The JaMarcus Russell/Ryan Leaf/fill-in-the-blank quarterback-bust jokes about Jameis Winston were a little premature. Did anything surprising in Week 1 repeat itself in Week 2? One of the many things we thought we knew after one week was that Winston was overwhelmed in the NFL. Then he outplayed Drew Brees in the Superdome in Week 2 and the Buccaneers pulled off an upset that ruined a million confidence pools, beating the Saints 26-19. Yep, that happened. The No. 1 pick of the draft looked like a great pick, after a week of "Should the Buccaneers have drafted Marcus Mariota?" was part of our NFL conversation. "I would never lose confidence," Winston said after the game. "Confidence is who I am." Winston didn't throw a ton of passes but was very efficient: 14 of 21 for 207 yards, a passing touchdown and a rushing touchdown with no interceptions. For a second NFL start, at such a tough road environment, that was very impressive. Nobody expected him to play better than Brees. It sounded like Winston himself was surprised by outplaying a sure Hall of Famer. "I talked to him, I shook his hand. I was kind of shell-shocked," Winston said. "It's still Drew Brees. But shouts out to Tampa Bay, we got a win." Winston will have more days like his first start, when he looked lost as a rookie playing with a bad team. It seems like a good bet that he'll have plenty of games like Sunday, too. He made good decisions with the ball. He showed good touch on a touchdown to Vincent Jackson over the Saints' defense. He displayed a cannon arm when he rolled to his right and hit Louis Murphy on the move for a 54-yard gain. Winston isn't the quickest athlete at the position in the NFL but he had a nice move to get into the end zone on a 1-yard touchdown run. There were a lot of skills on display. Winston said this past week that he stayed up after 2 a.m. right after the Week 1 loss watching film. He said after this game that he listened to veterans who said Week 1 was only one game and he had to move on. He then talked about the team having to put the win behind it, just like it did after the loss. "I might not go to sleep; this is an exciting moment," Winston said. "But Monday the sun is going to come up again, hopefully, in Tampa." Here are the rest of the winners and losers after Week 2: The 2014 quarterback draft class: Maybe this is just a happy snapshot, and the first four quarterbacks picked in the 2014 draft won't be able to collectively replicate a day like Sunday. But it's a nice look for the future of quarterbacking in the NFL. Blake Bortles of the Jacksonville Jaguars, Johnny Manziel of the Cleveland Browns, Teddy Bridgewater of the Minnesota Vikings and Derek Carr of the Oakland Raiders all played very well and all four led their teams to big wins on Sunday. The Browns, Jaguars and Raiders are long-suffering franchises and were coming off bad Week 1 losses. The Vikings also looked awful in Week 1. It's no secret that there aren't too many can't-miss quarterbacks under the age of 30 in the NFL, at least outside of Seattle and Indianapolis. Seeing those four second-year quarterbacks play well, to go with Winston's first time as an NFL winner and what Marcus Mariota has shown so far in the pros, maybe there's a new foundation of young quarterbacks being built.
