Mike Evans

The three-score effort was Mayfield's first since Week 1. He also added six carries for 42 yards, looking shockingly lively with his legs. Mayfield deserved a better fate, but the Bucs' defense fell apart late and Mayfield himself missed a few throws that could have ended the game, most notably a wide-open Mike Evans for what would have been the duo's third score. Mayfield never saw the streaking wideout. The QB still wasn't the reason the Bucs lost, looking decisive as he operated an increasingly uptempo attack. There was a scary third quarter moment where Mayfield got his leg twisted up on a red zone third down, but he was good to go after some sideline reflection. The Saints await as a Week 6 road matchup. Mayfield has bulled his way into the QB10-15 mix.

Evans' fourth and fifth scores of the season give him 100 for his career. 99 receiving and, amusingly, one on a fumble recovery. Evans, coincidentally, also recovered a Chris Godwin fumble this evening. He was schemed wide open on both his scores, a two-yarder in the first quarter and 23-yarder in the second. He got wide open for a potential third strike with the Bucs milking clock in the fourth quarter, but Baker Mayfield didn't see him. Looking as Mike Evans-y as ever, he gets arch-nemesis Marshon Lattimore's Saints in Week 6.

How consistent has Godwin's start been? This evening's five receptions were actually his fewest of the season. He still reached 60 yards for the fourth time in five games, with the exception being 53 yards in Week 3. Godwin did lose a fumble, but Mike Evans recovered. Baker Mayfield's overall efficiency is leading to some low attempts totals, but Godwin and Evans dominate target share to the degree that they remain safe WR2s. That includes for next Sunday's grudge match in New Orleans. With Evans likely to battle nemesis Marshon Lattimore, expect plenty of Godwin looks.

Evans secured five of seven targets for 62 yards and two touchdowns and recovered a fumble in the Buccaneers' 36-30 overtime loss to the Falcons on Thursday night.
