| Oct 20, 2015 04:39 AM EDT

Washington Redskins' Rashad Ross (#19) is congratulated by teammates Jackson Jeffcoat (#53) and Stevan Ridley (#22) after scoring a fourth quarter touchdown against the New York Jets last week.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers (2-3) will look to register their first back-to-back wins this season as they visit the Washington Redskins (2-4) at the FedEx Field this Sunday for a Week 7 NFL 2015 season encounter.

Tampa Bay is coming off a bye week after beating the Jacksonville Jaguars, 38-31, in Week 5 at the Raymond James Stadium to finally snap their 11-game home losing run that lasted for almost two years, as reported by Fansided.

This year's rookie top pick Jameis Winston played superbly, passing 13-of-19 for 209 yards, one touchdown, no interceptions, and two sacks for a 51.4 QBR and 122.5 rating. The team got the most points from their running back, Doug Martin, who rushed for 123 yards in 24 carries for two touchdowns.

Meanwhile, the Redskins dropped their second straight game against the New York Jets, 34-20, at the MetLife Stadium last Sunday, via Yahoo Sports.

Jay Gruden's squad could not contain the Jets duo of Ryan Fitzpatrick and Chris Ivory as they gave up four touchdowns from the two en route to the decisive loss.

Kirk Cousins struggled in the match, throwing 25-of-43 for 196 yards, one touchdown, two interceptions, and one sack for a low QBR of 36.0 and rating of 57.9.

Washington will look to quell their losing streak against the up and coming Buccaneers at their home stadium this Sunday where they had been successful in their recent outings.

Prediction: Redskins win, 21-10.
