Howard minimalized in double coverage. Rodgers, who is the team&#8217;s top receiving back, was the biggest beneficiary.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;There was some stuff where Quizz caught a bunch of balls,&#8221; Fitzpatrick said. &#8220;He had a bunch where that&#8217;s where that was what they were giving us and we were just trying to dink and dunk at times and take what what were giving us and that was just the way that it went today.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Four of his receptions were for 10 yards or more, including a 24-yard gain in the second quarter that was the biggest gain on the Bucs&#8217; only scoring drive of the game.<\/p>\n<p>But it was a costly fourth-quarter fumble \u2014 the third of four Bucs turnovers \u2014 that was all Rodgers could think about after the game.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m (mad) as hell,&#8221; Rodgers said. &#8220;I fumbled.
