Memory of loss to Saints replays in minds of Bucs
 

TAMPA — Mike Williams could have chosen to trash the video and forget that it ever happened.

But the Bucs' third-year receiver instead is more than willing to look back at that fateful play at the end of Tampa Bay's loss to the Saints on Oct. 21.

With the Bucs down seven and looking to tie the score, Williams caught what appeared to be a touchdown with time expiring in the fourth quarter. Ultimately, the score was nullified by an illegal touching penalty because Williams had first gone out of bounds and come back into the field of play.

"It's a play I've definitely learned from," Williams said. "I just have to stay in bounds. If I do that, we tie that game and keep playing."

It's a particularly painful game to look back on for other reasons, too. The Bucs had 513 total yards that day, their second-most of the season, with WR Vincent Jackson (216 receiving yards) and QB Josh Freeman (420 passing yards) setting career highs.

Yet, Tampa Bay lost the game 35-28, blowing a 21-7 advantage.

Hopefully, after this game we will hand them new things to be traumatized about.

Blah, Blah! Whiny cry babies. I guess whatever floats your boat on the way down. I guess we will have to give them new memories to replay in the tini, tiny minds.

Stay in bounds Williams and you don't get into position for the TD.
