Okay, it's officially time to panic...

I agree that the poor tackling is a serious issue that needs to be addressed sooner than later. Still, I'm not going to panic until we're not competing in meaningful games. Next week will tell us a lot about our team, or at least a lot more than a preseason game where the starters only played a few sets of downs will.

we'll address the mistakes, i'm sure, and do everything possible to correct them. But i think there's a LOT of positives to take out of tonight's performance, too - improvements over the first three games.

I think week one against the eagles will be much different than 90% of the people on this board are expecting.

Oh and the interception Matt Moore threw was absurd.

Seriously, he got hit right as he let the ball go. I thought Matt played great tonight, he made some outstanding throws and really seemed comfortable out there but also with a sense of urgency. He threw the ball down the field and made some plays.

i agree. the receiver (rosario?) was definitely open... it looked to me like the hit took a good bit of strength off the throw.

Yeah.. that interception was not Moore's fault at all. If anybody needs to shoulder the blame there, it was our 1st string TE from last year. King basically got mauled by the DE, and even with blatant holding, still got his ass beat back into the QB. That one was pure King

    • I get what you are saying. I'm just saying we made it to the win, we should have a bit of class and not dogpile on the QB because his stat line wasn't great. His stat lines weren't great for almost his entire pro career, but this time, we got a win. Give him a breather.  The team cleared the bar. In the end, that's all that matters. Do it enough times and well, good things happen.  We've shat the bed enough times with good-ish QB play. It's not like we've been regularly to the playoffs even with our best performing QBs over the years. Heck, Matt Stafford was a helluva QB in Detroit for a long time with nothing to show for it. Steve Bartowski was a great QB back in the day, but in 20 years of watching I saw one playoff game for the Falcons. Heck, even Dan Marino spent most of his illustrious career on a lousy Dolphins team.  And yet, Tampa's first Superbowl ring was with the esteemed Trent Dilfer at the helm. Sometimes it goes like that. 
    • I don't care what they tell me. Its what they actually do that matters. Coaches and GM's say crap all the time to keep fan interest. They are always trying to sell you something. 
    • But you have to separate the 2 things in order to move forward.  Its okay to enjoy winning and its also okay to be critical of what is happening.  Coaches do it why cant we?   Also they have to be thinking next off season, next year all in real time.  They are applying what is working, where help is needed and how to get better and make plans for that.   I am weirdly confident that Dan and Dave are seeing what we are seeing and will adjust.   The wildcard however are the teppers
