In one slowly-unfolding play on Sunday against the Bears, the Buccaneers' Jameis Winston managed to sum up everything about his skill set and approach to quarterbacking.

Winston has shown no conscience at times when it comes to being aggressive, but he's capable of doing a lot of things many quarterbacks can't, like evading pressure from the entire Bears defense and heaving a huge pass to Mike Evans (who is 12 feet tall and a perfect receiver for Winston).

You will probably never see another play like this.

And still finds Mike Evans for 39 yards.

Let's break it down a little bit. Things started out pretty normally with Winston getting pressured.

That should be a sack, but Winston manages to escape. As he's getting his bearings (yes, intended) here come the Bears defenders.

For a second it looked like a sure-fire safety was coming and Winston was going to catch heat for a really dumb decision to keep scrambling instead of trying to get rid of the ball.

You're up by a touchdown, you've got the ball and the last place you can be hanging out is in your own end zone while being chased by multiple defenders. And yet there goes Jameis.

Fortunately for the Bucs he's a little sneaky and ended up getting free with just one man to beat before getting back to the line of scrimmage.
