Buccaneers Fans React to Tampa Bay's Win Over the Carolina Panthers

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers win in a fairly ugly game. How did Bucs fans react?
In this story:

The Buccaneers have now won their second in-division game of the season, this time against the Carolina Panthers. Tampa is now only one game back of first in the NFC South. They are currently behind the Atlanta Falcons who they will be traveling to see next Sunday.

The first half of the game was ugly and many fans were not happy. This all changed in the 3rd quarter when Baker Mayfield hit Mike Evans through the middle of the field and Evans ran for a 75-yard touchdown. Evans finished the day with 7 catches for 162 yards and a touchdown. More importantly, he finished the day with his 10th consecutive 1,000-yard season. Every single season that Mike Evans has been in the league, he has had over 1,000 yards. The only player who has more consecutive 1,000-yard seasons is Hall of Famer Jerry Rice.

Evans wasn't the only veteran wide receiver to score today. Chris Godwin, who hasn't seen much action lately, scored his first touchdown of the year.

There is still hope for the Bucs and winning the division. How did Tampa Bay Buccaneers' fans react to the Bucs win in Week 13?

One thing almost all Bucs fans can agree on is that Mike Evans and Antoine Winfield Jr. need to be paid as soon as possible. Evans and Winfield will both be free agents after this season and if the Bucs don't re-sign them, their presence will be missed.
