Neither Harris nor P.P. has impressed me at all. They always seem to be getting beat on their assignments. Many times on Sunday the Bucs receivers were so wide open it was mind boggling.

I'll say it again, the loss of both Smoot and Pierce has really hurt us. Pierce more than Smoot, because he was the on-field brains of this defense.

On the very positive side, despite the first half turnovers, the offense really came to life against the league's best defense. They redeemed themselves
after a shaky start and we should have won that game. It's hard to have to admit it, but the "D" has to take the lion's share of the blame for what happened on Sunday.
True enough! They had several drops on WIDE open recievers downfield. However, as you said lady T, you gotta' love the offense on Sunday. The running game was outrageous @ 10 ish yards per...........GW has his work cut out for him, I must say. This was a bad loss. I looked at the faces and listened to the interviews with the players. I feel just like that-just sad. Well, we'll have to get well on NORV
