Remember that awesome MNF game vs. Tampa last season?

I just realized that game really wrecked that entire franchise. They were 9-3 when they came into Bank of America Stadium and got WRECKED by Double Trouble. That was the start of their 4-game losing streak to end the season that led to Gruden's firing and many old Bucs veterans finally being shown the door.

It's now 2009 and they STILL haven't won a game. That MNF loss was the start of their current NINE-game losing streak dating back to last season.

So, to recap, that loss wrecked their entire season. Which wrecked their franchise. Which wrecked their 2009 season.

So there's a bright spot to think about in addition to the win today. That win last season set off a domino effect that really led to the Bucs being sent back to their old AWFUL ways of the '70s, '80s, and '90s lol.

At some point, Tampa Bay becomes what Detroit was 2 weeks ago, or what the Rams maybe are now, and that's the most dangerous team in the NFL. They HAVE to win sometime, and the law of averages become on their side(s). Washington isn't suffering so much from a lack of talent as they are good schemes, especially in the red zone, just like turnovers have dogged us so far, the 'Skins can move the ball to the 20, but from there, things get dicey. I bring this up because TB played them tough last week in DC. Cadillac looked good, and he has done some damage to us when he has been healthy. We're playing them in TB. I just want our guys grounded and focused when they go there and not think that this will be a 'gimme'. I think our returned guys from the injured list paid some dividends today. Let's hope that continues.

      Give Legette another season?

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Trade up for a project was dumb, he's gonna be 25 next month. By the time you're deciding on whether he's worth the 5th year option or a big contract you're already gonna be thinking about moving on soon either way.

      I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......

      Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.
