Chiefs 24, Bucs 13

Nasty stuff, Bucs fans.

Joe was expecting to casually enjoy cold beer and steaming nachos as the Bucs ran the ball down the Chiefs’ throat.

• Again the Bucs can’t put the ball in the end zone. A pitch to Michael Bennett on 3rd and short from the 5? Maybe Matt Bryant has pictures of Chucky pleasuring himself during a morning film session.
• K. C. had the worst run defense in the NFL entering the game, yet the Bucs aren’t opening any big holes.
• Sadly, Jeff Garcia looks like a washed up old guy in this half. Let’s hope he turns it around.
• Gruden needs to try more shots downfield. Broken record on that one.
• Where’s the defense?
• Ronde Barber has had more bad games than good this season.
• Props to Clifton Smith on his kick return touchdown.
• Chiefs are showing the Bucs what a vertical game looks like. 
• Get the feeling the Chiefs are going to have Thigpen run, himself, a lot in the second half. The kid can scramble and the Bucs look vulnerable to that
• Entering the bye week next week, if Garcia can’t look better in the 2nd half, Chucky is probably going to the start the Luke McCown era. Ugh.
