Tampa Bay Buccaneers were always the favourites against Brian Flores-led Miami Dolphins in Week 5. Tom Brady and Co. were at it right from the word go as the Bucs looked to put up a show for the home crowd. The 7-time Super Bowl winner found Antonio Brown in the 2nd quarter for their first touchdown pairing of the game.

The former Steelers man made a 62-yard dash to get into the endzone and get his 2nd receiving touchdown of the season. Brady found Brown once again towards the end of the quarter for their second combination of the game.
