With playoff implications on the line, the Buccaneers secured their spot while the Eagles faced a disappointing end to their postseason hopes. Baker Mayfield was the standout performer for Tampa Bay, throwing for 288 yards and two touchdowns, showcasing his ability to lead the offense effectively. Demond Claiborne added a solid ground game with 65 rushing yards, while A.J. Brown of the Eagles put up a stellar performance, racking up 156 receiving yards, though it wasn’t enough to turn the tide. Defensively, Yaya Diaby emerged as a key player for the Buccaneers, recording 1.5 sacks that pressured the Eagles' offense throughout the game.
