Bucs Have Significant Injury Issues as Well

Bucs are pretty banged up, too, especially on offensive line.

In addition to their starting RG and RT being out, they had one of their backup Guards, get injured in practice, evidently bad enough to be placed on IR.

Also, Shaq Barrett is also listed as questionable after practicing earlier in the well- unclear what happened.  Probably still a good chance he plays, may not be at 100% which would be A-OK with me given our own offensive line issues.

Bottom line, both teams are banged up, so the injury excuse is invalid.  Got to find a way to win Sunday.

Shaq Barrett will play.  They also get their top draft pick back Devin White back in the lineup that is already among the top Run D in the league.  White's the freak MLB they drafted  much believe due to CMC and Kamara.

 

 

Their OL is the only main injury concern.  Which their OL was already terrible to begin with

Kyle Allen is going to have to bring his A game because the passing game is going to be major in this game.

There was a pretty good rule of thumb I followed under the Fox era and now it applies to this team imo. Can we cram the run up the their ass? Then I like our chances.

Ummm. They have the second ranked rushing defense in the league.   And they have gone up against CMC, Kamara, Barkley, and Gurley.  
How do you feel now?

      No doubt.  I was at the game watching it and it looked like a fly ball to the infield.  It got in the air and just hung up.  XL tracked it like a shortstop.

      Bryce likely out next week

      You need to go outside and get some fresh air.

      Sorry, I don't get the "mental" thing at all. If his football IQ was as low as you say it is, then he wouldn't be out there blocking as well as he is.  It is quite possible that he's been pressing due to not really being in the flow of the game because Bryce doesn't look for him on the regular. His strength, at the moment, seems to be as a mismatch in the slot on crossers and slants in my opinion,and for whatever reason (maybe height) Bryce is more likely going to chuck it to the sidelines. So, in a sense, maybe Legette and Bryce aren't a good pairing, and that gives the appearance that Legette is not all there. Lord knows that Bryce doesn't seem to be able to hit receivers in stride so they can maximize YAC. But anyway...all that being said, I thought that X would be more than just a possession type of guy. So we'll see where it goes from here. I'm not like some, who appear not to see the value in a guy who can kill you like that, and kill you just as well as guys that do their best work on the outside, but, X is going to have to be able to consistently hands-catch on the run and separate better at the top of the route if he really wants to unlock his potential as an all-around receiver. If Bryce could consistently and accurately hit receivers, especially in seams on the slants and crossers, it would open up Legette and the offense. Just my opinion, but I think he causes all the receivers to press to varying degrees, and causes the coaches to call plays that have built-in limitations, but I could be wrong about that.
