So.. Can we beat Denver??

[The Anti-Java]

Every game this year just about, the Broncos have started slow.  So if the Bucs can jump out to an early lead, it could get interesting at the end.

[Detrimental]

They couldn't stop Jamaal Charles last week so Martin might give them problems Sunday. The Chiefs have a very good offensive line though so I wouldn't assume Martin having a good game.

[BucsFTW]

Only chance the Buc have is if Manning were to get dinged up a bit...  Nothing serious, but some "sore ribs" for a week or two wouldn't make me feel too bad at all.

Let me see Biggers light him up on a blind-side blitz, like Matty-boy last week.  Except this time - go for the strip AND his exposed rib cage with the shoulder pad...!

That, or a huge dose of us running for about 225+ combined yards, and we keep Manning on the sideline.

Either way, it's going to take more than a few 3-and-outs to win this one, so...

I don't see us in at at all.  Love to be wrong, but...

IF........... We somehow DO snatch victory from the jaws of defeat...  I agree with whomever said "We'd make the playoffs..."

[Bschucher]

YES... that is all.

[Al Bundy]

Can we? Maybe... will we? Not a chance.

[NotDeadYet]

    Shut down their run game and don't turn the ball over, and we got a shot. Blitzing requires perfect timing; too often our blitzes are badly timed, so easily picked up. Same with stunts.

NONSENSE!

There is always A chance.

[acacius]

*Can* we?  Yes.  Will we?  Situation uncertain, ask again later.

Lost their starting RB. They have no running game and certainly not against the Bucs run D.

I'm not actually this pessimistic, but this is the obvious reponse:

[Buc on the Move]

I plan on watching, so yeas there is a chance.

Yes we can, yes we can, yes we can, yes we can...I can't hear you...yes we can, yes we can, yes we can.

The is one way to beat Denver.

Is that for Doug "Truckin Kuechly" Martin or Dan "The (Back up for the rest of his career) Man"

[Jack Rabbit Slim]

Time for Schiano to have a chat with Belichick. He always seemed to have Manning's number. BTW, I'm kind of concerned about the cold weather for the game. Bucs don't fare well in such games, generally.

I'm more worried about the altitude change more than the cold, they are going to be short-winded very quickly in CO.

[FreeHawk]

I think we will definitely have to ground and pound them. The loss of Nicks and Joseph is starting to show itself more and more IMO, but I felt like Sullivan and Schiano did not dedicate themselves to the run enough yesterday and it might have cost us.
