But the former Hueytown High School star extended his streak of games with a touchdown run to three, and by doing so, lifted the Bucs to a 10-6 victory.

Tampa Bay needed a win against a good opponent this year in Jameis Winston’s year of growth and his game-winning touchdown drive was still phenomenal. However, the most damaging penalty came when Jeff Heath was called for defensive holding on a 3rd and 4 play late in the game.
“I haven’t looked at what would have to happen for us to win the division, which looks like the logical way to look at it”, Jones said. This is my job and I’m going to try to be the best I can be. “Great play call by Dirk [Koetter]”. There’s not one single issue or weakness to point to, and that’s what has to be most frustrating for the team and the fans.
“That is our main focus now”, Winston said.
The Bills defense was in excellent form, shutting down Ryan’s former team for a lot of the game, which gave their offense the opportunity to get them over the line. Bradley coming down with that interception was just exciting for our sideline. They made it count in a insane ending that sent the Dallas Cowboys to their first seven-game losing streak since 1989.
You really have to wonder if Smith was present and accounted for Sunday – or merely concussed. “We definitely were aware of where he was at all times”.
“He’s played in this league for a long time for a reason”, Garrett said. Defensively, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers yield 244.6 yards in passing and 107.6 yards in rushing. Many of those steps came at midfield or just on the edge of scoring territory. There was a penalty on that play, so why are we talking about that?
David added big plays in the backfield and the secondary. The Bucs defense held and stopped the Cowboys from extending their lead into the half, though. Part of it was the lack of execution and mistakes by the Dallas offense. Winston hasn’t had a turnover in his last four games. It might have been an “ugly’ win, but Winston didn’t mind”. In order for the Bucs to get to. 500 with consecutive victories for the first time in 2015.
The Bucs are now 4-5 and the future is looking a little brighter after a good defensive performances are probab, last-minute win.
“I don’t know what you are talking about”, he said with a sly grin.
Who do you guys think will win this game and what are your final score predictions? Dan Bailey finally proved human by missing a field goal, but he also snuck in a 53-yarder.
In the last 1:07 of the game, Winston went from hero to goat to hero again, and Smith checked his pulse. “Don’t leave in the fourth quarter”. The Cowboys looked decent, but are still desperately missing quarterback Tony Romo in their 27-33 loss to the Eagles.
“We definitely did”, said McDougald.
Andy Reid, one of the NFL’s brightest coaches, comes off a bye-week. Martin broke one 18-yard run, but only averaged 3.8 yards per carry.
Doug Martin also passed both Ricky Bell (1977-81) and Reggie Cobb (1990-93) with his 63 rushing yards.
With Vincent Jackson out for the third consecutive game with a knee injury, Evans had eight receptions for 126 yards for Tampa Bay. While the team’s sack total of 14 is better at this point than it was last season, the four takeaways are tied for last with Baltimore.
– Mike Evans couldn’t stop smiling Sunday, relishing the game within the game. The Cowboys threw a screen to McFadden on third-and-11 that almost worked but the ball was spotted inches short of the 30-yard line and the Cowboys punted. Chris Jones’ kick bounced out of bounds at the Bucs’ 30. Cassel converted a third-and-six with an seven-yard strike to Witten. No need to take a risk when a field goal would give the Eagles the lead but Sanchez gambled and lost.
And now the Cowboys are finished. In addition to beating Claiborne in the first half, he continued to create separation and make plays in the second half, helping Tampa move the ball.
“But at the same time, you do what you can with the time that you get”. The various dramas in the Dallas locker room got most of the attention.
The 53-yarder in the second quarter against the Buccaneers went in after hitting upright.

Trailing 6-3, Winston launched himself over the Cowboys defense and landed in the endzone. Cassel doesn’t seem to know or have hot reads against blitzes down, either. Jenkins has only played in 11 games over the past two seasons and he has the potential to be an offensive weapon for the Bucs.
