Do you believe in “Fitzmagic”?
Behind the arm of Ryan Fitzpatrick, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers routed the New Orleans Saints, 48-40 to open the 2018 campaign.
Fitzpatrick threw for a career high in yardage (417) and added four touchdowns. He completed 75 percent of his passes and added a rushing touchdown in a career performance.
As the defense allowed Drew Brees to put together an impressive comeback effort, Fitzpatrick shut the door with a clutch scramble on a 3rd-and-11 with just over two minutes to play.
The rush ended any hopes for New Orleans and was the cherry on top of Fitzpatrick’s best game in his long career.
