Tampa, FL (Sports Network) - Sam Bradford threw for 196 yards and a pair of
touchdowns on Sunday as the St. Louis Rams topped the Tampa Bay
Buccaneers, 28-13, at Raymond James Stadium.
Bradford completed 13-of-27 passes with one interception, while Lance
Kendricks had a huge day through the air, catching four passes for 119 yards
-- including an 80-yard touchdown pass -- for the Rams (7-7-1), who still can
finish with a winning record with a victory next week against the Seahawks.
One week after becoming just the 27th player in NFL history to reach the
10,000 rushing yard plateau, Steven Jackson ran for 81 yards and a score on 19
carries as the Rams bounced back from a 36-22 loss to the Minnesota Vikings
and have won four of their last five. Austin Pettis added a touchdown catch in
the triumph.
Josh Freeman threw for an impressive 372 yards on 30-of-54 efficiency with one
touchdown, but was intercepted four times. Freeman also ran four times for 18
yards, while Doug Martin collected 62 rushing yards on 18 carries.
Mike Williams hauled in seven passes for 132 yards and a touchdown, while
Vincent Jackson caught seven balls for 108 yards for the Bucs (6-9) who have
lost five in a row.
