The Tampa Bay Buccaneers prevailed 30-28 over the New England Patriots in their third preseason game, and final game at Raymond James Stadium before the regular season starts.

The Bucs (2-1) still need to fine tune their offense, but quarterback Josh Freeman used his two new additions brilliantly.

First round draft pick, running back Doug Martin, has made it more difficult for LeGarrett Blount to regain his starting position. Martin scored a touchdown and rushed for 53 yards, while newly acquired wide receiver, Vincent Jackson, caught three passes for 49 yards.

The Buc defense looked primed and ready, sacking Tom Brady twice, and rushing his throws on other downs. First round draft pick Mark Barron (defensive back) grabbed an interception from a tipped ball by Ronde Barber, and returned it 22 yards for a score.

The Bucs will enter their final preseason game against Robert Griffin, III and the Washington Redskins without the services of two-time pro guard, Davin Joseph.

Joseph is lost for the season with torn patellar tendon in his right knee. He is expected to have surgery Monday.

Joseph’s injury occurred when his teammate, Donald Penn, rolled up the back of his leg.

Ted Larson, who started 14 games for the Bucs last season, will be filling in for Joseph, although third-year pro, Derek Hardman, is listed as Joseph’s backup on the depth chart.
