TAMPA, Fla. - In a first half that saw virtually nothing go right for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers against the Philadelphia Eagles, kicker Chase McLaughlin hit a franchise-record 65-yard field goal -- just one yard shy of the NFL's all-time record. It was the longest outdoor field goal in league history and cut the Buccaneers' deficit at the time to 24-6.
Tampa Bay was on the road to face Houston. It took a game-winning touchdown drive for the Buccaneers to escape with a narrow 20-19 victory. While the team is 2-0, Tampa Bay's offensive line continues to be ravaged by injuries. To begin the season, the team knew they would be without LT Tristan Wirfs. He's recovering from arthroscopic knee surgery in July. Additionally, RT Luke Goedeke suffered an injury in Week 2.
