We've been maddeningly inconsistent this year (though that has definitely tapered off since Romo took the reins), and it wouldn't surprise me for this team to be hungover on Turkey day.

Enjoy this win tonight fellas, but we HAVE to be ready to play next week. A win would set up an absolutely huge rematch against the NY Tikis in the Meadowlands.

Let's hope that Hostile's prediction about this team running the table if we were to beat Indy today comes true...

I really do think we will be ready.

I don't see us coming back and dropping off on Thursday. I think we are gonna blast our of this Colts game and soundly beat the Bucs. The team finally has some serious confidence now.

I'm also in this camp...although, I seem to worry about every game. This game won't be a cake walk, IMO.

Although that Tampa D may be a little long in the tooth they still have some bite left. Their O? Doesn't really concern me, but I just think that their D will keep this game close.

Not ripping on ya.

But how about not being a Debbie Downer right after the win.

Just savor it for the night. :cool:

I hope they beat the Bucs naturally, but as a fan I am looking forward to that Giants game. Those stupid "jump shot" celebrations still gall me.

not worried about this game. We'll beat them just like we've beat all the other bottom feeders of the NFL, convincingly.

I think we will be ready and take the Bucs out to the woodshed.

There's nothing to worry about. The Indy game was the pace setter. We'll be up for every game from here on out. Happy Early Thanksgiving. It's going to be a great one!

If it's any relief, Tuna mentioned in his post-game that the team is meeting at 11 AM tomorrow and that the coaching staff has already done its homework on Tampa.

They are prepared and hope to be able to take a breath on Friday.

Trust me, I am still sitting over here as giddy as a schoolgirl that just got asked to the prom by Tony Romo.

But this Cowboys team has crushed me over the last decade, and I worry that they will do it to me again this year.

You're forgetting that the Buccs have been even more maddeningly inconsistent. They are also coming off of a big win (for them). What makes you think that they won't have they same problem?

They really aren't in the same caliber as us. However, we could lose to them...just like we lost to the Commanders. We play like that, and we can lose to anybody.

No need to be SCARED though, IMO. ;)

We will absolutely crush TB on Thanksgiving day...they have no offense at all...I've seen them twice recently, including today against the Skins...their rookie QB is a tough kid, but not very good...they have no real running game to speak of....they did very little against Washington, barely enough to beat a team playing another QB in his first NFL action.

We will destroy their offense on Thursday....

The only worry I have is with Newman and Henry.

Are they ok?

I mean Roy Williams nailed Henry....and Newman took the hardest shot I've seen in some time.

Sometimes I think Roy is "Groo....the Wanderer". Anyone ever read that comic? He's kind of a parody of Conan the Barbarian

I remember one comic in particular where people are talking about Groo. One says, "My brother once fought against Groo and was killed by him."

Another says, "My brother once fought WITH Groo and was killed by him."

Sometimes it seems Roy is like that. I remember when he almost decaptitated both Darren Woodson and Patrick Ramsey on the same play.

Like any game, it's not a gimme... But it should be a huge help that the Bucs play the same cover-2 scheme the Colts do. That should help the offense a lot.

And it's always an advantage that they have to travel, while our guys get to sleep in their own beds.

I'm not at all. I'm calling for a blowout. I live in the Tampa area by the way ... not that that means anything.

I'm not a player so I'll enjoy this win all the way up until 3:30 EST on Thursday.

I'm really not worried about Tampa though. Their offense is seriously inept. I think the only way they score an offensive TD on us is a Galloway catch and run or Galloway bomb.
