Cry, all the tears you guys need to...

 

W

Nobody’s crying. 

Everyone’s stoked about a win on the road against a divisional opponent who swept us last year. And, without studs like Wirfs and Godwin. 

Just noting observations. Nothing more. Nothing less. 

 

Fair

 

By the way, you never mentioned it. 

I'm assuming you were talking that shit to the ringless fan base, right?

Lol. 

 

All game.  I was in a largely buc's seciton but there was a group of dirty bird's fans who just wouldn't let up.  Mostly good fun type shizz but, it was fun to see the air come out of that balloon with #2's catch.  Thank God we won.

Bumping this because there was some concerns about the Bucs run play under Grizz.  Some real concerns, some fake, but now there is an actual comparison.

 

The Rams running attack put up 70 yards. The Bucs running attack - with a makeshift line and an injury to our RT - put up 130+

 

Its possible the Rams are just bad on the ground, but they put up almost 150 the next week

two games so tiny sample but Bucs 18th offense and 13th defense (scoring).  And big drop off in 1st quarter scoring from #1 to #19

We had a 1st down running success rate of 25% for the Atlanta game. 

Almost half of those were QB scrambles. 

 Where did you get that 25% stat from?  Scrambles are pass plays that breakdown. 

Going off the game log, the Bucs had a 46% first down run success rate on designed runs and that is playing with a make shift line.

And, its actually a little better than the stat suggests (not that it was great) because 2 of the runs are 3 yard runs (ie just short of the 4 yard threshold) and several of them are big runs (6 yards). 

For example, in the 4th drive Tucker runs for 7 on 1st down but there is a "no play" penalty on the Falcons so we go back to 1st and 5 and run it again and this time Irving runs for 11. The next 1st down is a pass, but the next one is White for 11 yards, followed up by that is White for 3 (so a failed run).

 

That is running success, not failure

 

 

 

Taking out the 4th qtr because of the way it played out, the Bucs had a 42% first down running success rate.  They were also roughly 50/05 run pass thru 3rd

 

makeshift line, very good defense
