Walk the Plank! 3 Buccaneers who under-performed in loss vs. Titans
By Cory Kinnan
There is plenty of blame to go around as the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have dropped their third straight game, this time to the Tennessee Titans.
Here we go again; another week down, and another Tampa Bay Buccaneers loss. After losing to the Carolina Panthers and New Orleans Saints before the bye week, the Bucs came back from their week off and dropped a game in Nashville in a 23-27 defeat at the hands of the Titans.
Outgaining the Titans in yardage, time of possession, and first downs, there is little reason why the Buccaneers should have lost the game. While quarterback Jameis Winston threw an early pick that led to seven points, and center Ryan Jensen snapped the ball before the offense was set, leading to a fumble, this game was very much in reach.
The officials also missed a blatant fumble that would have been walked into the endzone as the Titans attempted a fake field goal; this fumble and return would have also have been the difference maker in this game as well. There was plenty of blame to go around in this devastating loss that now drops the Bucs to 2-5 and puts their season on the ropes.
In this loss, here are three Bucs who performed poorly, thus contributing to a loss to the Titans.
