“I guess I am a believer in karma. Maybe we shouldn’t have gotten that first win, its fair and square… Iowa had no business winning this game, they made one play, and it was the last one”

None of this makes sense to me for either team. What’s Minnesota’s plan at QB for next season? Kyler Murray was worse than Baker on Sunday. Is McCarthy going to compete with Dart next season for the starting QB job?
Jameis is going to have a good game next Sunday and then he’ll throw 3 INTs their following game.
Also in that article: Liam Coen is the the first NFL head coach to win 15 of his first 20 games since Matt LaFleur in Green Bay.
So much winning…. unlike here.

Two of the Holding calls were bogus as well as Wirfs lining up off the LOS. All Pro left tackles do not line up wrong…period! The face mask penalties were criminal! I also saw a PI that should have been called and wasn’t. Roger says they do a fine job though. Bull …
Go Bucs!

Minnesota was gifted this game. Bucs are terrible this year but the refs made me turn off the game. Anxalone was not offsides. It was clearly delay of game for 2 full seconds….
