Bucs Packers

[nipster]

First couple of drives looked shaky, looking good now.

Rodgers just threw a pick and it is lucky he dont have 3 by now

[MianoSM]

Not a bad half so far.

[nipster]

holy shit, Dexter Jackson finally realized he is supposed to run North-South

[nipster]

MOTHERFUCKING Michael Clayton

[dan]

bucs D carrying the team still. but if they get tired, it won't help.

[nipster]

They need to cut this guy, he is a liability

[Strongest Man In The World]

They need to cut this guy, he is a liability
I actually agree with this bag of douche. THE GUY SUCKS!!!

PS go jermaine.....!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[rebels]

Nice recovery of the fumble and SCORE! w00t

[nipster]

Defence is FIRED UP!!

[Strongest Man In The World]

Gettin sick of moose and his croony... "with all the momentem the bucs have, that 15 yard pentalty just took it away"

check the score, check the numbers... this game is all bucs so far

[nipster]

Moose will always be a Cowboys and Packers MARK

[nipster]

Excellent defensive play on that INT by green bay, gotta give them credit on that, otherwise it would have been a big gain by TB

[rebels]

Alright, two interceptions and scoring two times in a row. Come on Buc's defense.

[nipster]

That third one is on Griese

[Strongest Man In The World]

I really wish that the bucs would find a reliable QB. im not asking for a manning, or a montana. Just a reliable one that wont throw pics to give away the game

[Strongest Man In The World]

Is it me, or are BIB's becoming alsmot standard for every runback? Ive never seen them being called so much, ever!

[nipster]

The officiating today is godawful

[TampaDude]

Is it me, or are BIB's becoming alsmot standard for every runback? Ive never seen them being called so much, ever!

+1 I'm actually surprised when the refs DON'T call BIB.

[nipster]

WOW!!!!

What a HIT/INT

[J-Dizzle]

refs sucked in this game but the Bucs D was awesome except for a few plays.......hahahahah Matt Flynn

[2MuchDuctTape]

Man that was a lot of INTs!


Off topic, I felt so bad for Matt Bryant everytime they showed him blowing a kiss to the sky....he looked incredibly sad :( :( :(

[J-Dizzle]

ya he showed alot of heart going out there and doing what he did. props to Matt Bryant. every kick was solid,except for that out of bounds kickoff but whos going to give him crap for that?

[rebels]

I felt bad for Matt Bryant as well. You could tell he was trying hard to hold his composure. Glad to see the Bucs pulled through and won.

[billybongthorton]

great game, the packers offense looked kinda bad against us

[Ep41382]

great game, the packers offense looked kinda bad against us

lets bring Rodgers back to earth....lol....

[billybongthorton]

lets bring Rodgers back to earth....lol....

that very last hit he took damn sure brought him back to earth hes gonna be pissing blood for a week :lol:

[Fatalia]

Can someone answer one question....

I was at the game.. and sitting in the nose bleeds.

There was a fumble and we returned for a TD. I couldn't see how the hell the ball got loose. Nor could I see it on the replay on the big screens.

How the eff did the ball get loose? :lol:

[Ep41382]

yes, Brooks knocked it loose, and Phillips picked it up and returned it

[Just Dave]

I know its a long season, and please don't consider this a prediction, but these guys remind me of 2002. "serviceable" QB, decent offense, defense smashing mouths and scoring points.

[billybongthorton]

:gordy: we did lose to the saints that first game also that season :gordy: :gordy:

[nipster]

I dont remember Brad Johnson averaging 3 INT's per game

[Bucsfan]

that very last hit he took damn sure brought him back to earth hes gonna be pissing blood for a week :lol:

Didn't just bring him back to earth but just about put him INTO the earth!

[billybongthorton]

Didn't just bring him back to earth but just about put him INTO the earth!

+1 on that, i want that as my animated sig but i cant find it

[Miles]

I dont remember Brad Johnson averaging 3 INT's per game

this is what worries me. i'm glad to see the defense gelling and actually closing out a game, the running game is stout and can get things done... but fuck me running, greise's gotta get a hold of the INTs. That kind of shit will cost you the game more often than not.

[TrackStar]

I have several observations.

The bucs have been winning games that they have been turning the ball over alot in against GOOD teams. To me this says that the bucs have a VERY good TEAM. They have alot of talent in all fazes of the game and can hang with any team in the league right now.

Griese has been playing awesome save for 3-4 HORRABLE throws a game. If he can stop doing that I can see the bucvs going to the superbowl playing the way they are. You take those int's away and you have blow outs against the bears and packers. 2 teams considered to be top teams in the NFL right now.

And how about Gaines Adams. Hes been getting pressure on the QB's the last couple of weeks and has 2 interceptions the past 2 games. His play is improving.

shit, if him and ruud can keep up their pace, they're both locks for the pro bowl.

Yeah, Gaines just took over Green Bays last possesion, running Rodgers out of bounds for a sack then getting the game-winning INT. Seems to get better every week.

Honestly Griese hasn't LOST us any games, but he really hasn't been helping either. If he was throwing 4 TD passes a game maybe it would be acceptable averaging about 3 INT's a game, but he's not.

I wish they would try to get Luke McCown primed as the started, great mobile QB(Garcia), but can have good pocket presence at the same time(Griese).

Yeah, the Bucs are looking pretty solid right now...but it's a long season...we'll see...

[Love Doctor]

Denver has no defense, I hope Grease has not INT and we control that game from start to finish.

I know Denver has the #1 rated offense and they are playing at home, but we have the kind of defense that will take care of that.

Go Bucs....

[J-Dizzle]

^ Ya Denvers defense is horrible against the pass,just look at their last two games. Drew Brees and the Saints just opened up holes in the secondary. This should be a scoring fest for us i hope cause if our Defense plays the way they have been we can go along way this season.

[dan]

the bucs have yet to be really tested, IMO.

the saints game might have been different had griese played. the saints are so-so.

the falcons are on the lower end still, but are showing progress.

the bears are so-so.

the packers are so-so. they had a good first two games, but dallas exposed them.

the bucs really squeaked by the last 2 wins. one in OT, this one in the final minutes. if griese keeps the INTs down, this team is good. right now, they are above mediocre, but not great yet.

the real tests are going to be in 3 of the next 4 weeks before their bye.

@denver - bucs can win this game if they shut denver down like KC did.
carolina - nothing to scoff at, carolina is looking sharp this season so far.
seattle - a trap game maybe, they'll likely be 1-4 by the time they get to tampa.
@dallas - tampa never seems to get it done in dallas. if the bucs won this one, i would be impressed.
@kansas city - may be like 2-5 or something. should be easy pickins.
bye - and what a great place for a bye, just about in the middle of the season.
minnesota - depends which minn team shows up. bucs should have it.
@detroit - lol @ detroit.
new orleans - i think it will be different this time.
@carolina - dont know yet
@atlanta - i think the bucs can go into rowdy ATL and get this win. depends how much growing up matt ryan has done since week 2 and how Atlanta is faring overall by then. they may be looking to play spoiler.
san diego - if the bucs are headed for the playoffs, this will be the test to see if they'll get past the first round.
oakland - could be a tuneup or a trap game, oakland has the talent and the speed, they'll get a new coach soon and maybe turn it around.

the bucs have the last 2 games at home which really helps, and will be wrapped up with division play by week 15 @ atlanta, so they will have 2 weeks to really figure out their post season goals and having SD and Oakland at home should give them momentum and the chances to secure some home field adv.

it would be ridiculous to have the bucs in the super bowl here at home. i dont know if thats happened before or not.

[J-Dizzle]

nope i think the Bucs would be the 1st to play in the super bowl hosted by its city

[Bucsfan]

+1 on that, i want that as my animated sig but i cant find it

Not animated but still nice. :lol:

[TrackStar]

^teehee.

But yea, the schedule looks pretty nice right about now. Not alot of tests besides maybe carolina and san diego.

[25psi]

That Greg White pic is awesome.


The pass rush is returning and the D is generating turnovers, the Tampa 2 starting to return to its dominating ways.


Davin Joseph sounds like he could return vs. Denver.

[Lil Ze']

^teehee.

But yea, the schedule looks pretty nice right about now. Not alot of tests besides maybe carolina and san diego.Only those two huh. I guess we will have no problem with Dallas? Or beat a team that Gruden is 0-3 against as our coach (The Seahawks). Not like the Broncos will be hard either since they're a pretty damn good offensive team and awesome at home. :roll:

[TrackStar]

I don't think the bucs will have any issues with Dallas nor the Seahawks. And denver has shit for defense and is the type of team the bucs should do well against. So yea, carolina and san diego.

[J-Dizzle]

Seattle has all sorts of issues going on right now. After the next 2 weeks before we play them i think well see what both teams have to offer. As far as the rest of the schedule goes, Minnesota could be a challenging game but a game we should win.The last 2 games against San Diego and Oakland will be a decent test if we are going to the playoffs.

[Miles]

The last 2 games against San Diego and Oakland will be a decent test if we are going to the playoffs.

still a LOT of football to be played before anyone even THINKS playoffs.

[J-Dizzle]

see the key word "IF" :lol:

[Lil Ze']

I don't think the bucs will have any issues with Dallas nor the Seahawks. And denver has shit for defense and is the type of team the bucs should do well against. So yea, carolina and san diego.
Lol @ that statement.

[TrackStar]

Ehh, whatever. You tend to laugh at all my statements then disappear when I'm right everytime. Either that or scew what I said even though its smacking you in the face with print.

[Lil Ze']

Yeah that's what happens. Like Randy Moss leaving the Pats? Lol. Cowboys have the number two offense in the league. They are going to be a tough team to beat and test of how good our team is.

[Miles]

i've said it before, i'll say it again... because i think it bears repeating:

you two seriously need to just fuck already. all this sexual tension isn't healthy.

[TrackStar]

Yeah that's what happens. Like Randy Moss leaving the Pats? Lol. Cowboys have the number two offense in the league. They are going to be a tough team to beat and test of how good our team is.

See. you even gave an example of you pretending I said somthing I didn't even though its in print. You don't know shit about football and you prove it consistently.

[25psi]

Not like the Broncos will be hard either since they're a pretty damn good offensive team and awesome at home. :roll:

I agree about Dallas, they are still a top-tier team despite a loss to a good Redskins team, Seahawks seem to be fading though and I think we can take them at home.


The Broncos though, the implosion started last week when they spotted KC 200yds rushing.They have played Oakland, San Diego, New Orleans, and KC. Lets see how they do against the Bucs D.

[nipster]

Dallas I dont know, but I dont see us losing to Denver or Seattle

[Lil Ze']

See. you even gave an example of you pretending I said somthing I didn't even though its in print. You don't know shit about football and you prove it consistently.
I already owned you with your own quotes, but Ok. Because you have proved me wrong so much.:roll: Lol. Keep trying guy.

[TrackStar]

huh?

[J-Dizzle]

depending on which offense shows up for dallas we could have a chance but if they play like they did the first three games it will be tough,if they play like they did against the skins, well have a chance.

[Lil Ze']

I don't think the bucs will have any issues with Dallas nor the Seahawks. And denver has shit for defense and is the type of team the bucs should do well against. So yea, carolina and san diego.:lol:

[J-Dizzle]

^ Denver still gave up a decent amount in rushing yards
TB Den
1st downs 17 17
Total Yards 307 333
Passing 168 227
Rushing 139 106
Penalties 5-30 6-55
3rd Down Conversions 6-15 6-15
4th Down Conversions 0-0 0-0
Turnovers 1 1
Possession 30:47 29:13

i honestly think it was a evenly matched game...

[Lil Ze']

My point was Denver was definitely going to be a test, since we ended up losing to them. So will the Seahawks as bad as they are right now and so will Dallas.

You also left out
Tam Den
Sacks - 0 3

[J-Dizzle]

well since we always split the series with the panthers,im wondering what this weekend will end up like? if seattle continues to get blown out,we have to win especially on a nationally televised sunday night game.

[Lil Ze']

I'm only worried about Seattle because Gruden has never beat them as a our head coach (0-3) and was 3-3 in Oakland. Holmgren has him figured out. Panthers are looking good right now. 34-0 is like damn.

[Treysdad]

I thought the announcers said last night that Gruden has never beaten or was 0-3 against the Broncos when they're home. Or something like that.

[Lil Ze']

This is the second time he has played them as our coach. He is now 0-2. The other loss was in Tampa. As the Raiders coach he was 1-2 in Oakland & 0-3 in Denver.

[25psi]

My point was Denver was definitely going to be a test, since we ended up losing to them. So will the Seahawks as bad as they are right now and so will Dallas.

Sacks - 0 3
The D held them to 16 points at home, thats a definant pass for them. Why the offense tried to keep running plays the outside was beyond me, that and the stupid little check-down passes over the middle.

Invesco field is tough to win in. Not sure what happened on offense today, but I think Griese proved that they only way he can move the football is when he throws ~3 picks a game, today he was just content with stalled drives because he was worried about throwing the pick.

[TrackStar]

:lol:

As someone who is knowledgable about the game of football you would know of the saying "Any given Sunday." But I guess what we all know about you holds true. You don't know anything.

[TrackStar]

Anyway, the bucs beat themselves. Endless penalties killed several drives, they should of walked away with an easy win. Especially if the o-line didnt decide to suck this game.

"Any given sunday."

[Lil Ze']

That or everyone but you knew Denver would be no walk in the park since Gruden has only beat them once his entire career.

[TrackStar]

You know how much water that kind of stupid shit holds? None. All that matters is this team this year. Gruden or anyones record against another team is irrelevant. Thats just stupid fan newspaper filler.

Anyway, I also forgot to mention Grieses play. He was terrified to make a mistake. He knew he was about to get yanked for the int. So he played it too safe with dink and dunk passing. I hope garcia starts next week.

[Lil Ze']

Jesus you're an idiot. You're right a coach having another coaches number no matter what team he has been on means nothing. Also Gruden's play calling has drastically changed over the years.:roll:

[TrackStar]

Nice. Go back to your newspaper filler.
