It's hard to envision us losing to Tampa next Saturday.

I try to keep a competitive respect for every team we play, whether they are considered superior or inferior to us-epsecially in a division game.

Tampa, however, seems to collapsing. Getting destroyed by a horribly bad Jacksonville team and now tonight's game, they look pretty bad.

Obviously I am not looking past tommorow's game, but I just wanted to contribute some healthy football discussion to the board before I hit the hay.

For the Tampa game, I would feel completely comfortable playing Tampa with essentially the exact same gameplan we played against them with last time, with Rivera going over the tape for some minor alterations. Now obviously Tampa has that same courtesy, but they just appear too talent deprived offensively to execute an efficient gameplan well enough.

I feel completely comfortable stacking the box against Freeman to shut down Blount. Freeman, for whatever reason, has been too scared to go down the field. Whether it's a mental regression on his part, or Tampa just does not have the offensive weapons to get open, I do not know. Either way, I feel perfectly fine putting 8 men in the box and telling Tampa to beat us deep. I feel comfortable risking giving up the occasional big play if it means shutting down their rushing attack-because honestly, the talent at their skill positions on O don't pose a huge threat to our Secondary. Gamble has the ability to eliminate any Receiver, and Godfrey has done a good job blanketing TE's all year.

So, as I said, I just don't see us losing to Tampa next week. Let's kill the cows tomorrow first, and have some nice filet Mignon for dinner on the flight home, but beyond that, it'd be nice to get back to sweeping Tampa, and hopefully getting the split with New Orleans.

In conclusion, here is a picture of our head coach I found whilst continuing on my journey through the internetz.

Yep. That sounds a bit more accurate.

In my defense... They were doing everything that we've been wanting them to do. If we go on to curb stomp them, as we should have, it would have been a different story. Unfortunately, it didn't work out, and I looked dumb again... That mistake made me a better poster. Just got to take my lumps and move on...

It took me like 5 minutes figuring out why we weren't playing the 25th..

I'd like to see some 3-4 looks from our D if we get a comfortable lead. It will give the D some experience in it and we can murder their O line like Dallas just did.
