HC Todd Monken's 4th quarter play call, Blake Whiteheart's recovery – On 3rd and 2, Monken dug out a tight end leak play that took advantage of Tampa Bay trying to stop the quarterback run to the right. With everyone flowing one direction, Whiteheart blocked, then leaked out to the left to be wide open. Watson gave him a floater to catch, but Whiteheart almost fell down. Thankfully, the big tight end recovered his balance by putting his hand on the ground, and WR Jerry Jeudy sealed his defender to let Whiteheart score what ended up being the game-winner.
