TAMPA, Fla. -- Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Dirk Koetter insisted Monday that his offensive line was not solely to blame for Sunday's 26-20 loss to Dallas. But the offensive line's struggles were most-glaring in the fourth quarter, when the game was tied 20-20.
The Bucs had overcome a 17-6 deficit to take a 20-17 lead in the third quarter, but in the fourth, the offense produced a whopping five net yards compared to 166 in the third. The difference-maker there was painfully obvious -- the offensive line and quarterback Jameis Winston had no answers for Dallas' pressure.
