cover that long he had all day to throw and daon did a good job of working that back line Alex Smith through a dart Tampa Bay Defenders last coverage on receivers and you hold him to a field goal there you're a touchdown obviously away from taking the lead now you need two scores and daxson finding a hole and now Smith throwing the fast ball right to him still nearly an entire quarter to play so more than enough time for Tampa Bay illegal formation number 39 of the kicking team that 5yd penalty is added to the end of the play it will be first and 10 Tampa Bay from the 30 yd line since a 2018 season and it's intercepted the rookie strowman his first career pick and just like that the Redskins are back in [Applause] business well this is strowman's going to come into your pitcher lining up almost like a safety and really just Ryan Fitzpatrick took strowman to the football right here there's never a lookoff strowman has a great break showing good hands and that's a rookie stepping up even though they're picking on you you're picking on you you stay patient and we got a chance to make a play 37 take the hand off to Peterson and Smith will hang on to it and he's inside second down and three Peterson with the flag down back to the line of scrimmage maybe look at the big fellow Moran Moses bouncing around offense number 76 y penalty still second down now I don't know where this is a hold watch this how that how what's the hold Wonder Wes dancing around where's the hold you got you can't make that call you can't make that call it's too easy you don't make that mistake as an official Smith delivers and a catch made to get to close to the seven yd line from Michael Floyd So it brings up third and very manageable here did and here they come and Smith just has to throw it away that's what they should have done the last series man I thought that was all my head you've stun me twice today I took my breath away on on the kicker feeling bad this one is [Applause] good horrific effort against the Falcons last week to an outstanding effort I know there's been self-inflicted ruins by the bucks but the Redskins defense has been most for the most part outstanding well he dick Stockton still going strong after all these years and certain are many best thoughts and prayers to our colleague Matt Millan batting they can score points in a hurry and Evans trying to make the acrobatic catch right there with him step for step was Josh Norman second down and 10 for Fitzpatrick fires to humre and and he's inside the Washington 30yd line 180 receptions ago here we go a nice player for them now fatrick finds Rogers and the ball is batted out of his arm into the end zone and the Redskins are going to recover the football Ryan Anderson was the one who punched that ball from behind and another costly take by the Buccaneers huge play by Anderson same [Applause] ARG and here is Adrien Peterson and he's up to the 38 yd line 10 yard down field winning football Anderson has been an emerging player this year for the Redskins you know they're in a an interesting position at that position you get excited [Applause] looking for the Home Run ball and he missed a wide open Vernon Davis did Alex [Applause] Smith it's the third time the Redskins were about to have the play clock run out on him prior to the exporation final time out STS time out we we we good [Applause] oh they run the option and Pitch it to bibs and he has a first half well I tell you what I don't think you can say enough about this Washington offensive line that was big Morgan Moses they'll run it again and back to the line of scrimmage maybe losing a yard is Peterson [Applause] take it one way come back the other way and Smith's going to run it going to bring up third down at 11 Tony bur from a back up starting at Right Guard and Morgan Moses game is not over yet as Smith is dropped on third down great job by Bill Callahan the offensive line coach also no question R baren Punt and Humphrey's a fair Catch of the 14 still have 611 to [Applause] go trying to score and score quickly and picked Patrick up to the 20 that'll be a gain of seven how deep they're off Norman's off sa the back about 25 [Applause] yds catch made by Deshawn Jackson his best game in quite some time he had 100 yard receiving G games and three of the first four of this season things don't change in this title 520 the debate will be on again about who should be quarterback looking for Jackson down the field excellent coverage back there by strowman two interceptions are you not getting that with with jamus Winston catch made by godwood in the 45 and gets back up on his feet picks up three more yards fumbles the ball and then picked up by Rogers who goes to the Washington 47 strowman was the one to picked it out of there strowman with an interception in his G the first of his career and they'll go right back to Godwin steps Out of Bounds at the 37 first half of the nature of the field [Applause] position neutral zone infraction number 998 defense 5y penalty first down well I've heard of Monday [Applause] Monday here's a straight drop by Deshawn Jackson second down had some incredible comebacks to come up short just two weeks ago against the Bengal and try to come back in this one Fitzpatrick hit as he threw and well underthrown with an eye on to Shawn Jackson down near the goal line [Applause] this is Rogers and he'll run out of bounds the first down to the Washington 22 yd line this game is not over yet secondary nothing over the head see how deep they are they're pass the first down markers receiver fell down got back up and still caught it it's God [Music] [Applause] one man rush but they apply pressure and Fitzpatrick's going to run it again and he's inside the five down to the four yd [Applause] line 11 play of this drive Bo they're burning a lot of time [Applause] here and then sacked fumbling Fitzpatrick able to get back on top of it just going to beat Donan Smith Defense number 24 after this is to the go automatic first down with speed see how he turned those shoulders bent those knees they punch it in it's Patrick and incomplete with an eye on Evans but not quite through yet F Patrick is thrown down the ball is lo loose and the Redskins have it before got caught lungene Smith is there carrian actually knocks it out Smith gets a sack carrian knocks it out and gets a recovery but go back to the previous play when we're being joined by the New Orleans Cincinnati audience when where New Orleans put a half aund up on them set up8 out first down he give it to Adrian Peterson and he'll lose a half yard keep the drive alive and then we had Mike Evans missed the opportunity to catch a touchdown and look as great as Evans has been for the first four years now fifth year of his NFL career and he's one of only three guys in the history of the game not had a good year Josh Rosen and Arizona took over for Bradford third down they pitch it to Peterson and still on his feet and Peterson able to Lunge ahead for a first down and that'll pretty much tie a rivon around this one for for graves because it's against his old team and his mentor Phil bich there's no doubt about that and the players responding helping each other I you're getting great leadership out of a guy like Trenton Williams and all the time he spent with some of these young players I think he's down yeah he's down I'm Sportsman like conduct on Tampa Bay throwing the challenge flag and is impermissible by rule due to no timeout it's a 15 yd penalty first down set up this will be bibs D There's Something About This bibs it's fun to watch when a team has scored three points or l in turn excuse me minus 19 on a year in turnover and still unbelievably the Washington Redskins in nine games has not had a single lead change for those of you that weren't with us when this game began well we mentioned the other names but throw in Austin Howard in there too cuz he was a part of that offensive line in and out of the lineup he'll be down just outside the 5yd line with 17 ticks remaining the Redskins they've got to win the fight it's patrickus to throw it and godlin will be tackled put to the 25 that'll be the final play of this one so the Washington Redskins still in command
