Bucs on Offense:
I’m a believer in our offense. Some say it’s a streak of Fitzmagic, I think it’s just the product of nailed draft picks and the right free agents. Evans, OJ, Godwin and Desean are here to stay. With that being said I like our matchups on offense. Pitt doesn’t have an impact player in the secondary, and while I am worried about going up against a 3-4 front, I think Jensen’s experience in Baltimore will go a long way. I think Fitzmagic continues dealing, and Barber (who has ran effeictly in the 1st half all year) get going as well.
Bucs on Defense:
Pitt is tough as hell to stop. Ju Ju and Brown are the best 1-2 in the game imo. Connor has some play making ability. Here’s what I noticed about the Steelers vs Chiefs game however, the majority of big plays came from Ben hanging in the pocket for what seemed like ages. The Chiefs failed to pressure him. I like our pressure so far this year. We harassed Foles all game, and should have sacked a Brees 3 times. I think we have the guys who can “close the deal” that the Chiefs lack. I think we force some turnovers here. Connor will rip off a few big runs, but I like our match up against a big bruiser, as opposed to a more shifty Kamara type back.
Went conservative the past few weeks. Not anymore. Sipping some mad kool-aide laced with Fitzmagic.
Bucs win big:
41-28
TDs from Evans, Godwin, Howard, Brate, and Hump. Barber punches in his first of the year. Evans and Ryan Smith come up with picks. Bucs sack Big Ben 4 times.
