Tom Brady threw for 307 yards and two touchdowns and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers beat the New York Giants 30-10 on Monday night.
The Super Bowl champion Buccaneers (7-3) snapped a two-game losing streak as Brady avoided dropping three in a row for the first time since 2002.
Daniel Jones threw a TD pass to left tackle Andrew Thomas and the Giants (3-7) stayed close for one half before unraveling.
Down 17-10, the Giants drove to the Buccaneers 25 on the opening drive of the third quarter before Jones, under pressure from Devin White, threw incomplete on fourth-and-1 after rushing to the line to beat the play clock.
Brady then connected with Mike Evans on a 5-yard TD pass to extend the lead to 24-10. Evans set a franchise record with his 72nd touchdown, passing Mike Alstott. He made sure to keep the ball after giving away Brady's 600th TD pass to a fan earlier in the season.

Jones threw an interception to 310-pound nose tackle Steve McLendon on New York’s next possession, but Tampa settled for Ryan Succop’s 40-yard field goal despite starting at the Giants 37. It was McLendon's first career pick in 12 seasons.
Jones was picked by Mike Edwards in the fourth quarter and Succop hit a 30-yarder to cap the scoring.
Brady finished 30 of 46 with one interception. He improved to 6-1 against the Giants in the regular season but has lost two Super Bowls to New York, including one that prevented New England from a perfect season.
The seven-time Super Bowl champion leads the NFL with 29 TD passes and is second in yards passing with 3,172.
Four-time All-Pro tight end Rob Gronkowski was back in Tampa’s lineup after missing five of the previous six games. Brady targeted his buddy eight times, connecting on six passes for 71 yards.
Star running back Saquon Barkley returned for the Giants after missing four games with a sprained ankle but only had 25 yards rushing on six carries.
Jones was sacked twice by a ferocious defense that was missing defensive tackle Vita Vea due to a knee injury.
Brady came out firing, completing his first five passes, including a 13-yard TD toss to Chris Godwin. Godwin and Evans each ran the ball on an end-around during that drive. For Evans, it was his first career carry in eight seasons.
Brady started 10 for 10 before misfiring on a deep ball to Evans. On the next play, the 44-year-old scrambled 10 yards on third-and-4 to extend Tampa’s drive that ended with Succop kicking a 25-yard field goal that made it 10-3. Brady showed nifty mobility on the run before sliding into a defender. He came up fired up, signaling first down and screaming.
The Giants tied it at 10-10 after Evans let a pass bounce off his hands and right to Adoree Jackson, who returned the pick 5 yards to the Buccaneers 10.
Jones lofted a 2-yard TD pass to Thomas, who had to jump as he was backing up to haul it in. The 6-foot-6, 315-pound Thomas, wearing a brace on his right arm, was back after missing four games. He celebrated his first career reception with the rest of the offensive line circling around him.
