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? |

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

We never play well against them. |

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. |

Gurley had less than 10 carries against the Bucs. He is probably going to retire after this year. The Rams were long overdue to slam into a brick wall. It's going to get worse as time goes on. I think we beat the Bucs by grinding it out into another defensive slug fest. Their LBs frighten me much more than Winston does. |

Im more amazed how the Rams have stacked ass team on defense and still cannot stop anyone.

Their division was a joke last year. They got to beat up on 2 dumpster fire teams and the Seahawks practically gift-wrapped them a win in Seattle with Pete Carroll's time out on 4th down with the last drive. Russell Wilson gave them the other win in L.A. by not being able to throw an accurate pass down field on the final drive. Goff hasn't been the same since that Bears loss where he was thoroughly exposed, but it was OK cause they still had a bunch of trash teams in their schedule. The Pats literally ran the same gameplan the Bears did and they held them without a touchdown in the SB. The Pats also dropped 3 INTs and that game could've been a bloodbath if Brady wasn't 41 years old and looked it that night. They finally ran into another team that completely exposed Goff and McVay's offense. It's going to happen again, but it helps when you play in the NFC West. Everyone loves to whine and moan about the Pats in the AFC East, but the NFC West, NFC North and AFC West are pretty bad divisions too dominated by a single team. Kansas City has been benefiting from a trash division ever since the Broncos collapsed, but no one ever brings it up about them and all their home playoff losses. No one knows for sure yet if the Niners are for real. The Seahawks are good for 8 wins but I'll never trust that team with some of the mistakes Carroll makes. Arizona is a dumpster fire (LOL at the thought that Josh Rosen might end up being marginally better than Kyler Murray by the look of things so far). The NFC West could be bad again and that would help the Rams back into the playoffs. |

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