Why is it always the opposite?

[Udogg]

Seems no matter what we think is the case, whatever unit we consider to be the strong part always starts off slow/bad/etc.

The Defense is keeping us in this game and the offense is stalling consistently. I am not sure why this is always the case with this team.

Who would have ever thought, after blowing them out twice toward the end of last season, that they would be the ones headed up and we would be the ones headed down. We are now the worst team in the NFC south. Again.

slow down pimpin. We are not the worst team in the NFC south. We are having a poor offensive game against basically a new team (coach/coordinators/key personnel). Our defense has stepped up since the 1st half. I think the offensive issues can be fixed. Just was saying that usually the side of the ball we worry about is usually the one that surprises us.

no were not, this was going to be a dog fight regardless. Tampa is at home and wants to win bad.

We spent 45:00 of this game being wayyy to cute with the playcalling. Some regular plays would have faired better than the shotgun quadruple option pistol against a team that is kicking our olines ass.

This team never gets a break. Other teams get tipped balls or in the right place to make a fumble recovery...but never this team. Black cat FTW!

[Snake]

Chud out thought himself this game. We were out of sync the whole game.

I agree. When we went straight spread, or straight single/i form we played much better. The pistols, read options were snuffed out all day. Great prep by Tampa coaches, slow changes offensively on our part. They played really well defensively so not much more to say. Plus 93 was in the backfield all game long. Not much we could do.

Bucs played some inspired football, I suspect Schiano really talked up that butt raeping last season.

no turnovers...Stewart is so important to us and we need him back

But that's a what we is a possed to do?

[DangerClose]
