Mike Evans just keeps on going, putting up his sixth touchdown in four weeks today on a 19-yard strike from Josh McCown. That touchdown was the first score in the game, and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers look extraordinarily comfortable in Chicago. The defense has been dominant, and the offense has been steady, though not explosive.

Of course, that touchdown was marred by a taunting penalty. Hard to fault a dominant rookie for a lapse like that, but dumb penalties have consistently hurt Tampa Bay throughout the season, and they're perfectly preventable. The ensuing drive didn't result in a score, but did get the Bucs pinned back inside their own five-yard line and a three-and-out.
Still, Mike Evans continues to dominate week-in, week-out. And that's a great thing, even with a single dumb penalty.
