Personnel change and refs wouldn't allow us to snap.

Cam with the touch again. Over the CB man coverage and under the safety allowing Greg to get down before the hit.

holy poo that was fast.

It was for a fraction of a second. That kinda thing happens all the time. I'll live with that.

TD with the huge pressure there. We showed Double A gap but dropped Klein back after the snap. TD came through practically untouched. Forced a throw by Winston--a good one, to boot--but Josh was there with the defense.

Please someone tell me they saw that Coleman hit.

Celebration was fine. It's the BALL AS A PROP that got him.

solid wrap-up by Gano.

We HAVE to get off the field on third down this week. The Sucs are horrible when faced with 3d downs, and if we can't get pressure and get stops, then it's going to be a long day. Forcing them into tough 3d and long situations will be key. I'm also looking for some type of non-offense score, whether that be ST or defense. I want 6 from some other unit as well as a TO that puts us in great field position. Get out on top early and force Jameis to beat us. 28-17 Panthers

Great link. Long read that does a good job of analyzing our team. The Bucs' boards have done a great job of Panthers coverage leading u to this game.

There has been nothing but steady rain/drizzle in Uptown for the last few days. It has been constant. The field has probably reached its carrying capacity. JStew loves the wet stuff, though. This could be the game he gets over 100.

I thought someone won already. Alright, still in it!

The VERY FACT that he had to put Mallet in parenthesis completely undermines his whole point. Like, dude, you're putting his name in parenthesis because your pronoun is inconclusive, i.e., we don't know who "he" is because you don't know who you starting QB is. What a joke.

You're arguing with yourself there, man. You made the Browns and Bengals comment. I'm talking about this year. If Mallet is good at keeping his teams in games, well that's right in line with my thinking of this game: it will be close, but Cam gets the edge over the Houston D before Mallet over ours.

But not the PANTHERS defense. And there's a reason he's not the starter. Or is he?

BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!! That dude honestly thinks Mallet could lead that team to a victory over our D? Holy poo.

Panthers trending early at 68% across all predictions. Saints are unanimous right now. And Falcons coming in at 43%. God, I want the Bucs to upset the Saints. If Panthers hold home court, we'll have the conference lead early, which is always a good thing. Put up 14+ points and we're golden!

lucky sumbitch

Which is exactly why I give the edge to us. Cam > Mallet/Hoyer. Close game. First to double digits and whoever wins the turnover battle wins this game IMO.

Lucky bastards. Chip shat the bed RR style.

Falcons D has been atrocious all damn game and got lucky as poo on that last series. Unbelievable.

Julio setting the tone for the year. If Josh shuts him down, that'd legitimate his demands, and I'm all for franchising him or using him as trade bait.

IDK how any fan of football wouldn't want to talk about this game. Eagles with a new QB. Atlanta the odds on favorite to win the NFCS. Yeah, this game is very intriguing, though we may not get any clues as to how to be Atlanta considering the Eagles have a vastly better offense.

A quick look at the box score, we won because we won the turnover battle and we dominated them on 3d conversion. Everything else was pretty even. I'm sure @KB_fan can offer greater insight.
