Where is the game of football most fundamentally won or lost? In the trenches, controlling the line of scrimmage.

How do they all describe both our offensive and defensive lines? Monsters.

And then they say we can’t beat NY? Is that their REAL opinions, or are they just reading from a script some lame wannabe sports-journalist intern wrote for them?

i think our passing game in week 17 will be vastly better than our passing game was week 1. this offense is still finding its rhythm, i’d say the criticism is warranted based on the body of work since the start of last season.

We’ve played one game so far. One.

Not even our own coaches know what we are good at yet. We’ve simply not seen enough competition to establish an identity.

The media is paid to write and talk. And they do. They base their opinions on a miniscule sample and we take it seriously?

What we do know is that the new additions seem solid and our coaching staff takes their job seriously.

I have a strong feeling that this statement will be put to the test in this game against the Giants….. If Freeman Can’t do more than check down passes then the Bucs might find themselves playing from behind all game!

The Defense and running game can only carry the team for so long… For example, If a QB throws several ints in a game he wears out the defense and gets the team to far behind to keep running the ball…. Hoping we avoid this scenario.

Free will only reap what he sows and right now he’s still sowing from how bad he sucked last year. Its gonna take a while before anyone truly forgets last season. He’s gonna have to force people into a different perspective through his play. I for one though he played remarkably better against the panties. He just had some dropped balls and penalties that hurt is all.

In this case, Simms was happily making those comments without seeing very much of the team this year. It’s his job to comment, but…

…he particularly enjoys saying negative things about the Bucs because he feels the Bucs ruined his son’s career. He may be right, because Gruden may very well have done so over time. Under a true teacher (and Gruden was NOT a teacher), Chris might have developed into a starter…maybe not an elite one, but perhaps a starter.

So Simms will NEVER be positive about the Bucs…not with a straight face.

I love this, still under the radar. I just read that Deangelo Williams is rated as a prime power back and our Martin is way down there in the latest NFL top ten items. Williams, I believe, didn’t gain a yard. Besides a line, might we have LBs and DBs, oh old reliable, Number 20, is only the DB of the week. I don’t think anyone but the coaches know what we can do, the players are seeing what they can do each outoing, but we will see on Sunday.

Well, last week, when we needed to pass, we passed. generally, we didnt need to. You take what the defense gives you. If they are running a cover 2, you arent going to get shots deep downfield but you can run up the middle as the Mike is dropping. Without knowing what look freeman was getting, you cannot judge his decision making.
When Jawarski, Young or dilfer start doubting Josh, we have a problem…Phil is a horrible analyst, always has been
