Fitzpatrick sets an NFL record in 30-27 loss to the Steelers

Monday night brought many challenges for the Buccaneers. Veteran quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick faced many of them.

Despite not having his best game of 2018, Fitzpatrick still managed to throw for over 400 yards against the Pittsburgh Steelers in a losing effort. That stat makes him the first makes him the first quarterback in NFL history to throw for 400-plus yards in three consecutive games.

Fitzpatrick and the Bucs found themselves down early on in the matchup. Desptie trailing 30-10 at halftime, Tampa Bay came close to coming back from behind in the second half and pull off the victory but fell 30-27.
