MINNEAPOLIS – Rookie Doug Martin racked up 214 total yards and two touchdowns, and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers blew out Minnesota 36-17 on Thursday night to hand the Vikings their first home loss this season.

Martin took a screen pass 64 yards for a score, one of three Josh Freeman touchdown passes, to give Tampa Bay a 27-10 lead 1:21 into the second half.

Then Martin, the first-round draft pick from Boise State, capped a drive of more than 9 minutes with a 1-yard rumble into the end zone midway through the fourth quarter to crush the comeback opportunity for Minnesota (5-3).
