A question to those who are dissapointed so far?

ADW, this is not an average team in terms of talent. The talent is on the defense and offensive line.

The Bucs don't have a lot of talent on the defensive line.

Here's two reasons why the Saints win the division this year - QB, WR

I agree.  QB + WR  =  points.  

Here's two reasons why the Bucs WONT wint he Division this year -  QB, WR

Tell that to Michael Turner and Willie Parker?

How could we win 20-10 when we gave up 3 big plays for TD's?

You don't understand football.

But I'm really good at math.

Our offense can't keep up with our defense.......if it could we'd have a really good football team.

No, you do not understand it.  How many times do you need to be told that the difference in possession time was LESS than TWO minutes??  Don't say the D was on the field all day, because that comment is a crapola no matter how you slice it.  Wake up.

Have some more Haterade JC.

Why did Graham only get 10 carries?      Even a junior high kid knows, if the opposing QB is any good, you keep him off the field by pounding the ball.  The Bucs failed to execute EVERY pass that was more than 5 yards....   why is no one open?   or, can Garcia not see them over the line?  and the few times he does see them, the ball is poorly thrown.

we ran enough to win but we gave up big plays , enough of which for them to squeek out their win at home. i also theink they saw a rookie at guard and was going to give him looks. still, it was a game with bad calls, bad defensive plays and youth in the wrong spots.

they had a 3.5 point advantage and won by 4. we could have easily won the game despite all that. this is very early, we will get better and should take them next time.

ADW, this is not an average team in terms of talent. The talent is on the defense and offensive line. Gruden tried to win this game 38-35 instead of 20-10. The defense can't be on the field the whole game waiting for the offense to do something. The way this team is going to win is by running the ball, eating TOP and let the fast defense PLAY FAST. But they can't play fast the whole game if they're gonna be on the field that much. Gruden has crap at QB and WR and is acting like he has Manning, Wayne, Harrison, Gonzalez and Clark.

And Curt, Faine really did make a difference. He wasn't just blocking guys, he was embarrassing them. The running game has never looked that efficient. The only reason this team won't lead the league in rushing is because Gruden won't let them.

[Lamond]

Gruden didn't call one of those TO's. Garcia called 2 and the D called one.

Well, it just might be the long down and distances the O had because of stupid penalties. Did you even watch the game yesterday?

Yea like the 3rd and 2 when Gruden came out in shotgun
