Izien looks very good with the ball in his hands.

Put him at RB too.

That wasn’t on Cousins.
TBH, all three of those turnovers weren't really his fault.

As soon as the Bucs went away from misdirection and went more vanilla, things opened up.

Bunch of offenses struggling early. Pretty typical.

2 min offenses befuddle me. Teams *seem* to move the ball easier in those situations, or maybe I have selective memory.

The offense has stunk overall, but it's to be expected given we have a new scheme, new OC, new Oline, and new QB. I won't give my seal of disapproval until game 4 or 5 if the offense doesn't start looking much better.

Normally when a QB has that many yards in the first half, it's not 10 - 10 tie ball game.

As an aside, Matt Ryan is a vanilla but competent broadcaster. Happy for him.

3 turnovers is why they only have 10 points.

It will need to be 6 for the Bucs to stand a chance.

Our Defense has been off the field for awhile now, hopefully they come back out with the same intensity as they did when they first started today

It was ugly, but many of these offensive linemen didn't get many reps in preseason. Sloppiness is week one is a bit expected offensively.

I can’t get a read on R. White while watching him. I think @Nobody is probably right that he’s a broke man’s Kamara though. He smooth but not overly dynamic.
