Washington hanging with Bucs, down 15-7

Jwdfz9SWbENt
Chris Simms lays out what Washington will need to do if they want to keep up with Tom Brady and the Bucs during Super Wild Card Weekend.

The Buccaneers had a chance to go up two scores on Washington. They chose to go for two, and Leonard Fournette was stopped short of the goal line.

So the Bucs hold a 15-7 lead with 10:03 remaining until halftime.

Ryan Succop made a 29-yard field goal to open the scoring but missed an extra point after Antonio Brown’s 36-yard touchdown catch from Tom Brady.

Brady’s latest touchdown throw -- the 75th postseason touchdown of his career -- was a 27-yarder to Chris Godwin.

It answered a 2-yard touchdown run by J.D. McKissic with 12:59 remaining in the second quarter to get Washington on the board.

Taylor Heinicke has been better than expected in his second career start, going 6-of-10 for 98 yards and an interception.
