They limited negative yardage snaps (four in 74 plays, not including a knee-down to end the game), committed only two penalties on offense and did not turn the ball over.

Jalen Hurts will be hit 44 times in the first three games. Will this continue? The Bucs certainly had more pressure up the middle with the defensive tackle returning Vita Vea, who was out for one game with an MCL injury, but they are still without a 2023 first-round pick Calijah Kancey (calf).”
