Brady rallied the Bucs from a 27-3 deficit with help from three LA turnovers, tying the game on Leonard Fournette's 9-yard run with 42 seconds remaining.

Matthew Stafford outplayed Tom Brady in the final minute, moving the Rams into position for a last-second field goal that gave Los Angeles a 30-27 victory over the Buccaneers on Sunday after the seven-time Super Bowl champion led Tampa Bay on a late tying drive.

Matt Gay #8 of the Los Angeles Rams kicks the game-winning field goal in the last second against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the NFC Divisional Playoff game at Raymond James Stadium on January 23, 2022 in Tampa, Florida."We knew it wasn't going to be easy," Stafford said."I mean, we sure let 'em back in the game with a bunch of mistakes on offense. Our defense played outstanding. We've got to clean some stuff up, do a little better job in the turnover department.

"Man, he's the heart and soul of this offense," Stafford said."What he's able to do down in, down out, whether it's in the pass game, run game — he's an unbelievable competitor." Fournette also scored on a 1-yard run for Tampa Bay, which pulled within 27-20 on Brady's 55-yard TD throw to Mike Evans, who made the catch with Jalen Ramsey in pursuit with 3:20 left.

It was 20-3 at halftime, and the Bucs were fortunate their deficit wasn't bigger. With the Rams on the verge of scoring again in the closing seconds of the second quarter, Cam Akers fumbled at the Tampa Bay 1 and Tampa Bay's Antoine Winfield recovered to keep the defending champs to keep from falling behind.

Oh how those last seconds hurt.

Driven by my curiosity I took the first step by trying with just $3000 and it went well I can now boast of earning even in my sleep ! I received $21,900 in just 7 days with Geoffrey100k
