It’s so sad to watch this team give up 16 points and just 3 in the second half and lose. Unbelievably the defense has given up a season low 16 points twice, and both of those times the team has lost. The defense deserves better, although maybe they’re paying for their sins of the past where the offense would score in the 30s and lose. They held the Bucs to 3.0 yards per carry, just 166 yards passing (without Vaccaro or Breaux for much of the game!) and kept Jameis Winston without a touchdown (run or pass) for the first time ever, college or pros.
