Lets give TB some credit...

They could very well be a threat in the later season, look at Miami they turned it around in one season w/ new coaching staff. We new they had a WC offense but they really aired the ball alot and they had a solid running game. Our D (per Eaglton's tweet) was way to over agressive in the first half and over-pursued alot. This is why the runs up the tackles/gut were pretty successful. In the end our O abused the matchup problems all day...BTW this is the same thing as blown coverages (this is what we intended to do, make their D commit errors). The D coordinator must have been pulling his hair out during the second half.

Jim Bates scheme produced just like I thought it would . WRs running thru the secondary untouched. I watched the scheme up close and personal the past few years. It is a joke and what happened today has happened the past few years with Green Bay, Denver and now Tampa.

Tampa might win 3 games this year if they are lucky.

People around here aren't even willing to give the Cowboys credit for winning. If they praise Tampa Bay after losing (to the Cowboys no less), it would be par for the course.

I agree. I think it was a great win for the boys. I've got a feeling that the talent level between the top and bottom teams isn't as great as you'd might think. And I don't consider Tampa a bottom dwelling team. It looked like there was plenty of hard hitting (just ask Ware), and I think Ward gives them a decent running game. Romo was great, although there were a few close calls. The receiving corp looked like we might have some players and Barber is looking like himself.

It was a great win and I think I'll savor it for a while before worrying about the giants. Congrats to the 'boys!

Cadillac when healthy is a HORSE. On one play Spears tackled him as he bounced around the edge but not before Cadillac literally ran over him. The guy was playing like he was possessed.

Give an assist to the Tampa coaches for basically taking Cadillac out of the second half playcalling.

Well they were down by a few scores they ended up going pass heavy...not to mention that early in the second half we were stuffing the run.

I think Sensabaugh might have injured him with that tackle near the endzone, it looked very close to a Roy Wil...ahem..horse collar tackle. They were looking at him on the sideline after that.

A team that went 9-7 last year with lots of signifigant injuries... hmm sounds familiar.
