Why are we so scared of TB's Defense?


Jakob

Recommended Posts

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.

shady > williams x10

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

    • I would write “give remmers tight end help” on a yellow sticky note and stuck it in shulas playbook the night before superbowl 50. 
    • And don’t worry about Bryce he will be great… Peyton Manning had a horrible rookie year too 😂
    • Nothing wrong with it at all until you start telling others they are bad fans or not fans. But you are the good fan because you never say negative stuff about the team.    I did many years of that type of uninformed fanning because there really was no info and coverage like there is with the internet.    I mean, I used to go to the store and get Street and Smith’s annual football issue. That was about the extent of what you could get if you didn’t live in a big city with sportswriters covering and reporting.  There was no video to look at or replay the games and if you didn’t live in the market you could only rarely see your football team play.    TI have fanned since being a kid in the early 1960s, and as late as 1995 - ‘97 I lived in Atlanta and good luck getting more than 3 or 4 games a year on TV. No radio either. No print coverage outside of an AP recap and box unless they played Atlanta.  People today that have always had the network connection don’t know.    I wasn’t very educated about the Panthers until I finally got internet.
