Missed opportunities cost Buccaneers in loss to Redskins

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers offense couldn’t capitalize on a single opportunity against the Washington Redskins, and it would cost them.

Despite gaining 480 yards of total offense, the Redskins defense would keep the Bucs at bay in the red zone, and Washington walked away with a 16-3 victory.

With a chance to make it a one-score game, Ryan Fitzpatrick fumbled the ball at the two-yard line, and the Redskins would take over to seal the ball game. On the previous play, star receiver Mike Evans couldn’t come down with a catch in the end zone.
