I was thinking today regarding this game. Our defense going up against another defense, two inconsistent offenses playing each other... the game possibly coming down to special teams or a big play on defense... and then it hit me.
We've played this game before. In fact, we played this game LAST YEAR!!
What am I talking about? I'm talking about the Baltimore Rave game... am I crazy, but I see Sundays contest as the exact same game.
In the Baltimore game, we were going into their house... playing against their tough defense... and we lost. How did we lose? The same way we CAN lose on Sunday.
If my memory serves... the Bills defense dominated the Baltimore offense, but Bledsoe cost us the game. Deion's infamous return of a Bledsoe interception, and I remember Bledsoe also fumbling (or throwing a pick) down deep in the Baltimore red zone. We lost because of those two plays, and those plays alone.
If JP makes similar mistakes, like Bledsoe did in the Raven game last year, I am going to guarantee a victory for the Buccanneers... JP can NOT have costly turnovers on his head Sunday.
If JP does not make the mistakes that Bledsoe did, I guarantee a victory for us.
Here's to holding my breath and hoping JP plays smart football Sunday.
