The Tampa Bay Buccaneers got out of Los Angeles with a massive 40-17 victory over the Los Angeles Chargers, but quarterback Baker Mayfield left the stadium with a few milestones of his own.
Mayfield had a day, completing 81% of his passes for 288 yards, four touchdowns and one interception. In doing so, he joins (some, at least) elite company — he’s now one of three Buccaneers quarterbacks, along with Jameis Winston and Tom Brady, to throw for 30 or more touchdowns in a game.
He also hit a personal milestone, though. With this game, Mayfield has now hit 30 or more touchdowns for the first time in his own career, with the next closest coming last year when he threw 28. Mayfield’s four touchdown passes contributed to a massive day for Tampa Bay, where he found three different players for scores across the game.
Mayfield will look to keep adding to his total when he faces off against the Dallas Cowboys on the road next week in Week 16.
