TAMPA, Fla. -- After two losses, first-year Tampa Bay Buccaneers coach Dirk Koetter wants to change the culture of a team that hasnt won a playoff game in 13 years. Hell have a good model of what hes seeking on the other sideline when the defending Super Bowl champions come to Raymond James Stadium.When Im talking about the culture ... Im talking about the 53 players, the 10 practice-squad guys and however many coaches we have, Koetter said. The best teams that Ive been on beat with one heart, and they count on the guy next to them to do their job every time, and they win and lose together.The Buccaneers (1-2) have dropped two straight games, a lopsided 40-7 loss at Arizona and a 37-32 setback on Sunday against the Los Angeles Rams that included a 70-minute lightning delay with two minutes left in the game. Tampa Bay moved into scoring position at the Rams 15-yard line and had five shots at a game-winning touchdown in the final minute but came up short.Denver is off to a 3-0 start despite starting an unknown commodity in second-year pro Trevor Siemian at quarterback. The former Northwestern player had a coming-out party in Sundays win over the Cincinnati Bengals with four touchdown passes.Hes obviously very young, and this will be his fourth time as a pro, Broncos coach Gary Kubiak said Wednesday. Hes handled himself really well. ... I think the good thing is he knows hes on a good football team and tries to stay within himself and do his job. Weve got a long way to go, but he continues to work at his trade each and every day.In throwing four touchdown passes Sunday, Siemien was just the ninth player in the last 40 years to do so in one of his first five NFL games. The last one? Tennessees Marcus Mariota against the Buccaneers in last years season opener.The Buccaneers brought in defensive coordinator Mike Smith, but the results have actually gotten worse. Tampa Bay is giving up 33.7 points per game, the most in the NFL and the most ever for a Buccaneers team after three games in the 41-year history of the franchise.You have to realize that of whatever the number is, 101 points or whatever it is, our offense has contributed way, way too much for that, Koetter said. We moved up one spot in turnover margin, from 32nd to 31st.Buccaneers quarterback Jameis Winston typifies the highs and lows of a young Tampa Bay team -- he leads the NFL with eight touchdown passes but is also one interception off the league high as well with six, to go with two costly fumbles he has lost as well.In Sundays loss to the Rams, Winston reset his career high with 405 passing yards but saw a fumble returned 77 yards for a touchdown and his only interception of the game set up another Los Angeles touchdown. There is small progress -- the Tampa Bay defense, held without a takeaway in the first two games, came up with two Sunday, including Kwon Alexanders interception return for a touchdown.The Bucs have a daunting two weeks ahead, facing both teams from last years Super Bowl, first the Broncos and then a Monday night game at Carolina, which has owned them in recent years. Tampa Bay will need a major upset to avoid going into its Week 6 bye with a disappointing 1-4 record.The Broncos are in a very different place from the Buccaneers, trying to sustain a high level of success despite a lack of proven experience at quarterback. There are higher expectations when a franchise has won multiple Super Bowls, and Kubiak understands the challenge of repeating a teams success over time.This is a tough league, he said. Youve got 32 organization. Everybody puts in the work and grinds at this thing. Its a very, very difficult league. I think what youre always looking for is consistency -- consistency in your preparation, consistency in your approach from the top down. I think thats what youre looking for as an organization.

Pert has formerly spent time as an assistant coach with Cardiff City, Coventry City, and Bahrain mens national team. "Martyn is a highly-respected coach with experience at the top levels in England," said Whitecaps FC head coach Carl Robinson.MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. -- After a parade of tiebreaking penalty kicks, Inter Milan goalkeeper Juan Pablo Carrizo had enough. Carrizo stopped a penalty shot to give his team the upper hand, and then blasted one of his own past Juventus goalie Marco Storari as Inter Milan prevailed in the seventh-place game of the Guinness International Champions Cup on Tuesday night. Inter Milan won the tiebreaker, 9-8 on penalty kicks. "I like how the team responded," Carrizo said. "It was an important response. ... Facing an important rival like Juventus, the best in Italy, we had to play at our maximum, if not better." The Serie A teams finished 90 minutes of play tied at 1, with the goals coming in the first half. Ricky Alvarez struck first for Inter Milan, and Arturo Vidal scored on a penalty kick for Juventus just before intermission. And it stayed that way until the end on a sultry night in South Florida, the championship-round site for the inaugural event that brought eight club teams -- seven international ones going through their preseason training, and the Los Angeles Galaxy of Major League Soccer -- together for a series of exhibitions that culminates Wednesday night. Carrizo and Storari each saved the first shot they saw in the tiebreaker. From there, the goals kept coming, players on both sides at times laughing at the game that wouldnt end. That is, until Carrizo made not one, but two plays. He punched away Mauricio Islas try to open the door in the 10th round of PKs, and then scored to finish the match. It was the second time Juventus lost in penalty kicks during the tournament, which it officially finished with a loss and two draws. Intter Milan had been shut out in its first two games, losing to Chelsea and Valencia.dddddddddddd "After the two losses, obviously, we didnt have good performances, our team played well," Inter Milan coach Walter Mazzarri said. "Our forwards had plenty of scoring opportunities. Im glad our team is following the way I see the game." With about 15 minutes left in the match, Carrizo had been fooled on a direct kick by Juventus Andrea Pirlo that nearly put his team up 2-1. Pirlos shot from about 25 yards out curled left and froze Carrizo, who replaced starter Samir Handanovic. Carrizo remained still and just watched the flight of Pirlos shot, which hit the inside of the left goalpost and bounced back into play. Inter Milan opened the scoring in the 29th minute, after Juventus defenders seemed to just give up on a play. Fredy Guarin fired a low shot from about 30 yards out that was blocked by Juventus goaltender Gianluigi Buffon. The rebound skipped to Alvarez, who tapped it home. Alvarez nearly added another in the 41st minute, a stepover feint along the right side of the box shaking him clear of Juventus Leonardo Bonucci. He tried a left-footed shot toward the near post, pushing it just wide and into the outside of the net. And less than four minutes later, Juventus had its equalizer. Whether it was deserved or not was the subject of more than a little on-field discussion. Mirko Vucinic backed into the box against Inter Milans Juan Jesus, then tumbled to the grass. Replays showed there wasnt much in the way of contact, but Jesus received a yellow card and Vidals resulting penalty kick sailed into the right side of the net. ' ' '
