14. Winston tosses five interceptions

After a suffering a fourth loss in five games, Jameis Winston may only receive a few more chances to prove himself worthy of the starting job before the Tampa Bay Buccaneers decide to send the former No. 1 pick to the bench.

Back in September, Winston and the Buccaneers appeared to be on the right track of turning things around in the NFC following an impressive win on the road over the Los Angeles Rams.

But since that Week 4 contest, Tampa Bay has lost three in a row, and could see that streak increase to four with a tough battle on the road scheduled for Sunday against the Seattle Seahawks.

For most teams, it’s never easy to play on the road in Seattle since the fans make it one of the most hostile environments in the NFL. And after watching the Seahawks survive a close call against the Atlanta Falcons, Pete Carroll’s squad should be in for another win in this one.

Seattle’s defense may not be on the same level as The Legion of Boom from many years ago, but this is still a very talented group that should be able to apply plenty of pressure on Winston throughout the contest.

Assuming this turns out to be the case, don’t be surprised if this turns out to be another game to forget for Winston.
