Watch: The Buccaneers Do The Safety Dance
Kim Klement Neitzel-USA TODAY Sports

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers defeated the Philadelphia Eagles 32-9 on Monday Night Football to advance to the divisional round against the Detroit Lions.

While the Pewter Pirates offense was clicking on all cylinders, it was the defense that came up with several huge plays. As we mentioned in another post, the Bucs stopped the Eagles dreaded “Tush Push” to the surprise of many. But it was Anthony Nelson pressuring Jalen Hurts into intentional grounding in the endzone that really deflated the team from Philadelphia.

After the play there was only one thing left for Nelson to do, the Safety Dance. “We can dance if we want to. We can leave your friends behind. ‘Cause your friends don’t dance. And if they don’t dance. Well, they’re no friends of mine.”

The Bucs now travel to take on the Detroit Lions Sunday at 3pm in the NFC Divisional Round.
