Postgame Thread - Week 1 vs. Bucs

[mooby]

That defense we put out there was so offensive it reminded me of last year.

I expected the offense to struggle somewhat but I really thought Quinn and Whitt would have the defense solidified.

Baker Mayfield is a 2 td guy and he put up 5. Just bad. Lotta work to do.

My only hope for this year was to be competitive every week. Keep the games close. We still have a long way to go to even reach that point.

Team came out flat and unprepared.

I swear to fucking hell, it looked like a Rivera coached/prepared team.

Sorry, that defense effort was inexcusable period. Whitt and Quinn were bad. I’m throughly pissed we are giving up 3rd and 17 first downs again.

Bucs are a good defense, but they aren’t a top offensive team period. The excuse making in here talking up the Bucs…Baker looked like Montana.

I took a nap during the 2nd half and woke up and the Cowboys were on. Same old same old.

JD is gonna get injured if he keeps running. Concussion for sure with the way he gets down. Even today he took some glancing blows.

Not encouraging, especially from the folks who claimed he is pass first QB.

Sorry if you are mid way thru the 3rd quarter and you have more running yards than passing, then you are a running QB. If you lead the team in rushing and you’re the QB, then you are a running QB.

Garbage time passing yards

It was understood back in the day that you don’t take a rookie QB and throw him in as a starter. Speed of the game, new system, building cred and confidence as a leader, etc. Now it’s expected for a first-rounder, with the explanation that he needs playing time and first-team reps to learn the game.

Only now he doesn’t even have time to learn the game. At least according to some of us.

You cannot rebuild an entire roster in a year. Rivera left us nothing minus a few guys. Christian Gonzalez would be helpful right about now. It is going to take a couple years to fix things, If we want to do it right.

Until we're 3 games over .500, I don't trust 1 fucking word anyone says positive this wretched franchise (including myself). We fucking suck for all eternity until we're 3 games over.

In 2027 we will be 7-4 (on our way to 7-10). You heard it here first.

Missed the game,just watched the 12 minute YouTube highlight package,the most impressive thing that stood out to me was Baker Mayfield.Mayfield was dropping dimes,every completion was perfectly placed and receivers were making great catches,itÂ’s hard to defend that,I thought the run defense looked worse than the pass defense.
Daniels did not play that well,yes obviously he has running ability, But he was pulling the ball down way too often and looking to run first rather than pass, I donÂ’t know if that was because the receiver's were not getting open or him not being patient in the pocket and panicking.I hate to say it,but RG3 was more impressive in his first game than this kid,but itÂ’s his first game so IÂ’m not gonna over react to his performance.

Baker has found a home in TB. He was really good yesterday.

i can remember when someone mentioned Baker coming here it was not well received.. truth is it won't matter who plays QB this team has very little Talent and Mahomes couldn't drag this corpse across the goal .. 3-4 wins at most and We get beat next week ..The damage has been done every thing since the day Snyder bought this club has inflicted long lasting damage and it will take YEARS to overcome that . realistically we need To hope that within 2 more drafts and free agency before we can truly start getting pumped ..

I think by next yr you will see a much better team overall. This year they'll be picking in the top 10 again unless something crazy happens in the secondary

lose one game and the sky is falling. If we won it'd be superbowl or bust?

whole new staff, over 50% roster change (and still missing a couple parts that we knew about going in) and this is the first time out (with a rookie QB). It's a recipe for a slow start. (It's also possible the bucs are good, but more likely CB play is just going to be an issue all year).

we'll see how week 2, 3, 5,and 7 work out.

Yeah, not a lot of middle ground in here usually on Sunday evenings/Monday mornings.

I'm not sure what the expectations were, but anyone who thought a 4-win team was going to go into a legit playoff team's house on opening day with a new everything and win, was just fooling themselves.

There were some breakdowns in the secondary, some stupid and untimely penalties, and JD looked like a rookie. Other than that, I actually thought the team was competitive and that was all I was hoping for in week 1.

Lotta work to do.

Voice of reason.
