WATCH: Atlanta Falcons and Tampa Bay Buccaneers Fumble the Ball (and lose it) on the Same Play

The Falcons and Bucs had a hard time holding on to the ball Thursday night. With roughly eight minutes to go in the fourth quarter the two teams had fumbled nine times losing seven of them. Tampa Bay had five of them (losing four) and Atlanta four (losing three).

Heck--the hands were so bad that on one play both teams managed to fumble the ball!

The sequence of events here is really pretty amazing:
  • M.Ryan pass short right to L.Toilolo to TB 23 for 13 yards (A.Verner)
  • FUMBLES (A.Verner), RECOVERED by TB-M.Barron at TB 22
  • M.Barron to TB 29 for 7 yards (D.Hester). 
  • FUMBLES (D.Hester), RECOVERED by ATL-D.Hester at TB 37.
Tack on an interception returned for a touchdown, Devin Hester's punt return, and a pair of sacks and anyone that started Atlanta's defense in their fantasy league is going to be real happy!
