For live updates and fan reaction from the matchup, stay tuned to our chat all afternoon:

#Falcons add late meaningless TD. Buccaneers win 35-22.

Matt Ryan sacked again. Fumble. Buccaneers TD.

Game. Season.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) November 24, 2019

#Falcons have disappointed fan base a lot this year. A LOT.

Is today the biggest disappointment? Getting outgained 444-286. ATL has 229 passing yards vs. No. 31 pass D.

O-line with maybe worst performance of yr. ATL records 0 sacks vs. Winston, who leads QBs in sacks taken.

Koo converts another FG, but not sure I agree kicking there.#Falcons still down by 12 points & there's only 8:12 left. But it was fourth-and-16. Hard choice there.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) November 24, 2019

Matt Ryan sacked for fourth time today. Vita Vea just flat out beat James Carpenter on that play.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) November 24, 2019

Russell Gage converts a fourth-and-4 with a five-yard reception.

That keeps ATL's hopes in his game alive.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) November 24, 2019

Gay has missed two extra-points and had another one blocked today.

But he hits that FG. TB ahead 28-13. https://t.co/topp1vuCo1

Ugly final few plays on that drive, but Koo converts from 40.

Tampa Bay still leads 25-13. 1:40 left in 3rd Q.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) November 24, 2019

Ryan forced one there but avoids the INT. Facing second-and-18 now from the TB 26.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) November 24, 2019

Julio Jones back in & comes up with 12-yard reception.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) November 24, 2019

Buccaneers bail out Falcons with illegal hands to the face on a third-and-15 incompletion.

ATL gets a fresh set of downs at the TB 39-yard line.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) November 24, 2019

No harm comes from long Ryan INT. #Falcons offense has to get something going on this drive tho.

Julio Jones just walked out of the tunnel. Getting him back would help.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) November 24, 2019

Deep pass to Ridley & it looked like he initially had it.

But Carlton Davis ripped it from him for the INT. From bad to worse for #Falcons.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) November 24, 2019

Falcons announce Julio Jones has a shoulder injury. His return is questionable.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) November 24, 2019

Kendall Sheffield blocked PAT keeps the score at 25. ATL nearly returned the block for 2 points.

Exciting play. Doesn't end in points for Falcons, but could this jump start ATL? Stadium felts dead before the block. https://t.co/4GiczhVWvf
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) November 24, 2019

Outside of two takeaways, ATL defensive problems from the first eight games have returned.

TB was 4-for-6 on third down & 2-for-2 in redzone scoring TDs in first half. Zero ATL sacks.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) November 24, 2019

A real promising start for Matt Ryan turned for the worst in the 2nd Q.

Ryan has completed under 50 percent of his passes against one of the worst pass defense in the league.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) November 24, 2019

Big man TD for TB. Vita Vea hauls in a 1-yard TD. But Gay misses another PAT.

TB 19, ATL 10.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) November 24, 2019

Chris Godwin is just carving up the #Falcons D in this half. He has 125 yards & 2 TDs in the first half.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) November 24, 2019

TB WR Breshad Perriman was wide open down the sidelines for a huge gain.

But it looks like he may have only had one foot down after completing the catch. #Falcons challenge.

Under review.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) November 24, 2019

Devin White is having quite the first half. 7 tackles, 2.0 for loss & 2.0 sacks.

Just sacked Matt Ryan again on third down to end that last drive.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) November 24, 2019

#Buccaneers take advantage of the short field following a #Falcons punt deep in their own territory.

Chris Godwin hauls in his second TD. This one from 1 yard out. But Matt Gay missed PAT.

TB 13, ATL 10. 7:55 left in 2nd Q.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) November 24, 2019

Back-to-back TB sacks ends #Falcons drive.

ATL is having a lot of success with its passing game, but if Dirk Koetter abandons the run completely, the TB pass rush will be unleashed.

Shaquil Barrett, Ndamukong Suh and company are good at rushing the passer.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) November 24, 2019

Matt Ryan had 108 passing yards in the first quarter. Up to 121 after another completion to Julio Jones to start this drive.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) November 24, 2019

The 71-yard TD really hurts, but Falcons D playing tremendous outside of that one bad play.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) November 24, 2019

Qadree Ollison powers his way into the end zone on his second attempt from the 1.#Falcons finally score a TD off a takeaway.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) November 24, 2019

#Falcons D comes up with another big play. De'Vondre Campbell INT sets up ATL at TB 19-yard line.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) November 24, 2019

Back-to-back plays, looked like Ndamukong Suh could have been called for either a late hit on Matt Ryan and a horse
collar tackle.

Officials don't call either. Falcons drive ends in punt.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) November 24, 2019

Really nice throw to Julio Jones on third-and-3. Gain of 31.

Falcons at TB 37.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) November 24, 2019

We've seen the good & bad from Winston in this first Q.

The bad was his 19th INT of the year. The good? A 71-yard TD to Chris Godwin. Two #Falcons defenders had a shot to tackle him at point of reception & missed.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) November 24, 2019

#Falcons call run on third-and-short knowing they are going to go on fourth.

Run comes up short but then a false start on fourth-down try leads to punt. ATL doesn't take advantage of Trufant INT.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) November 24, 2019

Winston adds to his league-high INT total. That's 19 picks in 10 games & 1 drive. https://t.co/ZgN3M9V1pG
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) November 24, 2019

Three straight Matt Ryan incomplete passes inside the 10-yard line. Drive stalls at the 7.

Younghoe Koo hits chip shot FG. ATL ahead 3-0.
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) November 24, 2019

Graham only had 55 yards for the season before that catch https://t.co/rTePm3ONft
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) November 24, 2019

But he gets no opportunity to start today. Touchback. https://t.co/w1OfPlGmk4
— Dave Holcomb (@dmholcomb) November 24, 2019

I'm surprised at the amount of empty seats here at the Benz given #Falcons have won the last two games.

But still more than 10 minutes until kickoff.
