Offensive line woes, penalties plague Buccaneers in 27-17 preseason loss to the Steelers

Blame it on the heat or humidity if you’d like. But the Tampa Bay Buccaneers offensive line could not seem to hold things together for a full four quarters during their 27-17 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers. They maybe got a decent first quarter, however, that can’t even be said with 100-percent certainty. And the penalties also didn’t help.

Things looked bad on the first drive of the game when Tampa Bay put their offensive line to the test early with three straight runs. After Ke’Shawn Vaughn picked up nine yards on three carries, the Bucs went for it on fourth down.
