One of the things I been afraid of about the Bucs
 

May be finally happening.

They hired Bruce Arians who is no slouch for a HC.

If they were to ever right Winstons ship or find a suitable QB replacement similar to what we saw with Fitzpatrick for a couple games, we know how dangerous they can be because of the WR talent they got, the only thing they dont have is a decent RB.

The question remains can teams bring out the INT Machine Winston?

Tampa has 3 very good linebackers as well.

DC Todd Bowles has that team headed in the right direction.

I do believe we are overreacting to the Tampa win yesterday.

The Rams were winning with smoke and mirrors the first 3 weeks. They got exposed finally, with Gurley being about 50% of his former self and Goff showing that he is a truly mediocre QB when he has to carry the load.

This is going to be the same old crappy turnover machine that is Winston in these next 12 games. Their defense is middling.

I expect 2 interceptions and a sack fumble from Winston this coming weekend.

Saints 30, Bucs 20.

The bucs have a RB in Ronald Jones.. he is slowly taking over carries and has been very productive, think he is averaging over 5ypc.

The Bucs are the biggest threat in the division. They have 2 weak spots; a hot and cold QB and a weak secondary.

You put up 50 pts on ANY team in the NFL and you are going to contend. While I do think the Rams are an average team this year I think the Bucs are for real and will be our main competition.
We never play well against them.

Re: One of the things I been afraid of about the Bucs
 

Contend with what?

Inconsistency?

That's all the Bucs have been with Winston at the helm.

He's a mess and he'll continue to be a mess. The kid is a moron.

Re: One of the things I been afraid of about the Bucs
 

Bucs 55 on the road
Saints 12 at home., no starting QB
Bucs are the pick in my pickem

Re: One of the things I been afraid of about the Bucs
 

recent years we been splitting with them to, probably same case this year as they coming in at the right time to face us.

Re: One of the things I been afraid of about the Bucs
 

Arians tapped his old NFC West notes for this game.

Bucs d line is a force. LBs are fast.

Yes Winston is fragile but with the right coach he could be dangerous.

This will be a fight.

All depends on CrabLegs' pregame speech.
