Evans caught four passes for 63 yards and a touchdown, Tampa Bay’s first of the game. During the game, quarterback Sam Bradford went down with a shoulder injury and it was later announced he also suffered a scary concussion that left him with little recollection of the first half of the game.

The Eagles offense averaged 2.9 points per drive last season with Sanchez, and the backup seemed to move the ball effectively last week in limited playing time against the Dolphins. The rookie is starting to mature and get accustomed to the National Football League, cutting down on turnovers and improving his all-around game.
That opener about consecutive wins should cover consistency on the Tampa end, but it’s clear that looking backward with this team isn’t particularly useful because Winston has clearly changed the formula for the Buccaneers. 500 if they can defeat a banged up Eagles squad on the road.
Philadelphia Eagles’ Zach Ertz (86) leaps to avoid Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ Lavonte David (54) during the first half of an NFL football game, Sunday, November 22, 2015, in Philadelphia. He finished 19-for-29 for 246 yards with the five touchdowns and no interceptions.
Winston schooled the Eagles defense and coordinator Billy Davis. I’ve been harping about this all year, but until the Eagles draft a quarterback they believe can be a franchise guy, they’re just not going to win a thing.
Additionally, the team’s secondary will also look to get back to its penchant for takeaways after a down game verse Miami. See, Tampa has been pretty good at defending the run and the deep pass, only allowing a handful of 20-plus-yard completions. At that point, the Eagles were still down by 14 and would have gotten the ball back with a stop.
Winston, on the march leading to his fifth TD pass and a 35-14 lead, was in the grasp of Cox when he performed the switcheroo. “It looks bad on the coaching staff and it looks bad on the players as individuals, especially at that time, because you’re holding onto every ounce of enthusiasm and momentum that you have, and you just give it back by having a really elementary brain (cramp)”.
Although he’s been criticized for his play throughout the year, Maxwell has been productive with six passes defensed, a forced fumble, a fumble recovery and an interception. The defense is led by Brandon Graham, who has 33 tackles with 4.5 sacks.
The Eagles haven’t lost two games in a row since the first two weeks of the season, when they fell to Atlanta and Dallas in back-to-back weeks.
