Tampa Bay has some decisions to make this offseason

that will dictate the future of the franchise. One of the major headscratchers is what to do with veteran receiver DeSean Jackson. Jackson signed with the Buccaneers in 2017 and many people thought it’d help Jameis Winston take another step forward in his development. Instead Jameis Winston Jersey , neither player prospered. The former Philadephia Eagle and Washington Redskin has caught just a total of 91 passes for 1,442 yards and seven touchdowns during his two seasons in Tampa. To put that in perspective, Mike Evans caught 86 passes for 1,524 yards and eight touchdowns in 2018 alone.It’s clear that Winston and Jackson haven’t been able to develop much chemistry. Winston acknowledged it was something he and the veteran receiver needed to work on. But with Jackson’s comments on practice earlier this week, I’m just not sure if this relationship is fixable.In an interview on “Schein on Sports” on Friday, Winston was asked if he was concerned that Jackson might potentially not be on the roster next season. His answer basically said it all. “No, I’m not concerned about DJax not being there,” Winston said. “We know he is a tremendous talent. I want to go out there with DeSean Jackson but at the end of the day, this is a business and DeSean is a superstar. And wherever the superstar wants to be, that’s where the superstar is going to go.”Jackson has already mentioned an affinity to head west to play for the Los Angeles Rams. Tampa Bay could grant him that wish with a potential trade or by releasing him later this offseason. The move would save the Bucs $10 million to invest elsewhere.Or they could try to mend the relationship between their star quarterback and Jackson. New head coach Bruce Arians wants to keep the receiver in Tampa Bay and says he has a meeting scheduled with Jackson next week. Arians could be the party that mends the dysfunction between Winston and Jackson. Regardless, it’s clear that Tampa Bay has a choice to make, one way or the other. Is this relationship worth fixing? Or should the Bucs try to trade Jackson for whatever they can and at a last resort cut him? Only time will tell how this situation shakes out. TAMPA, Fla. (AP) — Once again Carlton Davis Jersey , close wasn’t good enough for the Cleveland Browns, who keep finding ways to lose.Chandler Catanzaro’s 59-yard field goal in overtime officially took them down in Sunday’s 26-23 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. However, the Browns themselves also had a lot to do with the result.In addition to failing to score on two possessions deep in Buccaneers territory, Cleveland was penalized 14 times for 114 yards, lost a fumble near midfield in overtime and managed to turn four Tampa Bay turnovers into only seven points.“It’s very frustrating any time you lose, especially because you could have done a lot of things better,” rookie quarterback Baker Mayfield said. “That seems to be the moral of the season.”The Browns (2-4-1) fell to 1-2-1 in overtime games this season and lost their 24th consecutive road loss dating to October 2015. That’s two shy of the NFL record set by the Detroit Lions from 2007-10.Six of their seven games have been decided by four or fewer points. Their four OT games are the most any team has played since 2011, when Arizona won all four it played. The league record is five by the Green Bay Packers in 1983.“We’ve got to capitalize on defensive turnovers,” Mayfield said. “The defense is playing great. … If we take those points when we can, I don’t think some of these games would be close.”A sputtering offense has been part of the problem. The Browns had 126 yards through three quarters and finished with 305.Coach Hue Jackson said that has to change, even if he has to get more involved.“I totally have to figure that out, and jump in head-first, all hands Jordan Whitehead Jersey , feet, everything. It’s just that simple,” Jackson said, adding that he’s not concerned that interjecting himself might be perceived as interfering with offensive coordinator Todd Haley.“I feel I have to, and I want to. That’s nothing against anybody on our building. … If the offense isn’t playing well, and we haven’t over a period of time, I think I have every right as a head coach to jump in and see if I can help and assist, and get this thing to where it needs to be,” Jackson said. “If that’s my specialty, then I need to be involved more, and I will be.”In addition to being stopped on downs at the Tampa Bay 1 when they were trailing 23-16 in the fourth quarter, the Browns also came away without points in the closing seconds of the first half when Mayfield — scrambling on fourth-and-2 from the Bucs‘ 11 — fumbled backward out of bounds as he appeared to be closing in on a first down.Jackson said he gambled on fourth down because he felt the team, trailing 16-2 at the time Anthony Nelson Jersey , needed a spark.“Baker was running for it, and the guy stripped the ball out and the ball goes backwards. That normally doesn’t happen,” Jackson said. “We could have kicked the field goal, no question, but I thought our offense needed something to feel good about in the first half.”For his part, Mayfield — 23 of 34 passing for 215 yards, two touchdowns and zero interceptions — said he should have done a better job of protecting the football.“I wish I would have switched hands, that’s the main thing,” the No. 1 overall draft pick said.“Either kicking the field goal or me switching the ball to the other hand, those points matter down there,” Mayfield added. “Any points are good points at that point of the game. You’ve got to take care of the ball.”
