They began play with a somewhat-improved lineup that included a running back (Anthony Davis) playing as a rookie for the third time, in his third different league, and a free-agent linebacker from Miami (Cecil Johnson) who chose the Buccaneers over three other teams so that he \"wouldn't have a long, sad ride home\" if he didn't make the squad. Their first victory as a franchise came in week 13, 33\u201314 over the New Orleans Saints. A crowd of 8,000 celebrating fans surrounded team headquarters to greet them on their return from New Orleans. The win ended a 26 game losing streak which, as of 2011, remains a record in the modern NFL. They scored only six touchdowns and were shut out six times during the season, which also remains an NFL record. The year opened with shouts of \"Why not Minot?\" and sales of \"RH Positive\" t-shirts, as preseason injuries to both candidates for the starting quarterback job left rookie Randy Hedberg of Minot State as the surprise starter. The move resulted in the team adding a radio affiliate in faraway North Dakota. Coach John McKay declared the team to be \"stronger at every position, with the exception of the quarterback position\" than the 1976 team. Unfortunately, injuries, especially at quarterback and offensive line, prevented the offense from gaining any consistency; while the inexperienced line was able to provide neither adequate pass protection nor lanes for the running backs. Opposing players praised the performance of the Tampa Bay defense, even while posting record numbers of sacks against the Tampa Bay offense. Opposing teams played in fear of being the first to lose to the Buccaneers."@en . . . . . . "did not qualify"@en .
