It was the case once more against the Giants and is the basis for a wager in this game with speedy wide receiver DeSean Jackson worth backing to score a touchdown.
The former Philadelphia and Washington burner showed his frustration on the sideline after he failed to haul in a two-point conversion while Winston on three other occasions was unable to deliver a catchable ball in his direction, one of which would have been a touchdown.
"We have to get him (Jackson) involved more as he is a dynamic playmaker," said Tampa head coach Dirk Koetter, and this could be the perfect scenario for a player signed to a US$30.5million contract over the summer to really make a statement while New England attempt to iron out some of their issues.
If you like your trends, then Brady boasts a 6-0 all-time record on Thursdays with just four days of recovery while, since 2003, the Pats are 43-6 following a loss as Belichick and company have consistently shown an ability to move on from a below-par performance.
Their current problems seem more deep-rooted and the hosts have a good opportunity to keep this one close down the stretch, but a six-point contribution from Jackson is the way to go when it comes to an investment.
