For those that want to dump on Allen expecting him to be perfect, Mahomes just threw 3 bad passes in a row. 

Slightly diff situations.     pretty much any college player should have made that throw in their sleep

What Mad Max a healhty scratch today or?

 

No, he was in there on the first long TD Tucker ran for and couldn't quite get there at the end to push him out.

 

Seemed Tre was in there more this game tho.

 

Gonna be ups and downs still with the rook, but he is going to be a great one I think.

That's a a big no! We've seen Josh better many times.

Sure. We have also seen him disinterested, frustrated and zoning out. 

 

Playing his style of wild man football keeps him engaged.

They still scored 21 points in the first half. It’s only the second time they have done that this season. The other was against the Chiefs. 

The way TB handled the end of the 1st half was a bit odd.

I was not impressed by either defense and I guess the score board tells that story pretty well. It seemed more like a game where you just wait to see which offense makes the most mistakes taking the opportunities that were in front of them.

I also did not see why TB felt forced to throw it in many sitations and they ended up with some costly TOs - particularly with the way they were running it against our D. Say what you want about Brady, but when we are running the ball well he keeps pounding the other team until they can prove they can stop it.

Allen was awful for a huge chunk of that game 

 

And had 6 TDs

 

I don't know what I just watched but it was fun as hell

 

That's what an NFL offense is supposed to look like. Slants, deep shots, passes to RBs. 

 

Very encouraging for the passing game going forward.

Awful? He certainly wasn't fantastic but wasn't awful

Any chance we can mess with some clocks so that Bernard and T. johnson are late for the team meeting before Thursday night?

 

Good plan after Bernard just played the best game he's played this year

If the bucs get Godwin and Evans back holy ***** they’re in the Super Bowl 

Eagles, Rams, and Seahawks will have something to say about that.

Receivers seemed to be open all day.  I know the Bucs had injuries, but it was a really good day for that unit.

Classy move by Bowles to kneel it…save the bodies….not so classy…McD calls a timeout.

 

I think they were worried about 12 men on the field. Looked like they didn’t know what defensive package should be on the field with Bridgewater in to kneel 

[PayDaBill$]

It was no doubt a ballsy effort today coming off last week and losing 3 of the last 5.

 

What’s really disappointing is Coleman who is coming off as immature and a wasted pick and all the resources we threw at the defense to not fix a reoccurring problem.

 

It’s time to get younger and bigger on defense, and it’s about  time we find a legitimate WR1.

But he looked silly chasing down the RB, and everyone saw that because the TD was a highlight. 

[YoloinOhio]

Yikes 

 

 

[quincy]

Very glad with the W.

 

Egbuka had a quiet game, which I wasn't expecting.

 

it was huge keeping TB to a FG after the chest pass interception. 

 

Shavers, Palmer and Davis all had crucial catches during the game.

 

Onto Houston, let's go Buffalo. 

[No_Matter_What]

I told you before the season that there will be a game when Kincaid, Shakir and Coleman combine for -3 yards and we score 44 points and you didn't want to believe me!

Pretty sure they stuck to the same every other drive rotation that they’ve been doing 

[FLFan]

A couple of early miscues by Allen but he was the difference in that game no doubt. That first int was unfortunate but I do not blame him for trying to avoid the safety.  It cost them exactly 1 point in the end. He played brilliantly, tough, resilient, and determined.  The best. 
 

The run Defense was horrible obviously but they made some big plays on that side that preserved the ability to win. Gutsy and played hard. 
 

Special Teams made a big impact, mostly positive. 
 

this should be a big confidence building win for them.

Time out was called because the Bills had 13-14 players on the field.

Today felt like 2017-2018 Josh Allen.

One minor nitpick - can Dawkins learn what a ***** hard count is? 

 

Well remember now, Dion says all the time he’s an entertainer whose in the entertainment business. Sometimes he’s focused on the yapping out there and forgets the snap count
