Offense Ties A Record
December 15th, 2019
Caps record-tying drive
Man, the records that were made or tied today.
First, there was Mr. Excitement, America’s Quarterback, Pro Bowler Jameis Winston, setting an NFL passing record.
Then there was Shaq Barrett tying a team sack record.
Then there was Breshad Perriman setting a personal record.
And the Bucs offense got into the mood by setting a record of their own.
After Justin Watson fell backward fielding a punt and grazed the ball as a result, the Bucs actually dodged a bullet when the ball was pushed out at the Bucs-1.
But that really painted the Bucs in a corner.
Never fear, America’s Quarterback is here!
On third-and-six, Jameis completed three straight passes on throws of 11, 53 and 33 yards, the final pass to Scotty Miller for his first NFL touchdown to give the Bucs a 14-0 lead.
And yes, being that it is a 99-yard scoring drive, it tied a Bucs franchise record (as you cannot have a drive of more than 99 yards).
By the way, that was a 99-yard touchdown drive. That’s the longest drive in the Buccaneers’ entire 44-season history.

And Jenna Laine of ESPN documents that is the longest drive the Bucs have had in decades.
Per @ESPNStatsInfo, the Bucs went 99 yards in five plays on Scotty Miller’s TD drive — their first drive of 99 yards over the last 20 seasons.

So on a day when many records were tied or broken, the Bucs offense tied a team record as well.

Has JayMiss proven he doesn’t need Evans or is the sample size to small?

Finally caught one that counted…

Next year they should add one more coach to the already over coached staff… a hamstring coach.
December 15th, 2019 at 6:07 pm
a field goal, and a bad call away from 9-5 and a playoff berth

Records are made to be broken!! That being said, you will still get certain jackass who would want to spout off about meantngless stats!! Nothing’s my meaningless about trying to change the culture!!

I got to have all your love
Night and day
Not just a little part
With all of your heart, sugar
Ninety-nine and a half
Just won’t do
Oh, no, no
Just won’t get it
Don’t be led
In a wrong direction
To start this thing off right
A man need a little love and affection
Yes he do, now
Ninety-nine and a half
Just won’t do
Oh, no, no
Just won’t get it

Incredible we going to dominate next year !! I hope we get a stud Oline or Dline in draft next year
December 15th, 2019 at 6:22 pm
Has anyone heard from The Bucco Realistico?
His consecutive days of silence are matching the amount of question marks and exclamation marks he has ever used!!!!!!!! Or did also broke the record????????????????????????
Lol
Go Bucs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Look Watson did help make an impact today. So everyone contributed.
Even OJ. But overall he was awful today.
December 15th, 2019 at 6:23 pm
No Risk it…….He’s not aboalable right now. He is out searching for answers.
December 15th, 2019 at 6:24 pm
I love the momentum the Bucs have built playing marginal talent. The Texans are good and the QB is dangerous. A win next week would be huge.
December 15th, 2019 at 6:24 pm
Sorry, Scotty, subject “professional” evaluation (same crew that thought) Johnny Manziel) was a first round pick knows what the (heck) they are talking about….Play. Your. Game! F these dip(sticks)! Keep your hammy’s loose, kid!
December 15th, 2019 at 6:31 pm
Look at that little Scotty Miller go.
December 15th, 2019 at 6:32 pm
Did Watson lose that punt in the Sun or was it that wind coming off Lake Michigan?
December 15th, 2019 at 6:38 pm
So for every catch Scotty makes he misses two games ?
December 15th, 2019 at 6:43 pm
Indoor stadium and Lake Michigan is on the other side of the state.
December 15th, 2019 at 6:44 pm
He’s constantly hurt!
December 15th, 2019 at 7:05 pm
Ghost, you forgot to use the sarcasm font.

Part of the idea of getting Winston to resign at a discount has to do with the idea that other teams would be scared of the turnovers…
But how much do you think Gruden would pay for Winston right now? Gruden clearly hates Carr who is such a d-bag he throws it out of bounds on 4th down, at the goalline last week rather than throwing it up for grabs and risking an INT on his stat sheet. But that’s what the anti-Winston crowd would love, a QB who only has 8 INTs on the year, even if it’s with the #24 offense.

Jameis leads the NFL in yardage by at least 200 yards…..
December 15th, 2019 at 7:20 pm
Drew Rosenhaus just peed his pants a little.
December 15th, 2019 at 7:20 pm
@Ghost of Darrell Henderson, Lake Michigan is a very long way from Detroit. Actually, Lakes Huron and Lake Erie are closer to Detroit than Lake Michigan is.
December 15th, 2019 at 7:25 pm
Jameis up over Prescott by about 240 yards….
Full story is on the home page. –Joe

The stupid Falcons gave up a late score, so the Bucs are no longer the #2 offense, they’re #3 by 3 total points. But we still have two weeks to secure that #2 ranking, which of course would be the highest in team history.
The Ravens are #1, very unlikely we’d catch them unless they sit their starters. Not sure of their playoff tiebreakers so I don’t know if that’s likely or not.
December 15th, 2019 at 7:36 pm
LOL! The Falcons beat the 49ers…
December 15th, 2019 at 7:53 pm
Rod
If I’m not mistaken groping is encouraged in Vegas.
December 15th, 2019 at 8:16 pm
Will we have a Freddie Martino sighting. The REAL fans want to know!!!!!
December 15th, 2019 at 8:19 pm
Tnew – He signed with the Vipers so the Bucs can’t bring him back even if they wanted to.
December 15th, 2019 at 8:45 pm
Love the 4 wins in row hoping for 5 next week
December 15th, 2019 at 8:53 pm
Both sides of the ball clicking right now….
I want 18 games….lol…
GO BUCS
