The Lightning wrap up their 6-game road trip with a 4-3 shootout win in Boston in a game which they controlled play 5-on-5 but gave up 3 power play goals. The Bolts took 5 penalties for the second game in a row which is bothersome for this team that has so much talent but they do get 8 points out of 12 on the trip. USF loses redshirt senior QB Blake Barnett to season ending surgery which will end his career unless he applies for a medical redshirt, the Astros take a 3-1 series lead over the Yankees as dominant starting pitchers are controlling this postseason and the Chiefs' Patrick Mahomes leaves Thursday Night Football with a knee injury.

Jameis Winston Throws 5 INTs As Buccaneers Lose 37-26 To The Panthers In London Oct 14, 2019

Show notes

Rick Stroud and Eduardo Encina were in London to see Jameis Winston throw 5 interceptions to go with 1 fumble lost in what is probably the Bucs worst game of the season. On the good side Winston did throw some balls to his tight ends OJ Howard and Cameron Brate. The 37-26 loss to the Panthers also exposed the defense as the secondary had trouble all day long as jobs may be on the line. The Bucs now have a bye week to fix these issues before resuming their road swing to Tennessee and Seattle.
