The Raiders have struggled in the third quarter all year, and today’s no different.

The Buccaneers responded from a 10-7 halftime deficit by reeling off three unanswered touchdowns, and they lead 28-10.

They’re doing it with big plays, with Doug Martin running for touchdowns of 45 and 67 yards, and Mike Williams adding a short touchdown between to blow a close game open.

Martin now has 174 yards on 17 carries in his Bay Area homecoming.

The Raiders have now been outscored 88-24 in the third this season.
