He's completed 157 of 232 passes for 1,941 yards and his 67.7 completion percentage is the best of his career. ... The Bucs have the league's top offense in yards per game (442.7) and the top passing offense (344.5 yards per game)... Mike Evans, who has a team-best 1,121 yards this season, caught seven passes for 147 yards in Week 1.
