Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers escaped with a win on the road against the New England Patriots on Sunday night, 19-17.

Mac Jones led the Patriots down the field to set up Nick Folk for a potential go-ahead 57-yard field goal in the pouring rain. However, Folk’s kick would doink off the uprights and fall to the ground. Brady and the Bucs would go into the victory formation to seal the deal on their next possession.

The entire storyline going into the week was Brady vs. Belichick and who would get the better of who. But on a rainy and sloppy night on the field, Tampa Bay’s victory wasn’t exactly convincing. The Buccaneers were down 7-6 at halftime and really needed to dig deep to get into the game.
