Buccaneers ............ 15 Jets ............................ 10
For Ryan Fitzpatrick, beating New York was not as much about getting the best of his old team as it was helping Tampa Bay snap a five-game skid.
Filling in for the injured Jameis Winston, the 34-year-old completed 17 of 34 passes with a touchdown and an interception.
“I didn’t play great by any stretch of the imagination. But we won the game, and I’m getting too old now to worry about that other stuff,” Fitzpatrick said.
Tampa Bay sacked Josh McCown six times, nearly doubling its total for the entire season. The Jets were held to fewer than 200 yards until late in the fourth quarter.
