TAMPA, Fla. -- Russell Wilson huddled in the locker room with two of his receivers, discussing where the Seattle Seahawks go from here.A 14-5 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers stopped a three-game winning streak that had Wilson and Co. feeling pretty good about the direction of the first-place team.Losing to the Bucs hasnt changed anything, the quarterback said Sunday after being sacked six times and limited to a season-low 151 yards passing and two interceptions.Sometimes you have to have a little struggle to overcome, Wilson said. Were really positive about what we can do. Weve obviously shown it. Weve battled, weve battled and weve battled. They played a little bit better than us. Hopefully next week we can do a better job across the board.Jameis Winston threw touchdown passes to Mike Evans on Tampa Bays first two possessions , before an injury-depleted Seahawks defense minimized the damage the rest of the way.The offense never really got on track, held to 1-yard net passing in the opening half, when Wilson was sacked four times for 19 yards in losses. When it appeared the quarterback might have a chance to rally his team, Jimmy Graham lost a fourth-quarter fumble and the Bucs sealed the victory with their second interception of the day.Its a complete team effort. I thought our defensive continued to fight, even though we were down early, Wilson said. We continued to fight on offense, we continued to fight at the end of the game. Thats the character of men that we have. Theres nobody thats down at all. Were looking forward to the challenge of getting back next week.The Seahawks (7-3-1) were limited to Steven Hauschkas 43-yard field goal and a safety, awarded when Tampa Bay was penalized for holding while blocking for Winston in his end zone.They made their plays and we didnt, said Wilson, who threw for 902 yards, six TDs and zero interceptions during Seattles three-game winning streak.Its pretty simple. Sometimes you make your jump shots, and some days you dont, the quarterback added. Unfortunately today, we didnt hit ours. But we will next time.The Bucs (6-5) have won three straight to climb back into contention for a playoff berth . Besides stopping Seattles winning streak, they remained one game behind first-place Atlanta in the NFC South.IN REMEMBRANCEPlaying just two days after the death of his father, Tampa Bays Alterraun Verner had one of two interceptions off Wilson. The cornerbacks first pick of the season stopped the Seahawks after Wilson drove his team into field-goal range in the final minute of the opening half. The seventh-year pro sobbed on the sideline, where he was embraced by teammates, whove rallied around him.I just knew what his response would have been. He would have been smiling and would have been very, very proud, Verner said. I was definitely thinking about him, and how he would have been reacting.SELECT COMPANYEvans scored on receptions of 3 and 23 yards in the opening quarter and finished with eight catches for 104 yards. The seventh overall pick from the 2014 draft joined Joey Galloway and Vincent Jackson as the only receivers in Bucs history with three consecutive 1,000-yard seasons. He has 73 receptions for 1,020 yards and 10 TDs through 11 games.Mike Evans is elite, Winston said. Hes a superstar.SHERMAN VS. EVANSOne of the most anticipated individual matchups featured Evans against Seahawks CB Richard Sherman, who felt offensive pass interference should have been called on the receivers second TD catch. Sherman complained to an official that Evans grabbed his jersey and then pushed off to gain an advantage.We have a ton of respect (for Sherman). We tried to do some things to get Mike on the other side, with motion and whatnot, Bucs coach Dirk Koetter said. Mike came up big. The only disappointment is we just didnt stay with it good enough in the second half.WINSTON SPARKLESA week after leading the Bucs to a road win over Kansas City, Winston delivered another stellar performance. He was 21 of 28 for 220 yards, two TDs and one interception. His TD passes to Evans finished drives of 78 and 62 yards on Tampa Bays first two possessions of the game. Hes on a nice little roll, Koetter said. The first couple drives, you couldnt have scripted it any better.---For more NFL coverage: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFL .

It still felt awfully good, nonetheless.I wish it would happen a lot more often. These are weekends you dont forget, Dixon said after his 40th victory overall moved him alone into fourth place on the career list. You just think of problems or strategy not going your way.

Trying to dive to the inside of Kimball coming out of the first turn on Lap 20, his No. 15 Honda was running eighth when it clipped the rear of Kimballs No. 83 Chevy.I went down on the inside. He decided not to give me any room, Rahal said. Its just a shame. We were looking really, really good. We were able to move up. We saved a lot of overtakes; our tires were better than everybody. Ive got to take the blame, too. I should know better.Rahal, who started 20th after being penalized in qualifying on Saturday, finished 21st.ROOKIE RUSH: Rookies Conor Daly and RC Enerson gave Dale Coyne Racing its best team finish of the season, placing fourth and ninth, respectively. Both took advantage of a full-course caution to make their final pit stop with 19 laps left in the race, four laps beyond the normal fuel window. Both succeeded and moved up as drivers ahead of them were forced to pit.We were just trying to hit the fuel number to make it to the end, the 19-year-old Enerson said after just his second IndyCar race. I think saving fuel is more of a mental thing. You have to keep reminding yourself to lift. It was tough, but we were able to fly up the field there at the end.WHOS HOT: Newgarden has four top-four finishes in the last eight races.WHOS NOT: Ryan Hunter-Reay finished 14th for Andretti Autosport as his late-season slump continued.
