The cherry on top: Bucs lose to QB-less Rams

[CPcavedweller]

The Steelers are always a threat. I believe they may have the best chance at beating us up in the interior and we always have trouble covering running backs out of the backfield. Bell has really perfected the head shake to get guys moving the wrong direction.

I'm think we are going to need to score 24-30 points to win but i hope I'm wrong.

When Lovie was hired there was a sense of relief for us Bucs fans that the guy leading the team has seen success in the league before and knows what it takes to win. Now that Lovie has been outcoached in back to back games, most of us Bucs fans are frustrated, but also confused as Lovie has always been a highly respected personality in Tampa.

 

This game against Rams could have easily been won despite our defense making their 3rd stringer look like a probowler. Lovie's ultra-conservative ways just killed any chance our team had. If it was Sean Payton, Chip Kelly or even a defensive minded Riverboat Ron, Bucs could have had 11 more points on the board. A run play on 3rd and 7 in 4th qtr when McCown at that point had only 3 incompletions /facepalm. We cannot stop anyone on defense and yet Lovie chooses to play conservative offense as if we have the dominant 90s defense. Right now we are a pathetic team. As usual, somewhat talented on paper, underachieving in reality.

So you say you need help on defense ehhh?

 

 

Hardy for V.Jackson sounds fair?

Glennon will be playing by the time we face them again and he is much more scary to play against, IMO, not that hes anything great.

Unfortunately the 49ers look pretty tough.  I think we could beat them though.  Chicago's run D is atrocious.  Their selling out leaving the middle of that field wide open.

What happened to the Bears' defense?  I mean, damn.

Never underestimate Lovies love for a QB. I remember when he replaced a red hot Orton for a rusty and broken Grossman in a playoff game because he started the first of the year.

[Plewis]

They should be giving Glennon a shot. McCown is awful.

 

Pie cuz Im a State grad and it's true. McClown's proven to be a 2nd or 3rd string QB. Glennon on the other has all the upside and is probably more polished right now than McClown.

Mike Evans didn't look so good after that last hit.

[carolina-chuck]

How could you be this bad after these offseason additions + draft.

speaking of which, what was up with mike evans? he jogged to the sideline but come on man you have to get up for the spike

and that was against us, Orton beat us in the regular season and we beat rex in the post

I wanna know the update too. Evans looked pretty bad. I don't think it's a concussion. Looked more like a neck or back.

[The Huddler]

No way. You talking about this same Bucs team who the media said was playoff bound? I thought the Bucs were going to be unstoppable with Lovie?
