Bucky Irving scored twice as Tampa Bay stunned Dallas 24-16 on the road to claim its first win of the season.
Tampa Bay has its first win of the season, and Bucky Irving is the reason. The Buccaneers running back found the end zone twice as Tampa Bay beat the Dallas Cowboys 24-16 on the road.
The result was a surprise. Dallas had home field, but the Buccaneers stayed composed and turned their chances into points. Irving was the headline performer and gave the offense the spark it had been looking for.
A 24-16 final means Dallas was always within reach, but Tampa Bay did enough to hold the Cowboys off. For a team still chasing its first victory, closing out a road game against a high-profile opponent is a real statement.
The win gives the Buccaneers something to build on, and Irving's two-touchdown showing makes him a name to watch in Tampa's backfield. Dallas, meanwhile, has plenty to sort out after letting this one slip at home.
