The Bucs led 28-10 at the half against a team playing a rookie QB making his first start and who lost their star running back late in the second quarter. And then lost when kicker Matt Gay missed a 34-yard fieldgoal as time expired. Mike Evans had a monster game, Shaq Barrett became the third Buc ever with four sacks in a game and Ronde Barber went into the Ring of Honor. Yet every Buc fan went away distraught at another tough loss.
