He was an MVP candidate before his ACL, it's a shame.

Also seems like Reich was the mastermind of that offense after all

I've no real axe to grind over Wentz - he was lighting the world on fire before his injury for sure. But games like last night you can see why they drafted Hurts. He can go from brilliant throw to really bad decision in the same drive. He really has some decision-making issues. And they are running him like they don't care if he gets banged up.

If he doesn't get a hold of his consistency he's going to be the next Fitzgerald. Going from team to team who will live with the ups and downs for short-term solutions.

My friend who watched the game said that he throws way too many times across his body.

True - and what struck me was on one of them the announcer said something like, "this is something QBs learn NOT to do in high school". It was pretty reckless.

Because what Brady needed was another receiver. I'm just glad he didn't wind up in Seattle. TB can have him.

if the Bucs can keep AB in check, and he can just refrain from being a drama queen (like what the Lakers did with Dwight Howard), then they might actually have a good combination. They only really have the Saints to worry about in their division IMO

Dumbtonio could not function in a pretty solid setup and leadership group with the Steelies, I don't see how he can work in TB.

But, it's fine...without the cheating system of the Pats, TomTomBriddy can't have his 10 bazillion Mississippis to rely on to throw anything (proof is how an average Bears team with a pretty good passrush made TomTom so mad, he refused to handshake Foles and go rage-cry in the locker room). So, since he can't throw with a century to throw, Dumbtonio won't get catches. Dumbtonio will then go postal and well, TB gets drama and then...

Everyone has (or should have) much more respect for Tomlin for keeping that dysfunctional locker room in check. All those big personalities, all the controversies, yet they still managed 8-8 with Duck Hodges and Rudolph at QB.

Bucs have a great defense, which will help down the stretch. To your point though - we shall see how that o-line holds up.

Good thing Bruce Arians walks around eggshells with his players and AB handles criticism well.

The Steelers look like a complete team that can impose their will in any phase of the game. Road to SB might very well be going through Pit.

The Bucs have the #1 defense and Brady just dropped 45 points on the #6 defense

they’ve been talking about how stacked Tampa has been talent wise for a few years now, glad we finally got rid of that piece of shit Rapist Winston so this team can finally shine

Not going to get ahead of myself, but definitely happy with 6-0. The real test will be the dirty birds next week

Gurley accidentally scoring a TD instead of falling short to run down the clock is the biggest fail so far

also very Falcons-esque

x2. Stealers are probably the best team in the AFC right now

Defense got a little sloppy at the end but they have been really good all year

I think Daniel Jones should look at the tape of DK Metcalf sprinting 90 yards to chase down Baker and save a touchdown. That's how you run 90 yards on your feet...

Anytime there is a play like that it reminds me of Ben Watson against Denver in 2005. Either you have the mindset or you dont
