Tampa Bay Buccaneers on both sides of the ball. This game was a tale of two quarterbacks on offense with Jameis Winston playing a second game in a row of turnover free football while Cam Newton tossed four interceptions in the ball game. The Buccaneers defense Youth Kwon Alexander Jersey , led by All-Pro Andrew Adams (wait... who?), swarmed the football and the defensive line constantly got into Cam Newton’s face. Let’s take a look and react to what we saw in an all around good game by the Buccaneers on Sunday. The offense looked in control for most of the afternoon.For three quarters of the game it looked like the Buccaneers offense was cruising a bit. Jameis Winston had his second very good game in a row with a pair of touchdown passes that went to Chris Godwin and Adam Humphries, moving about the pocket and even scrambling to the tune of 48 yards on 5 carries. Jameis Winston looked the way a 1st overall pick should look, under control and in charge. The ground game struggled mightily throughout this game aside from a Peyton Barber 17 yard scramble. The other 19 carries between Barber (16/45 yds overall) and Rodgers (4/2 yards overall) went for a measly 30 yards total. The struggles on the ground showed late in this ball game as Tampa Bay’s offense was unable to really put the Panthers away and move the sticks when it needed to the most. The air attack had a rather reserved day from what fans have come to expect this season as the team only passed the ball for 249 yards on the afternoon. Winston connected with 5 different targets led by Chris Godwin’s 5 receptions for 101 yards and a touchdown. Adam Humphries played a good game catching 7 of his 9 targets and Mike Evans threw in 4 grabs for 48 yards of his own. Evans was victim to a few penalties in this game including his usual offensive pass interference that has plagued him throughout his NFL career. The offensive line struggled to create lanes for the running backs and allowed Winston to be sacked 4 times in this one. Donovan Smith had a few really poor snaps in this ball game. A more consistent offensive line likely would have led to some more scoring in this ball game. Luckily for the offense, the defense came to play in a big way.Is defense making its returning to Tampa Bay?The defensive front was on it all game long. Jason Pierre-Paul and the defensive line led a merciless attack on Cam Newton and his offensive line all game long. Pierre-Paul and Vinny Curry each landed themselves a sack. Gerald McCoy directly affected two pass plays that resulted in Cam Newton thrown interceptions. Carl Nassib was seen in the backfield a few times. Folks, it was a thing of beauty and a slight glimpse of what use to be in the days of Simeon Rice and Warren Sapp. Even if only for a day http://www.buccaneersauthorizedshops.com/authentic-donovan-smith-jersey , it was a great display of effort up front by the Buccaneers. Lavonte David is back and he played lights out in this ball game. David record a sack to go with his 12 tackles and a pass deflected that landed the football in the hands of Andrew Adams. Adarius Taylor added 4 tackles and deflected a pass as well that nearly went for an interception. The linebacking group looked much improved against the pass in this one. Kevin Minter got into the mix with a sack, his first of the season. The defensive backs showed some very positive signs, none more so than Andrew Adams and his 3 interceptions tying a Buccaneer single game record. Jordan Whitehead finished with 7 total tackles and Javien Elliot added an interception and 4 tackles of his own too. With a group as injured as this one here, the positives coming out of this game are all over the place. Cairo Santos and Bryan Anger were worth their money in this one. Santos continues to look like the savior on special teams for the Buccaneers. Santos nailed all 4 of his kicks that included 3 extra points and a field goal. Punter Bryan Anger was a busy man, punting 6 times for 267 yards. Anger pinned the Panthers twice inside their own 20 yard line in this game. Final reactions. The Buccaneers are looking like a complete team for the first time arguably ever under Dirk Koetter. The offense is playing relatively mistake free, the defense is creating turnovers and getting to the quarterback and the kickers are doing their jobs. The question now is this... is it all coming together too late? With the team looking as good as they have the last two games Gerald McCoy Jersey , is that enough to warrant some more time with Dirk as the head coach? Is Jameis Winston earning that 20 million for next year? Has Mark Duffner made this big of a difference and if so... what may have been had this move been made much sooner? With the team playing so well right now it’s only increasingly frustrating for fans to wonder, what if? Either way, this is a team to be proud of for the time being. Enjoy it Buccaneer fans. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers look like a good football team at the moment. As always, Go Bucs! All things considered, this loss will sting for a bit when you look back at how close the score was despite the feel of the game rarely warranting a positive feeling as fans watched from afar. The Buccaneers defense dug the team a steep hole in the first half and the offense fought an uphill battle to get back into the game. The defense appeared to turn things around to start the second half, only to falter when it mattered most as the Falcons traveled down the field to the tune of 75 yards on a 10 play drive that ate up 5 minutes late in the fourth quarter. The touchdown via Coleman put the Falcons up for good and gave the team a 31-22 lead with 6:28 left to play. The Buccaneers ultimately fell to the Falcons 34-29 Authentic Jameis Winston Jersey , leaving another sour taste in the mouths of coaches, players and fans alike. The offense put up points and yards but ultimately failed to deliver some late game fireworks. Jameis Winston had himself a good ball game but two turnovers proved costly. Winston finished the ball game with 395 yards passing to go along with his 4 touchdowns and 2 interceptions. The first interception was an ugly overthrow while under pressure but the second interception despite being a bit of a fluke play given the ball being bounced up for grabs, was avoidable all together if Winston finds Adam Humphries over the middle who was open on the play. It was a very Jameis-like game with ups, downs and some late game heroic opportunities, ultimately it was not enough. Ahem, 395 yards Youth Demar Dotson Jersey , 4 touchdowns was simply not enough. The running game seemed to get a bit of an adrenaline injection with Winston back at the helm as Peyton Barber had his best game to date totaling 82 yards on the ground at a 6.3 yards per carry clip. Barber added 24 yards on 4 catches including a touchdown reception. Ronald Jones saw some action with a single carry going for 3 yards. The more encouraging sign was the willingness to utilize Jones as a receiver out of the backfield as Jones caught 3 passes for 16 yards hauling in all of his targets in this match-up. The receiving corps did their jobs as is usually the case with 4 receiving at least 4 targets in the game from Jameis. The group was headlined by Chris Godwin and DeSean Jackson who combined for 10 receptions on 18 targets for 133 yards with Godwin finding the end-zone. The tight ends each reached pay dirt as Winston hit Cameron Brate on his lone target for a 15 yard score. O.J. Howard returned from injury and caught all 4 of his targets for 62 yards and a touchdown. The offense moved the ball well and possibly the most encouraging sign of all is despite the success overall, there is still a lot of room for improvement which is scary to think of. The offensive line performed admirably as a whole with the left side really shouldering the load. It was good to see the line open some lanes for Peyton Barber to break out through and the pass protection was solid despite a few breakdowns that affected the first Jameis Winston interception as well as two sacks on the day. The defense again had no answer early on and when it mattered most late. Up front, Jason Pierre-Paul went to work and landed the teams 9th sack on the year, his 5th personally. Vita Vea made an impact here and there and otherwise did what he was brought in to do. Gerald McCoy injured what appeared to be his calf and was seen in a walking boot after the game but had a quiet game overall. Curry, Allen and the rest of the defensive line struggled to create any pressure and Matt Ryan took full advantage of the time he had. Ryan managed to start the game off with double digit completions in a row before finally tallying an incompletion.Kwon Alexander and Lavonte David had solid games overall in what turned out to be Kwon’s best game of the season. The two combined for 3 tackles for a loss and 16 tackles in total. While the two helped out in shutting down the Falcon’s rushing attack, there was little aid to be offered in stopping the air assault on this Buccaneer defense. The defensive backs had arguably there worst game of the season which is quite the statement considering the start to the season this defense has had. Wide open receivers were to be found in all levels of the defensive backfield. Evans failed to make a stop short of the goal line on Sanu. Several passes went for 20+ yards again against this defense. Ryan Smith struggled http://www.buccaneersauthorizedshops.com/authentic-bryan-anger-jersey , M.J. Stewart was burned and Brent Grimes again looked every bit of his age in this ballgame. Despite 41 passes being thrown, the defensive backfield combined for zero passes defended and finished yet another game without an interception despite a multitude of passes being tossed. The defensive backfield is currently a cut artery with no sign of surgery to repair it on the way. The not so special teams... again. For a team that has had some kicking woes the last... well since Matt Bryant left the team, there is still no sign of a fix in the near future. Catanzaro missed an extra point but otherwise was able to make the rest. The team can’t seem to get any “automatic” points out of their kickers lately.Rodgers served as the kickoff return man and averaged 15.5 yards a return on his two attempts leaving the Bucs to start from inside their own 25 on both occasions. Jackson showed his shiftiness in making two men miss on his lone punt return that went for 9 yards and Humphries managed 6 yards on his punt return. In the end, there was very little to feel good about on special teams aside from Anger’s lone punt inside the twenty (2 total punts for 81 yards). The Wrap-Up. The Buccaneers cannot continue to play football this way. Turning the ball over simply can’t happen on offense because there is little hope to rely on the defense making a stop when it counts or forcing a turnover. The offense has to be elite in order to win and that’s sadly not a realistic way to win football games. Mike Smith (or somebody else?) needs to figure out a way to at least be below average to help this team win. Right now this team is in for another historically bad season on defense and it’s about to cost the entire staff it’s jobs if something doesn’t change.
