The Tampa Bay Buccaneers will soon have to make a decision at quarterback: Stick with Ryan Fitzpatrick or return to Jameis Winston?

With Winston out the first three weeks due to a suspension, Fitzpatrick has led the Bucs to two surprise wins while throwing for four touchdowns and more than 400 yards in each contest.

Bucs wideout DeSean Jackson, the recipient of three of those touchdown passes, weighed in on the quarterback quandary on Monday.

"He's playing on fire right now. The way the team is rallying behind him and just playing lights out football, you have to kind of honor it," Jackson said of Fitzpatrick's play during a spot on NFL Total Access.

"You can't take the hot man out, he's on fire right now. It's like NBA Jam ... whoever's got that hot fire shot, you've got to keep shooting."

Fitzpatrick's last game as the unquestioned starter will be played under the national spotlight when the Bucs host the Pittsburgh Steelers on Monday night.
