Josh McCown Throws TD Pass To Mike Evans, Ties Game 10-10 (Video)
By Josh Hill
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers changed up their look at quarterback, giving the job back to Josh McCown who is having a reverse performance than what he had in Atlanta earlier this year.
When the Tampa Bay Buccaneers went to Atlanta for Thursday Night Football earlier this season, Josh McCown was taken out of the game and the defense allowed 56 points.

That hasn’t been the case so far this Sunday though, as McCown isn’t having a lights out game but he’s keeping the game close. After the Falcons took a 10-3 lead on the Bucs, McCown threw his most perfect pass of the season to rookie wide receiver Mike Evans to tie the game up at 10-10 before halftime.
Check out the splendid play below:
Evans is starting to turn it on in the second half of the season, which is great for the Buccaneers. They spent a high draft pic on him this past spring and he’s finally starting to look the part of a top 10 draft pick.
With Vincent Jackson struggling this season, the Buccaneers are getting a nice boost out of Evans, who is someone they want to pair on the deep ball game with Jackson. The Buccaneers are not winning anything this season, but flashes like this from Evans helps give fans hope for the future.
