Half-Time Report: Tampa Bay Buccaneers steal lead late against New Orleans Saints

Buccaneers steal lead late against Saints

Rookie quarterback Jameis Winston led the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to score a late first-half touchdown against divisional rivals the New Orleans Saints.

A crazy play happened in the first quarter, with Drew Brees fumbling a pass that would be accidentally kicked behind the quarterback, with Brees able to recover the ball on his own one-yard line.

Kyle Brindza put Tampa Bay ahead with a 55-yard field goal just before the end of the first quarter, but a Mark Ingram run gave the Saints a slender 7-3 lead.

However, Winston drove his team down the field with seconds remaining in the first half to throw a touchdown pass to Vincent Jackson and the Bucs head into half time leading 10-7.
