Based on the huddle logic. The Bucs beat the great Jets team. 

The cowboys, whom are rhe favorite to win the NFL, is winless so far in preseason.  Is a shame they won't even win 4 games. 

 

Mean while, Rivera has his Commanders undefeated,  so they're going to win the superbowl!!! 

 

Wooohoo!!

 

 

If the Cowboys go 0-3 in preseason, history tends to show that they would be pioneers in blazing a trail to the playoffs. It just doesn't happen.

The preseason is a different animal with the 3 game schedule.  Different teams playing different groups at different weeks.  I've seen more starters vs third stringers with the 3 week schedule.  Every team is doing their own thing vs the traditional 4 week schedule where the starters played week 3 and 4 was for depth.

I just don't understand why people are overreacting to preseason like it's going to determine how well we do.  There are some concerns, and you hope that things get cleaned up.

How well Bryce plays, along with the rest of the offense is going to determine how many games we win.  That's just the modern NFL.  If your D can keep people below 20 points a game, you give your offense a chance, even a subpar one.  I think our D will do that...

But I'm realistic - new coach, rookie Qb, new schemes, and a LOT of change.  It's going to take a few weeks of real games for them to gel.  After week 3-4, I think we'll have a much better idea of the team.

Jags, Chargers, Vikings, Bucs, Seahawks.

To add to this:

5 of 14 teams in the playoffs were winless in the preseason ~36%

Ravens were the only undefeated preseason team to make the playoffs.

I think the concerns about this team in the preseason far exceeds just w/l's.  They have been covered ad nauseam in multiple threads.

This was in response to a poster saying  winless preseason teams never make the playoffs when it happened 5 times just last season.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Really? You don't see why a team can't draft a QB in the 1st round while then starting their former #1 overall pick over them while on the last year of their deal? It puts the team in a TERRIBLE place no matter how the season goes.  If Bryce sucks, you have to answer questions as to why he was still on the team to begin with, let alone starting over the rookie.  If he's good, then you run into the situation the Vikings were in last offseason with sticking with the rookie contract or the the guy who just performed instead of said young QB. It's one thing when teams keep a vet around as a bridge QB, it's something entirely different when that QB is still only in their mid 20's and was taken #1 overall by that team.   That just doesn't happen and not sure it ever has in NFL history before.

      Where panthers draft ranked against Big Boards in 2023

      What is the alternative? - BY, will not play for less then his perceived contract (just like Cam Newton did). So you pay him top of market as befitting a 1st round, Heisman winning, playing birthing QB would get. Or you cut him. - Then we are forced to either sign a stop gap QB / previously failed QB and try to fix him or you spend a 1st round pick and draft a guy, basically resetting the team.  The reality is that we all want a top 5 QB. The problem is there are only 5 of those guys in the world and drafting, even #1 overall doesn't guarantee that.  The other problem is the NFL market. Young QB get paid. Even an average, young QB gets top of market deals. I know a lot of people here think we could sign him to an 'average QB contract' but thats not reality. Didnt happen with Cam wont happen with BY.  So we could let this season flush out and he is again a middling QB. But then we cut and restart or accept it is what it is (including compensation) and build a team around what we have.  My money is on the latter.

      That doesn't void his contract
