00:06Greetings from just across the New York, New Jersey border, in New Jersey, at MetLife
00:12Stadium here in East Rutherford.
00:16Coming up, we've got a good one in store.
00:19It's the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the New York Jets.
00:30Chase McLaughlin, the kickoff for the Buccaneers.
00:33Mike Tirico, Greg Olsen ready to get the preseason started.
00:37And off we go from East Rutherford.
00:41And he gets this back out to the 30-yard line.
00:45Reasonable field position.
00:46That's where the offense will get this one going.
00:50Geno Smith leads out the Jets.
00:52He's back with the team that drafted him in 2013.
00:55This now his 14th season in the league.
00:59Judging by our conversations with the coaches, Mike, I think it's a pretty safe bet.
01:03We won't be seeing a lot of this guy.
01:06I think what they're trying to do is just get him under center, knock off some of the rust
01:09of the offseason, and get him a couple live reps before he starts in week one.
01:14At the end of the day, you just can't replicate this style of live action in practice.
01:19So whether you're an established veteran like him or a young quarterback, these reps in the
01:24preseason are invaluable.
01:26And he'll be brought down just shy of midfield.
01:30Going to save some of those from the regular season.
01:33That's a first down.
01:34That's good for our Jets.
01:35First down.
01:37First and 10 at the 49-yard line.
01:40Smith going to keep this himself.
01:42And he will not be able to turn up field.
01:46He'll drop him behind the line.
01:49And that play just really looked doomed from the start, didn't it?
01:52It just didn't look like the timing.
01:53It didn't look like he was confident in his read.
01:55And that time he pulls it, nowhere really to go and take him down for a loss.
02:04A second down throw for Smith.
02:08That's going to be incomplete.
02:10Very good there.
02:12Contact jarring the ball loose.
02:14And it's going to force third down.
02:20From the shotgun, it's Smith.
02:25That's thrown right side, but incomplete.
02:29He was looking for Garrett Wilson there.
02:32And that'll set up fourth down.
02:35So on fourth down, out comes Austin McNamara to punt for New York.
02:41Cameron Johnson deep to return this.
02:44And no return forthcoming.
02:46It's a touchback.
02:47And will come out to the 20-yard line.
02:50Baker Mayfield brings the Buccaneers out.
02:53Greg, he's 31 now.
02:54Year 9 in the league.
02:56Former number one overall pick out of Oklahoma back in 2018.
03:01Starting all the way back in the spring, Mike,
03:03there has been months of preparation building up for this very game.
03:07And a lot of the guys on the sideline that have been around for a long time
03:10in these preseason games might not feel all that important.
03:14But I promise you, that young guy who's putting an NFL helmet on
03:17for the very first time running out of that tunnel.
03:20These games go a long way, not only to making this current roster,
03:24but trying to make a career out of playing in the NFL.
03:28I had a defender draped all over him.
03:31Incomplete.
03:32Good work to body him up.
03:34And set up.
03:35A third down.
03:38And ten yards to go.
03:41They go play action with Mayfield.
03:45He'll get rid of it and complete it.
03:49And he'll be out of bounds, well short of the line to gain.
03:53And that'll set up a fourth down.
03:59Here's Dixon's punt on the way.
04:03A fair catch.
04:04He's going to call it and take it right around his own 30-yard mark.
04:10Dixon's offense ready to get going with their second possession.
04:14And Greg, week one here in the preseason.
04:17Look, we know a lot of the guys who are going to make the roster,
04:19but there's still a lot to happen in training camp
04:22that players can find their way to a spot on the opening Sunday.
04:26We hear these stories all the time, Mike,
04:28where there's a little buzz about a guy in training camp
04:30and coming out of the local beat reporters
04:32and maybe the coaches talking about him a little bit.
04:34But then there's the surrounding question is,
04:36is he going to make the roster?
04:38And it's really what they do in these preseason games,
04:40away from practice,
04:42that ends up being the deciding factor.
04:44And how often do we see, not only do they make the roster,
04:47but in some cases, they go on to really have critical roles
04:50down the line as the season unfolds.
04:53So I know to a lot of fans and some of the veterans,
04:55these games don't feel like a whole lot,
04:57but to some guys on that sideline,
05:00their entire career is in front of them.
05:02They'll try to run for it.
05:04And he won't quite get there.
05:06Close, but comes up about a yard short after that stramble.
05:11A great reaction by the defense.
05:14At first, Mike, it looked like there was enough room out there
05:16for the quarterback to pick this one up himself,
05:19but they were able to rally to the ball,
05:20and I think the officials are going to mark him just short.
05:28Buccaneers offense heading out,
05:29and their offensive coordinator is Zach Robinson.
05:32Zach, the O.C. for the Falcons last couple of years
05:35before moving here in the division to the Bucs back in January.
05:45The drive begins at the 20.
05:47Here's first and 10.
05:57Baker going to give it to Irving,
05:59and he'll be brought down up around the 38-yard line.
06:03I'm going to save some of those for the regular season.
06:07That's a first down.
06:08A game of 18 on the play.
06:10First down, Tampa Bay.
06:22On play action, Mayfield.
06:24Headed left, fine time.
06:26That one pinballs around, but it is incomplete.
06:31Trying to hook up with Cade Otten that time around.
06:35It's second down.
06:44Now the pitcher down here.
06:47And nothing doing there.
06:48He's going to go down behind the line.
06:51So much of what makes a toss play so good
06:54is it allows you to get the ball on the perimeter of the defense
06:57really quickly,
06:58and it doesn't stress all of your backside blocking.
07:01But on the downside,
07:03it does get your running back running east and west.
07:06They're running sideways for the first couple steps,
07:09and for the defense that can run to the ball,
07:12they're able to get you down for a loss.
07:14And the Brown on third down is going to be incomplete.
07:18And that's now their second time failing to convert here
07:21in the early going on third down.
07:23And talking to them this week,
07:25third down efficiency was going to be
07:26such a critical element of the game.
07:28They knew first and second down
07:30were going to be hard to pick up big chunks,
07:31and they were going to find themselves
07:33in these manageable third downs.
07:35And when you get opportunities to hit them,
07:37you've just got to make these plays.
07:39So now the Jets offense ready to take over once more.
07:42They'll search for the first points of this game
07:45as they begin the drive on first and ten.
07:49They're going to start this drive on the ground.
07:52It's home.
07:52And he's able to force his way through one man,
07:55but he can only muster about a yard on that play.
07:58Second down.
07:59A gain of a yard brings up second and nine.
08:03Ready!
08:05Set up!
08:06Ready, set up!
08:10On the bootleg, it's Smith.
08:12Oh, and this one's going to wind up incomplete.
08:15That's one you'd think he'd be able to corral.
08:18He can't find the handle,
08:19and it's going to lead to a third down.
08:21And nine yards to go.
08:28From the gun, it's Gina.
08:32Taking off, he'll try to get there.
08:37Big, big game for the Jets there.
08:39Thirty-three yards.
08:42The defensive line has to do a better job of contain rushing,
08:47especially on third down, Mike.
08:48You can't rush one-on-one.
08:50You have to rush as a unit.
08:52Keep the quarterback in the pocket,
08:54and when you let him get loose,
08:56this is what's going to happen.
08:57Cooper going in motion.
09:01They try the zone read.
09:03It's Smith on the keeper.
09:05Cooper, and he'll be hauled down at about the 35-yard line.
09:09A game of 11 on that one.
09:12Good for a Jets first down.
09:15First and 10 at the 35-yard line.
09:25Now, Gino.
09:29That's caught left side by Cooper.
09:32He's not going to get too far tackled after a gain of just a yard.
09:37One-yard gain brings up second and nine
09:40at the Buccaneers' 34-yard line.
09:44Cooper going in motion.
09:51On second down, a run with Paul.
09:54And he moves down to the 25.
09:56That's good enough for a first down.
09:59It just seems like every time this guy touches the ball,
10:02he makes something happen,
10:04and not all of his runs are always going to be positive.
10:07He's kind of one of those guys that's going to get a zero, a one, a two,
10:10but it's the home run threat.
10:12It's the big plays that really took the scales in your favor,
10:15and when you can generate those big explosive plays on the ground,
10:20man, it makes such a big difference for the offense.
10:22At the box, 26-yard line.
10:26They'll run it out of the gun,
10:28and it's home.
10:29And some good lock-ins.
10:31Bringing you a gain of nine as we get to third down.
10:36A gain of nine brings up third and two.
10:41There we go.
10:42Working out of the gun,
10:43Smith,
10:44short one caught by Sadiq.
10:47And he's going to have the first down.
10:49They convert on third,
10:51and it sets up a first and goal.
10:54First down.
10:56First down and goal to go.
11:00On the fake to Hall,
11:02here's Geno.
11:05And that will wind up incomplete.
11:08Triple zero's on the clock.
11:09The first quarter has come to an end.
11:12Or to come.
11:14This is the NFL on EA Sports.
11:18Nothing, nothing is the score.
11:20We're back to upstate New York in just a moment.
11:25The Jets have it here to start quarter number two.
11:30Nowhere to go.
11:31He is taken down.
11:33What once looked like a promising drive
11:36has suddenly hit a little bit of a roadblock here, Mike.
11:38They're in scoring position, yes.
11:40But now on third and goal,
11:42following that second down sack,
11:44this defense has a shot to come away,
11:46only giving up three.
11:48A quick throw on the RPO is complete.
11:51Nice job there.
11:52Getting the ball to your slot receiver
11:53and then letting him get to work.
11:56It's a nice feeling as a quarterback
11:57when you can just have a short throw
11:59and still result in a big game.
12:04Sanders' kick is good.
12:07And the Jets will take a 3-0 lead.
12:11So after a drive of that length,
12:13I guess you feel like you want to come away with something.
12:16But, you know, anytime you settle for a field goal,
12:18it always feels to me like for the defense, it's a win.
12:20So you put a drive like that together,
12:23it feels like you've got to punch it in for six
12:25and don't really give themselves the opportunity.
12:28The Bucs offense ready to take over once again.
12:32The offense is a little slow to start percolating.
12:343-0 the score as they begin this drive
12:38for the first and ten.
12:41Here's the change of pace back.
12:43That's Kenneth Gainwell.
12:45And no room to be found.
12:47We'll get this back to live scrimmage.
12:49And that's it.
12:51They'll try again.
12:53It's second and ten.
12:55At the 27-yard line.
13:00Browning from the gun.
13:03He finds his tight end, Keith.
13:05And he's going to get this to the 37-yard line.
13:10It'll be a pick-up of ten.
13:12Good for a Buccaneers first down.
13:15Well, we give a little credit here defensively.
13:17Even though they allow the first down,
13:18we've seen defenses really struggle
13:20bringing this big tight end to the ground.
13:22And they didn't allow him to pick up a bunch of yards
13:25after contact, but he was able to get just enough
13:27to pick up the first down.
13:28And he gets this up close to the 40.
13:32The veteran Bobby Wagner in there on the stop.
13:35A gain of two.
13:36Brings up second and eight.
13:40Second down, eight yards to go.
13:47From the gun, here's Browning.
13:51And that ball in and out of his hands.
13:53It is incomplete.
13:55I might tell you, after the game,
13:56he should have come up with that one.
13:58He does it.
13:59And a third down comes up.
14:01And eight yards to go.
14:04Another little play action here with Browning.
14:07Hingsley, Enid Barring.
14:09Getting in there for the sack.
14:12It's got to feel great as he gets this preseason off
14:15on the right foot.
14:17It's Riley Dixon coming on now
14:19as he is on to punt for Tampa Bay.
14:26The Jets take over first and 10.
14:27The Jets offense getting things in order
14:29as they try it out for this next possession.
14:32They'll look to build on their 3-0 lead
14:34as this drive starts with a first and 10.
14:41They'll run with the forward backer,
14:44Braylon Allen.
14:45And he shows off his strong legs
14:47running through one tackle.
14:49Give him a gain of eight.
14:51Ball on the 28-yard line.
14:53Here's second down and two.
14:55Second down and two.
15:04A gain there of 23 yards.
15:07And the Jets have a first down.
15:09A gain of 23 yards.
15:11And the Jets first down.
15:15First and 10 at the 49-yard line.
15:18They'll run here with Allen.
15:20And he's not going to get away.
15:22They're going to bring him down
15:23on the other side of midfield.
15:26Last play went the wrong way.
15:28It sets up second along.
15:30It's second down and 12.
15:35Bubnick.
15:37That's caught.
15:38It's Braylon Allen.
15:39And he's not going to be able to get away.
15:42Good defense on the perimeter.
15:44It'll be a loss of yardage.
15:46Well, it comes to the line.
15:48Not an easy one to convert.
15:49Third and very long.
15:52Taylor, the tight end, is in motion.
15:57On third and long.
15:59Here's Bubnick.
16:01That one too far out in front.
16:04It is incomplete.
16:06Here's Austin McNamara now.
16:09As he's on to punt for the Jets.
16:16That's going to be out of bounds.
16:18No return.
16:19And the drive's going to start
16:21just inside the 20-yard line.
16:23Here's the Tampa Bay offense.
16:24They're going to take over once more.
16:27They'll start it here with a first and 10.
16:36From the gun, it's Browning.
16:39That's complete to his running back, Kenneth Gainwell.
16:43And he will not get away.
16:45Terrific open field tackle.
16:47Gets him down behind the line.
16:49It's a loss of two.
16:49It's a second and 12 at the 17-yard line.
16:54Browning to throw on second down.
16:57First, it's incomplete.
16:59He did hit the pass, but he got drilled
17:01before he let it go.
17:04They got there in a hurry.
17:06And if they make it, luckily for him,
17:07and he saw that free rusher coming
17:09and at the very least was able to get that ball out
17:13to prevent the sack.
17:15That'll be complete to Gainwell.
17:17And he got out of bounds up close to the 30-yard line.
17:22That's the second time they connect on this drive.
17:25This one, good for 13 yards.
17:28It'll be first down and 10.
17:33On the ground, Gainwell.
17:36And he'll be tackled up around the 45-yard line.
17:40We're going to save some of those for the regular season.
17:43That's a first down.
17:45We've seen this trend throughout the league, Mike.
17:48Offensively, everyone wants to have depth
17:50at the running back position.
17:52Yeah, it's great to have one guy,
17:53but if you can have two or three
17:55that can all come in and contribute on the ground,
17:58that's the goal.
18:00And we're seeing it here.
18:01And he's going to be corralled right at the line of scrimmage.
18:04That is good work defensively.
18:05They hold him to no game.
18:07Brings up second and 10.
18:09He'll try again here.
18:10Second and 10.
18:15A play fake, and here is Browning.
18:19And he just does get that one away.
18:21He would be chased down and forced the awkward throw.
18:25Maybe he's fortunate that all it is is an incompletion.
18:28And 10 yards to go.
18:31To the air, Browning here on third down.
18:34He'll let this go deep.
18:40And his offense is going to be all set up
18:43with a short field and a chance to extend that lead.
18:47You know, Mike, any time a team can go nickel or dime
18:50and come off the field with an interception,
18:52I just am constantly reminded of the importance
18:55of defensive back depth when you're building an NFL roster.
18:58I mean, think back.
18:59This is not the old NFL base 3-4, base 4-3.
19:03Offenses are going to roll out 2, 3,
19:064 high-level wide receivers at you
19:08in this pass-first modern era.
19:10If you can't roll out 5 DBs
19:12and all of them hold their own
19:14and be trusted to hold up,
19:16you are going to struggle
19:17defending these pass-first modern offenses.
19:21From the 47 now,
19:23they'll work with a second and 7.
19:27And in motion is Smith.
19:34Klubnik to throw here on second down.
19:38And they're going to get to him
19:40and take him down back on the other side of midfield.
19:44And 8-yard loss on the third.
19:45Kalijah Kansi!
19:47It's now 3rd down.
19:47In for the sack.
19:49It is a loss of 8.
19:51And now it's 3rd down.
19:55And they will get another playoff.
19:57We have reached the 2-minute warning.
20:00We'll come back to MetLife Stadium after this.
20:05So, backed up after the sack.
20:07And now it's 3rd and long.
20:13Bupnik now from the gun.
20:16Oh, this pass rush dials in right now.
20:19They get him again.
20:21These pass rushers,
20:23they love these situations
20:24where they can just pin their ears back
20:26and go after the quarterback.
20:28They knew they had a chance
20:30to put an end to this drive.
20:31and they didn't let it go to waste.
20:34On is McNamara and Adam punched it away.
20:40Uh-huh.
20:41A very nice return.
20:43He takes it up past the 35-yard line.
20:47The Buccaneers offense back onto the field
20:49for their next possession.
20:51They'll see if they can put something together here,
20:54beginning with 1st and 10.
20:59Okay, ready!
21:12Here's Brownie.
21:15That's cut.
21:16It's Tez Johnson.
21:17And they will bring him down
21:19on the other side of midfield.
21:22First time he's caught a ball here tonight.
21:25And it is good for a 1st down.
21:33Now, Brownie.
21:35Our 1st down throw there is incomplete.
21:39So, as halftime looms, Mike,
21:40they have to find a way to capitalize
21:42on this drive right here
21:44and make sure they end the half
21:46with some sort of points.
21:48Now, that incompletion,
21:49not ideal,
21:50but at the very least,
21:51it stops the clock,
21:53catch your breath,
21:53get back in the huddle,
21:54and this next play,
21:56it's got to be a
21:57gotta-have-it-best play call.
22:02Pass interference.
22:07You actually think
22:08this is a really good job
22:09by the receiver, Mike.
22:10There's a little bit of a nuance
22:12to route running
22:12where you can introduce
22:14some of the contact,
22:14and it almost makes it look like
22:16it's the contact
22:17started by the defender,
22:18and I think we see
22:19a little bit of this here.
22:21So, crafty move by the receiver
22:23and draws the flag.
22:24Second and ten.
22:26It's now second and ten.
22:32On play action,
22:33here is Browning.
22:36He's gonna keep it himself.
22:38For the pylon,
22:40he's in.
22:41Jake Browning.
22:43Touchdown, Tampa Bay.
22:47That is a heartbreaker
22:49for the defense.
22:49They took away
22:50what he wanted to do
22:51in the air, Greg,
22:52but that scrambling ability
22:53gets him to the end zone
22:55for the touchdown.
22:56And the reason he was able
22:57to take advantage
22:58with his legs here, Mike,
22:59is he made a fast decision
23:01realizing there was nowhere
23:02to go with the ball.
23:03The amount of guys
23:04the defense had in coverage
23:06took those passes away.
23:07He tucked the ball down,
23:09took advantage of the space,
23:10and he was able
23:11to take it all the way.
23:13But Brooklyn,
23:14good on the extra point.
23:15And the Buccaneers
23:16move out to a 7-3 lead.
23:24Chase McLaughlin
23:25to kickoff
23:26for the Buccaneers.
23:27They didn't leave
23:28much time on the clock
23:29to put together a drive
23:30here at the end
23:31of the first half.
23:32And the kickoff's
23:33coming their way.
23:36He'll come across
23:37the 20
23:37and take him down
23:38at the 21-yard line.
23:41The Jets offense
23:42gonna take over
23:43just before the half.
23:45They'll begin
23:45with 1st and 10.
23:54Taylor,
23:55the tight end,
23:55is in motion.
23:58On 1st and 10,
23:59it is Kluknik.
24:01That will be
24:02taken by Allen.
24:05And they're gonna
24:05mark him down
24:06up past the 35.
24:09Now the Jets
24:10gonna use
24:10the first of their timeouts.
24:12That's good
24:13for a Jets
24:14first down.
24:161st and 10.
24:17Taylor,
24:18the tight end,
24:18is in motion.
24:21Here is Kluknik
24:22on 1st and 10.
24:24Our throw here,
24:25right side,
24:26falls incomplete.
24:28See what they have
24:29for 2nd and 10.
24:31It's 2nd down
24:32and 10.
24:35We got it,
24:36we got it,
24:37we got it.
24:38We got it.
24:41We're out of the gun.
24:42Here is Kluknik.
24:45Oh, a lot of chances
24:46on that one.
24:47It was bouncing around,
24:49but it falls incomplete.
24:51So after back-to-back
24:53incompletions,
24:54it is now 3rd and 10.
24:59Looking to throw again
25:01is Kluknik.
25:03This one just too far
25:05for the receiver.
25:06Out in front of him.
25:07That one falls incomplete.
25:08Jeremy Ruckert
25:10was the intended target.
25:12And that's going to lead
25:14to a 4th down.
25:19They'll go.
25:20Here's Kluknik.
25:23He'll let this one go long
25:25for Williams.
25:26That's going to be incomplete.
25:29They took a shot
25:31on the final play.
25:33Prayer not answered.
25:34And that is how
25:36this first half
25:37will come to an end.
25:40All right, Mike.
25:41Thanks very much.
25:42Scott Hanson,
25:43good to be with you
25:43from the Orlando
25:44EA Sports Studios
25:45with an abridged
25:46halftime report.
25:47This one shaping up
25:49to be a tight one
25:49as evidenced
25:50by the scoreboard.
25:51Both these teams
25:52playing it close
25:53to the vest
25:54in the first half.
25:55What will happen
25:55in the second half?
25:56Let's find out
25:57as we send it back
25:58to the stadium
25:59and our commentary team,
26:01Mike Tirico
26:01and Greg Olson.
26:33We'll see you next time.
26:44Scott, thank you.
26:46Both teams
26:46trying to find
26:47the right formula
26:48as they come out
26:50for the second half.
26:51It's about to get underway.
26:53And they'll opt
26:54not to return this,
26:55but since the both
26:56did hit in that landing...
26:58...

29:51...
29:52...
29:52...
29:54...
29:55...
29:55It's clubbed in.
29:57A throw there on second down.
29:59Going to be incomplete.
30:00The quarterback's giving his guy a chance.
30:02He's saying, hey, I'm putting this ball up there downfield,
30:05and I'm thinking my guy's going to come down.
30:07Can you out-rebound the defender and give credit to the defense?
30:12Right spot.
30:13Played it well.
30:15Oh, he's going to be bottled up and taken down.
30:18They got him.
30:20I love blitzing defensive backs.
30:23So when they blitz the corner, Mike, they call it a cat pressure.
30:26He's the corner cat.
30:28Man, it's so hard for the offense to get it beat on him.
30:31Who's accounting for him?
30:32And in this case, nobody was.
30:35And after the sack on third down,
30:37this was a little bit more of a difficult attempt,
30:39but it just seems like with the caliber of these kickers these days, Mike,
30:43just steps up, ho-hum, bangs it through.
30:47This will be returned from the sixth.
30:50And they'll bring him down just shy of the 30-yard line.
30:55The Buccaneers offense ready to see what they can do with this next possession.
30:59Their lead is just a point.
31:02They begin it on this drive with first and ten.
31:08The drive begins with a run by Williams.
31:12They have that play dialed up defensively.
31:15Stopped them in the backfield.
31:16Loss of the yard.
31:19Lost one on the last play, so now it's second and 11.
31:25From the shotgun, it's Daniel.
31:28Flush to his right.
31:30Just trying to avoid the rush there.
31:33He's hit as he threw,
31:35and the pass is incomplete.
31:38If he's able to get the ball out of his hand on time,
31:40that's probably a completion,
31:42but there's a little hesitation for one reason or another,
31:45and by the time he lets it go,
31:47he has a defender bearing down on him
31:50and leads to an incomplete.
31:52Nice job there defensively to keep him in front of the marker.
31:55And it's going to bring up fourth down.
31:58The Buccaneers is getting their punter out there.
32:01He's on to punt it for the fourth time tonight.
32:07And good coverage by the punt team.
32:09They stop him before he can get any return cranked up.
32:13But Jets offense and Braylon Allen ready to take over again.
32:18And really, he has not produced a whole lot of highlights
32:22as we thought about coming in,
32:24and that he could be a featured back in this one.
32:26Instead, no running lanes,
32:28no room to operate,
32:30stuck at the line of scrimmage,
32:31and generally taking this offense out of its flow.
32:36So first and ten now,
32:38they'll start from the 22.
32:45They'll run with Allen.
32:48He's fighting to get back to the line of scrimmage,
32:50but can't get there.
32:51Dropped for the loss of a yard.
32:54It's a loss of a yard.
32:55Brings up second and 11.
32:57At the 21-yard line.
32:59Taylor, the tight end, is in motion.
33:02Throwing on second down.
33:04Clubwick.
33:06He'll get this complete to Allen.
33:08And he's going to be taken down to 37.
33:12A gain there of 16 yards.
33:15Good for a Jets first down.
33:18First down.
33:20First and ten at the 37-yard line.
33:23A play fake, and here's Clubnick.
33:25His pullback releasing,
33:28and he's going to bring it in.
33:30He's close to a first down.
33:32It's a gain and nine.
33:33Nice pitch and catch on first down.
33:34Second and one.
33:36From the 46.
33:37Here's second down and a yard.
33:41On the ground, it's Allen.
33:44And he's going to have the first down.
33:46A yard.
33:46Across the 50 to the 48.
33:50That's good for a Jets first down.
33:54First and ten at the 48-yard line.
34:01Another run, and again, it's Allen.
34:04And he's going to be bottled up quickly
34:06after a game of about one.
34:09Rakeem Nunez-Rochekes there to make the tackle.
34:13Ball on the 47-yard line.
34:15Here's second down and nine.
34:18That's quickly out to Smith.
34:22And he is out of bounds, down at the 21.
34:26A gain of 26 yards.
34:28Offense rolling right along on this drive.
34:30Another first and ten.
34:33First and ten at the 21-yard line.
34:36Taylor, the tight end, is in motion.
34:41On the handoff, it is Allen.
34:43He's able to get away from one man,
34:45but the reinforcements were there fast.
34:48He's taken down for a loss on the play.
34:51A loss of a guard.
34:52That'll bring up second and 11.
34:54Blue at the 22-yard line.
35:00To throw is Klubnick.
35:04Ah, the pressure.
35:05Good.
35:06He's in on him.
35:07He will go down.
35:09A loss of nine on the play.
35:11This isn't real complicated.
35:12You're just not going to win a lot of NFL games
35:14when you continue to give up sacks at the rate that they are.
35:17I mean, this is just a complete disaster for this offensive line.
35:21And if they don't get it fixed,
35:23this game could be a runaway.
35:28And this one incomplete on third down.
35:31They cannot connect.
35:33I think he predetermined that third down throw.
35:36And even though the coverage was tight,
35:38he still tried to fit the ball in there anyway.
35:40And it ended up falling incomplete.
35:43I think if he goes through his progressions
35:45and he has a little bit more trust in his protection,
35:47I think there's an easier throw to make out there.
35:51Job number one on this drive.
35:53Find a way to get the lead.
35:54They, of course, would have loved to score a touchdown, Mike.
35:57But three points here,
35:58that's a pretty good consolation prize
36:00as it moves him out in front.
36:03He'll get this past the 20
36:04before he's brought down shy of the 25-yard line.
36:08The Bucs' offense ready to take over once more.
36:12They trail by two.
36:14And we'll start this drive with first and 10.
36:20Here we go, here we go.
36:23Look at my feet.
36:25On the ground, this is Williams.
36:28And we'll mark him down just shy of the 40.
36:32Going to stop this here for injury.
36:35One of the Buccaneers is down.
36:36You hope against Hope here in the preseason,
36:40especially that it's not too serious.
36:49So from the 39, they come up on first and 10.
37:00Working out of the gun, it's Daniels.
37:03Forced out wide.
37:06Taking off.
37:07And he's going to be very close to the first down marker.
37:11Out of bounds after a gain of nine.
37:14He tried to buy all the time he could,
37:16but when he saw that space,
37:18he quickly turned from thrower to runner,
37:20and he's able to pick up a nice gain on first down.
37:24A run with Gainwell.
37:26Can he get away?
37:28No!
37:28He's going to be taken down behind the line.
37:32Great job at that linebacker for timing his blitz.
37:35He didn't give any indication to the offense that he was coming.
37:39He's able to get through that hole and take the ball carrier down for a loss.
37:44Third and two.
37:46Here's Daniels.
37:48Out to his right.
37:49He'll try to run for it.
37:52Really good game.
37:54Taking this all the way down inside the 40.
37:57The defense decides to come with a blitz here on third down,
38:00and it's a little feast or famine.
38:02You're counting on getting home and getting to the quarterback.
38:05Give credit to the offensive line.
38:07Not only do they protect,
38:08they buy enough time for the quarterback to escape the pocket.
38:11Turns himself into a runner.
38:13Picks up the first down.
38:17The throw here down the field will fall incomplete.
38:22Pass intended for Johnson,
38:24and it'll bring up second down.
38:26Picks up second and two.
38:33On the carry, it's Williams.
38:36The ball's out,
38:37and the Jets come up with the takeaway.
38:41And as you can see with that fumble, Mike,
38:43it really just goes back to the fundamentals
38:45of how they're taught to carry the ball,
38:47and they talk about the points of pressure,
38:49and the biggest thing, really, Mike,
38:51is you want the front tip of the ball,
38:53the part where your fingers cover,
38:55to always be higher than the back tip of the ball.
38:58So often you see that front tip go down,
39:00and it makes it so much easier for that defender
39:02to kind of rake it out.
39:04So you want pressure against the outside of the ball,
39:06both tips, the inside of the ball,
39:09and then keep that front point up.
39:12Nice job pushing.
39:13Goodwill would be tackler.
39:14Eight of about three.
39:16Second down.
39:17Nice job by the running back making the first guy miss,
39:20but it's the pursuit by the entire defense.
39:23Even though he doesn't get him down on his first try,
39:26the rest of his guys are all rallying to the ball,
39:28and they bring him down for a short game.
39:33And the defense there to meet him.
39:35They'll hold him to two and bring up third down.
39:38The tackle made at the 47-yard line.
39:41It's a gain of two.
39:43Brings up third and five.
39:48And we will not get another snap here.
39:51That is going to do it for this third quarter of play.
40:17Here now, third and five.
40:28Here's Klubnik.
40:30He'll try to work the screen with Allen.
40:33He's looking for room on the edge,
40:35but could not find any.
40:37They've tracked him down behind the line.
40:39And it's fourth down.
40:41On now comes the puck team for the Jets
40:44as they try to play the field position game here,
40:48protecting a fourth quarter lead.
40:52The Bucs take over.
40:54The Buccaneers offense getting their final instruction
40:56before heading back onto the field.
40:58They'll do so with first and ten.
41:11On the give, it's Williams.
41:13Trying to find somewhere to go by defense.
41:16Another idea.
41:16They stop him.
41:17That'll be no game.
41:19Running back looked a little unsure of himself
41:22on that carry there, Mike.
41:23You have to think back to that fumble earlier in the game.
41:26How much is that still weighing on his mind?
41:28He didn't really seem to attack that hole
41:30like we've seen in the past.
41:32He gets stopped and no game.
41:34And that's another brutal drive for an offense
41:37that has struggled to catch the ball up to this point.
41:41And yes, you can nitpick about ball placement and whatnot,
41:44but listen, the reality is at this level,
41:47if it hits your hands,
41:48you have to find a way to come down.
41:50He manages to get the throw away and completes it.
41:54The rookie quarterback making plays out of the pocket
41:57gets his guys a first down.
42:00As this game continues to come down to the wire, Mike,
42:03it just reminds us,
42:04this is where quarterbacks earn their keep.
42:06You are judged by how you play in these critical moments.
42:09And fourth quarter, down a score,
42:12it doesn't get much bigger than this.
42:14And he broke through the initial contact,
42:16lines up, getting about three.
42:18It's second down.
42:19He's brought down at the 42-yard line.
42:22A three-yard pickup brings up second and seven.
42:33Operating from the gun, it's Daniel.
42:36That one, incomplete.
42:38Good job.
42:39It's textbook there.
42:40Separating the man from the ball,
42:42and it'll bring up third down.
42:44I got high standards for offensive players,
42:47but in this case, Mike,
42:48I think I'm giving all the credit to the defender.
42:51He timed that one up perfectly,
42:53and what could have been an easy play
42:55ends up as an incomplete.
42:58On third down, they'll throw with Daniels.
43:01Contact as he delivered it there in the pass
43:04is incomplete.
43:05Good job defensively to make sure
43:07he could not find the throwing lane,
43:10and it sets up fourth down.
43:14Third time out there for the punt team,
43:16and the kick's away.
43:20And he'll get a few yards back here on the return
43:23before being forced out of bounds.
43:27The Jets offense getting set to get back to work.
43:30Belied is two,
43:31and they're going to try to make something happen here,
43:34starting with a first and ten.
43:38Play fake.
43:39They're going to throw with Klubnik.
43:41That's right side.
43:43Caught by Taylor.
43:45This is a great example of why teams want to stay out
43:48of what they call passing down,
43:50where a defense doesn't have to honor the run.
43:52In this case, they do,
43:53and man, the play-action pass just works off of that
43:57and can really lead to some chocolates.
43:59And they'll be set up now.
44:01Up past the 40 at that one.
44:04First and ten.
44:06First down.
44:08First and ten at the 41-yard line.
44:12Allen going to get it again.
44:16And he'll be marked down at the 45-yard line.
44:19But Allen going to save some of those for the regular season.
44:23That's a first down.
44:25That's another Jets.
44:27First down.
44:28First and ten at the 45-yard line.
44:29And in motion is Smith.
44:33On play-action.
44:35Here's Klubnik.
44:37Looking down the field there,
44:39but it falls incomplete.
44:41Tim Patrick was the intended target.
44:46And it'll lead to a second down.
44:50Send a man in motion right.
44:57Klubnik to throw here on second down.
45:01That is caught left side by Taylor.
45:04Get about six before he's taken down.
45:08Let's see what they do on third and four.
45:11Makes it third and four.
45:17Now, Klubnik.
45:18He'll get this one out to Allen.
45:22And they're going to be set up in the red zone.
45:25They've got it inside the 15.
45:29Still get a first down at the 1.
45:31First and ten.
45:33They go from the 11.
45:35First and ten at the 11-yard line.
45:37A run now with Isaiah Davis.
45:40And a strong first down run.
45:43A pickup of Knott.
45:45Setting up second and short.
45:47A gain of nine.
45:48Brings up second and one.
45:50At the two-yard line.
45:54They'll go play-action here with Klubnik.
45:58They did everything they wanted to do on that drive.
46:01And now a chance to really make it an important lead.
46:05Mike, for that touchdown there.
46:07They're an extra point conversion from extending this lead to a two-score game.
46:11And at this point in the fourth quarter, I think they feel pretty good about their chances of holding on.
46:16Jason Sanders on for the point after.
46:22He knocks it through.
46:24And the Jets will make it a two-score game as they are now up nine.
46:31After the touchdown, Myers is back to boot this one away.
46:37Jaquan Jackson on the return.
46:40Now an opening past the 30.
46:43They finally get him down, but he gets all the way up close to the 40-yard line.
46:49The Bucs offense getting those helmets back on, ready to head out for their next possession.
46:54Let's go back and scroll through some of their drives.
46:57One theme, Greg, is going to keep emerging throughout.
46:59Too many turnovers.
47:01Yeah, I think it's been a combination of just carelessness, right?
47:04Some sloppy play offensively that has caused some of them.
47:07But also, let's give some credit to the defense.
47:09I think in a lot of the cases, they're also forcing these takeaways,
47:13punching the ball out, going up for interceptions.
47:15They've been in the right place at the right time.
47:18So, a combination of really good defense at times, and at times, really bad offense.
47:28From the 42-yard line, here's 2nd and 7.
47:35Off the play fake, here's Daniels.
47:39Back to the rookie, Ted Hurst.
47:42And he's down inside the 40-yard line.
47:46A pick-up of 21 on that connection.
47:50It's a first down for Tampa Bay.
47:58There is a handoff to Tucker.
48:01A gain of 4 as he's taken down.
48:04Tucker, the ball carrier.
48:06Dane Belton on the stop.
48:08A gain of 4.
48:10It's now 2nd and 6.
48:12From the 33, here's 2nd and 6.
48:19Growing is Daniels.
48:21He'll take a shot here.
48:23Back to the end zone.
48:25The ball deflected at least a couple of times.
48:27And he'll fall to the ground.
48:29It's incomplete.
48:31They need to get it to the 27.
48:34This is 3rd down.
48:37To throw is Daniels.
48:40A quick slam into the hands of Johnson.
48:43As a play caller, those are the plays that just drive you crazy, Mike.
48:47You think you're going to pick up the first down.
48:49You get tackled just shy of the sticks.
48:51And now, a little bit of a gamble here on 4th down.
48:55Trailing late.
48:56They've got to go here.
48:58It's 4th down.
49:01Daniels going to try to sneak it.
49:03And that's not going to work.
49:05The defense comes up with a 4th down.
49:084th quarter stand.
49:09And forces a turnover on downs.
49:14So, the offense finds themselves in a tough situation.
49:17They're down by 2 scores late in this game.
49:20They know this is a prime opportunity.
49:22They need to play for a touchdown.
49:24And instead, the defense makes a huge stand.
49:28And they've got a chance now to close this game out.
49:31Last play went the wrong way.
49:33It sets up 2nd along.
49:35It's 2nd down and 12th.
49:37But Nick now from the gun.
49:42And he'll just bite the ball and throw this one away.
49:45It was a good idea.
49:46It didn't force anything there.
49:47But now it's going to bring up 3rd down.
49:50And 12 yards to go.
49:56He'll get this out to the left left.
49:58And he'll be taken down as the clock ticks towards 2 minutes to play.
50:03A gain of 3.
50:05It's 4th down.
50:072 minutes remain in the 4th quarter.
50:11Greg and I back for the conclusion.
50:14In a moment.
50:16On comes the punt team now for the Jets.
50:19He'll come on to kick for a 6th time tonight.
50:27Here comes Jackson on the return.
50:30And he's going to be brought down after a short return.
50:33And that's where his team will get possession of the football.
50:38So, here are the Buccaneers.
50:41Down by 9.
50:42A minute 52 to play.
50:47They'll drop the throw.
50:48Moving outside the pocket.
50:52That one down the field.
50:53But they cannot connect.
50:55And it's incomplete.
50:57Can't exactly put my finger on it.
50:59But it just seems like this entire game, Mike, this passing game and this quarterback specifically,
51:04they've just been off.
51:06And whether it's missing these big shots downfield like he did there or just simple underneath layups,
51:11there's just something about him today that doesn't look right.
51:14And it's a big part of the reason they find themselves trailing here in the 4th quarter.
51:18Buccaneer, 1st down.
51:24Daniels now on 1st down.
51:27Left side, he's got it to Hurst.
51:29And he will be out of bounds right around the 35.
51:34Plenty of room after that catch.
51:37Big gainer of 23.
51:40They've got all 3 timeouts left, but need to score quick.
51:44It's 1st and 10.
51:49To the air again is Daniels.
51:52Quick throw out wide.
51:54It's caught.
51:56Nice job here by the defense.
51:57Did a good job just covering up everything for the most part.
52:00So, once this ball was caught,
52:03really didn't have much of a choice but to just head out of bounds
52:05and pick up a modest game.
52:09Throwing again.
52:11Daniels.
52:12Throwing left side there, but it is incomplete.
52:15This is one of those situations that plays directly into the hands of the defense
52:19because think, like, they know this offense has to be one-dimensional.
52:23This has to be a pass.
52:25So, what do they do?
52:25They bring in extra defensive backs.
52:27They clog up the back end.
52:29And at the end of the day, there's just nowhere for the offense to go with a ball.
52:34It's a pickup of 13 yards.
52:37It's good for a Buccaneers first down.
52:39A gain of 13 yards.
52:42First down, Tampa Bay.
52:46Keep it in the air.
52:47Here's Daniels.
52:49That's taken in by Sharp.
52:52And the Bucs are going to have 1st and goal coming up.
52:55Tackle made at the 3-yard line.
52:57First and goal at the 3-yard line.
53:01Here we go.
53:02Go.
53:03Daniels going to throw again.
53:05Rolling right.
53:08That one broken up in the end zone.
53:11It's incomplete.
53:12Wow, the coverage excellent there.
53:14It'll bring up 2nd and goal.
53:17That was a perfectly timed hit.
53:19And I think it actually saved 6 points, Mike.
53:22He got there just as the ball did.
53:24And I think it was the contact that separated him from the ball.
53:29On 2nd down, it's Daniels.
53:32That one to the end zone.
53:34But incomplete.
53:37You can feel them starting to press a little bit.
53:39Especially with this passing game.
53:41They find themselves so close to the end zone.
53:43We've got to get it over the goal line.
53:45And we've got to be a little bit more accurate.
53:47We've got to be a little bit smarter with the ball.
53:49And right now.
53:51And this is going to be a touchdown.
53:54Hold everything.
53:55They are not done yet.
53:59And with that late score, it's going to give them a little bit of late life here, Mike.
54:04But remember, the next series of events is very unlikely.
54:07They need to get the onside kick.
54:09And then likely a Hail Mary situation.
54:12So while they definitely have a little bit of a chance.
54:15I think it's pre-slammed.
54:17I think it's pre-slammed.
54:21But Broccoli, good on the edge of the court.
54:24And the Bucs will cut it to a two-point lead.
54:27Buccaneers 14.
54:34In need of a recovery and a quick field goal, here comes the onside kick.
54:44And this one is covered by the hands team.
54:47They secure it here in the final seconds.
54:50And that should be enough for them to get out of here with a W.
54:55They'll come up first and ten at the 40.
55:00On the handoff, it's Allen.
55:02And he will be taken down.
55:04We'll see if they want to use those timeouts.
55:07But this one is about done.
55:10Brings up second and nine at the Buccaneers 39-yard by.
55:15So this one in the win column for the Jets as they start things out with a victory.
55:21Here in the first week of this preseason.
55:30So that'll just about do it for Greg Olson and our entire team.
55:34I'm Mike Tirico.
