Talk to me about the Bucs

CMC is out, could be another close loss.  Although Bucs looked really bad last week, not sure.

Well, it’s going to be a beautiful day in Charlotte on  Sunday 

Christmas is coming 

Panthers pull an upset by rediscovering DJ and Burris and Chinn return with a pick 6 

shocker in. Charlotte. Panthers 27. Bucs 24

why not 

[TylerDurden]

I usually avoid these threads bc I don't anticipate us winning and don't want to put out the negative energy before the game...  but, idk what it is, I have a feeling we win this week.  

[Eazy-E]

Don’t really care about wins and losses anymore this season. I just want to watch our young guys grow and make plays.

On that note I hope Brain Burns fuging buries Tom Brady.

Hit Brady hard and often and y’all got a shot.

Line up Burns across from Donovan Smith and let him feast and if Marpet is still out, have Brown line up at 3-tech and drive Haeg or whoever they trot out at LG right into Brady’s lap repeatedly. 

I agree with that.   Brady does not handle pressure very well. Even when he was with New England.   Giants won a super bowl because they pressured Brady.

Gonna be without Russell Okung again, though I doubt that surprises anybody.

Here's hoping Dennis Daley stays healthy.

Is there any actual evidence to the narrative of a team preparing harder and playing way stronger coming off a blowout loss? People say that all the time and sure there’s some logic to it, but that would imply a lack of preparation, motivation, etc. the prior week. Somehow I doubt that was the case last week with the Bucs preparing for a fight for 1st place against a divisional opponent. I’m sure they were pretty damn fired up last week too.

It makes at least as much sense to say we watch the hell out of the tape from the Bucs blowout loss last week and learn how to exploit their weaknesses and implement that into our game plan this week. I mean, that’s what I’d expect from good coaches...which is what we believe Rhule to be.

Panthers 33-31!! We split as usual!! We represent.. Bonnafae 2 TDS 

Umm..Bonnafon is on IR.

I actually think we win this one. We have been so close for weeks. If the offense plays like it did last week, we will win. I think we get enough stops on D with getting a few pieces back.

It sucks being stuck on the tarmac, nothing to do.

I just can't get my head around playing to lose.  Or playing to increase your draft position.  And I don't think the players or coaches are relating to that at all.  Evidence at hand clearly points the other way.

I could see it if we were 1-8 and shooting for #1 overall but this team has been playing to win every game and overachieving by any measure.  I don't expect that to change.  This season is about learning to win with a young team and new coaches.  You don't learn how to win by purposefully tanking.  

I want us to continue to try and win every game.  Build that culture that losing isn't acceptable.  If we win great, but at minimum I don't want to see us get blown out like Tampa did last week.
