David’s pick sets up winning FG as Bucs beat Seahawks 38-35 in duel between Mayfield and Darnold
October 5, 2025
Lavonte David intercepted Sam Darnold with 58 seconds left and Chase McLaughlin kicked a 39-yard field goal as time expired to give the Tampa Bay Buccaneers a thrilling 38-35 win over the Seattle Seahawks. Baker Mayfield tied it for the Bucs with an 11-yard touchdown pass to Sterling Shepard with 1:08 left, and the Seahawks took over with the chance to drive for the winning score. But David’s pick on a deflected ball negated the need for any further heroics by Mayfield. He threw for 379 yards and two touchdowns, and Darnold threw for 341 yards and four TDs.
