On paper, the Bucs were supposed to win the Super Bowl this year. The sports writers said the Bucs would win the Super Bowl this year. But the Pewter Pirates looked more like the Tampa Bay High School Choirboys today. I've been critical of Brad Johnson all season, and he didn't disappoint today. He took 10 sacks this game, when before we'd allowed just 9 on him all season. Some of the blame lies within the O-line for their lack of protection, but the bulk of it is squared solely on his shoulders, IMHO. He spent so much time looking off downfield, that he never saw the guys wide-open right there in front of him. Even the announcers made fun of him for his "tunnel vision".
The Bucs seem to have some kind of knack this season for playing like crap for the first 55 minutes, and then all of a sudden going, "Oh @%*^$ -- we're gonna lose! Score!" Well with 5 minutes left in those games, and a 2-3 record now, ya' think maybe this gameplan just ain't workin' folks? Put in King. You can't do worse than we already are! The only person on the team worth his salary right now is Gramatica -- and yes, that includes you Mr. Warren Sapp. I love ya' -- but it's been a long, long time since you've had your gameday face on for four full quarters. Quit giving acid-tongued interviews and step it up ON THE FIELD!
