Who saw the Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ 14-5 win over the Seattle Seahawks coming?

Probably not too many people. But that’s what went down.

It’s time to recognize the fact Tampa Bay is pretty good. And it’s been fun to watch second-year quarterback Jameis Winston develop as a polished passer. He went 21-of-28 for 220 yards and two touchdowns and an interception against a good Seattle defense.

Although Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman thinks wide receiver Mike Evans should have been flagged for Evans’ touchdown reception. Please, Richard… please.

Evans is coming along nicely and had two touchdowns on the day.

But even more impressive was the Bucs defense, which sacked Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson six times and held the Seahawks offense to a mere 245 all-purpose yards.

Yeah, that kind of performance will result in an NFL power rankings surge.
