Tampa Bay capitalized by going the other way for a touchdown that proved crucial in the Buccaneers 19-17 victory.Im going to take responsibility for it. Were not getting into the end zone for touchdowns when we need to, said Chiefs coach Andy Reid, who this week said scoring touchdowns rather than field goals was a priority. When youre given an opportunity, youve got to make plays.The Buccaneers (5-5) certainly did, going 11 of 16 on third down. That included a conversion with just over two minutes remaining that allowed them to nearly finish off the game.By the time Kansas City finally forced a punt, there was 8 seconds to go.I dont think theres one thing you can point to. I dont think theres one thing that can do it, Smith said of the red-zone trouble. You got to come away with points.

You could just see the faces, everyone was being anxious. I stepped in the huddle and said, `Guys, just calm down. Lets finish. Lets finish. We got this. And we did.As the Buccaneers celebrate their fifth straight win over the Chiefs (7-3), here are some of the story lines that came to dominate the afternoon:GET ONE, LOSE ONE: The Chiefs pass rush got four-time Pro Bowl linebacker Justin Houston back for the first time this season, but it also lost Dee Ford to a hamstring injury before halftime.Ford entered the game tops in the NFL with 10 sacks. And while Houston wound playing more snaps than Reid would have liked, he was unable to generate much pressure oon the quarterback.dddddddddddd The only sack Kansas City got was granted to the team on Winstons fumble.He got a lot of snaps, Reid said of Houston, who had not played in a game since having surgery to his left ACL in February. Hes going to be sore tomorrow.WINNING FOR MONK: Winston dedicated the win to former Florida State star and longtime administrator Monk Bonasorte, who died Saturday night after a battle with brain cancer. He was 59.He really meant a lot to me, said Winston, who starred for the Seminoles before becoming the No. 1 overall draft pick. If the Bonasorte family is listening, thank you. I love you.MORE HEAVY HEARTS: Chiefs long snapper James Winchester played one day after the funeral for his father, Michael, who was shot to death at an Oklahoma City airport on Tuesday.Police believe the elder Winchester, an employee for Southwest Airlines, was gunned down near an airport parking ramp in retaliation for the assailant losing his own airline job.I cant commend that guy enough, Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce said. The stuff that hes been dealt this week is, man, its hard. It makes football seem pointless. Its life and when you lose someone special like that, for him to be out here to be a part of this team, it just shows you the type of brotherhood that we have here.LETS GO STREAKING: The Chiefs not only had their five-game winning streak snapped, they lost inside the raucous environs of Arrowhead Stadium for the first time since Oct. 11, 2015.Man, the crowd noise was amazing, Winston said. I love to play here.TOUGH SLEDDING: Buccaneers running back Doug Martin carried 24 times for 63 yards, while Chiefs running back Spencer Ware was held to 69 yards on 17 carries.
