Tampa Bay Buccaneers 7 vs 35 San Francisco 49ers summary: stats and highlights | NFL Week 14
The Brock Purdy legend grows as Mr. Irrelevant is irrelevant no longer. The rookie QB led the San Francisco 49ers to a blowout win over Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Purdy had 185 yards and two passing touchdowns, and a rushing touchdown in the first start of his NFL career.
Purdy’s puts on a show
All the focus was on Tom Brady returning to California and playing his childhood team, but it was the QB on the other sideline who stole the headlines. After Jimmy Garoppolo went down with a season ending ankle injury last week against he Dolphins, Purdy came in and led the Niners to a big win over Miami.
On Sunday Purdy came in as the starter in just his second game ever, and looked like a poised veteran leading the offense. The Niners marched right down the field and got on the board after just two and a half minutes when Deebo Samuel took an end around 13 yards to the house for the games’s first TD.
The Bucs would have a chance to get on the board on the next possession, but a missed Ryan Succop field goal would be the first sign of things to come on another stagnant night for the Tampa Bay offense. They would go three and out on their next three possessions, and in that time Purdy and the Niners turned the game into a blowout.
Two pass TDs and one rush TD for Mr. Irrelavent
On the first play of the second quarter, Purdy used his legs to get in to the end zone as he dropped back, surveyed the scene and ran it in for a two yards to make it 14-0.
His arm was on display on the next two Niners touchdowns when Purdy found Christian McCaffery out of the backfield for a 27 yard TD pass midway through the second quarter. Right before the end of the half, Purdy connected with Brandon Aiyuk on a 32 yard TD to put the game out of reach going into the second half.
The Niners would add to their lead 28-0 lead just a minute into the second half after picking off Brady three plays into the third quarter. Christian McCaffery went on a 38 yard sprint to the end zone two plays later to put the Niners up by five touchdowns.
Deebo carted off the field
The only thing that went wrong for the Niners on Sunday is seeing Deebo Samuel go down with what was diagnosed as an ankle injury. There is no prognosis yet, but the initial reports out of San Francisco indicate it is not a serious injury.
The Niners had the game wrapped up in the third quarter and were able to rest their starters for a good portion of the second half as they set their sights on their Thursday Night divisional matchup with the Seattle Seahawks. The Buccaneers still lead their division, but have big divisional games in two of their last four games.
Just a couple plays after the inteception, McCaffery took it 38 yards to the house as the Niners took their foot off the gas for the rest of the game looking ahead to their Thursday Night game against the Seahawks.

The Bucs and the Niners come into today as the leaders of their division, and both teams can give themselves a little more of a cushion with a win at Levi.

NIners back at Levi
The game tonight will technically be the Niners fifth straight home game. It’s true they went to Mexico City to play the Arizona Cardinals, but that seemed like just as much of a home game as when they play at Levi Stadium. Tonight George Kittle and Deebo Samuel know that they will be carrying an extra burden with Brock Purdy under center against one of the top defenses in the league.

Bucs are in the building
Was last week’s comeback division win against the Saints what the Bucs needed to ignite their season? They have been sputtering all season, and the offense is the reason for their struggles but you have to think that Tom Brady can’t be shut down all year long. Is today the day? It won’t be easy against one of the top defensive units in the league.

Another Brady comeback last week
Tom Brady and the Bucs took 57 minutes to get into the end zone against the Saints last week, but by the time Cade Otton caught the first TB TD it seemed like the Buccaneers were out of time. A three and out that took less than 30 seconds off the clock set up a game winning drive for Tampa Bay and Brady. Brady was on the money in the final drive and hit Rachaad White in the end zone with three seconds left to complete the late 13 point comeback.

49ers last week
San Fran suffered a devastating blow last week when they saw Jimmy G get carted off the field with a season ending injury against the Dolphins. Garoppolo was the second Niners quarterback to be ruled out for the season, but the Niners didn’t seem to flinch after seeing their QB1 go down. After giving up a touchdown on the first play from scrimmage, the Niners settled down and took control of the game under third string QB Brock Purdy. The SF defense forced four turnovers and Purdy passed for two TDs and 210 yards in his debut game for the Niners.

We are live from San Fran
Hello everyone and welcome to San Francisco where two teams that seem destined for the playoffs will give us a potential postseason preview today from the Bay Area. The Niners have been rolling over the last month and come into today riding a five game win streak after taking down the Miami Dolphins in an interconference clash of the titans last week. The Bucs are back at .500 after their dramatic win over the Saints last Monday Night, but it has been far from a pretty season for Tom Brady and the Bucs.
