TAMPA— Bucs QB Jameis Winston is all passion but not as much precision at this point in his career. When you see him pumping up his team before games — especially those in primetime — he is shouting and his eyes are so wide they look as though they might pop out of his end.

You love the fire, but in big games, Winston may need a little less fury.

Such was the case again Thursday against five-time Super Bowl champion QB Tom Brady and the Patriots.
