TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS @ CAROLINA PANTHERS OFFICIAL GAME DAY THREAD

[King Bootz]

What a ticky tack penalty

That was an easy one. Can't block before the pass is thrown.

[accidentw8ing2happen]

Unsure if he would be welcomed back??? Everyone knew that him and AB would be back. Do a poll.

That's a good suggestion. You might try it. He's been relegated to 2nd, 3rd string for several years.

That has absolutely nothing to do with anything. Arians calls him a ball hawk for a reason. You seem to believe that you are more knowledgeable than Arians. Maybe just someone that argues for the sake of arguing.

[TonyLip]

Nice separation, AB!!!

[13F11B]

That OPI is a shining example of what we're missing without Godwin. AB is not a quality blocker. He's also not use to doing it. No coincidence that he engages as soon as the ball is snapped.

Agree with you there. Godwin would have made it look more like normal hand fighting before engaging or just kind screened the guy off.

[King Bootz]

Stick with it

[Patrick McIrish]

They only sent 3 guys but still a great pocket for Brady to throw in.

Well done OLine.

C'mon @King Bootz that was a bang bang play. The timing was off but not by a huge amount.

[Bucsfan83]

RJ almost broke that

[Rocker]

D Smith was violent and relentless on that conversion.

Kudos, big guy!

Exactly. He's use to the concept and the nuance of blocking for the screen.

My guess is that's the last time we'll see AB blocking on a screen play.

[Nano]

Solid gameplan so far. We're a running team so far

[King Bootz]

Marpet whiffed there

[13F11B]

I love the rushing game but I would like to see a first down PA pass or two.

[Cheb]

I love the rushing game but I would like to see a first down PA pass or two.

Agreed.

When the defense can reasonably predict the playcall, it's time to change said call.

[13F11B]

Non-game note. I am tired of this over-active blonde in the red suit on the Verizon ads.

[Phantom]

Is Gronk hurt?

[ATrain]

Well failed drive off the TO.

[Cheb]

Is Gronk hurt?

He was out there on that third down attempt.

[King Bootz]

Is Gronk hurt?

Gronk is being bracketed.

[Cheb]

Well failed drive off the TO.

We got points. Not as many as we would've liked, but we extended the lead to a touchdown.

Relax.

[13F11B]

Kicker doesn't suck, so far, today. That is a plus.

[ATrain]

It's one or the other with Leftwich. Either we ignore the run game and throw it 50 times, or we commit to the run but become predictable by running on 1st down damn near every time.

[Rocker]

Well failed drive off the TO.

We got points. Not as many as we would've liked, but we extended the lead to a touchdown.

Relax.

Don’t feed it.

[King Bootz]

Darnold is in now. This is why people in Charlotte want Rhule gone.

[Bucsfan83]

they pulled cam

[King Bootz]

And the fans are booing Darnold lol.

[Phantom]

Darnold is in now. This is why people in Charlotte want Rhule gone.

Is Darnold the main reason why they want Rhule gone?

[Patrick McIrish]

Oh boy, here comes a 'back-up QB'.

We seem to find a way to lose when faced with a non-starter.

[Cheb]

The Panthers announced prior to the game that they would be rotating their quarterbacks in some fashion.

This isn't exactly a surprise.

[King Bootz]

.............WTF

[Rocker]

Whitehead again influencing the play.

How much is Carolina paying Darnold?

[Bucsfan83]

And the fans are booing Darnold lol.

Well they aren't booing him now : I

[Cheb]

And the fans are booing Darnold lol.

I feel kinda bad for him.

[ATrain]

Darnold is way more dangerous. He can actually throw the football.

[Phantom]

.............WTF

Yeah exactly!
