I also expect this game to be replayed on NFL Network as one of the Games of the Week.

Doesn't mean I have to like it.

Since we are going to let our opponents cover the entire field anyway we may as well have gone for the 3 yards both times.

It's not like TB needed field position.

It could of been worse...
The defense is improving week and week and we're still in this.
Road games are always hard for us and Divison games are always tough.
Like I said could of been worse

Sorry.... TB lost this through key penalties.

Uhh, I'll slightly beg to differ. The offense threw an int that gave the ball to tampa at our 11 yard line I think. So yes they gave up that td, true, but the odds were against them getting the stop. I did not like how they looked on the last drive, not at all. Was terrible, real terrible. I did not think there should have been a final drive because the first illegal contact on Harper was total and absolute garbage. Either way, I am glad we got the win.

Does anyone know why Patrick isn't starting?

Yeah, this is the most disconcerting part to me. What the heck was going on?!?!

On the other hand, a team should be able to go up by 2 TDs halfway through the 3rd and count on the D to close out.

We play Denver and Payton Manning next week in Denver. Manning has been playing very well.

What our defense did today will not have the same out come next week. That's why I am so unsatisfied.

Wait for them to actually play the game before you count the defense out

Man... I thought our defense played awesome today! Apparently I'm in the minority though. After the first quarter it's like a light went on for everybody and our defense was amazing. Even Spags knew what was up because he took Will Smith out and let Junior play the majority of the snaps. Now we get Vitt back... I feel so happy after today's game!

It was a good game. Defense is slowly but surely getting better.
I honestly think we have a good shot on the road vs Denver.
