The top quotes from Buccaneers this week.
!["[Charles Sims] is maybe a little bit more elusive on the outside, a little bit better in the screen game. Really the guy that resembles Doug's style is probably Jacquizz [Rodgers]. So if Doug's out, we still have two good guys there behind him, we'll be fine."- Head Coach Dirk Koetter on a RB Doug Martin potentially missing time](https://static.clubs.nfl.com/image/private/t_new_photo_album_2x/f_auto/buccaneers/wwe8j4g4klur2sairxmb.jpg)

"Bottom line is we split, starting on the road. That's not too bad. We can't let one loss and the way we played lead to another loss and another loss. We're not changing what we do. We are who we are. We believe in what we do. We've just got to do it better."- Offensive Todd Monken on offensive struggles in Week Two in Arizona
"Everything right now is not where it needs to be, not just me and Vincent. We're going to get better, that's the thing, you get better every single week. I put most of that on me. I have to be playing with better rhythm and better accuracy to help our team out."- QB Jameis Winston on if he's having trouble connecting with WR Vincent Jackson

!["DaVonte Lambert did great for us last week. I don't think [anybody] assumed he was going to be here. But he is and he played a lot and this week he's going to play even more.

!["Don't be fooled by what you've seen in the first two weeks - this is a week-to-week league, anything can happen. We can't be going to the game [saying], 'Oh, well they haven't scored touchdowns.'
