Ryan Fitzpatrick and the Buccaneers win games

Best game by a Buccaneers quarterback ever?

The Saints have Tampa’s number in the regular season. There is no way around that fact. The Bucs look like a different team when playing against their division rivals, and even Tom Brady isn’t enough to flip the script in these games.

Brady is 0-4 in his games against New Orleans as a Buccaneer in the regular season, and the past few years haven’t been much better.

The last regular season win came with none other than Ryan Fitzpatrick at the helm. The 48-40 barn-burner in Tampa’s favor came on the back of a 417-yard, five-touchdown performance from Fitzpatrick.

That game will go down in history as one of the best-ever by a Buccaneers quarterback.

Fitzpatrick keeps the magic alive against the Eagles

One game can be a mirage. Lots of guys go out there and look great for a week, but Fitzpatrick coming out the next week and doing the same thing against the Eagles to give the Bucs their second-straight win to start the year continued to build the hype.

Another four-passing touchdown, 400-yard performance by Fitzpatrick put himself and the Bucs as a main discussion on the lips of everyone talking about the best players and teams in the NFL.

Fitzpatrick and the Bucs were on top of the world for another week.
