The Bucs’ third trip across to England to play in an International Series game ended the same way as the other two in defeat. Seven turnovers including five interceptions from Jameis Winston sent the Buccaneers to 2-4 on the season in spite of holding Carolina to 268 yards in total offense and two yards per carry on the ground. Seven sacks against an offensive line missing two starters proved too much for a 400-yard passing day to overcome.
