The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are leading the Seattle Seahawks 21-7 at the break in their NFL encounter.

The crowd had to wait until the second quarter of the game for any point-scoring action, but they were given it when Tampa's Tim Wright collected Mike Glennon's 12-yard pass for the touchdown, before Rod Lindell kicked to put the Buccaneers 7-0 ahead.

Glennon was the provider again later in the quarter as he produced a 20-yard pass to Tiquan Underwood, who collected the ball for the touchdown, while Lindell kicked good again.

Tampa added their third touchdown of the evening when Tom Crabtree picked up a two-yard pass from Mike James.

Jermaine Kearse hit back for the Hawks with a touchdown right at the end of the second quarter to leave the scores at 21-7 going into half time.
