Official Bucs 2021 NFL Season
Re: Official Bucs 2021 NFL Season
It's week 11 and the last Bucs win was week 7, almost a month ago over da Bears Oct. 24th.
It's only been 2 losses, but feels like more.

Re: Official Bucs 2021 NFL Season
Very interesting numbers and this could be a huge indicator into why home field might be more important to us than people think.
At home we average 38.25ppg vs 18.5 ppa.
On the road we average 23ppg vs 27.6ppa.
We are a completely different team away from Tampa and while this might be true across the league it only highlights the difference between this year and last when most stadiums were empty or a quarter full at best. Going on the road in the postseason might not be the picnic it was for us last season.
Brady has been great this year but it effects him as well. 18/2 vs 9/5 Home/Road splits in TDs to INTs. What completely shocked me though is how bad he's been in the last 2 minutes of the half. 67 passer rating, 4/4 TD/INT and completely only 54% of passes. By comparison, Matt Stafford has a 108.5 rating, 5/1 and 67.7% in the same situations.
A lot to clean up in the 2nd half of the year.

Re: Official Bucs 2021 NFL Season
What is Wentz's time to get the pass off compared to Brady?
Re: Official Bucs 2021 NFL Season
If he comes back, will this be Vea's first matchup with Nelson?
Re: Official Bucs 2021 NFL Season
Apparently we took over as the #1 DVOA team in the league. I just don't see how DVOA can be taken seriously as a metric if they have the Bucs #1.

Re: Official Bucs 2021 NFL Season
@nybf I think we've made progress. There's only one person who feeds it now. Only one....
Re: Official Bucs 2021 NFL Season
You're projecting if you think I was going to put Bucs at 32.
Rams
Cardinals
Packers
Cowboys
Saints
Chiefs
Bills
Titans
Patriots
Those teams are all better than the Bucs, so if DVOA is to be taken seriously as a metric, all those teams just be ranked higher than us.
So yes, clearly DVOA is scuffed and should be ignored.
Rams
Cardinals
Packers
Cowboys

Chiefs

You do realize that DVOA total score is offense AND defense, right?ATrain wrote: ↑Wed Nov 24, 2021 9:08 am You're projecting if you think I was going to put Bucs at 32.

Wild story where a high school basketball team had added SMB accidentally to their group chat. They didn’t believe him and he passed the phone around to Lenny, Gronk, and even the GOAT.
Pretty cool for these guys to have this story. SMB probably should change his number before some high school girls hit him up.

Re: Official Bucs 2021 NFL Season
Kinda feel sad for SMB here. Guy was bor and raised in Michigan, was there his entire life before he got to Tampa and the high school team from Michigan had no clue who he was.BJJ34 wrote: ↑Mon Nov 29, 2021 9:44 am https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/327 ... tball-team

To be fair, it was 45 minutes away from where he went to school. Michigan is a powerhouse for football.King Bootz wrote: ↑Mon Nov 29, 2021 9:58 amKinda feel sad for SMB here.

I like the kids asking for a big fantasy day from Lenny and him outperforming his career days.
Re: Official Bucs 2021 NFL Season
No structural damage for Jamel Dean (shoulder), so he'll be week to week.
The dream of getting Davis-Dean-SMB together on the field is still alive!!

Re: Official Bucs 2021 NFL Season
I'm sure Vea will have a nice looking smile by practice on Wednesday
Marpet should be back soon enough so idk too much about Stinnie. No update on his injury though.
Devin White came back and played the entire 2nd half so I'll assume he's not injured too bad. BA said today that DW will rest til Friday and see how he's feeling.

DW was on the field during Indy's final TD?

Re: Official Bucs 2021 NFL Season
I'm pretty sure he wasn't. I'm pretty sure he didn't play much if at all in the second half. I recall seeing a lot of Minter.mdb1958 wrote: ↑Mon Nov 29, 2021 3:25 pmDread wrote: ↑Mon Nov 29, 2021 3:19 pm

Re: Official Bucs 2021 NFL Season
He came into the game with a quad injury and that led to the hip injury. Gotta be careful with connecting core injuries or it'll lead to something like Carlton Davis. This time of the year we can't afford that.Dread wrote: ↑Mon Nov 29, 2021 3:19 pmI'm sure Vea will have a nice looking smile by practice on Wednesday

White left the game early in the first quarter and Minter subbed in playing the rest of the first half.The Outsider wrote: ↑Mon Nov 29, 2021 3:30 pmI'm pretty sure he wasn't. I'm pretty sure he didn't play much if at all in the second half. I recall seeing a lot of Minter.
White returned and played the 2nd half
Minter played 34 snaps
White played 35 snaps

Re: Official Bucs 2021 NFL Season
It was weird, either during halftime or right as 2nd half was kicking off, they said DW was downgraded to "out", then all of a sudden he's on the field. I know NFL is a stickler for injury designations for their betting public, so I thought that was strange.Dread wrote: ↑Mon Nov 29, 2021 3:48 pmWhite left the game early in the first quarter and Minter subbed in playing the rest of the first half.The Outsider wrote: ↑Mon Nov 29, 2021 3:30 pm

Re: Official Bucs 2021 NFL Season
What sucks is, I bet DW easily makes that pick that Minter dropped. All's well that ends well, but that was a huge missed opportunity.

Re: Official Bucs 2021 NFL Season
What kind of shot do you think they gave 45 for him to finish playing?
Re: Official Bucs 2021 NFL Season
Ahh Toradol. You ever enjoy a nice Toradol shot?
Re: Official Bucs 2021 NFL Season
I received maybe a dozen in my life, all from team docs during my brief career. It's good stuff, but apparently can be rough if you get it regularly. Again, I'm no doctor, so take my anecdotal experiences with a grain of salt.

Fun interview of Gronk by Willie McGinest on NFL Total Access yesterday.

AB suspended 3 games for the fake vax card along with 3 other players.

Re: Official Bucs 2021 NFL Season
Oof, this is a very bad look for the team and AB lol.
Guess it was going to happen eventually, but fuck.
I actually wonder if AB and Edwards stay with the team now. The only other similar case is the NHL's Evander Kane, and he was suspended 21 games and dropped by his team. Hell, nobody else at the top level would even touch him.
