49ers-Buccaneers score update: Colin Kaepernick, Mike Davis dominate in opening drive touchdown

The San Francisco 49ers are without Carlos Hyde but that did not slow them down on their opening drive against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Colin Kaepernick and Mike Davis combined to lead the 49ers 75 yards for a touchdown and 7-0 lead.

Davis is starting in place of Hyde, and he had the game-opening touchdown, rushing four yards behind excellent pulling blockers. He had an eight yard run early in the game, and the 12 yards is only six back of the 18 yards he had entering the game.

Kaepernick is making his first home start since returning to the starting lineup, and he completed two big passes on the drive.
