If you actually believed in this team, that loss Sunday was perhaps the most gut wrenching loss in the history of this team.    Just a terrible defeat.

Yeah maybe not 1, but definitely top 10 somewhere. The ticket impact is undeniable though.

I totally agree with you on this.  The next time people on this board whine and cry about attendance, national perception, or national hatred of the Bucs, I'm going to simply put a link to this game in the thread and "This is the reason".

You think this team sells out the next home game?

[jerseybucsfan]

The Bucs aren't a good home team and all four home losses were bad, games that could have been won. That will kill sales through at least miss 2013.

Only if the road team has a strong travelling fan base.

I don't understand How some think this one game is going to hurt attendance next year. It was a great atmosphere
and people talk and read newspapers and internet. This team is 4th in scoring we've never had this many weapons fix the damn defense and the fans will be there. Some of you are unbelievable.
Go Bucs.


Java believe me I be watched this team in the late 80's and early 90's and this is much much better
 
3 games we lost on the last play of the game
 Last year we were losing by 20 points a game.

Yes, they have improved, but people don't come to see improvements on a weekly basis, they come to see wins.

This game, for many, was considered to be an easy win. Funny how it sold out, right? Maybe Tampa fans aren't "bad," maybe they would rather see a bloodbath than a fair fight?

I get what you are saying though. There is deffinately talent. More than even gruden had to work with offensively. But we still aren't going to bring in the fair weather fans, which happen to be the only thing that will keep this team on tv, without defeating quality opponents in our own backyard. if there are little home game wins, as a fan, what is the point in showing up? People aren't going to be fans of failure.

This one stings very badly, in that once again you kinda-sorta earned their "trust" to deliver a win against a so-called inferior team, but blew it big time. Tampa, statistically had an advantage, they had home field advantage, they had their starting QB when the other team didn't... I mean, this was a huge letdown in a metric ton of ways.

That had nothing to do with it.   It sold out because of Eagles fans taking a winter vacation in Tampa and the fact that the 2002 super bowl team had a special day.

“The fans were unbelievable. I mean, you gotta giv’em credit. They were out here. At times I wasn’t sure who had more fans, us or them,” Eagles' Head Coach Andy Reid said about the Eagles' fans in  attendance at Raymond James Stadium Sunday.

[JavaRay]

you should have cheered harder Morgan.

[Morgan]

No more for me. Internet feeds and radio for blacked out games after the STL game.

It sold out because of Gruden.
