I give the bucs only about a 50% chance of scoring on offense.

Combine the factors:

 

1. Bucs look like a medic ward

2. Our players are looking for revenge for last year, especially on defense

3. Rookie Quarterback for Tampa

4. Muscle Hamster out

5. Greg Schiano is the Janoris Jenkins of likable coaches

 

That's not to say we will score a bunch on this defense, though.

 

Prediction:

 

Panthers 20

Bucs 3

^ There are other ways to "answer" an elite receiver without having to double cover him.

 

- Mask defenses (feign blitzes or zones)

- Get a pass rush (Johnson et al.)

- Control the ball (Panthers are 3rd in the league in TOP/g at 33min, though TB is 10th at 31)

Vincent Jackson will get his, but that is about it, I think TB scores 7, maybe 10 points in the game, nothing more.  Run game will get dominated by our front 7, and the only mismatch they have is V-Jax.  On the other side, TB misuses Revis by dropping him into zone so much, we'll find soft spots and pound the rock with the 3 headed monster of Tolbert, Williams, and Newton.  They'll slow our offense, but not enough.  Panthers win 24-7

      Can we get to 9-8?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand.

      Trade Chuba?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
