Stephen White: Mike Evans was open deep all day against the Saints

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers lost to the New Orleans Saints on| Sunday, and if we can believe Stephen White, it was all their fault. His Storify analysis is below the main takeaways here.

  • Mike Evans was open deep, a lot, and the Bucs didn't target him once. Whether that's because of play design or Winston going elsewhere, it's inexcusable -- especially given the Saints' complete inability to actually cover deep routes, ever.
  • The defense was back to having just one player screwing up on every other play, especially third downs, and White pointed to safety Bradley McDougald as a major culprit.
