  7. ATrain Says:

    Hahha

  8. unbelievable Says:

    All I have to say is f@ck directv. F@ck them.

    Not only do they up the price of their package every single year, but now they have disabled the ability to use an HDMI cable.

    So they expect me to pay over $300 to watch games from my phone screen? Are you kidding me?????

    What BS.

    I’d rather use an illegal stream. They don’t deserve my money

  9. Buc believer Says:

    GMC penalty!!! How about that you GMC apologists!

  10. Duthsty Rhothdes Says:

    hahaha drew brees has no time to throw and KWON please w that top 100 talk

  11. ATrain Says:

    Kwon looks a little off

    Slow

    McCoy looks awesome

  12. MadMax Says:

    I just hope we keep the loss under 20.

  13. donuts Says:

    Kwon looks like he spent no time this off-season working on tackling angle.

  14. Scotty in Fat Antonio Says:

    OMG

  15. LakeLand Says:

    Why in the hell did Dirk Koetter deferred the kickoff?

  16. Lando Says:

    Kwon is struggling

  17. MadMax Says:

    Kamara….man we missed on him….

  18. ElioT Says:

    Here we go.

    Differ this!

  19. Sweeptheleg Says:

    Lmao.

    You people are idiots that thought the Bucs had even the slightest of chances in this game.

  20. Matts17 Says:

    Sadly predictable start.

  21. Walter Says:

    See y’all next year.

  22. theodore Says:

    Fire Mike Smith, please.

  23. Bird Says:

    Dude kwon again.

    Does he not want to tackle anyone. He looks slow out there.
    What a joke.

    We are gonna pay him 10 per

  24. BobbyBucs Says:

    Kwon needs to wake up

  25. ATrain Says:

    Ridiculous

    FIRE MIKE SMITH NOW

    this is the NFL our Defense is SOFT

  26. Scott O'DONNELL Says:

    Great start Bucs!

  27. FreeTheSecretWeapon Says:

    Fluke

  28. Issaic haggins Says:

    Hopefully Koetter doesn’t limit his play calling/ game management ( due to running game ) like was done the year last year . Kwon has a missed tackle and McCoy offsides is a repeat of last year 2 plays in . Hope it stops there !!!

  29. Rick Says:

    Like butter…

  30. Easy Says:

    LOL Kwon getting sheeeettt all over him again. Average MLB at best

  31. BucThis Says:

    Defense shouldn’t of been out in the strip club last night. Told y’all.

  32. donuts Says:

    Its gonna be a long season if this first DEF series is any indication. Kwon looks lost.

  33. tnew Says:

    Why people are so worried about resigning Kwon… I’ll never know.

  34. SchwiftyBuc Says:

    Absolutely nothing has changed. This defense will be just as garbage this year as they were last year.

  35. ColonelAngus Says:

    We gave up a TD on the first drive of the first game of the season. All is lost

  36. Scotty in Fat Antonio Says:

    Anyone for a 3 and out?

  37. Defense Rules Says:

    Lando, Kwon is doing more than struggling … he looked terrible on every play on that drive. LVD didn’t look much better. DLine held their own it looked like, but zero pressure on Brees. Can’t blame the Secondary for that TD … it was all on the DLine & LBs.

  38. Roadwarrior Says:

    Like a hot knife through butter

  39. Destinjohnny Says:

    I predictited 28-17 Nola
    Can I adjust ?
    35-17

  40. Rod Munch Says:

    That Saints male cheerleader is going to do a lot of prancing today.

  41. Chris in WA Says:

    I’m paying Kwon the last out of Ali, Donovan, and Kwon.

    I like the passion but jeez man.

  42. University of Seffner Says:

    Our defense looks stuck in 2017.

  43. Season Is Over Says:

    Impressive defensive stand. Is it still 2017?

  44. EA Says:

    Ahahah wow what a drive by saints, we are pathetic.

  45. Iamabuc Says:

    Kwon is slow af…

  46. TheBucsAnthem Says:

    Defense sucking azz

  47. firethecannons Says:

    It is this that will almost assuredly lead to a new coach and new players–Ryan Smith is playing–no excuse for this–blame on Licht, Koetter, Mike Smith–no excuse–we deserve to lose

  48. ATrain Says:

    Bucs Players = Check collectors

    McCoy is the biggest one

    You McCoy Lovers where was he on that series pushing him around like a grocery cart

  49. FreeTheSecretWeapon Says:

    Never thought it would be a shut out

  50. Pewterplank Says:

    I have seen this before…

  51. Walter Says:

    48-13

  52. Tampa Bay Tailgater Says:

    They’ll course correct. That is the sloppiest the bucs will look. Only better and tighter from here. Onward and upward! Let’s Fn Go!!!

  53. BucEmUp Says:

    HEY REALIST???? TELL ME OLEASE WHAT GOOD IT DOES HAVING THE CORNER PLAYING 12 YARDS BACK WHEN THE HALL OF FAME QB ONLY NEEDS TO THROW FOR 7 YARDS TO GET A FIRST DOWN? TELL ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    WE NEED NEW OWNERS!!!! THE GLAZIERS OBVIOUSLY D ONT GIVE A SHLT ABOUT WINNING GAMES AND NEITHER DOES DIRK KOETTER

  54. jmarkbuc Says:

    Kwon

    WTF? 2 missed tackles and Kamara buried you…

  55. MadMax Says:

    YESSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  56. ATrain Says:

    A QB that can hit DJax

  57. donuts Says:

    DJAX!

  58. Bird Says:

    Wwwwwooiooooooo

  59. FreeTheSecretWeapon Says:

    Eat it!!!!

  60. garbs65 Says:

    Holy crap. The defense looked totally lost. If we go three and out we are done!

  61. AmericasEnabler Says:

    Djax skinny post FUK yeah Kooter!

  62. Ftmyersbuc Says:

    Yes dear good YES

  63. ATrain Says:

    Hope Winston is taking notes

  64. FreeTheSecretWeapon Says:

    Lets glGO DEFENCE!!!!

  65. Rick Says:

    I now have a mess in my crotch! So good to see!!

  66. lurker Says:

    boom baby

  67. Sweeptheleg Says:

    Take notes Winston.

  68. BucsBandit Says:

    OH MY!!!

  69. Dooshlarue Says:

    That’s how it’s done JW and Dirk.

  70. Bird Says:

    Wide open

    Who is calling plays. Monken calling

    What a perfect pass

  71. scholty Says:

    Is that what we call an explosive play???!!!!!!!

  72. donuts Says:

    DJAX! Great separation.

  73. ColonelAngus Says:

    Season back on! Super Bowl Champs!

  74. Bobby B Says:

    Well I guess that kills the 3 and out Debbie Downers lol

  75. AmericasEnabler Says:

    hopefully this gets our defense pumped.That first drive was atrocious.

  76. Godeep66 Says:

    Will Grier is well on his way

  77. unbelievable Says:

    Alright Fitz!

  78. Leebucfan Says:

    Lets go baby!!!!!!

  79. Chris in WA Says:

    Well be prepared to watch the highest scoring game of the year.

    Go D-JAX!!!!!

  80. Daddylonglegs78 Says:

    Monken calling plays….OK!!!!!!

  81. BuccoDav Says:

    So… that’s what that looks like… Woohoo!

  82. Leebucfan Says:

    Lets go baby!!!!!! Lets go bucs!!!!

  83. tnew Says:

    Why you put DJax in the slot.

  84. Duthsty Rhothdes Says:

    very good throw havent seen that

  85. TheBucsAnthem Says:

    JAMEIS WOULD’VE NEVER BEEN ABLE to see that play

  86. BucsBandit Says:

    LET’S GO!!!!!!

    Enough of you negative Nancy’s!

    GO BUCS GO!

  87. BucThis Says:

    MONKEN CALLING PLAYS

  88. Alvin Scissors Harper Says:

    We’ve all been waiting for that play for a year. Nice DJax and Fitz! Time to see this revamped defensive line put a little pressure on Brees.

  89. Bird Says:

    Can we get defense going. That better jack them up.

    This offense is best we have ever had

  90. King C Says:

    Whoa
    that wasn’t even that good a throw it’s just that Desean had em beat so bad

  91. Don Perry Says:

    Its gonna be a shootout!

  92. theodore Says:

    Monken calling plays for the players he has.

  93. Scotty in Fat Antonio Says:

    Myers just stated Monken is calling plays

  94. ManzielMadness Says:

    Lol maybe we do want to make this a shoot out… should be an interesting game to say the least

  95. Bucco14 Says:

    Monken calling plays. Good choice!

  96. King C Says:

    Monken calling plays is the best news I’ve heard all week

  97. Chris in WA Says:

    You know Koetter isn’t calling plays because we scored on our opening drive.

  98. Defense Rules Says:

    Fitz stayed cool as a cucumber on that whole series. DJax looked awesome on that catch.

  99. Easy Says:

    Monken is fired up!!

  100. Bird Says:

    Monken fired up

  101. Sweeptheleg Says:

    Great one play and now he’s hurt

    Figures

  102. Rod Munch Says:

    I knew it was Monken calling plays as soon as I saw that QB sneak. Stupid Dirk has never called a QB sneak despite Jameis being excellent at it, so the second that happened I knew things had changed.

    Well if we score 77 today I think we can pull this out!

  103. Tampa Bay Tailgater Says:

    I guess saints season is over too! You guys…I can only imagine you panic folk when you hit ared light you thought you were going to make. Put on endless love and contenplate suicide?

    RELAX

  104. Bird Says:

    JPP limped off

  105. TampaTown Says:

    Hope DeSean’s not hurt but Godwin can step in

  106. Duthsty Rhothdes Says:

    great d front and kwon kamara gonna have 200 yds & picking up gillislee is whatvwinning teams do….. friggin hargreaves

  107. Sweeptheleg Says:

    This defense is pathetic. Now jpp limping off.

    SOFT

  108. Godeep66 Says:

    JBoo will soon be JWho.

  109. Godeep66 Says:

    JPP is picking up a check. Dudududududuh

  110. Rod Munch Says:

    Here’s all the low IQ dopes who were saying D-Jax had to be cut?

  111. Scotty in Fat Antonio Says:

    Hold them to 6 here.

  112. Season Is Over Says:

    Mike Smith may have put together one of the worst defenses in NFL history. They don’t excel at any phase whatsoever. You have to go out of your way to do that.

  113. Scotty in Fat Antonio Says:

    JPP is hurt AND out

  114. Chris in WA Says:

    Good lord did you see that off coverage?

    5 yards behind the first down marker!!!

  115. TheBucsAnthem Says:

    Wtf is the defense? !?!

  116. THETRUTH Says:

    Press coverage and it works. Hello smith

  117. Sweeptheleg Says:

    Conte can’t even keep up with a TE. Lmao

  118. Rod Munch Says:

    Conte can’t keep up with a 38-year old TE….

  119. Ftmyersbuc Says:

    This defense is beyond bad

  120. Duthsty Rhothdes Says:

    2-14 i was at 5-11 but licht has ZERO clue on building a winning team

  121. ATrain Says:

    F I R E

    MIKE SMITH

    N O W

  122. Bird Says:

    Pathetic

    Mike smith is a joke

  123. Mike Evans Goat Says:

    Nassib looks like a slight upgrade.

  124. AmericasEnabler Says:

    Kwon with a phenomenal run stop.Keep it up #58!!!

  125. aj Says:

    no curry, no jpp, no beau allen. wtf?

    nassib, gholston and jerrel worthy are playing?

  126. Godeep66 Says:

    Call me a prophet Joe. JPP and DJax hurt. I bet those check still clear. Hah.

  127. FreeTheSecretWeapon Says:

    Script is over for the Saints…

    Time for a turnover!!!

  128. donuts Says:

    Kwon trying to fix his film on that tackle

  129. Season Is Over Says:

    Haha. Kwon Alexander has to talk crap after making a normal tackle that runs right into him. I can’t wait for the Hargreaves airplane after a terrible pass by Brees.

  130. ATrain Says:

    JPP has gone Soft

    Hey play some collected a check all good

    Wonder who said that to him

  131. Mike Evans Goat Says:

    JPP still being out is worrying

  132. Easy Says:

    Great stop on defense!

  133. Rod Munch Says:

    Holy Jesus… are they really holding them to a FG here?!? Wow, major victory! If the Bucs can just get a TD on every offensive series from here out they might be able to win this game!

  134. Godeep66 Says:

    They probably drew stares first to see who would fake the injury first. Well, Grimes pulled the “early straw”

  135. Anonymous Says:

    Sloppy tackling so far/ hopefully the first game jitters get worked out by the second half

  136. Alvin Scissors Harper Says:

    Pretty decent coverage by the rook, Carlton Davis.

  137. unbelievable Says:

    Carlton Davis needs to learn how to tackle and shed blocks.

    So do all our linebackers

  138. TheBucsAnthem Says:

    Soooo Nassib is playing and has only been here a week

    But yet ROJO who’s been here for like 6 months is inactive

    ROJO is bust!!!!

  139. Bird Says:

    Have they said anything on JPP

    I saw gholston and worthy in on same play. Ouch

  140. Easy Says:

    Let’s get Barber pounding the rock now

  141. AmericasEnabler Says:

    Kwon stepping up… I’m his biggest hater but that was a pretty decent series by him.

  142. Defense Rules Says:

    Defense looked much better on that drive. Kwon really picked up his play. Delayed blitzes probably won’t work against Brees he gets the ball out so fast. Secondary coverage looks quite good IMO.

  143. unbelievable Says:

    Why does our special teams even line up on FGs?

    They don’t even attempt to black the kick. Look how many guys are just standing around.

    It’s pathetic

  144. ATrain Says:

    BUC Stops where?

    At the bank to pick up check

    Cant wait to hear McCoy after this one

    We didn’t play well need to step it up
    But fans need to be there for us pay 150 a seat so I get my check

  145. TheBucsAnthem Says:

    McCoy never steps up

  146. FreeTheSecretWeapon Says:

    Time to show out Payton…. PAYTON BARBER!!!

  147. Mike Johnson Says:

    Again Boyz and Girls..What have we learned so far? Our defense is still the problem and our D Coordinator is sitting his fat A..Up in the pressbox. SOB’S (same ole Bucs)

  148. AmericasEnabler Says:

    @Free there you go HAHAHA

  149. MadMax Says:

    GO PEYTON!!!!!

  150. Rod Munch Says:

    Kamara is a special talent with special quickness, he’s basically a WR out there, asking a LB to cover him one on one in pass coverage is a recipe for disaster. You have to gameplan for that, and clearly Mike Smith did not.

  151. Bird Says:

    Yah boy

  152. Buccaneer Bonzai Says:

    Just checking in. I expected the defense to start slow with no tackling in camps. Doing better than expected.

    Kwon is on fire!

  153. Rod Munch Says:

    Did Smith start today at LT? Great news.

  154. AmericasEnabler Says:

    Barber running foools!!!

  155. TheBucsAnthem Says:

    Barber looks good

  156. MadMax Says:

    Peyton is punishing!

  157. Mike Evans Goat Says:

    DAYYYUMMMM!!!! Let’s go BARBER!!!

  158. unbelievable Says:

    LOL at the fools who keep doubting Barber

  159. Godeep66 Says:

    Straws

  160. donuts Says:

    Jensen is bringing a tough vibe up front. Good to see. We just need to get our CB closer than 10 yards from WR on coverage.

    Godwin!

  161. Mike Evans Goat Says:

    That was a NASTY CATCH!!!

  162. MadMax Says:

    Damn what a catch GODWIN!!!!!!!!!

  163. Rod Munch Says:

    What a great catch by Godwin. Wow.

  164. ATrain Says:

    Godwin will be the best WR by the end of season

  165. Bird Says:

    What a catch

  166. MadMax Says:

    Oh Jit, that Offense is humming!

  167. FreeTheSecretWeapon Says:

    WOW!!!

  168. ATrain Says:

    FITZ

  169. Mike Evans Goat Says:

    LETS GOOOOOO

  170. MadMax Says:

    QB sneak? Nice!

  171. donuts Says:

    Fitzmagic!!

  172. AmericasEnabler Says:

    FUK YEA!!!! Love this Mookin offense.

  173. Bird Says:

    Suck it haters.

    All you babies

  174. TheBucsAnthem Says:

    YEAHHHHHHH

    OLD man

  175. Rod Munch Says:

    YOU MOTHER F-ER FITZ, STEALING A TD FROM BARBER!?!?

    Damnit, I have a lot of Barber in fantasy.

  176. Mike Evans Goat Says:

    Williams got TRUCKED!!!!

  177. AmericasEnabler Says:

    Lattimore got straight owned that series sooo good hahahah OVERHYPED!

  178. MadMax Says:

    Keep calling those plays Monken!

  179. Alvin Scissors Harper Says:

    Wow, without Koetter calling the plays, we may really have a chance. We all know this team has some weapons at the skill positions and we’re actually showing it.

  180. Bucnut2 Says:

    Fitz is soo much better than Winston!!

  181. Bird Says:

    You cannot stop this offense.

  182. TheBucsAnthem Says:

    JAMEIS SUCKS

  183. Sweeptheleg Says:

    Great drive Bucs.

    That was picture perfect.

    Beautiful catch Godwin.

    Please make me eat crow

  184. jmarkbuc Says:

    Fitz with the cajones…nice!

  185. lurker Says:

    love this offense!

    so nice

  186. Duthsty Rhothdes Says:

    im sorry but fitzee looks in this quarter the best bucs qb since brad johnson

  187. Dooshlarue Says:

    Loving the calls and pace!

  188. jmarkbuc Says:

    Yep This ain’t DK calling plays.

  189. Dirty Bucs Says:

    When it comes to the Bucs, I don’t give a damn about fantasy. Just win, Baby! Let’s goooooooooooo!

  190. AmericasEnabler Says:

    Mike Evans Goat Says:
    September 9th, 2018 at 1:31 pm
    Williams got TRUCKED!!!!

    ^^^fuk yeah he did. Brought tears to my eyes haha

  191. unbelievable Says:

    Fitz strikes again!

  192. King C Says:

    think how many survivor pools would get ruined by a bucs win.

  193. unbelievable Says:

    This is why Monken is calling plays Joe.

  194. Rod Munch Says:

    You know what the Bucs didn’t do on that series? Run it up the gut into 11 men on first and 10.

  195. Buc believer Says:

    Come on Smith earn that game check!!

  196. QUE5 Says:

    We got ourselves a O. Coordinator!

  197. Jbeachbuc Says:

    What’s up FITZ!!!!

  198. Architek Says:

    Defense is trash and it’s not personnel.

  199. lurker Says:

    amazing!
    7 kids born in 7 different cities. life of an nfl vagabond.

  200. donuts Says:

    We are coming out fast this game. We will have a chance at a W!

  201. TheBucsAnthem Says:

    Trade Jameis

  202. RustyRhino Says:

    Yes!

  203. TheBucsAnthem Says:

    Our defense is trash

  204. ATrain Says:

    We still havent seen O.J. or Brate

    The Offense could be nasty

    Defense Sucks we know the prob last year

    Fire Mike and tell him to take Mr Softie with him

  205. Scotty in Fat Antonio Says:

    Can Monken call Defense too? They sit close to each other don’t they?

  206. DILLIGAF Says:

    Love that we stuck with Monk calling the plays from the booth.

  207. Doctor Stroud Says:

    #Fitzweapons!

  208. Alaskabuc Says:

    LOVE IT!! Fitz laying the wood! Go Bucs!!

  209. Rod Munch Says:

    Watching Red Zone and watching Mariota in the Dolphins red zone and LOL!

  210. FreeTheSecretWeapon Says:

    Time for that turnover…

    Brezzes gonna look deep… Holds the ball to long…

    Sack fumble GMC!!!

    KWON returns it for a TD!!!

    BOOM BOOM BOOM… Yeah Baby!!!

  211. Destinjohnny Says:

    Fitz magic!

  212. Bird Says:

    Cmon defense

  213. King C Says:

    @Atrain I was thinking the same thing about the TEs

  214. Buccaneer Bonzai Says:

    Props to a few:

    Fitz looking great
    Barber looking great
    Koetter actually gave up playcalling
    Davis stopping a TD by doing his job
    Kwon is a beast

  215. lurker Says:

    wish we had a new defensive playcaller….or new defense.

  216. Jay Says:

    Offense surprising so far
    D not looking as good

  217. Sweeptheleg Says:

    My god those CB cushions

  218. AmericasEnabler Says:

    now brees needs to hit the turf

  219. Bird Says:

    JPP back

  220. Doctor Stroud Says:

    I’m okay with a shoot out as long as the Bucs offense has the ball last.

  221. Scotty in Fat Antonio Says:

    What happened to our kicker’s leg strength. Was he out with the defense last night at the strip clubs?

  222. Buccaneer Bonzai Says:

    Wow. I thought we had brees there

  223. unbelievable Says:

    VH3 playing 8 yards of the receiver again, and whadayaknow? Easy completion in front of him for 9 yards.

  224. Destinjohnny Says:

    Davis got picked on that play

  225. Jay Says:

    Need a new d play caller

  226. TheBucsAnthem Says:

    Carl nassib is playing

    But ROJO isn’t

    ROJO IS A Bust

  227. King C Says:

    Oh yeah this gonna be a shootout

  228. TheBucsAnthem Says:

    Same old 5 yrds defense

  229. Jeagan1999 Says:

    Keep up the offensive pressure! We can beat these guys!

  230. Matts17 Says:

    Same garbage D from last year. Non existent pass rush with receivers running wide open in the middle of the field.

    How in the world is Mike Smith still employed??

  231. Buccaneer Bonzai Says:

    I’m bailing on the site for now. Sprained wrist on my hunt and peck hand. Gonna ice up.

    GO BUCS!!!!

  232. Defense Rules Says:

    Me too Bonzai. But he gets the ball out so fast that blitzing him is really dangerous. He took advantage that time on that throw to Thomas. And Scotty, I’m wondering too why those kickoffs are so shallow.

  233. Alvin Scissors Harper Says:

    Nice to see us still in this game…after 1 quarter.

  234. Duthsty Rhothdes Says:

    helluva pass rush

  235. Mike Evans Goat Says:

    This defense is str8 poop

  236. Buc believer Says:

    Davis got toasted!

  237. Dirty Bucs Says:

    We need to get Brees dirty.

    He’s picking on Davis every play. Sigh

  238. donuts Says:

    Ummmm…I wrote in the comments this week 3 or 4 times…..”take the over” this week.

  239. lurker Says:

    crazy defense

  240. Rick Says:

    Worst defense I’ve ever seen.

  241. FreeTheSecretWeapon Says:

    Lucky… Davis picks that off next time!!!

  242. ATrain Says:

    million dollar grocery cart

  243. TheBucsAnthem Says:

    Defense sucking azz …

  244. Easy Says:

    Baptism by fire rookie. Don’t hang your head get back on the next series and play your a$$ off!!

  245. The Real Drew Says:

    Please fire Mike Smith

  246. Destinjohnny Says:

    I still Believe in Davis

  247. Dooshlarue Says:

    Where the hell are Buckner’s Boys?
    Carlton Davis is gonna be alright.

  248. Bird Says:

    Davis getting abused. But he needs to take some lumps early on. Hope he can learn from this.

  249. lurker Says:

    great throw by brees, though

  250. mark2001 Says:

    Does the Defense know that it OK to start playing now?

  251. EA Says:

    Our pass rush is paying off

  252. Defense Rules Says:

    Davis was well within 5 yards of his receiver at the line, yet he got beaten for the TD. Ya, Mike Smith sure is a dope. His fault for having CBs play so far off.

  253. Rod Munch Says:

    This is why you don’t draft rookies in the 2nd round and think that fixes your secondary issues. They might be great, but game one, on the road, against a 1st ballot HOFer, that’s a bit much. Big issue on that play was that a full blitz was sent and got exactly zero pressure.

  254. Duthsty Rhothdes Says:

    GLad licht upgraded safety conte was nowhere

  255. unbelievable Says:

    wow they actually tried to block a kick

  256. TheBucsAnthem Says:

    Man

    Our pass rush is so awesome

  257. Buc Neckid Says:

    No Pass Rush Again This Year.
    Brees has not been touched yet

  258. R.O. Says:

    Why do we continuously give receivers free releases off the line.

  259. theodore Says:

    If Mike Smith had shame, he’d leave on his own.

  260. aj Says:

    love jensen. Always near the ball, always clearing the pile. He doesn’t stop.

  261. TheBucsAnthem Says:

    Man

    Our pass rush is so awesome. …

  262. Bird Says:

    This offense is filthy

  263. tnew Says:

    Liking Jensen, Marpet and Smith

  264. Rod Munch Says:

    I don’t get, we just had two 1st and 10s and we didn’t run it up the gut… Dirk must be going nuts watching this. You always run it up the gut on 1st and 10 in the 1st half. ALWAYS!!!!

  265. Moreon Says:

    Looks like both defense didn’t come to play

  266. THETRUTH Says:

    Cut Goodwin can’t hold the ball!!!! Haha Bucs fanatic reaction

  267. AmericasEnabler Says:

    WHAT A WIN OJ !!!

  268. Bird Says:

    They are so deep at receiver and tight end

  269. Alvin Scissors Harper Says:

    At least we’re gonna be fun to watch this year. This offense is firing on all cylinders.

  270. Moreon Says:

    Looks like both defense didn’t come

  271. Bucnut2 Says:

    Fitz>winston

  272. theodore Says:

    All these weapons and I forgot about OJ.

  273. ATrain Says:

    JPP in the game so where is McCoy can’t double both of them

  274. Eric Reyes Says:

    Simply the best offense I’ve seen in 8 years up to this point.

  275. Bird Says:

    Bs

  276. Filippo Rouse Says:

    I agree Eric

  277. rrsrq Says:

    So if you holding hump and he pushes you off, it’s offsetting

  278. Mike Evans Goat Says:

    That’s a really bad call

  279. Dirty Bucs Says:

    That is NOT pass interference on Brate. Give me a break.

  280. Bird Says:

    Terrible call

  281. Rod Munch Says:

    That wasn’t f’n offensive PI. F’n stupid union slob refs.

  282. EA Says:

    Bs call

  283. rrsrq Says:

    Ridiculous, Vegas put a call in saying don’t let the Bucs get a TD

  284. Buc Neckid Says:

    New Orleans is Looking Beatable.

  285. lurker Says:

    wow, bad call

  286. Easy Says:

    Refs takin over the game now.

  287. Bucnut2 Says:

    Why owe we EVER go back to Winston????

  288. unbelievable Says:

    that is such an awful call

    F the refs, as usual

  289. Bucnut2 Says:

    would

  290. Alvin Scissors Harper Says:

    Nice to feel like we can make a routine FG. It’s been awhile!

  291. Bird Says:

    How good is this offense. Only thing that can stop them are the refs.

  292. Juju Says:

    Does anyone still hold their breath when the Bucs kick a field goal? I do

  293. scholty Says:

    So, the Zebra’s are in full effect now. NFL – the Saint fans and bookies are thanking you.

  294. Defense Rules Says:

    Houston, we have found a kicker.

  295. Ftmyersbuc Says:

    BS PI call

  296. ATrain Says:

    WOW

    Not even the McCoy Lovers will defend him today

  297. Bird Says:

    We need a damn pass rush

  298. Buc Neckid Says:

    See if Brees gets touched this time

  299. Rod Munch Says:

    Welp, can the Bucs defense hold them to a FG? Probably not. Lets hope the timing works out to where the Bucs get the last score of the half, then they open the 2nd with the ball.

    I’m guessing final score is 70-63, Saints.

  300. University of Seffner Says:

    All offense no defense. Can’t win without at least and average defense.

  301. AmericasEnabler Says:

    Need turnover right now!

  302. Ftmyersbuc Says:

    Alright let’s go defense I wanted a punt

  303. rrsrq Says:

    If this game is a 3-4 point game we will look at that last series

  304. Capt. Blighe Says:

    Bet the Over

  305. Mike Evans Goat Says:

    Does the O look good because fitz is better or is it that Monken actually knows how to call an offense?
    I am in no way saying fitz keeps the job week 4

  306. Rod Munch Says:

    ATrain – Be less boring.

  307. ATrain Says:

    Bree’s hates to be rushed

  308. TheBucsAnthem Says:

    September 9th, 2018 at 1:44 pm

  314. MadMax Says:

  315. Dooshlarue Says:

    Finally some pressure

  316. Bird Says:

    yah boy.

  317. donuts Says:

    What was that called again? Its been a while since Ive seen one.

  318. Walkergodeep Says:

    We got a sack

  319. Dirty Bucs Says:

    Oh we got a pass rush!

  320. Rod Munch Says:

    HOLY JESUS, A BLITZ THAT WORKED!?!

    Amazing!!!

    God is punishing them for the male cheerleader.

  321. Biggun Says:

    Now we’re having to play again the refs… they got to watch that spread

  322. MadMax Says:

    alright, djax returning punts? No!

  323. Sweeptheleg Says:

    Nice

  324. rrsrq Says:

    A 3 and out with a sack. That’s what Ryan Smith does, he makes the tackle

  325. Bird Says:

    We are in this game.

    Offense is humming

  326. Ftmyersbuc Says:

    Hell pass rush

  327. Defense Rules Says:

    Obviously Bucs DLine was just feeling them out in the 1st qtr. THAT’S what a pass rush looks like. Great sack.

  328. WyomingBucsFan Says:

    So he has a banged up shoulder and you trot him out for a punt return???

  329. Ftmyersbuc Says:

    I’ll give Ryan Smith that, he’s a very good tackler.

  330. Anonymous Says:

    Keep pounding Peyton to set up the play action

  331. Tampa Bay Tailgater Says:

    Sack lunch nom nom nom nom nom nom!

  332. lurker Says:

    ok.
    props to the defense when deserved.

  333. ATrain Says:

    Rod

    Please no defense for your boy

    So attack that’s what children do

    Curry sack McCoy pushed around

    Wait your right it is boring to see the same million dollar ice cream cone

  334. THETRUTH Says:

    DAVIs our , body language was bad. Gotta realize he is going against one of the best

  335. Rod Munch Says:

    Well that was an all out blitz, you’d hope you’d get pressure when you send everyone…. Still, better than not getting pressure, and Curry got Brees by the shoelace, and that was enough.

    Lets see if Monken stays aggressive or goes into the Dirk shell.

  336. Iamabuc Says:

    Defense came alive!

  337. Buc Neckid Says:

    Time to get the Running game going…

  338. Bird Says:

    Filthy

  339. Rod Munch Says:

    See Dirk, you CAN run it up the middle IF you run different plays – like you mix it up! Just don’t call the same play in the same situation for 32 straight weeks and wonder why it doesn’t work.

  340. Rod Munch Says:

    Preseason MVP Hump with the big drop.

  341. ATrain Says:

    Dang we hav a lot of weapons

  342. Ftmyersbuc Says:

    It’s official we now have black Gronk oj80

  343. Bird Says:

  346. Trench War Says:

  347. ATrain Says:

  348. Jbeachbuc Says:

    Shout out to the OL

  349. Buc Neckid Says:

    Talk it up Moose…
    The BUCS Offense is just Good

  350. King C Says:

  352. TheShaz Says:

  358. TheShaz Says:

    Winning cures everything

    But they still gotta win it

  359. Alvin Scissors Harper Says:

    Is this Fitzpatrick or Joe Montana in his prime?

  360. Bird Says:

    Is benenoch hurt

    Or just benched ?

  361. Bucnut2 Says:

    Fitz is killing it!!!

  362. Buc Neckid Says:

  363. BucsFanSince89 Says:

    Is Monken play calling??

  364. FR Says:

    Veteran makes vet move u hear that Winston

  365. MadMax Says:

  366. Buc Neckid Says:

    This is a GOOD Offense

  367. TheShaz Says:

    Didnt see what he wanted.

    And got some yards out of it

  368. donuts Says:

    Fitzmagic with the on a rope pass.

  369. Bird Says:

    What a throw. I mean Fitz on fire. Godwin a pimp

  370. BuccoDav Says:

    Holy Moly!

  371. Dirty Bucs Says:

    Godwin is soooooo good!!!!

  372. lurker Says:

    quiet

  373. Ftmyersbuc Says:

    Lol super dome dead silent

  374. Mike Evans Goat Says:

    Godwin is a star in the making

  375. TheShaz Says:

    No offsides on that?

    We got lucky

    TD!

  376. Buc believer Says:

    WOW!!!

  377. Buc Neckid Says:

  384. Couch Fan Says:

    Offense looks good. If we can just get a little bit of help from the defense….

  385. rrsrq Says:

    😮 all the haters can jump off, cause we have an O

  386. Sweeptheleg Says:

    24 points in the first half. Wow oh wow.

    Monken is far better than dirk

  387. AmericasEnabler Says:

    lurker Says:
    September 9th, 2018 at 2:07 pm
    quiet

    ^^^lol chirp chirp chirp

    If you listen close you can hear Joe fapping after that Goodwn perfection.

  388. TheShaz Says:

    Now the defense needs to put their foot on their neck

  389. Dooshlarue Says:

    JW I hope you’re watching and learning about POISE.

  390. Bucnut2 Says:

    Monken+Fitz some much better than Koetteer+Winston. Time to move on.

  391. Tampa Bay Tailgater Says:

    God Bless Fitz!!

  392. Alvin Scissors Harper Says:

    4 possessions and 24 points in the Superdome with the backup QB in the opening week of the season. Not too shabby! Monken is making a huge difference here.

  393. lurker Says:

    smart timeout, smart keeper to make 3rd and short, smart passes

  394. donuts Says:

    Shaz I agree it was a false start on the RT but they didnt call it. Bucs TD!

  395. Chris in WA Says:

    So how many Bucs are going to be picked off the Waiver wire after this week in Fantasy Football?

  396. Ftmyersbuc Says:

    9.5pt under dogs, won’t happen again all season

  397. TheShaz Says:

    Ummm

    If Fitz wins these 1st three games……Do we have a QB controversy ?

  398. Rod Munch Says:

    What a difference not having a completely predictable and conservative Dirk NOT calling plays has. This isn’t about Fitz or Godwin or Barber of D-Jax or Evans or OJ, it’s about Dirk NOT calling the plays where he was ultra predictable and called the same plays over and over and over again in the same situation. The Saints game planned for that, and now they get something totally different.

  399. TheBucsAnthem Says:

    Everyone now sees why all those bone headed decisions Jameis made has limited the offense

  400. AmericasEnabler Says:

    #80 is having a break out game.

  401. Sweeptheleg Says:

    The offense has NOT looked this good in the dirk era. Everything is working perfectly so far.

  402. Rod Munch Says:

    Will you morons stick to this week and stop thinking we’re 3-0 with the top offense in football in 4 weeks? Jesus Christ, this is why nothing good ever happens, you give a solid 1 1/2 quarters of offense and people think the Bucs are winning the SB.

  403. lurker Says:

    you don’t think any of this is fitz, you are dead wrong.

  404. King C Says:

    Actually the line went up to 10.5 points

  405. Bird Says:

    Where is tmax aka. Reality is a beech

    He predicted 52 14 saints

    Sorry dude. Wrong again.

  406. AmericasEnabler Says:

    Refs gonna try to decide this game now. Can’t have the Bucs beating NO at home opening week LOL

  407. Buc Neckid Says:

    How is that a Penalty on Us?

  408. Im tired and 87 is right Says:

    Chris in WA. In my three fantasy leagues I already have Barber, Godwin, and Winston sitting on the bench. So unless you are playing in a league without a true Bucs fan most are already gone. GO Bucs!

  409. Eric Reyes Says:

    If he continues to play like this you trade Winston for a bunch of picks to solidify the remaining areas of concern (including a quarterback for he future).

  410. King C Says:

    Hey Guys, Let’s remember that New Orleans is a top 10 defense playing at home

  411. AmericasEnabler Says:

    Evans!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111

  412. TheBucsAnthem Says:

  413. Ftmyersbuc Says:

    Hell yes

  415. Im tired and 87 is right Says:

    So now special teams you can’t tackle. BS

  416. MadMax Says:

    OH YEAH!!!!!!!!!!! GO D!!!!!!!!

  417. BuccoDav Says:

    oh boy, oh boy, oh boy…

  418. Max Says:

    FAST START???? HELL YES!!

  419. Buc Neckid Says:

    Bring it Refs…
    Call a Penalty on that!!!

    not time to slow down now…

  434. Buc Neckid Says:

    Listen to the Superdome murmuring!

  435. TheShaz Says:

    I will take that as a “PUT FOOT ON THEIR NECKS”

  436. Sweeptheleg Says:

    What in the world is going on here?

    Wow

  437. Couch Fan Says:

    I ask for help the the Defense said ye shall receive!!! WOOOOOO

    It’s getting pretty quiet in the Stupordome!

  452. Capt. Blighe Says:

    Dont get conservative Monk

  453. TheShaz Says:

    Ummm Joe……

    I think the hits to JoeBucsFans is going to spike in about 2 hours

  454. AlabamaBucsFan Says:

    WTF. Did not see the bucs being 2 TD ahead.

  455. Dirty Bucs Says:

    My biggest fear is that Tampa takes their foot off the gas and gets conservative in the 2nd half. Please don’t do this!!!! Step on their throats!

  456. TheShaz Says:

    Capt. Blighe: For sure, keep the pressure on!

  457. King C Says:

    If we have to score 60 to win so be it

  458. Buc Neckid Says:

    What was our points per game last year (scored)?
    We are exceeding that in the first half

  459. MadMax Says:

    Look at that pass rush! Nice to see!

  460. Mike Evans Goat Says:

    Nassib shoulda had a sack there. Good pressure

  461. Buccaneer Bonzai Says:

    This keeps up we might hear the stick carriers.

  462. donuts Says:

    Nassib! had Brees and let go…

  463. XpfcWintergreen2 Says:

    When was the last time the Bucs have scored on every on every possession in the first half?

    No Excuses! Wreak havoc!

    Hargreaves does what?

    keep hitting Kamara like that

  467. AmericasEnabler Says:

    I love how Ira is like sacks don’t matter, so Ira you just see Brees on the run… you think getting flushed throws him off? Brees HAS to be sacked dood.

  468. AlabamaBucsFan Says:

    Need an int to lock down the half.

  469. Bird Says:

    Man. Nassib has to make that sack

  470. TheShaz Says:

    Hit Drew!

  471. Rod Munch Says:

    Why does Mike Smith have David playing one-on-one with Michael Thomas? Ugh. I love David, but it’s a WR, you don’t put LBs on WRs.

  472. King C Says:

    See we got a break from the refs on that one

  473. Alvin Scissors Harper Says:

    Somebody better tell MJ Stewart that this ain’t college. You gotta touch them on the ground!

    ^^^tell that to the whole defense dood. Conte just staring at him

  476. Rod Munch Says:

    Need to hold them to a FG attempt here, hopefully, or just let them score now and get the ball back so we can score another TD before halftime.

  477. unbelievable Says:

    What did we give LVD all that money for?

    So he can constantly be 2 yards behind the play?

  478. TheShaz Says:

    Keep them out of the endzone defense

  479. Capt. Blighe Says:

    Kamara has a nose ring, 50 Bucs for the player who removes it.

  480. Rick Says:

    Got away with one…

  481. Dirty Bucs Says:

    Yeah, we got a break there for sure. I’ll take it. Seems we get enough calls the other way, I don’t feel bad about it at all!

  482. King C Says:

    I dont think we see Gillislee run again

  483. Buc Neckid Says:

    Only One Sack
    But at least Brees is having to move around A LOT .
    Presssure is getting better, Not Great, But Better

  484. Bri Bri Says:

    Is this the most points the Bucs have ever scored in a half? If the defense can hold itself together this passing offense could be very special.

  485. VegasBuc Says:

    Nice to see the REAL fans commenting now and the fake ones have gone MIA. THEY’re waiting for the next mistake from their easy chair. GO BUCS!

  486. Walkergodeep Says:

    Carl should had a sack

  487. Bird Says:

    All our pressure is coming from left side.

    Put JPP on left for a few reps.

  488. Doctor Stroud Says:

    Coach Pursed Lips is not happy!

  489. unbelievable Says:

    @Capt. Blighe

    I’ll match that!

  490. Buccaneer Bonzai Says:

    Brees is very hard to sack. Maybe the hardest.

  491. Rod Munch Says:

    The refs called the play down, the Bucs stopped playing, he’s not getting a TD there if the refs don’t say the play is over. In any case ALWAYS at least touch a guy down, never don’t do that. You don’t need to slap them in the head to get a PF call, just tap them to make sure. Basic 101 stuff that Mike Smith had better be all over them on.

  492. Buc Neckid Says:

    Got away with an early contact

    Why does Mike Smith have David playing one-on-one with Michael Thomas? Ugh. I love David, but it’s a WR, you don’t put LBs on WRs.

    ^^^Not Smith’s fault. Payton knows to play Thomas all over the place and especially in LB’s area of coverage.

  495. Godeep66 Says:

    JBoo who????

  496. Capt. Blighe Says:

    Nassib playing a bunch and no spence.

  497. Buc Neckid Says:

    Triple team Kamara EVERY Play

  498. TheShaz Says:

    He was going for the ball (thru the WR)

  499. Rod Munch Says:

    Shocking, idiot Ryan Smith with a big missed play.

    Why is he in the game? Why is he in the NFL?

  500. AmericasEnabler Says:

    Capt. Blighe Says:

    Nassib playing a bunch and no spence.

    ^^^Would you? Have you seen Spence play recently? lol

  501. King C Says:

    kamara is a beast . It’s gonna be him and Thomas vs our defense all 2nd half

  502. Bird Says:

    Cmon defense

  503. TheShaz Says:

    Is LB the weakness of our defense now?

    Our guys are getting juked out of their cleats

  504. tnew Says:

    now.. If we could have a GMC sighting..

  505. Capt. Blighe Says:

    JPP looks like he dont want to be there

  506. BROCKTACULAR Says:

    Still playing too far off on pass plays

  507. Trench War Says:

    Put Justin Evans on Kamara …he’s the best athlete to keep up with him. and yes I know he’s a friggin safety

  508. Buc Neckid Says:

    So Quiet…

  509. Alvin Scissors Harper Says:

    Jesus we can’t stop Kamara.

  510. Rod Munch Says:

    TheShaz – It’s Kamara you moron, it’s like saying why can’t Lynch tackle Barry Sanders 1-on-1, he’s awful. Kamara is a special talent.

  511. Bird Says:

    Cmon defense. Big stop

  512. Mike Evans Goat Says:

    Ryan smith blown coverage

  513. Ftmyersbuc Says:

    The saints have not had one contested catch, they all are completely open catches

  514. Buc Neckid Says:

    Well that sucked

  515. Matts17 Says:

    Ugh. This defense is awful.

  516. Trench War Says:

    Now would be a good time for a kickoff return

  517. AmericasEnabler Says:

    Blitz the LBs AND your nickel!? Smith FAIL.

  518. Dirty Bucs Says:

    Missed assignment there. Damn

  519. Easy Says:

    Lol that’s on VHIII

  520. Rod Munch Says:

    Don’t tell me… no replay yet… it was the Ryan Smith – Chris Conte stack that left the WR wide open..

    Yep, replay just showed that.

    God damnit, why is Ryan Smith in the f’n game, he’s terrible.

  521. Trench War Says:

    for a td

  522. jmarkbuc Says:

    Hope Fitz can score 24 more in the second half..looks like we will need it

  523. King C Says:

    Lets keep the vibes positive guys.. We all would’ve taken a 31-24 lead in the 1st half

  524. Season Is Over Says:

    Why did Hargreaves leave his guy?

  525. Architek Says:

    I’m sorry I don’t like Mike Smith

  526. Rod Munch Says:

    That was 29, Ryan Smith, in coverage who just stood there with no one around. He’s an idiot.

  527. Trench War Says:

    DJax on a fly

  528. ATrain Says:

    By the way do the Bucs get some press coverage after this

  529. King C Says:

    Ironically defensive TDs can hurt a defense bc they have to get right back on the field

  530. Defense Rules Says:

    Blitzing LB on that TD … didn’t come close. Poor coverage by Ryan Smith for sure.

  531. Anglican Says:

    A lot better team without Jamis in there….. Lots better and watchable!

  532. Rod Munch Says:

    Shocking, the refs make up some BS.

  533. Moreon Says:

    Thought defense was suppose to be improved

  534. Mike Evans Goat Says:

    Omg!!!!

  535. Rayjay1122 Says:

    King is right. We new defense is the weak link. At least the offense looks like it has turned the corner.

  536. Trench War Says:

    BS

  537. Dooshlarue Says:

    Thanks Donovan

  538. Bird Says:

    Rod munch

    What is your problem. You are posting negative comment after negative comment and calling people moron.

    Get over yourself

  539. Dirty Bucs Says:

    OMG that sucks. But it was a good call.

  540. Buc Neckid Says:

    Really?!?

  541. Rod Munch Says:

    That was f’n nothing – that was not a hold, he didn’t even touch him. God damnit these refs.

  542. Destinjohnny Says:

    He gave his back up
    Questionable call

  543. BucEmUp Says:

    HEY REALIST!!!!!! WHERE IS YOUR OFFENSIVE PLAY CALLING AND TALENT EXCUSE NOW????!!!!!!!
    WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME THE BUGS HAD 24 OFFENSIVE POINTS IN THE FIRST HALF AND STILL HAS THE OTHER TEAMS OFFENSE NIPPING AT THEIR HEELS????

    ADMIT IT!!!!! MIKE SMITH IS A JOOOOOOOKE!!!!!!!!! BUCE WILL LOSE THIS GAME FROM SOFT COVERAGE LIKE ALWAYS!!!!!!!!!

  544. Rod Munch Says:

    Dirty Bucs – How was that a good call, he literally didn’t even touch the guy. Are you even watching the game?

  545. VaTom Says:

    Man, it’s hard to watch this defense.

  546. Moreon Says:

    Hhh

  547. Dirtiestplayer Says:

    We need to get rid of mike smith this going to be the same old D given any avg. D this lead Bucs would win the game

  548. Season Is Over Says:

    Was Hargreaves supposed to blitz or did he just leave Thomas free?

  549. Buc Neckid Says:

    The refs are VERY Inconsistant today
    That is worse than being just bad

  550. ColonelAngus Says:

    Weak ass call

  551. Rod Munch Says:

    There we go, in a shootout, with 45 seconds left in the half and a time out and Dirk says take a knee.

    Typical cowardly Dirk.

  552. Buc Neckid Says:

    Superdome is STUNNED!!!

  553. The Real Drew Says:

    Effing officials! That had zero affect on the play and was so borderline.

  554. Dirty Bucs Says:

    Rod Munch, watch the replay. Smith pushed him squarely in the back right in front of Hump. It sucks, but it was the right call.

  555. Rayjay1122 Says:

    One observation. Donovan SMITH….sorry…….Ryan Smith……Sorry…..Mike Smith…….Sorry……any relation ?

    😂

  556. VaTom Says:

    So many. So many rookies. I’m not.convinced we will see successful adjustments from Tampa. I’m certain we are going to see a different Saints when they come out. Hang in there Bucs. Please!

  557. King C Says:

    Rod munch
    Nobody is agreeing with your negativity

  558. rrsrq Says:

    We could have 40

  559. jmarkbuc Says:

    Think Smitty can adjust to get anybody near their receivers…

    Offense looks tremendous. If we could just get a half assed D.

  560. Defense Rules Says:

    Rod, taking a knee when you’re on your own 10 yd line with 36 secs to go in the half is smart, not cowardly.

  561. Rod Munch Says:

    On that TD that was given up you had a switch with Ryan Smith supposed to take the guy inside, instead the moron literally takes one step then stops and points at the guy who catches the TD where Smith should have been. Meanwhile, Conte gives zero help underneath. That’s what I saw on that play, a typical clueless Ryan Smith just standing around with no one around him looking completely lost. Happens at least 4 times a game. Earlier in that series he fails to use the sideline to get Karama out of bounds and instead gets juked to the sideline and Karama blows past him for like 20 yards. Ryan Smith is garbage and shouldn’t be in there.

  562. SchwiftyBuc Says:

    Denzel Ward already has a pick.

  563. MadMax Says:

    Def surprised at our lead at the half…kepp it up guys…..score 50!

  564. BigMacAttack Says:

    Best 1/2 of offense I’ve ever seen from the Bucs. Win or lose, no complaints about the team. Cudos to Coach for letting Monken continue to call the plays.

  565. stpetebucsfan Says:

    UH…we are playing Drew Brees and Alvin Kamara right?

    Man we could win this game and the regular WHINERS would still be here snivelling about the Bucs.

    Drew Brees and Kamara have made a LOT of NFL defenses look suspect. We just need to hang in there.

  566. Bird Says:

    We gotta keep scoring. Give Fitzpatrick some Red Bull’s

  567. Rod Munch Says:

    Defense Rules – The Bucs can not stop the Saints and need every point they can get. Also, last year, the Bucs were sort of in this same situation at the end of the game and the Bucs got a TD out of it. If the Bucs come out in the 2nd, don’t score on the opening drive, they will then give up a TD and all of this is for not.

    You play to win the game, not to not lose the game. In a game, on the road, no one expects you to win, you’re up by 14 with 2 mins in the half, you give a up huge TD, you don’t sit on the ball if you have any chance at all to get try to get points. You can’t.

    Hoping for the best, but you will have to outscore the Saints, which means you don’t leave anything on the table and you don’t do the boring predictable coaching chart garbage.

    We shall see when the game is over if this costs them.

  568. Defense Rules Says:

    Just looked at the halftime stats. Fitz is 11-for-14 for 210 yards. Wow. And he’s doing a great job of spreading the ball around. Peyton Barber has 8 carries for 50 yards … nice average. BTW, he looks like he’s running MUCH better to the left than to the right.

  569. Cannon Says:

    I sure hope we win this track meet.

    Go Bucs!

  570. AmericasEnabler Says:

    Rod Munch Says:
    September 9th, 2018 at 2:34 pm

    ^^^You’re right. I think he wasn’t on the same page with VHIII. I think VHIII thought that Smith would pick up #13 if he blitzed and welp… NOPE. LOL

  571. Defense Rules Says:

    Rod, Koetter knew that if he’d hurried it up & gone for it but failed, he would’ve had the punt. Still say it was a smart move to take the knee in that situation. After all, Saints do have to kick off to us to start the 3rd qtr.

  572. Rod Munch Says:

    Monken called a great first half. Let’s hope that we keep it up and Dirk doesn’t get afraid and have the offense go into a shell and let the defense win the game, which is what Dirk has done for 2 straight years.

    I’m nervous that Dirk will be Dirk, but hoping it’s a new day in Tampa Bay.

  573. AmericasEnabler Says:

    Bird Says:
    September 9th, 2018 at 2:39 pm
    We gotta keep scoring. Give Fitzpatrick some Red Bull’s

    ^^^LMAO

  574. Trench War Says:

    Fitz scored more points in one quarter than Winston scores on average per game

  575. Bird Says:

    No doubt

    Rod munch – thanks for all the negativity. Get over yourself

    You are tmax 2.0.

  576. Im tired and 87 is right Says:

    The one underlining in this game is coach smith still playing off players. Let’s get real he hasn’t stopped the Saints. I think he should change his game plan or we will lose. I could see Smith being fired by the bye just because of his ignorance. And that is even if we still have won games. It’s just because he is that bad. Go Bucs!

  577. Robert Says:

    Lol I told y’all Fitz would light em up and jdubya better update dat resume/rap sheet

  578. Robert Says:

    White lightnin’

  579. rrsrq Says:

    You guys realize we are playing how many new players on defense, remember communication is the key and likely one of the best offenses in the league. Would love to stop them from scoring, but the offense doing their job. Yeah bad call on the PI’s with Brate and Hump, good call on D. Smith, all he needed to do was use his body. As far as the defense, Saints scored 17 points when he was not out there, he is a good tackler, but Kamara can make the best look bad. The Thomas touchdown, definitely miscommunication. Gotta bring Brees down we hen we get there.

  580. Bird Says:

    Fun to watch.

    Gotta stop Kamara. Put 2 guys on him

  581. TampaTown Says:

    Can’t take our foot off the gas. Keep taking it to ‘em

  582. Rod Munch Says:

    Defense Rules – We had this same conversation last year in the Atlanta game at home on a 4th and 3 from the 37 when Dirk punted the ball, and you said it’s the safe thing to do, and I said if they punt the ball they’ll give up a TD right away – which is exactly what happened. You can’t coach scared in games you’re not supposed to win. I know the traditional coach thinking you have, and if you’re the better team that’s fine and dandy, but if you’re a huge underdog who can’t stop the other team, you need to always try to get points and throw the coaching manual in the trash.

    Again, I understand the thinking, and if the defense was playing well I’d agree -but they’re not. This is a shootout, and in a shootout you don’t just give up a possession without even trying.

    With that said I really really hope I’m wrong and the Bucs make me look stupid for worrying about it.

  583. El_Buc941 Says:

    Man the saints have nobody that can cover ANY of our receivers and Barber is literally running away with the RB position. As for Fitzpatrick, man if we win this game I believe we can go 3-0…and if that happens I think we will have a QB controversy on our hands guys.WHAT A GREAT DAY TO BE A BUCS FAN!!!!

  584. Bird Says:

    Run up middle.

    Man we are 6 studs deep at receiver /tight end

  585. Jeagan1999 Says:

    Keep throwin! We can beat these guys!

    Kudos to the Oline on giving Fitz time,

  586. Rod Munch Says:

    Bird – Run up the middle AFTER a play action pass on first down. Nothing wrong with running up the middle so long as you mix it up at least some of the time.

  587. AmericasEnabler Says:

    ok open season on Brees payback is due.

  588. SB Says:

    If Fitz keeps this up Jameis is going to have a Hard time seeing the field again.

  589. King C Says:

    Another break from the refs

  590. AmericasEnabler Says:

    Brees need to get taken out I don’t care. Payton needs to get put down a peg.

  591. Bird Says:

    Yah boy. I love it.

  592. Tc Says:

    The aints are trying to play dirty and hit fitz

  593. jmarkbuc Says:

  594. BuccoDav Says:

    Saints are losing their composure… keep up the pressure!

  595. Rod Munch Says:

    Ugh, I don’t care if we benefit or not from these calls, I hate these ticky tack calls.

  596. ATrain Says:

    Frustrating the Saints

  597. Mike Evans Goat Says:

    We can’t run inside the 5

  598. MadMax Says:

    WTF, that was uncalled for though JW3!

  599. Matts17 Says:

    That new roughing penalty is utter nonsense.

  600. Bird Says:

    Evans is fine. He is a warrior.

    He always grabs that wrist

  601. ATrain Says:

    Refs have to give back in the Dome

  602. Tc Says:

    Aints are pressing.

  603. lurker Says:

    more bounties, huh

  604. rrsrq Says:

    This is where you should’ve pounded the rock 3 straight

  605. Alvin Scissors Harper Says:

    Remember that stop. We should have scored a TD there. Ten points ain’t enough against this team!

  606. aj Says:

    Open up the offense, and Evans gets much more YAC. He is getting to run more than hitches right now.

  607. Walkergodeep Says:

    Why is Freddie getting a pass

  608. AmericasEnabler Says:

    Bird Says:
    September 9th, 2018 at 2:52 pm
    Evans is fine. He is a warrior.

    He always grabs that wrist

    ^^^Hope you’re right man.

    Watch #94 on defense that fooo got a rush!

  609. Bird Says:

    Hope mike smith brings some pressure in second half

    Bree’s has way
    To much time.

  610. AmericasEnabler Says:

    rrsrq Says:
    September 9th, 2018 at 2:53 pm
    This is where you should’ve pounded the rock 3 straight

    ^^^Yes! That was very very Kooter-esk with 0 sets in the red zone. Worried Kooooter is in Munkys ear too much on that drive.

  611. King C Says:

    My point about the refs: Winners overcome the refs, Losers whine about the refs

  612. VaTom Says:

    Come on. Can’t let up.

  613. Rod Munch Says:

    You have a giant in OJ and you have a very good pass catching TE in Brate and you do an empty backset with Maritno in the game. Not a fan of that call. But hey Monken has earned a lot of good will so far, so won’t complain about it too much… but yeah, scratch that play out of the playbook. If Evans is in Martino’s place then sure. Again, not complaining, you’re not going to call a perfect game.

  614. unbelievable Says:

    Our run game has slowed down tremendously.

  615. Cannon Says:

    Let’s go defense

  616. Im tired and 87 is right Says:

    #94 is Nassib which I told y’all!

  617. The Real Drew Says:

    How many people read articles saying this would be a blowout and play the Saints D in fantasy football. They didn’t watch preseason. I know preseason is watered down, but you could tell this offense was gonna be good with all the QBs. Wish our D would improve more.

  618. Dirty Bucs Says:

    Hello there, GMC! Tackle for loss.

  619. Rod Munch Says:

    Wow the Bucs are playing up on defense… was that a half time adjustment by Mike Smith!??! Holy Jesus, it is a new day in Tampa Bay!

  620. VaTom Says:

    Don’t get sloppy. We can’t afford to give them one yard. Not one. Brees is going to light us up. We need all the buffer. Come on rookies in the 2ndry. Come on.

  621. Tc Says:

    Where is jpp

  622. AmericasEnabler Says:

    Kwon is HAVING A GAME!

  623. Rod Munch Says:

    Great tackle by Kwon there!

  624. unbelievable Says:

    @The Real Drew

    Even the announcers sound like that.

    Nice TFL by McCoy right there.

  625. Bird Says:

    There you go kwon

  626. ATrain Says:

    McCoy has shown up

    Now we are In the backfield

  627. unbelievable Says:

    Kwon playing much better since the 1st quarter.

  628. rrsrq Says:

    C’mon Bucs

  629. Cannon Says:

    3rd and 13… lets get this stop!

  630. unbelievable Says:

    It will be huge if our D can get off the field right now.

  631. Bird Says:

    Big play here.

    A stop would be huge. Haven’t bucs scored on every possession?

  632. lurker Says:

    saints are discombobulated

  633. lurker Says:

    every possession but the last one before the half with a penalty, then kneel down

  634. Dirty Bucs Says:

    Seems Brees is at his best when we bring the pressure. I don’t want to blitz 2 guys against him, as he always finds the open man.

  635. rrsrq Says:

    Nice D

  636. Rod Munch Says:

    Bird – No, we took a knee before the half with the ball with nearly 45 seconds and a TO. Hopefully that doesn’t kill us. But every other series, yes, it’s been a score.

  637. Tampa Bay Tailgater Says:

    Get off the field, 6 minute drive for 7. Let’s go. Finish the job. Change the mentality of just holding on and slit the throat.

  638. Bird Says:

    Huge

  639. The Real Drew Says:

    Monken for president

  640. VaTom Says:

    Come on coverage. A little cushion…just a couple yds. Keep em in front. None of this 10yd crap.

  641. Cannon Says:

    Nicely done, D!

  642. lurker Says:

    good hold

  643. TampaTown Says:

    Quiet in there now….

  644. Dirty Bucs Says:

    Now, step on their throats! Put it up 17!!!!

  645. ATrain Says:

    Drew get mad

    Drew plays bad

    Keep it up

  646. TampaTown Says:

    I bet the Stick Carriers are going nuts and have all probably lost their voice.

  647. Cannon Says:

    Now let’s get another score..

  648. unbelievable Says:

    That’s what I’m saying!

    Go for the kill right now. Then we can just tee off on Brees the rest of the game.

  649. Bird Says:

    Bucs offense will get another td here
    Unstoppable. Fitz has time. And to many studs at receiver /tigh end for us

    Someone always open.

  650. Tampa Bay Tailgater Says:

    TD seals this. Long methodical drive. Keep Brees on the sidelines. I want some Peyton Bahhhhhhbahhh!!

  651. ATrain Says:

    What Dirty said

  652. VaTom Says:

    Come on offense. More magic, more skill, keep it on them. Focus. No errors.

  653. Cannon Says:

    I hope #13 is ok.

  654. VaTom Says:

    Come on Monkin. Keep the pressure on. Don’t change the strategy. Defense does NOT win this game without more O.

  655. Dirty Bucs Says:

    OMG we had 6 there. Damn

  656. Bird Says:

    Go for it

  657. AmericasEnabler Says:

    Beginning of the end? We get a stop finally and don’t take advantage? Bad juju right now.

  658. Cannon Says:

    Ugh… we needed a yard

  659. lurker Says:

    wtf….ahhhhhhg

  660. Defense Rules Says:

    Ryan Smith deserves some props on that nice tackle on the punt.

  661. rrsrq Says:

    Hope we don’t have to look back on that miss

  662. Rod Munch Says:

    Nothing wrong with Fitz going deep there, well other than missing the throw. You have to stay aggressive to win the game, not going to blame him for doing that, it will backfire once in a while.

  663. TampaTown Says:

    Glad Brian Anger was on the sideline. Figured he was in the locker room playing Fortnite

  664. Cannon Says:

    Let’s go Defense.

  665. lurker Says:

    good call, play was there.

    blitz picked up. just a missed throw.
    fitz getting tired?

  666. AmericasEnabler Says:

    Moonkin with 2 bad series ouch.

  667. Rod Munch Says:

    Defense Rules – Yeah Smith is a good special teams player and an abortion of a defensive player.

  668. Im tired and 87 is right Says:

    How’s Evans?

  669. BucsFanInDFW Says:

    That blitz pickup by Rogers was outstanding. Too bad we missed the hookup deep…

  670. VaTom Says:

    I hate to say it. But I’m scared after that series. We need results

  671. unbelievable Says:

    Fitz got greedy.

    You only needed a yard to keep the drive alive.

    Missed opportunity. 10 pt lead on the Saints isn’t much.

  672. unbelievable Says:

    I think he missed the throw because Godwin got slowed down when the defender tripped up in front of him.

  673. Rod Munch Says:

    unbelievable – Yeah, a 10 point lead isn’t enough, which is why Fitz was looking for 7. Literally nothing wrong with that play, you only take 2 yards instead of 70 and a TD if you’re playing scared. He did the right thing, just missed the throw. It happens.

  674. aj Says:

    Is JPP declared out? Nassib seems to be taking all the snaps.

  675. Cannon Says:

    Smith got lucky

  676. AmericasEnabler Says:

    EVANS HAHAAHAHHAHA

  677. unbelievable Says:

    Oh STFU Ryan Smith, you had nothing to do with him dropping that pass.

  678. Bird Says:

    What a hit. Took him off feet

    Kill em all

    Dude is a savage

  679. Cannon Says:

    Niiiiiiiice stop

  680. Alvin Scissors Harper Says:

    Defense is playing some inspired football this quarter!

  681. unbelievable Says:

    EVANS!

  682. Easy Says:

    Evans laying the wood. Let’s score a TD and put these Aints away!

  683. rrsrq Says:

    This is the team I expected, especially offensively, with the exception of expected some ROJO

  684. unbelievable Says:

    Maybe Hump can run one back again…

  685. Ftmyersbuc Says:

    OMG look what happens when we are in position to contest the catches

  686. aj Says:

    JPP was on punt return. This is confusing.

  687. King C Says:

    See that ..
    If you’re calling bad juju …You’re the bad juju

  688. Cannon Says:

    Solid return

  689. Mike Evans Goat Says:

    Gotta watch #7 Hill on these punts. He’s the 3rd sting Qb and a LBer. Perfect for a fake punt/pass

  690. Bird Says:

    Whew.

    OK. Time for offense to get 7.

  691. Walkergodeep Says:

  693. Rod Munch Says:

    I had to mute my TV, can only take so much Chris Meyers. God damn is he terrible, and I’d listen to the radio broadcast but everything is out of sync. In the pre-HD days that was how I did it, but now it’s a huge pain in the rear to get that working, I wish they’d figure it out.

  694. Ftmyersbuc Says:

    Defense starting to remember how to tackle again. Another td here puts them away

  695. VaTom Says:

    Come on Offense. Blocks for Barber. North South Peyton
    ..come on.

  696. Cannon Says:

    Let’s see some offense, Go Bucs!

  697. Bird Says:

    Great call

    Go boy

  698. unbelievable Says:

    Yea Rod I hear ya. I like the aggression but would have liked to keep the drive alive. All good though our defense was able to get a stop.

  699. Cannon Says:

    HUMP!

  700. Rod Munch Says:

    Ftmyersbuc – Bucs need more than 7 more to put away Brees at home. I wouldn’t be comfortable with a lead until we’re up by 21+ with less than 2 mins to go, then I might feel OK. Might.

  701. Ftmyersbuc Says:

    Man get quizz it if there

  702. unbelievable Says:

    Hump’s running has looked very improved this year between preseason and the game so far today.

  703. VaTom Says:

    Nothing puts Brees away. Biting nails til the 4.qtr ends
    Dudes chewed us up to many times. Come on Rookies. Come on 2ndry. Come on O Line. Break Barber free.

  704. Cannon Says:

    Why isn’t Barber running?

  725. ColonelAngus Says:

  726. lurker Says:

    love the accuracy on the deep balls

  727. scholty Says:

    So Koetter was talking that we need to up the number of explosive plays this season. I think for Game 1 that goal so far has been accomplished

  728. FR Says:

    Yea Joe we need JM back NOTTTTTTT

  729. unbelievable Says:

    LOLattimore

  730. Im tired and 87 is right Says:

    Ok good answer! I love the leprechaun!

  731. Alvin Scissors Harper Says:

    Does anyone think we would have 41 with Winston in there? Way to go bearded Leprechaun!

  732. VaTom Says:

    Holy….shlitz

  733. BuccoDav Says:

    I’m concerned… are we scoring too soon?

    HELL NO!

  734. AmericasEnabler Says:

    Ok bois now are the bucs going to fade in the 4th like last year.

    This is where Licht’s plan will get put to the test.

  735. Rod Munch Says:

    I’m still extremely worried that Dirk is going to shut down the offense and let NO back into the game.

  736. Bucnut2 Says:

    WOW!! Fitz is lighting it up!!

  737. Dooshlarue Says:

    Dear Jameis
    Call Webster…. he needs you bad!

  738. Cannon Says:

    Doesn’t look like Fitzpatrick has weak arm to me.

  739. XpfcWintergreen2 Says:

    Now we are playing some damned football!!!!!!!

    _____
    Go Bucs!!!

  740. Bird Says:

    Tmax aka reality is a beech predicted

    52 -14 saints.

  741. Tampa Bay Tailgater Says:

    I’ve seen things today to tell Winston to pack his bags but don’t call Uber!

  742. VaTom Says:

    Thank yiu Monkin! Foot mashed on the gas pedal.

    I’m still extremely worried that Dirk is going to shut down the offense and let NO back into the game.

    We shall see.

  744. Jeagan1999 Says:

    AMERICA’S QB RYAN FITZPATRICK!

  745. Defense Rules Says:

    Yes 41-24 … now’s the time to step on their throats Bucs. Don’t go turtle … keep the pressure on.

  746. Cannon Says:

    Keep it up, D.

  747. King C Says:

    They left Lattimore 1 on 1 with Evans because Lattimore is awesome defender and dominated Evans last year… NOT TODAY tho!

  748. Howarde Cosell Says:

    It’s the beard!
    Fitzpatrick’s beard has more testosterone then both teams put together

  749. FR Says:

    Even if we lose our offense looks better with Fitz

  750. Not there yet Says:

    Unbeatable saints lol yeah right. Bucs look pretty good for a team the so called experts picked to have the first pick in the draft

  751. AmericasEnabler Says:

    LVD missing a play, just like last year around this part of the game.

  752. mark2001 Says:

    Time to cut loose, D line… time to feast.

  753. Dooshlarue Says:

    I guess it doesn’t have to be hard to score points.
    Great call Monken and great execution by Fitzpatrick and receivers

  754. Howard Cosell Says:

    It’s the beard!
    Fitzpatrick’s beard has more testosterone then both teams put together

  755. VaTom Says:

    Smith, hold this game together with your youngsters. Come on 2ndry!

  756. Dirty Bucs Says:

    David missed that tackle.

  757. Rayjay1122 Says:

    One of the best offensive performancees I have witnessed in my 4 plus decades watching the Bucs. Very impressed on the road on New aOrleans. Now if the defense could just be average……

  758. ATrain Says:

    Got to work on tackling though

  759. King C Says:

    Rod Munch >>>>I’m still extremely worried that Dirk is going to shut down the offense and let NO back into the game.>>>>

    Boy Rod you’re just wrong wrong wrong today aint ya
    LMAO

  760. Trench War Says:

    4000 yards a season ain’t sh|t

  761. Rayjay1122 Says:

    There we go!!

  762. unbelievable Says:

    David has just never looked as good as he did under Schiano.

    He still makes splash plays (FF, Int, etc,) but he gets beat a lot.

    Make a nice tackle on Kamara as I’m running my mouth lol.

  763. Trench War Says:

    Joe’s favorite guy lol

  764. Dirty Bucs Says:

    Let’s Gooooooo!

  765. Defense Rules Says:

    Another prop for Ryan Smith … fumble recovery. YES!

  766. Cannon Says:

    HELL YEAH

  767. rrsrq Says:

    Oh my

  768. Matts17 Says:

    Where’s this pass rush I heard so much about?

  769. Bird Says:

    Weewooooooooooo

  770. lurker Says:

    i love mike myers!

  771. Mike Evans Goat Says:

    Don’t turtle up now. GAS! GAS! GAS!

  772. Cannon Says:

    Let’s get another touchdown

  773. AmericasEnabler Says:

    Resting PB for the 4th great call Munky.

  774. unbelievable Says:

    Wow was that some luck. Good heads up play by Kwon and Ryan Smith.

  775. Rod Munch Says:

    Kwon ran back and forced that fumble, I think it was him anyways, what a great recovery he’s had since an terrible opening 2 series. Good for him.

  776. Cannon Says:

    I wanna see 60 by our offense

  777. King C Says:

    Turnovers too…
    Offense going for over 600 yards today boys!

  778. VaTom Says:

    Thank you coaches! Good job Kwon.

  779. Walkergodeep Says:

    Which one of y’all sacrificed y’all new born for this win???

  780. Trench War Says:

    I think it was him anyways ..what a joke that’s something Joe would try to say. give it up for Ryan Smith

  781. unbelievable Says:

    Yea we saw Kwon make plays like that his rookie season a few times including that insane Atlanta game.

    He’s looked much much better since the first quarter ended.

  782. TheShaz Says:

    Hey Joe!

    How is the web server holding up?

  783. Btroyal89 Says:

    WOW. MONK GETTING THE NOD TODAY WAS HUGEEEEEEE. I am very impressed by our front 7. Solid effort

  784. Jman Says:

    Cut Jameis keep fitz til you can get Tua 2020

  785. Alvin Scissors Harper Says:

    One more TD and Monken can sit up there in the pressbox, order a Pizza and have a cold beer!

  786. Cannon Says:

    Let’s keep the foot on the gas. This is the Saint’s offense we’re facing

  787. Rod Munch Says:

    BTW who blew the coverage on that Saints play? I’m tempted to blame Smith but didn’t actually see it, I just assumed it was Smith which is why he was standing around to pick up the fumble. But anywho, got the ball back… just hope Dirk isn’t going to “run the clock” and “protect the lead”… Please Dirk, surprize me for once…

  788. Ftmyersbuc Says:

    Maybe Mike Smith’s plan is to let them wide open then sneak up on them and go for the FF. SMH I’ll take it

  789. Rod Munch Says:

    Ftmyersbuc – Haha.

  790. rrsrq Says:

    Come on PB25, we need ya now

  791. Capt. Blighe Says:

    Fitzpatrick just name starter for week 4 in Chitown.

  792. Buccaneer Bonzai Says:

    Fitz is doing his job. His problem has always been consistency from game to game

  793. King C Says:

    Like 30% of people had New Orleans as their survivor Pick
    I’m loving it!

  794. NaplesBucsFan Says:

    Let’s Bucs…looking fantastic for a change!!!!

  799. Jbeachbuc Says:

    Bottom line
    Punched in the mouth!!!

  800. Mike Evans Goat Says:

    Where is Cam Brate?

  801. AmericasEnabler Says:

    Get your resume ready Lattimore hahaha

  802. Rod Munch Says:

    They don’t appear to be shutting it down on offense.

    This is amazing, Dirk has turned a new leaf!

    Wow, when Jameis is back, if they’re running an open offense like this, wow wow wow.

  803. unbelievable Says:

    It’s cuz Monken is calling plays.

  804. Cannon Says:

    Stayed disciplined, offense…

  805. King C Says:

    @ Chris in WA

    Exactly!
    Where oh where is reality and all the other doom and gloomers!

  806. BucsFanInDFW Says:

    Nifty run by Wilson. Kid is quick!

  807. unbelievable Says:

    Dammit Dot!

  808. Bird Says:

    This offense is best we’ve had.

  809. rrsrq Says:

    Yeas!

  810. lurker Says:

    Sweeeeeet

  813. lurker Says:

  814. VaTom Says:

    Keep it together Dot.

  815. BuccoDav Says:

    Holy crap… They are making this look easy.

  816. Bird Says:

    What the heck

    Domination boys

    All you haters get out

  817. Cannon Says:

    BOOM

  818. rrsrq Says:

    Don’t it feel good, Bucs fans

  819. Rod Munch Says:

    Fitz, can you please throw a TD to OJ for me, and get Barber something as well. Thanks bud!

  820. Dirty Bucs Says:

    These Mofos don’t want none!

  821. King C Says:

    Good call by the refs on DeSean
    See that’s how it goes when you’re winning instead of whining

  822. unbelievable Says:

    LETS F@CKIN GO!!

  823. Mike Evans Goat Says:

    I FLUCKIN LOVE IT!!!!!

  824. ATrain Says:

    That is awesome

    He can hit DJax and it shows it makes a BIG difference in the game

  825. Rod Munch Says:

    This is literally the best game of Fitz life, wow! Good for him.

  826. Bird Says:

    Where is reality ?

  827. King C Says:

    This is an ASS Whooping boys!!!

  828. lurker Says:

    wow but wow

    this is crazy awesome!

  829. jugheadfla Says:

    dagger

  830. Trench War Says:

    If DJax gets 750 total yards this season I stand to make a decent return on my bet. ..thanks JBF for the recommendation

  831. Cannon Says:

    Fitzpatrick is on FIRE

  832. BuccoDav Says:

    The offensive line has got to be the MVP of this game. Fitz is playing great but without that kind of time, you can’t make those plays.

  833. Daddylonglegs78 Says:

    It’s a great day to be a Buccaneer!!!!!!

  834. Buccaneer Bonzai Says:

    Team record in scoring, baby!!!!

  835. jmarkbuc Says:

    FITZMAGIC!!!

  836. Tc Says:

    Enjoy this one fellas!

  837. ATrain Says:

    Winston hasn’t done that in a game

  838. Colonel Angus Says:

    Dude, if Fitz keeps playing like this, Jamies will holding the clipboard. Hear the silence so loud!

  839. mark2001 Says:

    If Fitz plays like this another two games, how do you bench him?

  840. lurker Says:

    doubled up the saints

  841. Ftmyersbuc Says:

    Ok monken, welcome to your new PERMENANT role as the off playmaker

  842. Matts17 Says:

    Fitz is a surgeon today. Best performance by a Buc QB in a really long time.

  843. Bunch of Bitches Says:

    Am i dreaming?

  844. FR Says:

    THATS A QB

  845. Buc believer Says:

    Wow!!! F you Saints!!

  846. Bird Says:

    Fitz is an assassin today

  847. Couch Fan Says:

    Fitz is on point today. I dont think hes going to keep the starting job but if he keeps playing like this, hes gonna make it hard for them to keep him off the field. His passes are perfect today.

  848. rrsrq Says:

    I do not want to hear none of those national pundits who said what they said about this game. They don’t know about us, we knew our ffensive has this kind of potential. The will forget about O.J. and Brate, then we will kill him with the TE duo

  849. BucsFanInDFW Says:

    Is this a real game? I fell like I am watching Madden

  850. BritBuc Says:

    Hows that Survivor Pick lock now Florio?!!!!+

  851. Capt. Blighe Says:

    It is easy when you can hit our talented WR’s IN STRIDE ! Sadly 3 cant.

  852. Defense Rules Says:

    DJax is running those deep routes with renewed enthusiasm it looks like. And Fitz is putting the ball right on the money. This is what a fun game looks like.

  853. Trench War Says:

    I need Barber to get some rushing TD’s as well

  854. Destinjohnny Says:

    Fitz audibles have been next level

  855. jugheadfla Says:

    easy answer gentlemen, you don’t bench him……Like Koetter said, no guarantee JW gets his job back

  856. TBTeddy Says:

    Haha we out here embarrassing the saints and I’m loving every minute of it

  857. TampaTown Says:

    Put in RG4!!!’

  858. Cannon Says:

    We’re getting closer to my goal of 60 points…

  859. PSLBob Says:

    Unbelievable!

  860. Walkergodeep Says:

    Do you believe in magic

  861. Dooshlarue Says:

    Dear Jameis
    Forget calling…… you better drive on over to Webster’s.
    He gonna need some hugs

    Take an Uber

  862. lurker Says:

    the whole team is playing great. when one side is off, the other sixde makes plays.

    love the deep ball accuracy, though

  863. King C Says:

    See that roughing call on Fitzpatrick, if that went against us how many whiners would be saying it’s rigged and blah blah blah
    Let this game be a lesson
    Something tells me the whining-about-the-refs losers will be back next week tho because they never seem to learn

  864. Buccaneer Bonzai Says:

    Eagles will be an easier game. They lost half their players. Two to us!

    11-5 here we come!

  865. FR Says:

    ACCURACY ACCURACY ACCURACY

  866. FairMinded Says:

    Mind blown

  867. Dirty Bucs Says:

    Monken, Buddy, don’t ever stop!

  868. XpfcWintergreen2 Says:

    OK guys, keep your foot on their neck!

    _______________
    Go Bucs!!!!! No Excuses!!! … and by the way, Wreak havoc!

  869. BROCKTACULAR Says:

    MONK BE CALLIN’ DEM PLAYS!!!!!!

  870. TheShaz Says:

    48 freaking points?

    The Bucs don’t drop 48 points

    What in the hell is this?

  871. jmarkbuc Says:

    Pretty Good Idea, Monken calling plays

  872. Ftmyersbuc Says:

    If monken does this all year, he will be gone as a new hc somewhere

  873. Alvin Scissors Harper Says:

    Will the last person to leave the Stuperdome, please pick up all the empty beer cups and turn the GD lights off!

  874. unbelievable Says:

    @BuccoDav

    100%. Offensive line looks way better today than it did last year in both run blocking and pass protection.

    Everyone is playing hungry. This looks like a team that actually wants it.

  875. King C Says:

    It’s so hard for Rod Munch to say something positive about Fitz …
    It’s Ok Rod you can be positive LOL

  876. K_Bassuka Says:

    Look at trash man! Let’s go Bucs!

  877. SpaceCoastJustin Says:

    Oh my… I bet Vegas will be rethinking the bucs point spread next week.

  878. Bird Says:

    Wow wow wow

  879. Im tired and 87 is right Says:

    I love Jameis but I can say this much if he continues this way we go with the leprechaun! I garuntee you Jameis will be ok with it as well. It’s like the price is right yodeling guy going to the top of the mountain before falling off to find out you win a car. You go with what works! Go Bucs!

  880. Geno Says:

    Best thing about this thread today.

    No Kobefaker!

  881. Nprbuc Says:

    Fits for HOF! One bad throw all day. Great decisions on where to go with the ball, when to tuck and run. For an “old arm” he is throwing darts with touch. Kinda hope the “realist” and his buddies are watching. Hope they also bet the house against our Bucs. Jamie’s who?

  882. BigMacAttack Says:

    Bangarang!!!
    Where did this team come from. Unreal

  883. Bunch of Bitches Says:

    Run clock run. Not comfortable yet

  884. Bird Says:

    Cmon.

    Get up Evans. We need you

  885. lurker Says:

    dangit can brees sling the rock

  886. ATrain Says:

    What was that call

  887. Bird Says:

    Terrible call

    What was he supposed to do. He didn’t hit in head

  888. Trench War Says:

    another BS call

  889. rrsrq Says:

    Terrible call, I get it in real time, but he just pushed him

  890. Buc Neckid Says:

    Replay shows that was a BS Call

  891. Cannon Says:

    Oh come on, he was going for the ball

  892. ATrain Says:

    Holding

  893. jugheadfla Says:

    wow….what a terrible call

  894. unbelievable Says:

    Why is that a flag? That was his shoulder.

    Total BS

  895. Rod Munch Says:

    WHAT THE %@#@#@#@# WAS THAT !@$@$@# CALL

    Holy @$#@$@, this is the garbage calls you get in a league where you have men prancing around on the sidelines as a cheerleader. That wasn’t even remotely close to a PF.

    Go @$@#@# yourself you piece of 2$@#@# refs.

  896. Buc Neckid Says:

    Refs Suck

  897. lurker Says:

    what call was that?

  898. rrsrq Says:

    Need a sack

  899. AmericasEnabler Says:

    Usual 4th quarter defense fade. Not good.

  900. Trench War Says:

    so Brees says where’s the flag and then they threw a flag more BS

  901. ATrain Says:

    What the

    Refs in the game again

  902. Bird Says:

    Vegas on line with refs

  903. BuccoDav Says:

    better flag those 2 for “gang” tackling…

  904. ATrain Says:

    Vegas is pissed

    Holding every play

  905. scholty Says:

    Here come the refs …. again!

  906. Buc Neckid Says:

    Time to hit Brees

  907. Cannon Says:

    Come on and, stay disciplined

  908. lurker Says:

    seriously defense?

  909. BROCKTACULAR Says:

    damn refs they’re trying to get that spread number back

  910. Buc Neckid Says:

    Brees got crushed on that one

  911. unbelievable Says:

    At least they laid a hit on Brees that play

  912. Easy Says:

    Hope VHIII didn’t dislocate his finger

  913. unbelievable Says:

    Spawn!

  914. VaTom Says:

    I know there’s holding every play. But dang. They’re mugging our D

  915. Matts17 Says:

    League is run by a bunch of lawyers on Park Ave not football people. These awful roughing calls are destroying this league.

  916. rrsrq Says:

    Dang

  917. Buc Neckid Says:

    Stinger?

  918. Rod Munch Says:

    That looks more like a shoulder. Ugh.

  919. Bird Says:

    Great read

    Man. Guys going down. Sucks

  920. Tc Says:

    Hargreaves is like glass

  921. Buc Neckid Says:

    Damn…
    He was having a Good Day

  922. lurker Says:

    hes being held up…concussion?

  923. rrsrq Says:

    Run clock run

  924. Hawk Says:

    Looks like Fitz has put the team on his back, and run them into the end zone.
    A QB can either complain that his defense is allowing the other team to score too much, or he can make it a point to just score more.

  925. lurker Says:

    hold

  926. unbelievable Says:

    Can’t believe we’ve got our #1 and #2 corners injured now… VH3 was having a decent game too.

  927. BROCKTACULAR Says:

    Damn shoulder. Kid was ballin today

  928. Cannon Says:

    Crap… Hargreaves is out

  929. AmericasEnabler Says:

    Hey Ira, sacks don’t matter!? JPP missed and what did Brees do?!

  930. Cannon Says:

    Awwwwwwww… why you gotta miss that sack!

  931. Matts17 Says:

    JPP has done nothing and then fans on an easy sack.

  932. Rod Munch Says:

    Who had Brees in the backfield and just ran by him? Was that Conte? Didn’t see.

  933. unbelievable Says:

    Brees has slipped away from at least 3 would-be sacks today.

    Defense didn’t even try to stop that run.

  934. lurker Says:

    freakin saints
    need to wrap brees up

  935. TheShaz Says:

    Getting pressure on the QB

    Getting hands on the QB

    But not getting the QB on the ground

  936. lambchop Says:

    This is unreal. Like pinch me already.

  937. scholty Says:

    Why is he not jumping into the crowd like he did in the first half? Hmnnn….

  938. Cannon Says:

    So now we ha e Ryan Smith and two rookies to hold it down for the rest of the game

  939. BROCKTACULAR Says:

    just walked in TWICE!!!

  940. Trench War Says:

    thank you refs ..@ssholes

  941. Bird Says:

    Who missed the sack ?

  942. Matts17 Says:

    That was pathetic. Team is winning in spite of this disgraceful defense.

  943. Alvin Scissors Harper Says:

    There could only be 1 team in football that could ever blow a 24 point lead with less than a quarter to go. Come on boys, need more points I guess.

  944. VaTom Says:

    How do. You. Miss the sack?

  945. The Real Drew Says:

    Better realize you gotta win with offense

  946. rrsrq Says:

    We definitely need to run some time off the clock and get a score

  947. lurker Says:

    what defense was that?

    ugh, make it harder

  948. unbelievable Says:

    The middle couldn’t be more open.

    Why was JPP in the endzone?

  949. lurker Says:

    let’s go offense

  950. Rod Munch Says:

    Was that JPP who did that? Really? I would have swore it was a white guy who blitzed. If you’re right I must have CTE.

  951. scholty Says:

    We need to have a long scoring drive now!

  952. VaTom Says:

    The young guys (the 2’s) aren’t disciplined. Theyre not taking this seriously.

  953. R.O. Says:

    If the Defense just plays like 25th best instead of worst. We may be able to hold on.

  954. Buc believer Says:

    C’mon guys let’s close this out!

  955. Cannon Says:

    Let’s get another score

  956. BROCKTACULAR Says:

    Cmon!!!! DON”T PULL AN ATLANTA!!!!!!!!!

  957. Tc Says:

    Why is it always like yogi beara said “ it ain’t over till it’s over” with the Bucs

  958. Sweeptheleg Says:

    Fire mike smith immediately

  959. Trench War Says:

    The only way the Saints win is if the refs steal it away from the Bucs

  960. Captain Obvious Says:

    We Need More Points…

  961. Rod Munch Says:

    As I said earlier, I’m not comfortable with this lead until we’re up by 20+ with less than 2 mins left. The Saints are going to continue to score. But, good news, Dirk didn’t shut it down last offensive series.

  962. VaTom Says:

    I don’t mean the rookies on the corners. The ding dongs like Smith.

  963. lurker Says:

    i believe that we will win

  964. King C Says:

    Injuries happen …it’s pretty much a guarantee

  965. Tc Says:

    Great protection for futz today

  966. Chris in WA Says:

    Best defense is a good offense.

  967. AmericasEnabler Says:

    Let Payton run this game clocki out!

  968. BuccoDav Says:

    One more score, then ice down Fitz’s shoulder.

  969. BROCKTACULAR Says:

    Keep it on the ground!!

  970. Rod Munch Says:

    Uh oh… Dirk has now done it, he’s shut down the offense.

    This is what I feared.

  971. lurker Says:

    no 3 and outs for us, please

  972. Captain Obvious Says:

    As Much as I cannot stand to see Sean Payton Pouting on the Sidelines,
    Keep Showing it… It means he’s Losing

  973. Rod Munch Says:

    Nevermind, I take it back!

    Sorry to have doubted you Dirk.

  974. BROCKTACULAR Says:

    JACKSON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

  975. Sweeptheleg Says:

    My god. Can anyone else get hurt today

  976. Matts17 Says:

    Another super throw Fitz.

  977. Colonel Angus Says:

    Damn, D Jax got knocked out! Made that catch though.

  978. lurker Says:

    jackson hurt

  979. rrsrq Says:

    what is this game gonna cost us with injuries

  980. Tc Says:

    People have matchup problems with our receivers

  981. Bird Says:

    Man We got some guys going down left and right

  982. Rick Says:

    Please take Jackson out already…

  983. King C Says:

    A better throw and thats another TD lol

  984. Rod Munch Says:

    I’m OK with trying to run out the clock once you’re inside of about 6 mins… we’re almost there.

  985. Cannon Says:

    I hope #11 is ok. Nice aggressive offense

  986. donuts Says:

    ah man that was not good. football to the gut

  987. Dirty Bucs Says:

    The way he hit, is it a concussion? Looks like it.

  988. Walkergodeep Says:

    I don’t wont to lose our players for 1 win

  989. lurker Says:

    scary he’s still down

  990. BROCKTACULAR Says:

    OH SH*T

  991. Bird Says:

    Concussion. Face hit turf

  992. scholty Says:

    Looks like a collarbone….

  993. lurker Says:

    helmet hit ground hard as hands were wrapped up

  994. Rod Munch Says:

    In DJax case, to me, that looks like a stinger. Hope that’s all it is. Not sure obviously.

  995. lurker Says:

    concussion protocol

  996. ATrain Says:

    Pray DJaxs is ok

  997. AmericasEnabler Says:

    pleas get 51 points bois set that record!

  998. SpaceCoastJustin Says:

    Damn… V Jax look like her got knocked out when her hit the ground. Great catch.. hope he is ok..

  999. Rod Munch Says:

    Yeah could be concussion, he looks fine now, put him back out there.

  1000. Dooshlarue Says:

    Good… D Jax is running off.

  1001. Cannon Says:

    Career high yards for Fitz…

  1002. Captain Obvious Says:

    Knocked out

  1003. rrsrq Says:

    Why are we not running behind Marpet/Smith

  1004. Bird Says:

    They are trying to get into tent and he didn’t want to. Go

  1005. Captain Obvious Says:

    Concussion Protocol

  1006. Rod Munch Says:

    Yeah this is the best game in Fitz’s life, by far, heck it might be the best game by a QB in Bucs history. This is a historic event. Good for him!

  1007. Cannon Says:

    Nice run by Barber

  1008. Ryan T. Says:

    Here is being a Bucs fan in a nutshell: The Bucs are winning 48-32 in the fourth quarter… … …and I’m STILL scared they’ll lose! Being a Bucs fan, man, is a f~cking abusive relationship!

  1009. lurker Says:

    dang, he was concussed.
    he is withit now, but was unsure where he was earlier

  1010. Buc Neckid Says:

    I think that all you hear now cheering in the Supeerdome when its third down,
    is BUCS Fans

  1011. Ftmyersbuc Says:

    Go ahead desean take the rest of the afternoon off bud.

  1012. King C Says:

    in that SuperBowl loss to NE, Atlanta probably would have won if they were more conservative and allowed the game clock to run to 1 or 2 before snapping …. just saying

  1013. NJBucsFan Says:

    Loving Ryan Fitzchise!!!

  1014. rrsrq Says:

    Shouldn’t we feel like this is over, up 16 with 5 minutes left, but we don’t

  1015. XpfcWintergreen2 Says:

    Decent game management, so far!

    _____________
    Go Bucs!!! No Excuses!

  1016. Bird Says:

    Love this team

    Fitzpatrick is straight up balling. It’s funny the defense not so good today. But Fitzpatrick put team on back. 3 TD s over 35 yards

    People always blamed defense to defend Jameis. It’s one game but yes good qb play can overcome other weaknesses

  1017. Cannon Says:

    Need another touchdown. Because… reasons…

  1018. Architek Says:

    Monken is showing out man!

  1019. TampaTown Says:

    @ Ryan T:
    Perfectly said!

  1020. lurker Says:

    need points, at least 3

  1021. The Real Drew Says:

    OK, well I’m pretty proud of this team. Guys are playing hard. Better execution than in past.

  1022. King C Says:

    Fitz has 50 points in my two-QB league… If only I started him

  1023. Cannon Says:

    1 punt today…

  1024. AmericasEnabler Says:

    lurker Says:
    September 9th, 2018 at 3:58 pm
    dang, he was concussed.
    he is withit now, but was unsure where he was earlier

    ^^^Not a good lip reader but I swear he said, “I got knocked out”

  1025. Bird Says:

    Gotta make this

  1026. ATrain Says:

    I think if Fitz keeps this up Winston watches fourth week

  1027. lurker Says:

    let’s go cantanzaro

  1028. Bird Says:

    Figured. Pressure on and he misses.

  1029. Sweeptheleg Says:

    Good lord. Pathetic.

  1030. rrsrq Says:

    That look like it got deflected

  1031. Cannon Says:

    Damn it…

  1032. Buc Neckid Says:

    Blocked a Little…

  1033. Rod Munch Says:

    Lets win the game before we worry about week 4.

  1034. lambchop Says:

    Winston can sit the whole season. Fitzpatrick has got this system down and Todd Monken knows how to utilize the talent. Seriously, this is unreal.

  1035. lurker Says:

    freaking kickers

  1036. Rod Munch Says:

    Saints are down by 2 TDs… this isn’t over yet.

  1037. lurker Says:

    rays win!

  1038. Tc Says:

    Where is jpp and Noah Spence – they know they (the saints) have to pass – no production

  1039. Sweeptheleg Says:

    I can’t stand kickers

  1040. Buc Neckid Says:

    The BUCS Prevent a Win Defense in effect here

  1041. Cannon Says:

    Let’s go D. Step it up.

  1042. mark2001 Says:

    Same old Bucs on that one. Now is the time for the D to step up, show we are a different team than last year, and put it on Brees.

  1043. TBTeddy Says:

    We still can’t kick FGs wtf is going on?

  1044. lurker Says:

    and a short field

  1045. Ftmyersbuc Says:

    Omfg

  1046. Matts17 Says:

    Uh ho.

  1047. Cannon Says:

    Jesus D… let’s at least slow them down

  1048. BROCKTACULAR Says:

    SOFT ASSED DEFENSE

  1049. Rod Munch Says:

    Mike Smith is doing his thing.

  1050. Walkergodeep Says:

    Play man defense

  1051. Dirty Bucs Says:

    I hate this defense.

  1052. rrsrq Says:

    Ya might wanna blitz

  1053. lambchop Says:

    OMG, if this is going to come down to the defense. We are screwed.

  1054. Rod Munch Says:

    Prevent defense, or just Mike Smith’s normal defense? Who knows.

  1055. Buc Neckid Says:

    No Pass Rush
    All day to throw

  1056. lurker Says:

    no pressure.
    is this a prevent?

  1057. Bird Says:

    Kamara has filthy stats today

  1058. The Real Drew Says:

    Desean Jackson played his heart out.

  1059. Trench War Says:

    good grief

  1060. Sweeptheleg Says:

    Can we release the kicker before the game is over?

  1061. Colonel Angus Says:

    Butthole is a little clinched right now.

  1062. Cannon Says:

    Didn’t even slow them down.

  1063. Buc Neckid Says:

    Wow
    This is a Game again

  1064. Alvin Scissors Harper Says:

    Are you kidding me??? Like a knife through melted butter. Incredible!

  1065. BuccoDav Says:

    BS. L tackle moved.

  1066. Cannon Says:

    And JPP with the offsides.

  1067. Buccaneer Bonzai Says:

    Let them score too fast. They have to go for two.

  1068. lurker Says:

    wtf

  1069. Walkergodeep Says:

    What is Mike Smith doing

  1070. Rod Munch Says:

    BTW guys, this is why you don’t let off the gas pedal against Drew Brees on the road. You don’t do things like play for a FG on 3rd and 4, you try to win the game.

    That was completely pitiful.

    Have to stop them on the 2pt conversion. Have to.

  1071. scholty Says:

    Are you kidding me???? Dang prevent defense!

  1072. Matts17 Says:

    Laughable. FU Smith. He should be fired NOW!

  1073. Defense Rules Says:

    YGBSM … if I see one more prevent defense I think I’ll throw up. Please don’t let us fall apart at the end of the game.

  1074. VaTom Says:

    The Bucs dont care

  1075. Cannon Says:

    Need to stop this conversion.

  1076. lurker Says:

    hold here

  1077. aj Says:

    Make that kick and it is over. I cannot believe this.

  1078. Sweeptheleg Says:

    It’s literally pathetic how bad this defense is.

  1079. Rod Munch Says:

    This is what you get when the run the clock out crowd has their say.

  1080. Dirty Bucs Says:

    Davis has been absolutely beaten up all game. Poor kid.

  1081. lurker Says:

    too easy

  1082. Buc Neckid Says:

    Oh what fun it is to be a BUCS Fan… NOT!!

  1083. Walkergodeep Says:

    Mike Smith will lose us to many games

  1084. AmericasEnabler Says:

    Dfense just disappears. It’s got to be a mental thing to do this consistently year in and year out.

  1085. ATrain Says:

    Can we not get any calls

    Sure seems like the NFL doesn’t want the Bucs to win

  1086. Buccaneer Bonzai Says:

    At best, they can tie before clock runs out. I hate prevent defense.

  1087. lambchop Says:

    Koetter can use this to fire his buddy Mike Smith. Worst D ever.

  1088. Sweeptheleg Says:

    24 point lead gone in just a few minutes

  1089. lurker Says:

    24 point lead in 4th

  1090. rrsrq Says:

    Need two first downs

  1091. Matts17 Says:

    How can Koetter and Licht allow this to continue?

  1092. Defense Rules Says:

    Carlton Davis didn’t look all that good on that 2-pt conversion. He had to know what was coming.

  1093. unbelievable Says:

    Ah, there’s that Bucs defense we’ve come to know and loath.

  1094. Mike Evans Goat Says:

    All because the stupid FLUCKIN kicker

  1095. lurker Says:

    need some first downs!

  1096. Destinjohnny Says:

    McCoy is so out of shape

  1097. Buc Neckid Says:

    Holding too

  1098. lambchop Says:

    Can we run this out? We need at least 2 first downs to ice it?

  1099. Rod Munch Says:

    There’s the Dirk I know!

    Everyone knows it’s going to be a run up the middle and you you run it anyways. That’s shows them!

    Great job Dirk!

  1100. JohnBoy Says:

    This is the Falcons v the Patriots level meltdown. It’s over – Bucs will lose in OT.

  1101. Sweeptheleg Says:

    Dirk must be calling plays now.

    Here comes the predictable collapse

  1102. Dirty Bucs Says:

    The fact that we are sweating this game at this point is ridiculous.

  1103. Trench War Says:

    so they blitz the crap out of us and we rush 4

  1104. ATrain Says:

    I’ve made my point

    When McCoy got into the backfield the defense was on
    Now he takes a rest

    My Point about GMC he is good not Great

  1105. King C Says:

    It doesn’t take long for this forum turn negative.. Even with mammoth effort by our offense today
    I’ll say it

    Let’s go Bucs.. Finish this win!

  1106. Rod Munch Says:

    Another run up the middle for Dirk!

    He’s back in charge, saying we’ll use the defense to protect this lead, just don’t do anything stupid!

    Coaching scared!

  1107. unbelievable Says:

    And we still don’t have a kicker who can make 40+ yard FGs.

    Was about to say at least our offense looks great…

  1108. AmericasEnabler Says:

    YES!!! FITZY!!!!

  1109. Defense Rules Says:

    These are Koetter’s calls all the way … 5 straight runs with the game on the line? Bullcrap. Koetter’s gone turtle.

  1110. Bird Says:

    Huge play

  1111. rrsrq Says:

    FitzMagic

  1112. AmericasEnabler Says:

    Mike Smith has to go. It’s over Mike.

  1113. lurker Says:

    OMG
    Fitz for bucs MVP

  1114. unbelievable Says:

    Run Fitz Run!

  1115. Buccaneer Bonzai Says:

    Fitz might have just won the game.

  1116. mark2001 Says:

    A collapse can’t happen. This can’t happen to this team. It would be no moral victory…not positives…I don’t believe it will happen.

  1117. Sweeptheleg Says:

    I hate Dirk Koetter.

    And whatever kicker is on our team

  1118. lambchop Says:

    Fitzy putting the entire team on his back!

  1119. Ftmyersbuc Says:

    They are koetter calls I seen him with his sheet calling them

  1120. Architek Says:

    Why is this defense so earthly soft???

  1121. Tc Says:

    It’s never over till it’s over – ask Atlanta

  1122. Rod Munch Says:

    Nice play by Fitz there! Huge!

    OK so now you get three runs up the middle for -1 yards and punt the ball, you’re giving it back to Brees, with no timeouts and about what, 15 seconds? Can Mike Smith’s defense hold for 15 seconds? That’s gonna be tough.

    Lets get it done.

  1123. Bucs fan #7423 Says:

    Ryan Fitzpatrick our lord and savior!!!!!!!!! F* this sorry as$ defense. Fire Mike Smith!!!!!

  1124. XpfcWintergreen2 Says:

    Perfecto, Sir Ryan!

    ______________
    Go Bucs!!!!!

  1125. lurker Says:

    3 kneel, 120 seconds off clock

  1126. Ftmyersbuc Says:

    #firesmitty

  1127. Trench War Says:

    QB controversy? at least today?

  1128. Matts17 Says:

    Fitz may have saved Smith’s worthless ass and his garbage D line.

  1129. Buc Neckid Says:

    Fitz… More Rushing Yards than Kamara

  1130. AmericasEnabler Says:

    Defense Rules Says:
    September 9th, 2018 at 4:11 pm
    These are Koetter’s calls all the way … 5 straight runs with the game on the line? Bullcrap. Koetter’s gone turtle.

    That was a good call. He knows that defense is garbage. Got to take as much time off the clock and force them to use their timeouts rather than take your chances and turn the ball over.

  1131. lurker Says:

    no penalties on punt and no big returns

  1132. Buccaneer Bonzai Says:

    Koetter isn’t calling the offense, Defense Rules. More likely, Monken playing it safe his first time calling plays.

  1133. NJBucsFan Says:

    What happened? I have to watch on the ESPN game cast app

  1134. unbelievable Says:

    Well I think that should do it.

    Saints have no timeouts.

    Love what I saw from the offense for the most part.

    Defense had some moments, but def still a work in progress. Missed tackles, inconsistent pressure, etc.

    ALso, why play prevent D if you cant’ actually prevent anything? Mind as well keep bringing the pressure Mike Smith. Figure it out already, what you did the last 2 years hasn’t worked!

  1135. Jmarkbuc Says:

    time for the OJ play

  1136. Walkergodeep Says:

    I hate our defense this is sad the you Fitz for this awesome performance

  1137. Im tired and 87 is right Says:

    Fire Mike Smith! What a joke!

  1138. Alvin Scissors Harper Says:

    How do you possibly let a team back in the game when you are leading 48-24 with about 11 minutes to go?

  1139. ATrain Says:

    Conspiracy

    I Know

    But Refs are in this game Bucs Refs not calling Holding on the Saints

  1140. Bird Says:

    Koetter ain’t calling anything.

    All you haters suck it

  1141. Steven007 Says:

    Jesus… what a bunch of negative Nancy’s.

  1142. Buc Neckid Says:

    That Third Down pass to Jackson was not Turtle

  1143. Buccaneer Bonzai Says:

    We win!!!!!!!!!

  1144. Im tired and 87 is right Says:

    If it wasn’t for Monken we would be losing by a margin!

  1145. Alvin Scissors Harper Says:

    Buc win and I played Brees in my fantasy league. Good day for Alvin! I just hope we don’t have too many guys who can’t play next week

  1146. Rod Munch Says:

    I was thinking there was a 35 set clock, wow, how did I get that wrong?

    Anyways, wow… it’s over. This is amazing!

  1147. BuccoDav Says:

    Wow!

  1148. Steven007 Says:

    Game. Over.

  1149. Bird Says:

    Win win win

    The posters on this site are a joke
    Negative babies

  1150. lurker Says:

    haha
    2:00 is 120 seconds

  1151. King C Says:

    Some people on this forum would complain if the Bucs won 60-10

  1152. Buc Neckid Says:

    Game Over

  1153. Tc Says:

    Perfect game for fitz but remember all the qbs were good in preseason

  1154. unbelievable Says:

    All that said… 1-0 baby!

  1155. Buc Neckid Says:

    Do the Math Payton… YOU JUST LOST

  1156. MadMax Says:

    Great win Bucs!!!!!!!!

  1157. Colonel Angus Says:

    Not bad for the biggest underdog of the week.

  1158. lurker Says:

    WHHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

    BUCS WIN!

  1159. Rod Munch Says:

    We did, just like I said last night in my prediction, Bucs 48, Saints 40 – exactly like I drew it up! I knew it! Praise me fellas, praise me!!!!

  1160. NJBucsFan Says:

    Ryan Fitzchise!!!

  1161. Bird Says:

    Haha

    The negative peeps on this site are a joke

  1162. VaTom Says:

    Did we really win? Holy schlitz.

  1163. SB Says:

    0 and 3 My ARSE!!!!!!!!!!
    1 and 0 BABY!!!!!!

  1164. Buccaneer Bonzai Says:

    Alvin Scissors Harper, Drew Brees. Nuff said.

    Bottom line: we won one of the first three games. Anything else over the next 2 weeks is icing.

  1165. lurker Says:

    i believed that we would win

    scary though

  1166. BuccoDav Says:

    I guess we aren’t going 0-3 to start

  1167. VaTom Says:

    Are there any star players left healthy? OMG.

  1168. Rod Munch Says:

    What a difference Dirk NOT calling the plays makes. HUGE. Winston running this offense is going to be amazing!

  1169. Defense Rules Says:

    Entire Bucs’ team needs to thank Ryan Fitzpatrick for that win. That last run to pick up the first down was ALL him.

  1170. BROCKTACULAR Says:

    woulda had the record if our kicker wouldntve missed

  1171. RODNEY J ALLEN Says:

    What yall whiney fake fans gonna biatch about today lmmfao

  1172. lambchop Says:

    This defense needs serious help in a hurry. We were exposed badly. Fire Mike Smith and get some veteran corners. D-Line will get it together hopefully once Vea comes in.

    Yeah, blame the kicker for not converting the last field goal when the ball was tipped. Yup definitely the kickers fault for allowing the defender to get through the line. Jeesh.

    Bucs are going to the Super Bowl!! What a joke you Superfans such a joke y’all don’t live in reality.

    Hopefully, Winston learns more than one thing from watchinging this game (like a fan, maybe.)

    No Excuses! Go Bucs!!!!

    Waa … hooooo!!

  1179. Defense Rules Says:

    @Rod Munch … “Winston running this offense is going to be amazing!” Anyone who believes that Jameis could’ve done better than Fitz did today is delusional. Check the stats Rod.

  1180. Bobby Says:

    Amazing offensive display. Defensively….we….ahh…great offensive game!

  1181. SB Says:

    Also……………what Bonzai said!!!

  1182. Doctor Stroud Says:

    Bucs win! All is right in the world again…until the Bucs lose.

    Looking forward to celebrating a Bucs victory with a Jai Alai IPA from Cigar City Brewery! #Fitzweapons

    I hate…no HATE the Cowboys and I’m normally not really a hater.

    However today I have to root for them. If they win…it’s the Bucs all alone in first place of the NFC South.

    Yeah lots of games left but can we enjoy the moment?

  1185. Rod Munch Says:

    Defense Rules – Fitz’s problem his entire career has been performing when he doesn’t have perfect dome like conditions. Hopefully he gets good weather the next two weeks. Anywho Fitz had a career day, literally the best day by a Bucs QB ever, if you think Fitz will do this every week, you’re nuts. If he does, well he’s a HOFer and you play him until his beard falls off.

    Anyways, as I said, Winston playing in this offense will be amazing.

  1186. SB Says:

    @SPBF. I Rarely root for the Cowboys as well. I will today tho.

  1187. orlbucfan Says:

    Har-har-har, Bucs Offense starting to flower. I have been watching this develop for 3 seasons. Shame I don’t gamble cos I would have cleaned up! Chris Godwin is going to be giving opposing Ds nightmares. Yee-Haw! GO MIGHTY BUCS!!

  1188. SB Says:

    @Rod. FItz has Never had this group of Receivers and has never had the entire off season getting reps as the starter with a group like this. Pile on that he is a Genius and you get good results on game day

  1189. lambchop Says:

    @Rod Munch,

    JW forcing balls scares me. If Fitz doesn’t lose games, it’s his team till he regresses. But, I have a feeling that Monken knows how to use the weapons unlike Kleless Koetter. And Mike Smith – for $hit’s sake FIRE him yesterday!!!

  1190. Tc Says:

    Bucs are in 1st place!

  1191. Rod Munch Says:

    Me saying I can’t wait to see JW in this offense isn’t an indictment on Fitz, he played fantastic today, and no JW wouldn’t have been better. Those are two unrelated pointed. If Fitz can do this outdoors, you play him until he can’t do it, no issues there. But I want to see JW in this offense where every 2nd down isn’t 2nd and 9 after a 1 yard run up the gut for the entire first half. Just mixing things up and not being ultra predictable will be huge for everyone.

    Also if you’re worried about Jameis being aggressive… did you watch the game today? When your defense is this bad, you have to play aggressive, and Fitz was really agressive today.

  1192. lambchop Says:

    Fitz being aggressive is a WHOLE LOT different that JW being aggressive.

  1193. Tc Says:

    Great play calling and o line played well

  1194. GP Says:

    Dr Stroud

    Try an “invasion”

  1195. mark2001 Says:

    Rod…how many interceptions did Fitz have? That meant the difference between success and failure. And hard to believe Jameis wouldn’t have thrown at least one. Not saying Jameis won’t be great…but can’t take anything from Fitz on this one.

  1196. Rod Munch Says:

    lambchop = See Favre, Brett.

  1197. Rod Munch Says:

    mark2001 – Fitz literally had the best game of his life and probably the best game in the history of the team, and that’s your bar? LOL! Get a grip people. Steve DeBerg had 333 yards and 5 TDs against the Falcons on opening day in 1987, did he suddenly become a HOF’er overnight after a career of some success but a lot of sitting on the bench? You guys need to have a little something called perspective. Fitz had a great day and it’s just about assured he’ll never ever have a game this good again, if he does, well then great, you play him until his arm literally falls off his body. But if you think this is the new bar for week in and week out play, you’re truly a moron.

  1198. passthebuc Says:

    48-40 very low scoring basketball game.

  1199. mark2001 Says:

    Come on Rod…one game at a time. Fitz did everything required to win this game. And frankly, until the D steps up. every game is likely to be a barn burner. Can he have another game like this? Who are you or me to say he can’t? I won’t bet on it…but you ride the hot hand. And frankly, I’ll take it. Could Jameis have won this game today based upon the play of the Defense? Frankly, I doubt it.

  1200. Rod Munch Says:

    Would Jameis, on a normal week, beat the best QB performance in the history of the team and the best performance in the life of Fitz. LOL!

    In fact 99 out 100 times Fitz doesn’t play as well as Fitz did today.

    But he had a great game and I AGREE with you, you play Fitz if he stays how, there’s no reason why. But he won’t stay hot for 16 games, and as such I can’t wait to see Winston in this offense. It’s a basic concept.

    Oh, and if I’m wrong, if Fitz is going out, hitting nearly every single play and not misfiring, and has time, and is running to get first down, and his WRs are getting wide open, and he can do that for most of the year, then amazing, I’ll be more than happy to be wrong when I said Fitz can’t have a new career day every week. I in fact would love that to be the case, would love it.

  1201. Im tired and 87 is right Says:

    Joe did you just hit a milestone on Bucs hits? Go Bucs!

  1202. mark2001 Says:

    Frankly, I don’t expect Fitz to pay that well. But he has had some good games on some really bad offensive teams. This team has some real offensive weapons….and really… could Jameis have hit D. Jackson like Fitz did today? I doubt it, but hope we see that when he comes back and starts.

  1203. Rod Munch Says:

    mark2001 – Winston played like 3 games with D-Jax before he hurt his shoulder, and in those 3 games he hit D-Jax for at least one longer TD in the Vikings game when he put it in the perfect place. Stop with your revisionist history nonsense. Fitz has been a good QB at times, and then he chokes when it matters, he also has a career of playing well in good weather, and in domes, and then his noodle arm comes into play when the weather turns bad. The guy had a great day he’ll never repeat, he might have some more good days, and I hope he has at least 2 more very good days over the next 2 weeks, and as I said if he can keep it up, you play him until he doesn’t play well. It will be fun to see what he does next week and if he can do it outside, which is a real concern. I really really hope so since I’ve had the Bucs beating the Eagles all offseason and people thought it was nuts – and that wasn’t to do with Wentz, it was to do with history and the Bucs always playing well. So I hope they get it done since then worse case they’re 2-2 going into the bye, which would be huge.

  1204. SB Says:

    @Rod……….I enjoy most of your takes football wise, however I think you are acting somewhat butthurt here. Fitz has Never had this type of Receiving corps combined with having the entire off season getting pirst team reps.
    He COMPLETELY balled out today. Jameis couldn’t have played that well and never has so far in his career. I am a Staunch JW3 supporter. That said Fitz was the MAN today and if he continues to play the way he did today we have a Very good Problem on our hands.

  1205. Rod Munch Says:

    SB – I don’t disagree with you at all actually, not sure where the disconnect is here. Fitz was fantastic today, not sure why that’s not getting through, my issue is with people that used a historic day to bash Winston. No, Winston most likely would not have had this good of a day, which is true of 99.9% of QBs ever in history, thus the historic performance element. Using this as a bar to judge people by makes no sense since it’s not repeatable, and if I’m wrong, if Fitz has 1500 yards and 15 TDs and 0 turnovers after week 3, well Jesus H Christ, he’s had one of the best stretches at QB in the history of the game. Hope it happens, but we need to be realistic. In any case I’m excited to see what this offense will do next week.

  1206. SB Says:

    Well, I haven’t read any of the comments on the thread today Rod. My bad if I kind of singled you out while catching the end of a 500+ comment thread. If people are bashing JW because Fitz kicked as s then they are idiots. JW was Lights Out in the preseason for sure.
    Today mostly showed how talented the “TEAM” is. When JW comes back, if he doesn’t take us to the playoffs…………….Then I will be concerned.

  1207. Rod Munch Says:

    Oh yeah, the Fitztruthers are on full blast today thinking this is the new norm and Winston sucks. The same morons who would have said to cut Fitz after the first quarter if he threw an INT.

    But yeah, my entire point is I can’t wait to see Winston playing like this – if they keep an open offense like this that is aggressive, it will be awesome.

  1208. DontBucNH8 Says:

    Thats girls Boobs are as Big as this Win!

  1209. lambchop Says:

    @Rod Munch,

    Brett Favre? You’re comparing JW to Brett Favre! C’mon man! First off, Favre won exactly 1 SB and killed so many chances to advance because of his gun slinging ways (Minny vs Taints).

    Secondly, I would rather have a QB (Fitz) who can be aggressive with proper mechanics than someone who thinks he can fall back, spin, and throw off-balance into double and triple coverage. That’s not being aggressive, that’s being arrogant and willfully negligent. You leave winning to chance that way. Fitz took this victory decidedly with good decision making and talent.

    I hope JW learns something while riding the pine. But, we have a need to win now going forward after seeing this type of performance from Fitzy.

    You have to be the only fan, after a surprise victory, to be day dreaming about JW. Stop the nonsense.
