ATLANTA (AP) — Rookie Desmond Ridder’s first two career touchdown passes powered the Atlanta Falcons to a 30-17 win over the playoff-bound Tampa Bay Buccaneers after Tom Brady added to his imposing list of records. Brady broke his own NFL record for most completions in a season before leaving the game late in the first half. The game was tied 10-10 when Brady was removed. Brady had been 11-0 in his career against Atlanta. Brady and Tampa Bay’s other healthy regulars started even though the Buccaneers clinched the NFC South title by beating Carolina 30-24 last week and were locked in as the NFC’s No. 4 seed in the playoffs.
