Jameis Winston shows glimpses of stardom in first win

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have to be pleased with the way Jameis Winston bounced back against the New Orleans Saints today. After a terrible outing in week one to which a lot of people overreacted, Winston looked a lot closer to the quarterback the Bucs thought they were getting when they drafted him with the first overall pick this year: calm, collected, poised under pressure and creating a lot of big plays at the right moments.

Winston's statistics alone were relatively impressive. He completed 14 of 21 passes for 207 yards for one touchdown and no interceptions, with three sacks and one fumble.
