The Bucs So Far in 2018
From ESPN.com: Among all the accolades for Ryan Fitzpatrick, he is averaging 13.4 yards per attempt, which is 2.85 more than the next-highest passer (Patrick Mahomes). According to ESPN's Football Power Index, the Buccaneers had a 7 percent chance of going 2-0.
From Wikipedia: Starter Jameis Winston was handed a three-game suspension, making Fitzpatrick the Buccaneers' starting quarterback to begin the 2018 season. In Week 1 against the New Orleans Saints, Fitzpatrick completed 21 of 28 passes for 417 yards and four touchdowns, while also rushing for 36 yards and a touchdown, finishing with a 156.2 QB rating as the Buccaneers won 48–40.[106] He was named NFC Offensive Player of the Week for his performance in Week 1.[107] During Week 2 against the Philadelphia Eagles, Fitzpatrick completed 27 of 33 passes for 402 yards and four touchdowns, finishing with a 144.4 QB rating despite one interception as the Buccaneers won 27–21.
Winston is set to return next week but it is always good knowing Fitzpatrick is waiting in the wings should Winston flounder.
