The Buccaneers were riding high following last week’s beat-down of the Bears, but were quickly brought back down to earth. The Bucs came into the game missing a key player on each level of the defense, which did not bode well. The pass rush never got to Keenum and made Tampa pay, hitting several big plays.
In addition to Brent Grimes, Kwon Alexander and Chris Baker being out, a few more Bucs players got dinged up during the game. Tampa Bay lost for a reason and the key plays that will be mentioned are why.
