       The Titans defeated the Buccaneers, 42-14, in Week 1 of the 2015
       regular season in Tampa.
       The Buccaneers dropped their season opener, 42-14, to the Titans
       at Raymond Jame Stadium in Tampa on Saturday night.
       Tight end Austin Seferian-Jenkins put together the best game of
       his career, catching five passes for 110 yards and two
       touchdowns. He scored twice in all of 2014 and never had a game
       with multiple touchdown receptions. His second touchdown came on
       a 41-yard catch, the Bucs’ longest offensive play from scrimmage
       all day.
       Vincent Jackson finished with 51 receiving yards, the
       second-most of any Buccaneer.
       Doug Martin led the team in rushing, picking up 52 yards on 11
       carries, while Chris Conte, Danny Lansanah, Kwon Alexander,
       Lavonte David and D.J. Swearinger all finished tied for the
       team-lead in tackles with five. The Bucs picked up two sacks,
       one from Gerald McCoy and another from Jacquies Smith.
       The Titans got off to a hot start, putting two touchdowns on the
       board within the first five minutes of the game after scoring on
       their opening drive and returning an interception for a
       touchdown on the Bucs’ first drive. The team led, 35-7, at
       halftime.
       In his regular season debut, Jameis Winston completed 16 of 33
       passes for 210 yards, two touchdown and two interceptions. He
       was without Mike Evans, the Bucs’ leading receiver in 2014, who
       missed the game with a hamstring injury.
       The Bucs will take the field against the Saints in New Orleans
       next Sunday, September 20th, for their second game of the
       regular season.
