Brent Grimes Injury: Updates on Buccaneers CB’s Quad and Return

The team’s 19-17 road upset of the Kansas City Chiefs lifted the Bucs (5-5) back to.500, one game behind the NFC South-leading Atlanta Falcons with six weeks remaining in the regular season.

The outcome ended a five-game winning streak for the Chiefs (7-3) and stopped a 10-game stretch of victories for the home team at Arrowhead Stadium.

“But, hey, I’m going to give this game ball back to Coach Koetter”.

He reiterated that in the locker room after the game. Their defense couldn’t get Tampa Bay off the field on third downs, when Jameis Winston was able to repeatedly find Mike Evans and the rest of his wide receivers for first downs. Stick around. We’ve got all of the pre-game analysis before the match-up. Smith and the offense is not a big-play one, but with an effective defense and a solid kicker in Cairo Santos, the Chiefs are that stubborn team in the National Football League that just gets the job done.

WR Mike Evans led the way with 105 yards on six receptions as he tallied the 11th 100-yard game of his career in just 40 total National Football League outings.

By the time Kansas City finally forced a punt, there were just 8 seconds to go.

They sit in the number one seed position in the AFC and have looked every inch a Superbowl team. Tampa Bay had four impressive drives, taking the ball to the Kansas City 17, 12, 4 and 23-yard lines.

“We can’t make mistakes. We pull together”, said Chris Conte, who made the crucial interception of a Smith pass in the fourth quarter.

Red zone trouble affected the Chiefs right out of the gate.

The Bucs ran the ball up the middle four times on the opening drive of the third quarter, marching 52 yards on nine plays to take a 12-10 lead on Aguayo’s fourth field goal. They were 0-for-3 in the red zone the previous Sunday at Carolina.

It was there that quarterback Jameis Winston says he and a host of his younger teammates were high-fiving one another and reveling loudly in the triumph when veteran defensive tackle Gerald McCoy stopped the celebration dead in its tracks.

“I think that set the standard for our organization”, Winston said. For him not to play, he tried his heart out to be there, and I just sent him home to just get off his leg and get that thing better. “That’s a difference maker”.

“We have to capitalize”. “They’re not going to grow, all right?” “We just go about our business”. KC is holding opponents to just 18.7 points per game despite allowing 378.8 yards per contest.

The Buccaneers (5-5) certainly did, going 11-for-16 on third down. Rookie kicker Roberto Aguayo, who infamously missed half of his first 10 field goal attempts this year, was 4-for-4 against the Chiefs and has now hit seven straight.

Police believe the elder Winchester, an employee for Southwest Airlines, was gunned down near an airport parking ramp in retaliation for the assailant losing his own airline job.

EYES ON PETERS: Quarterbacks have avoided Peters after he piled up five interceptions in the first five games.

Houston has not played after surgery in February to fix the ACL in his left knee.

It didn’t help that their secondary was missing top cornerback Marcus Peters, who has been dealing with a hip pointer.
