Why are we so scared of TB's Defense?

Most of us agree we should be able to shut down the Buc's offense but, I see a lot of people worried about the Buc's defense? I'll agree they had a top 15 defense first 4 games. Since then the Defense has imploded allowing 31 to the Falcons and 31 to the Eagles back to back. Shady pounded them in the ground game. The front 4 causes some concern but so did the Rams front 4?

With Tampa, we find ourselves playing down to them often.

 

The exception was a few years back with Double Trouble ran for several hundred yards and ripped em a new one.

We lost to the Bucs twice last year, since then they have lost Freeman, Martin and about half the defense.

Posters are so afraid of confidence around here its amazing.

Winning is what Cam was accustomed to before he came here. He is in his element.

Watch and see.

I've heard the same pessimism before evey game this year.

 

and for good reason...

 

newton was accustomed to winning before he came to the nfl, but things have changed since them...he has now become accustomed to losing.

NFL is about matchup. Tampa causes us problems...

Realizig that isn't being pessimistic.

Being forced to pass, with a bad OL against a secondary that features legit talent.... isn't a scenario to be overconfident about.

Cam isn't going to be on fire every game with his short/intermediate game. If that happens on a day we play a D that can make us one dimensional.....we got problems.

they still have the ability to make carolina's offense one dimensional without selling out to stop the run like the rams.

toss records and injuries aside...divisional games are always dangerous.

Ya the biggest thing is they won't need to sell out to stop the run like the rams did, which left them vulnerable in coverage. Plus the bucs have a talented defensive backfield, I don't like the matchup too well

      Watching games this year again and Bryce missed a wide open XL many times and some of them were in the endzone. I get the kid has mental lapses and hasn't broke out yet, but this is year three on a rookie deal! Cutting bait now is too early. If he hasn't gained anymore trust from his QB, posted any highlights, little production, or outright gets beat out then we can talk movement.

      Samesies   I truly may just cash completely out of Panther football if we give him a long term deal that isnt necessary.  I have watched NFL for 50 years now and I can without a shadow of a doubt say you cannot win consistently with BY.  Way too many limitations to deal with.   I may come back around in 3 years when the inevitable happens and all parties are either cut and/or fired.  Giving him a deal before this season so you hopefully can get him cheaper in case he "blows up" or if you truly believe that he will has to be the most moronic decision a gm can make when the evidence is laid before you with different players

      This is the one! I was at that game and all KB had to do was lay down on the corner after the pick or make an obvious tag while he was down. He had already ran a lazy route. Then if Cam would've just walked to the sideline like most elite QBs instead of trying to make the tackle.  A lot of people bring up the TJ Watt hit, but he just reaggravated a bunch of scar tissue from that play. And every Cam hater said that the running did him in and it was a dive tackle attempt on an interception that initially began the shoulder deterioration. He still went to New England later and would've got them in the playoffs had their A team not sat out the covid year. We quit on him too early. But hey how good was Teddy? Am I right?
