Both teams are 1-3, if the Bucs play like they did vs the Steelers, they have a chance. Need McCoy and M Johnson to continue to provide pass rush, and the safeties MUST play better and be physical, otherwise Brees is going to have a field day vs our secondary.
Also MUST get the run game going!




Bucs 31 Saints 27

The Saints big FA signing this offseason, S Jarius Byrd is placed on IR and out for the year.

Saints are a mess, and Bucs are coming off of a miracle victory.

I honestly have no idea what to expect today, but I would guess that the Saints rebound

This division might be hard pressed to have an 8-8 team this year.

The Bucs really shouldn't play Dane Fletcher at MLB, he is worse than Foster in pass coverage down the middle of the field. Jimmy Graham already has 2 big catches down the middle. He have may a career day vs us.


6-0 Saints in the 1st.

Bucs blow a 31-20 4th qtr lead and lose 37-31 in OT.

We'll likely have a top 5 pick in the next draft, they better draft Winston/Mariota.

Draft positioning is looking stronger and stronger......which means another crappy season ahead.

I really don't get why Dane Fletcher is getting the starting time at MLB, he is awful. With Foster out, our best LB's are David, Casillas and Lansanah. I know Casillas is more of a OLB, but he is a lot better player than Flether and should start at MLB while Foster is out. Our defense is getting exposed, because Fletcher is so bad and slow down the middle of the field in coverage.
