The Tampa Bay Buccaneers almost put together a stunning come from behind victory in their Week 6 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons.

Jameis Winston returned to the starting lineup and kept the offense rolling. Unfortunately, the defensive problems continued as Matt Ryan torched Tampa Bay on his way to a 34-29 win.

The offense has been great, but the defense hasn’t found a way to stop the opposition. This week’s performance was no different. Despite settling in during the second half of play, the Bucs gave up 24 points in the first half and faced an 11 point deficit after two quarters.
