Rams-Buccaneers final score: Tom Brady becomes Tom Brady again, beats LA The Rams looked to bounce back this week following their 8th straight regular season loss to the San Francisco 49ers, as Los Angeles took a trip to Tampa Bay to try and right the ship and get back into the win column. They could not do so, suffering the most heartbreaking loss of the season thus far. Final score: Buccaneers 16, Rams 13 The Rams started the game with the ball and were forced to punt, as the offense went three and out on their first possession for the second straight week. The Bucs would get some solid field position, and turn it into a nice drive down the field. However, the Rams defense would hold, forcing a Buccaneers field goal inside the 5 yard line to make the score 3-0 about midway through the first frame. The 1st quarter would end with both defenses playing well, as the score remained 3-0 Buccaneers entering the 2nd quarter. But, at the beginning of the 2nd quarter, the Rams would breakthrough with a 69 yard touchdown pass from Stafford to Kupp to make the score 7-3 Rams lead.
