No. 2- Jameis Winston scrambles for 45 minutes, finds Mike Evans downfield vs. Chicago

Okay, maybe that’s an exaggeration. But oh man, this was crazy. This play was a roller coaster of emotions. Perhaps that’s why it was so much fun to watch. It represented what it’s sometimes like to watch Jameis Winston. Every fan probably felt the range from “what is he doing?” to “THAT WAS THE GREATEST THING TO EVER HAPPEN” with about 37 other emotions mixed in between.

All exaggerations aside, this was unbelievable:

I could watch that on a loop forever. Winston had his share of issues and inconsistencies this year. Despite all of that, he still had himself a nice year. He’s still the future of the franchise. There’s no denying it anymore. Once the front office builds more around no. 3, things will be even more exciting.

For now, though, we can settle for watching this play again and again. It’s still unreal to me that this actually happened. Winston is a winner, a leader and a difference-maker. Plays like these can be frustrating when they don’t work out. However, this one worked out. So let’s all enjoy it until the end of time.
