NFL Week 2 Analysis: Buccaneers K.O. Saints in 20-10 victory

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers snapped their seven-game regular season losing streak to the New Orleans Saints on Sunday in a hard fought 20-10 victory. The defense carried the team for the second week in a row as they forced five turnovers, sacked Jameis Winston six times, and scored on a Mike Edward’s 68-yard interception return. Tom Brady managed to generate one long touchdown drive with the banged-up Buccaneer offense, as they converted two forced turnovers into 10 points.

The Buccaneers defense started sluggishly, giving up an 11 play, 63-yard scoring drive which resulted in three points for the Saints.
