Buc'd by the Bills


Wow, well let me say I haven't watched a Tampa Bay game for the season yet. No, not because I don't want to but work has saved me from witnessing the horrific football that's being played by them. Week two, in Buffalo against the Bills and what do the Bucs do? Something similar to last game! I'm surprised the Bucs are putting up 20 points a game but the bad part? Allowing 30 or more. You can assume this starts with the defensive job being played on Tampa's side. A team known for their grueling defense over the years are truly missing Monte Kiffin and some of his defensive schemes.

Looking at a 4 min highlight clip the minor miscues the Bucs made is what cost them a good chance of winning the game. The defense got some nice interceptions but missed tackles and coverage. The offense looked pretty solid for the most part and Leftwich made some pretty good passes. If the Bucs can get it together they could do better than I expect them to. Week three brings the red hot Giants and Eli to Raymond James Stadium though, we'll see how that goes.

Terrible Tampa Bay Buccaneers!

So it's one week into the NFL season and I really don't give a damn about it! I will admit it has something to do with my Magic being a top team in the NBA, but that doesn't mean I should neglect my Buccaneers in rebuilding mode.

I honestly didn't have high expectations for the Bucs. I mean who can blame me when you release Derrick Brooks (One of my favorite Buccaneers of all time) and then overthrow the coaching staff after last season's horrific ending. The Bucs have not seen a franchise Quarterback in years, which produced one Super Bowl victory at the least.

I didn't get a chance to see week one against Dallas, but from what I heard and saw was that Romo tore up the secondary while Leftwich was sub-par and the running game was the best part the Bucs had all game.

I'm not really giving up on my team, as I'll root for them all season long, but it's going to be a long season and one I really will dare myself to watch. I say the Bucs will win 5 games max, not being a sell-out but sometimes you've got to be real about your team.

As for my NFL predictions I'll have to get back on those soon!

GO BUCS :/
