<![CDATA[Josh Freeman leads Bucs to first win, 38-28 over GB]]>TAMPA, Fla. (AP)—Wearing one of those ghastly creamsicle jerseys that are an ugly reminder of Tampa Bay’s past, rookie Josh Freeman(notes) gave the struggling Buccaneers plenty of reasons to be optimistic about the future.

The third quarterback selected in this year’s NFL draft led the previously winless Bucs to a 38-28 victory over the Green Bay Packers in his first start Sunday, ending the league’s longest losing streak at 11 games.

Playing with poise that belied his inexperience, Freeman passed for 205 yards and three touchdowns, including a 7-yard throw to Sammie Stroughter(notes) on fourth-and-4 for the go-ahead TD with under 5 minutes to play.

“I felt really relaxed,” said Freeman, the 17th pick in the draft and the third quarterback taken behind Matthew Stafford(notes) and Mark Sanchez(notes).

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Josh Freeman(notes) (5) celebrates with fans after a 38-28 win over the Green Bay Packers during their NFL football game Sunday,

“I didn’t get too high or two low,” the 21-year-old said. “I can’t say I did anything spectacular. I just played within myself, and when we had opportunities I took them.”

BQ...this is what is expected of you..........long long way from that son.

He has a 1-5 record with a 50% rating. He's played in 6 games, compared to Quinn's 2 1/2. I'm not seeing any reason why Quinn's name got brought up

actually you are talking about Josh Johnson..Out of San Diego that took over for Leftwhich..
