Deja vu all over again. More turnovers, more mistakes and another loss ensued. The Bucs were down 14-3 early on the back of two turnovers inside their own redzone, one an errant snap and the other a terrible interception by Jameis Winston. Tampa Bay fought back to lead entering the 4th quarter but a 90-yard scoring drive put the Titans ahead for good and two final drives ended on downs and an interception respectively
