I love to go to http://ussportspages.com and read the papers after a Panther's win! But these writers are ragging the bucs about every aspect of the game - awesome!!!

KEY DECISION

It was made sometime last week, inside the Panthers meeting rooms, most likely by Panthers offensive coordinator Jeff Davidson. Ignoring the fact that the Bucs had held his runners to just 40 yards the last time they faced them, Davidson and his fellow Carolina coaches decided to attack the Bucs up the middle, where Jovan Haye was missing and Ryan Sims was filling in. It proved to be a master stroke. Sure, the Bucs lost this game largely because of their poor tackling, but it was the Panthers ability to penetrate the middle of the Bucs line with speed and power that got them started on those runs.

:rolleyes:

Whenever the Panthers run it down someone's throat it's because of "poor tackling"

Why isn't it because the Panther's backs were BREAKING tackles?

I'm tired of hearing it.

It was poor tackling against Oakland

It was poor tackling against Detroit

Now it's poor tackling against Tampa

For poor tackling go watch the Browns defense. That's some poor tackling. Williams and Stewart simply beat their asses.

If you heard Grudens press conference or read the players quotes after the game they told it like it was:

poor play by the Bucs D

poor tackling

poor gap play

great play by the Panthers

Our press can't find a fact...in fact they make some up.

Did we have some good stiff arms? Yes. Did we have some great moves? Hell yes. But god god yes they tackled poorly. D-Lo got out of so many when he should have been brought down. We kicked their asses, but they're right about many plays. It's just like when we tackle poorly. It costs us dearly and it cost them dearly.

    • The era that you played in, and, more importantly, who you played with actually matters. Honestly, that's why these issues will be debated forever, as it's just difficult to say that this person or that person is better when you're discussing the passage of time. As for me, after Rice, Moss and maybe Megatron and T.O., there's probably a dozen or so guys that can be argued about to the cows come home. Personally, I'm not putting Fitz, Harrison, Johnson, Evans, or especially D-Hop, Jefferson, Chase or Hill definitely in front of Smitty (and Colston ain't even in the discussion). Context and all that stuff actually matters. Things like the triple crown matter. 
    • Some of those guys? Yeah honestly you can.  I would 100% take Steve Smith over Larry Fitzgerald, Harrison, even Mike Evans. He is 100% a better player than those guys in his prime. If you look at the numbers Smith is historically under targeted in comparison to his contemporaries. He was only targeted 150 times or more only once in his career. Fitzgerald for example was targeted well above that 9 different seasons. Had Smith played with Peyton, Brady, Greatest Show on Turf, or even with Warner in Arizona he would broken records. His 2008 season was ridiculous accumulating 1400 yards in 13 games on less than 80 receptions. All time he also lost a season due to injury in 04, barely played WR as a rookie. Got robbed of 1k season with Clausen. Thats easily another 1800yds minimum that should have been tacked on to his #s. The only guys I’d say for certain are better than Smith are Rice, Moss, TO, Megatron, Julio Jones, Antonio Brown.
    • I parked in this lot a few times. It would take over and hour to get out of that lot after games. Never again
