5 winners (and 3 big losers) from Buccaneers 23-20 win over Falcons

Tampa Bay Buccaneers football made its return in more than one way on Sunday in Atlanta. A new season is officially upon us but it was made abundantly clear that the some of the same old problems still exist.

It was a wire-to-wire photo finish for the Bucs, one that required more luck than skill. But a win is a win, and for the third straight season that's how Tampa Bay's season starts; this time a 23-20 nail-biter over Atlanta.

The win not only gets the Bucs out to a 1-0 start but gives them a critical divisional win out of the gate.
