Jameis an the Bucs

Feel bad for Jameis. He has the worst wide receivers n the NFL. Mike Evans sucks and what he has remaining shouldn't be in the NFL.
Both. He's been a little high on some throws and has underthrown some but even still, the receivers are dropping passes hitting them in the hands. The pick was a deflected pass that the receiver could have caught. Mike Evans dropped a big third down pass on the last drive. Ten drops for him in 3 weeks. Pathetic.
Lots of pressure, dropped passes, and receivers not getting separation. A perfect example is on thd final.play of the half. The Cowboys rushed three and dropped 8. Jameis immediately had pressure and ended up getting sacked.
I am a season ticket holder and it should be noted the Bucs and Jameis have zero receivers to throw to. Other then Mike Evans who drops way to many passes they have nothing on the outside or slot. I posted this because Jameis's numbers would off the chart if he had a good set of receivers.
He wasn't terribly sharp today. Plenty of drops, but he underthrew a couple of deep balls, and both of the picks were poor throws. And he would have been a goat had that fumble stood at the end.
But he is a competitor to end all competitors. Love watching him and he is going to be a star in the NFL barring injury.

@jaswinnie have the fans and media down there warmed up to him yet?
If I were a Bucs fan I would want every receiver on that team gone and Evans to pour a gallon of glue on hands before every game...even though he was solid today

He was 8-11 in the 4th throwing to Evans, and two rookie free agents that weren't drafted. And with ASJ out he has fat TEs that nobody has ever heard of. The fumble would've been bad but a fluke thing. It slipped out of his hands, what are you going to do. But for a rookie with a make shift line and 1 weapon with the dropsies he has done great. And he seems to be changing the culture as they are in every game.
Noles had a better wr group for Winston than the Bucs do.
He will get some help over the next year or two. Unfortunately they had the #1 pick in the draft for a reason. They need to get him some more weapons for sure.
Overall it was certainly the worst he's played in awhile & probably one of his worst games with the Bucs. He was off-target most of the day, missing high a lot & behind receivers quite a bit. The two INTs were bad throws, and he missed a couple of potential TDs early in the game.
That said, he kept plugging & made the plays needed at the end of the game to pull out a victory. He got bailed out of the lost fumble thanks to a defensive holding call, but the hold was blatant and had a very direct bearing on the play. Without the hold (there were actually two different guys who held the receiver - one grabbed him as he was making his cut, then a LB grabbed him after he fought through the first hold) the WR would've been wide open for an easy TD throw. Because of the hold, JW had no choice but to tuck it & run for the TD, fumbling right before he crossed the goal line.
