This team will get crushed in the playoffs. 

A Wins a win but boy oh boy do we have some problems

I'll try and hold off the pessimism until I see how we do vs ATL. If Byrd will be good to go, that will be huge

It's bitter sweet because we're gonna get blown out in the playoffs and everyone is gonna get extended including the coaching staff and GM.

Goddammit can you please just let me be happy for a few seconds before you poo on my good time? ;)

Our D-line won us this game. Cam had a crucial play, but he wasn't dominant today. The numbers were fairly average... and that's being generous.

Look, Cam was THE reason for our Super Bowl run. But that season is the outlier. He's not an elite QB anymore. This year, he's 18th in yards, 10th in TDs, 6th highest total number of interceptions, 22 in QBR.

Roll in rushing stats please. Judging him as only a passer is BS. almost like only judging CMC via rushing yards, ypc and rushing TDS....

we do seem to play up or down to the competition, so, we got that going for us.

Yeah don't listen to that Debbie downer BS.  He also just beat the Vikings...  anything can happen in the playoffs. And we have experience having gone to the Super Bowl just 2 years ago

I'm pretty sure Boger has reffed a Super Bowl.

Why does that matter?

we were farther than 5 yards out when Cam drew them offsides btw. that should have been a 5 yard penalty and 1st down at the 1. you only do half the distance to the goal when the full yards would take you inside the endzone.

I don't think that is the way it works.  The rule is if the penalty moves the ball more than half the distance to goal, then its only half the distance.  If we had been at the nine yard line, the penalty would have moved it 4.5 yards.

Quote

If the enforcement of a distance penalty would move the ball more than half the distance from the spot of enforcement to the offender’s goal line, the penalty shall be half the distance from the spot of enforcement to its goal line. This general rule supersedes any other general or specific enforcement of a distance penalty.

Honestly after seeing that replay....how was that our ball...it did look like Winston had it lol wtf happened?

Payback for an "earhole" facemask that never happened and multiple pass interferences that never happened.

Rookies aren't allowed to improve throughout the season?

That was the point of my post. CMC HAS improved

He may be right. We played like refried ass today.

That said, I'm still going to enjoy that we're at least in the playoffs.

[LA_Panther]

I know we played like $hit and had no business winning this against a better team .... but please let me enjoy this for 24 hrs at least 

[OneBadCat]

As ugly as the win was you have to give credit to the Bucs. They are a solid team when they face a division foe. They almost beat Atlanta last week.

Really hope Byrd will be alright. He’s our only speed guy with hands.

It's an indicator that the league thinks more of his performance than we do.
