Tricky kick return helps Titans win ugly against Tampa Bay

There were way more ugly plays than pretty plays in Sunday's Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs. Tennessee Titans game. Because we're nice people, here's one of the pretty ones.

The set-up and handoff are by Marc Mariani, a second-round receiver out of Montana. The touchdown and the ridiculous speed are by Tommie Campbell, a rookie defensive back and former California University of Pennsylvania Vulcan.

Outside of that, the game was largely a mess. The Titans made some clutch plays down the stretch to get the win, but also turned the ball over four times -- two interceptions and two fumbles. The good news was that the Bucs turned it over five times. One interception by Josh Freeman, and four lost fumbles.

The win keeps the Titans two games back of the Houston Texans in the AFC South, which is significant, because it looks like the Texans will be playing the rest of the season with T.J. Yates as their quarterback. The AFC South has still not been won.
