NFL Week 10 top plays: Bucs beat Seahawks in Germany, Vikings-Bills, more
Week 10 of the NFL season kicked off early Sunday with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers beating the Seattle Seahawks at Allianz Arena in the fourth game of the 2022 International Series and the first in Germany.
The crowd in Germany was loud from the start, and the division-leading Bucs (5-5) took their show on the road to stifle Seattle (6-4).
In the next window of games, the Minnesota Vikings are taking on the Buffalo Bills (FOX Sports’ Jay Glazer reported that Josh Allen will have to manage the pain in his elbow) and the Denver Broncos are facing the Tennessee Titans. In the late afternoon window, the Green Bay Packers play host to the Dallas Cowboys on FOX.
The night game features the San Francisco 49ers against the Los Angeles Chargers.
Here are the top plays from Sunday’s action!
Minnesota Vikings at Buffalo Bills
Liftoff!
All board the Jet! Justin Jefferson took off on Minnesota’s opening possession, collecting a 46-yard catch-and-run before hauling in a tough grab on a fly route for the Vikes’ first TD. Then it was griddy time.
One for Singletary
Devin Singletary had yet to score a rushing TD before Sunday’s game, but his first came in a big spot for Buffalo, tying the game at 7. He added another just minutes later to put the Bills up 14-7.
Cleveland Browns at Miami Dolphins
Jumping ahead
The Browns found pay dirt in just four plays, capping their opening drive with a dart from Jacoby Brissett to Harrison Bryant.
Deked out
Miami responded, driving 84 yards in 10 plays. Tua Tagovailoa froze the Browns’ defense on the culminating TD throw, finding Alec Ingold, who took care of the rest.
Houston Texans at New York Giants
New York, New York!
Danny. Dimes. The Giants’ QB1 was money on New York’s first possession, going four-of-four for 62 yards, and an early TD to Lawrence Cager.
Jacksonville Jaguars at Kansas City Chiefs
Defensive gem
Despite giving up big yardage to Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs’ offense on their first drive, the Jags’ defense came up with a clutch takeaway, forcing a fumble in the red zone to regain possession.
Hop, skip for six
Would you believe Kadarius Toney hadn’t scored a TD prior to Sunday’s game? The Chiefs’ newest WR was visibly elated to record the first of his career, helping K.C. take a 7-0 lead.
New Orleans Saints at Pittsburgh Steelers
Flex your muscle
That guy George Pickens is pretty strong, and he flashed the power his body possesses on a short handoff in the red zone, putting Pittsburgh up 7-0 in the first.
Detroit Lions at Chicago Bears
Mr. Wright
Despite parting ways with T.J. Hockenson, Detroit isn’t devoid of playmakers at the tight end position. Brock Wright freed himself up in the red zone to haul in the Lions’ first TD of the day, putting them up 10-3 in the second quarter.
Denver Broncos at Tennessee Titans (1 p.m. ET)
FINAL: Tampa Bay Buccaneers 21, Seattle Seahawks 16 in Munich
What’s ‘GOAT’ in German?
The Bucs struck first when Tom Brady hit Julio Jones on a 31-yard TD pass. It was an easy catch-and-run for Jones to give Tampa Bay a 7-0 lead.
Fournette delivers
The Bucs were looking energized in Munich, when Leonard Fournette barreled in for a 1-yard score to increase the lead to 14-0. The running back’s score capped an impressive 86-yard drive. That remained the score at halftime.
Metcalf the man
DK Metcalf powered past the marker to get a first down during the Seahawks’ first drive of the second half, which led to a 55-yard field goal from Jason Myers.
Seahawks picked off … who?
The Bucs tried a razzle-dazzle trick play, but Tariq Woolen intercepted Fournette’s pass to Brady. Yes, you read that right.
On the ensuing drive, the Seahawks drove into the red zone before Geno Smith fumbled, giving the ball back to the Bucs.
Brady der Mann
Brady continued to carve up the Seattle defense, throwing a 3-yard touchdown pass to Chris Godwin to put Tampa Bay up 21-3 early in the fourth.
Showing some life
Smith responded after his fumble, throwing a 21-yard TD pass to Tyler Lockett as the Seahawks cut the Patriots’ lead to 21-9.
Picked again!
Late in the fourth, the Hawks forced Brady into his first interception in 399 attempts, capitalizing on the takeaway with a 19-yard TD pass from Smith to Marquise Goodwin, on a fourth-down snap no less.
Terrific Tom & crew however, remained steadfast in the game’s final four minutes, gaining a number of first downs to force Seattle to burn its timeouts, and collect the victory.
