Buccaneers vs Broncos Week 3 Game Recap: Bucs blunder big at home, lose 26-7

Football is a game of inches, but it’s also a game of quarters. Let’s dive into a quarter-by-quarter breakdown of some Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ football. Today, the Buccaneers welcomed the Denver Broncos into Raymond James Stadium. Sean Payton's return to Tampa went kind of like it usually tends to.

First quarter:

The Broncos began Sunday's game with the ball and before long, had the lead. Bo Nix wasted no time motoring down the field, going 4/4 for 70 yards, and a fast seven points. Tampa's offense responded with a rapid three-and-out and Denver took the field for drive number two, inside of the game's opening six minutes.
