We need him badly. Still would see if Houston would un-ass Cooks. He didn’t fit a declining arm strength Brees style but he fits with Jameis style and would help a lot, til MT comes back

Re watched the first half …

Baun is completely lost in coverage.

He never did it in college so I'll give him a pass while he learns from coaches how to cover.

Square peg in a round hole perhaps?

If so, he is set up for failure.

I guess it’s true. You Can’t Guard Mike...when he’s not on the field.

Ok, relax Guido. I’m done,....for now. Hope he comes back soon and strong.

Baun was right back in there, swarming, slugging it out, keeping it close in the hopes that Jameis would eventually figure out how to read a blitz and make the hot read...

Yep, looked like he was benched, but thought Baun did a nice job of turning it around in the second half...

That’s a hard assignment for a guy in only his second start to do.
