NFL Power Rankings, Week 12: Rams bounce back with win over Bears

25. Tampa Bay Buccaneers (23)
Unfortunately for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Jameis Winston’s turnovers were a major issue during Sunday’s loss to the New Orleans Saints after the quarterback finished with four interceptions.
Every time the Buccaneers come off an impressive win like they did the previous week against the Arizona Cardinals, the team always seems to find a way to take a step back, which was exactly the case on Sunday with the Saints in town.
All season, one of the most popular topics of discussion surrounding Tampa Bay has been whether Winston is the right answer for the long run, and the more opportunities the Buccaneers give to prove himself, the more it seems like the whole process is a complete waste of time.
Most quarterbacks would love the opportunity to have the kind of weapons Winston is fortunate enough to play with on offense, and he will have no one to blame other than himself if things fail to work out in Tampa Bay since the talent has been there.
At 3-7, the Buccaneers are already another loss or two away from having to look forward to the offseason since this team clearly needs major help in numerous areas, one of which could include Winston.
