Bucs have Jameis Winston; Redskins not sure what they have at QB
The Buccaneers are 5-13 ATS in their last 18 versus NFC foes and the Redskins are 5-26 ATS in their last 31 home tests against teams with a losing road record.
Where to start with this so-called “defense”. “Like I said, just the repetition, getting the reps, getting used to it, watching film, seeing how other teams are going to play the outside zone”. However, Murphy came down with a knee injury during the play and would not return. “I don’t even know what to say, honestly”.
The Washington Redskins square off against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday, and if the team is to leave the contest victorious, quarterback Kirk Cousins will have to be the player the team relies on throughout the contest.
Yet another three and out for the Redskins offense as they can only manage four yards on this drive.
So, Lovie, a word of advice: the next time your team leads 24-7 at halftime, don’t tell your defense to become as soft as a freshly baked chocolate chip cookie that has just come out of my grandma’s oven. Well the number listed above is beyond comprehension. “Basketball, one person can probably take over the game”. The injury left the Bucs with three active receivers.
Cousins finished 33 for 40 for 317 yards, the trio of scores and zero interceptions. “And starting the third quarter, if we scored, that’s when we were going to do it, and it worked out perfectly”.
The Bucs had stormed out to a 24-0 lead, punctuated by a 43-yard defensive touchdown on a fumble recovery by first-year defensive end Howard Jones. The Bucs were called for 16 penalties for 142 yards.
The Bucs didn’t stop dominating when they got to the second quarter.
If there is a silver lining, it’s that the Bucs have a chance to go 3-3 with a win at Washington and Evans hasn’t begun to really play his normal brand of football. He also ran for an 8-yard touchdown in the second quarter for the first points for the Redskins (3-4), making it 24-7 after two quarters.
Now for the high points of the afternoon. The two teams have also met twice in the postseason, both times in Tampa Bay. The team was held to season lows in rushing yards and points in a loss to the Vikings last week.
21 of 29 for 297 yards and two touchdowns.
Jameis Winston has certainly gone through his share of ups and downs in terms of rookie struggles.

Now, Evans and the Buccaneers are hoping a return visit to Washington today will rekindle the explosiveness and big plays the second-year receiver has shown. He made strong, sound decisions all day long. Confident under pressure and passing the ball accurately but most importantly, not throwing interceptions.
In 2014, the Bucs drafted Evans seventh overall after watching him catch 151 passes for 2,499 yards and 17 touchdowns – majority from Manziel, who went 22nd to the Browns. But if Gruden takes out the younger faster, better Breeland, and puts in Hall, it could spell disaster for the Redskins.
