No, but i am sick of losing at home against the Bucs. Even when we have beat them at home (06, 08) it has been damn close, whereas we have housed them in Tampa several times.

losing is acceptable when you're not playing to win. Idiot.

I'm more concerned about the injuries. I'm going to put money down we'll have several guys out next week that will make people go wtf on here.

Always bothered when we lose regardless of the circumstances


Everyone wants to just blow off this loss, but I am concerned when we miss tackles, have turnovers, etc. The point being, the players are professionals- they should play 100% every game. I don't like to see sloppy play this late in the season; starting next week, there is ZERO room for this kind of play...

Because its against a shitty Tampa Bay team. These bums are a bunch of jokes and losing to them is unacceptable even in a meaningless game.


First off, shitty teams don't win ten games. Second, this loss doesn't bother me when guys who had minor tweaks didn't return to the game (like last year against Dallas and later), because it was clear that the staff and team weren't concerned with a loss here. Third, Tampa was playing to win while we were playing not to lose and not to show anything.

So this game was a big balm of meh to me. Meh!

This loss was very similar to our first two losses last year. We were very vanilla and anyone who had a minor tweak didn't play or didn't return to the game. BTW, as professionals, they know what the goal is and what is important at the time. Not getting hurt is more important than "being tough" or what the frick ever you think they should be doing. These next four games are the focus, not today.
