I’m just saying, we play the Saints twice a year. The Bucs are one of the most unpopular teams in the NFL, saw that on a trivia game show. The Bucs are wearing orange, that in itself is an insult.

The NFL and the networks will replay that 95 yarder repeatedly, and rub our nose in it, for the next 20 years.

Nobody is saying this play wasn’t an important play in the game. Obviously it was a HUGE play in the game. Probably the difference between us being 3-3 instead of 2-4. However, that doesn’t mean “want to” had anything to do with the play. That’s where I, and I think most others, disagree with Joe. Jackson is not to blame for anything that happened in this game, period.

As for the most inspirational plays in NFL history, LMAO at the exaggeration. It’s not even the most inspirational play in Saints history (the blocked punt after Katrina and Tracy Porter’s pick 6 are far ahead of it). It’s not even that big of a deal nationally. The play will be forgotten, unless by some chance the Saints re-introduce their bounty system and win the Super Bowl. As much as I know Miguel wants it to be an inspirational play, it simply isn’t.

I think Joe is dead right. To diminish the importance of the play is simply not credible. It turned the Saint’s miserable season around.

Seriously affected the Buc’s season. 3-3 is .500 at 2-4 you need a 2 game winning streak to reach .500.

You will see that replay 20 times a year for the next decade. Maybe, two decades. It’s always worse, when in the replays, the Bucs are wearing orange.

Certainly one of the most inspirational plays in NFL and Saint history.

Ignore it? Let it die? Shake it off? Joe, this what it feels like when your opinion is not the popular one but the correct one.

One good thing is did for VJax is to divert attention away from his sloppy footwork in the end zone at the end of the game. $11 million a year, Vince, mix in a ballet class or two. Game of inches.

Dude had 216 yards and 2 TDs on the day and people want to complain because his catch was only 95 yards and not 96 for the TD. Jackson is the very last person to blame for this loss.

Very simply VJ screwed up, and he knew it. If he hadn’t looked over his shoulder three times, he would have easily scored. Stop worrying about a potential hit, and earn your $11 million!

Jim Schwartz is craving the Benn’d around.

I just mentioned that because Bucs fans are as frustrated with Benn as much as Lions fans are with Titus Young. Both are 2nd rounders a d underachieving to say the least.

Is this a bait article in hopes of getting someone to go off on JBF so that JBF can ban them?

Jackson had a record day of 200+ yds. And I would venture to say that 99.99999 of the readers also don’t agree with this non-sense.

In FACT, I have seen better out of Chris Chase on his worst day than this obvious reach.

Joe, I usually agree with your comments and enjoy your articles but what is your point with this one? Are you that slow and couldn’t come up with something better? Give V-jax a break, the guy played his asa off and his effort doesn’t deserve to be second guessed. He is by far the best FA acquisition the bucs have ever made.

Sorry Joe, but saying one player wanted it more than the other is not an honest observation, but an honest opinion. I don’t care if people say that he shouldn’t be caught, but I disagree completely that Jenkins wanted it more. At best case, it’s presumptive. If he got caught due to his injury, it’s flat out wrong. He got caught because the other guy was faster, period.

Our inability to score from the 1 did not magnify this play. Our inability to score from the 1 magnifies our inability to score from the 1.

I dont question someone who turned a tip ball into a 95 yard catch and run. If im questioning anything its the fact Blount and the O-line couldnt get 1 dam yard against the worst run defense in the league… You can also throw in Schiano/Sully for the horrible play calling that called for Blount to run right up the dam middle 3 times in a row. They all disserve more criticism than VJax does.
