They are just hyping things up. We (Bucs) are just an average team on the road and better step up and play decent ball or we will be sitting in a sports bar watching the games come play off time.

We both struggle in similar ways on the road, but you can't convince any of the dipsh*ts in the national sports media that the Bucs are anything but worlds better than Carolina.

The verbiage of the author changes entirely when talking about the Bucs too. A "solid four-point loss" against the Cowboys. What? A "solid loss" against a Brad Johnson quarterbacked team? He trashes us for having to come back against the Lions and yawns at us blowing out the Saints and Chiefs, but he practically sucks Gruden off for his comeback wins over the Chiefs and Lions.

Also, he claims that our wins over Oakland, Kansas City, and Detroit came when they were in their worst shape. Those teams are a combined 5-32, what the hell does their "good shape" look like?

On the opposing defense, keep your eyes on right defensive end Julius Peppers, who's found his motor again.

Classic generic sports writing that is off base from the truth. Pep has never been known as a "motor" guy.

on a passing game that relies heavily on runners coming out of the backfield.

Really?!?!

This dude just watched the Packers game and thinks he's an expert on the panthers.

Like ive said before Fu*k em...but if we lose on monday all these columns that have been written will be vindicated

Oh, absolutely. If we lose, they're all going to look brilliant.

Look, there are plenty of reasons to pick against us on Monday and he makes valid points about the passing game. On the other hand, half of his article is just unfiltered bullshit that makes no fuging sense, and therein lies my problem.

As Rodgers neared the sideline it was clear on television that Peppers should have pulled up and settled for what would have been no gain. Instead, he put his shoulder down and launched into Rodgers, drawing a late hit penalty and setting Green Bay up at the seven. So yes, Peppers has his motor back, but he's also showing the reckless demeanor that characterized his early career.

Peps late hit was the play of the game... it knocked Rodgers silly and helped us win...

Peps having a "reckless demeanor" should scare the sh*t out of opposing teams.

I'm glad the media guys are down on us, the Panthers play better that way.

This piece from that article says all that I need to know about this fug-stick who wrote it..

"Then came that win over Carolina, a win over Seattle, and a solid four-point loss in Dallas that ended on fourth-and-five at the Cowboys 18."

He neglects to mention that it was against a Cowboys team with Brad Johnson at QB.....and I dont think anyone is going to forget how absolutely god-awful they were without Romo.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      Strange, every news article and tweet I just searched all mentioned waivers. It is definitely his sixth year of at least 6 games. All I was trying to think of earlier was at the vet min could he beat out Bryce in camp next year lol. He's kinda got the old Darnold issue where he can obviously launch deep balls and qb run at a level Bryce will never achieve, but it sounds like he would be content being like a Josh Allen backup who doesn't throw the whole game plan out the window if he has to come in for a series or two. If we had him and for some reason still wanted to start Bryce he would kinda do what Justin Fields was doing the other night with Dangeruss, coming in for designed runs and maybe some play action/triple option rpo things to go deep. That would be so obvious and sad though. At least Russ can still sling it 40 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist

      Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.

      Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
