ATLANTA -- The jump shot to Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver DeSean Jackson from teammate Mike Evans slipped right through Jackson's hands and out of bounds. Had he caught it at the 6-yard line, he might have faced only one defender -- Damontae Kazee -- before reaching the end zone in the fourth quarter.
It was that kind of day for the Bucs' deep threat. And can you blame Jackson for ripping off his helmet in disgust, kicking his foot into the pylon and shouting when that desperation play came up short?
