I’m not sure why you expected different

The offense to actually do something. I even predicted a 28-6 loss, but this is just embarrassing.

Yeah, If Minshew starts the 2nd half

If we are going throw every down, why not.

Quez should be having a monster game. Couple big time plays he’s been wide open. 

This happens every week.  I’m starting to wonder if teams just don’t provide help or zone coverage deep against him because they know it’s a waste of personnel.

Hurts isn't seeing the field well enough.  The front 4 is starting to win for us though. But, Hurts isn't processing things fast enough and he is throwing late and not making good decisions.

On Madden, yes.

You’d think some folks would be happy with the first half. They get their ITYS and it shows how far behind good teams they are. 

We all (well, most of us) knew this was coming. It was obvious. No one wants to lose, especially this way.

Jalen Hurts can turn into a progression read QB

Gannon will actually start to mix up his defensive looks

My Johnson will grow 5 more inches before my next birthday. 

 

 

Hey Im a believer.

We aren’t that far behind in this game. This should at worst a 1 possession game. At best we’re up 21-17. 

Gardner should just run onto the field and if anyone asks say I didn't see another QB on the field.

They don’t. Tampa has been sitting 8/9 in the box just about all game.

They’re allowing the Tampa defense to play in their offensive backfield; safeties are making tackles behind the LOS for God’s sake.

Jordan Howard 0 carries in the first half.  DeVonta Smith not even looked at for the first 25 minutes.  Hurts was totally confused and unable to process until late first half, then an awful throw rolling to his left for the INT

Jordan Howard not getting carries isn’t the problem. They are running outside and the defense is too quick.  They need to go at Vea.  The pass play calls have been terrible.  It’s been back to bad Sirianni. 

Coach Jimmy:   "All we have to do is score on this first possession and we're right in this ball game."

 

Trouble is... the offense hasn't got any rhythm or rhyme.  Disjointed and they can't bully this team with their OL... and they can't beat them wide because the Bucs have too much speed.

Just what I thought. Bucs cried the LOS and that was the ball game. The telling observation was made by Aikman wondering why we don’t pass to Smith on 15 yard curls. I wonder why. 

Hey Goeddert, how’s about you actually catch the fing ball when you’re wide open?

We have enough problems without you missing easy friggin layups.

Remember last year when Lamar Jackson put up a whopping 3 points in the game the Ravens got eliminated? 

Don’t bother showing up to the playoffs with a running back under center.

But we aren’t because we aren’t good enough at spots. It’s clear. This is good medicine for the FO.

Wilson doesn’t fix the team.  

He might not. however I’m guessing this game is closer if he’s out there

Frankly the defense wasn’t great but they were good enough for this game to be within reach if our quarterback/offense played better. It’s one thing to bash the defense like we do when they play better quarterbacks as they are not good against them. however it’s also unfair to them to ask them to continuously make stops knowing they are deficient and not good when the offense the first 3 possessions of the game had 1 first down and 17 total yards.

No ish Sherlock.  But every GD game they love to throw the bs flags.  Last night as well.  Terrible.  

These mixed crews are really bad - like they all want a piece of the action.

And @time2rock will be banging Kate Beckinsale.  Don't know how, but will happen.

(old EMB inside joke)

 

I called for the under of 8 total completed passes...looking like it'll be a push for Hurts.

If he runs into the defensive secondary during the play, I can name at least one person who won’t notice.

They would also need Vic Fangio to somehow emerge out of the stands, drop kick Gannon in the face and tell him the get off the field. A real man is stepping in.

I think it’s the expected.  Brady 75% passing, 3 methodical scoring drives, Bucs selling out against the run.

Have to see something out of Hurts in the 2nd half.  He was confused and rattled for most of the first half.  He has to show he can do more than the off tackle designed runs 

It's time to start running Howard
