Five Things to Watch: Panthers at Buccaneers

Tampa Bay quarterback Jameis Winston didn't burn the Panthers' defense in the team' first matchup, but more importantly for his team, he didn't get burned.

Winston tossed just one touchdown pass but didn't turn the ball over in Tampa Bay's 17-14 victory over Carolina in Week 5.

"We have to make him uncomfortable," said defensive end Mario Addison, Carolina's season sack leader with 8.5. "We have to get him off his spot and keep the pocket collapsed."

It's not breaking news to say that the Buccaneers don't win as often when Winston doesn't take care of the ball, but still it's striking.
