I think itās clear after losing to Eagles and Lions that weāre an avg at best team. We can kick the crap out of bad teams but canāt compete with teams with winning records. Having said that, we can prob win the division with 8-9 wins, maybe get lucky in wildcard but most likely one and done.
Game was closer than it looks. If the Bucs connected on like 3-5 key plays it wouldve been a different ball game. Thing learned from this game is the team needs to work more on the deep ball.
Garbage calls against Bucs..
Not to mention countless no calls on tackles when Detroit was using their helmets.
One of the worst Bucs games Iv'e ever seen in my life
Lions fans here, your defense looked really great in the first half. I believe they were getting tired out there, considering the Bucs offense was not performing well.
Donāt worry yall when we beat the Bills in 2 weeks itāll be like this never happenedā these Uniforms havnt been used in 11 years for a reason, Bad juju.
What a fucking putrid offensive performance today. Mike has forgotten how to catch the ball any time we play a team worth a shit. Defense can do its job if the offense does theirs. Get it tf together man. Games only get tougher going forward.
I moved to Florida in '99 and chose the Bucs. If the jerseys were still creamsicle at the time, I probably would have been a fins fan lol. Burn those ugly things.
name one thing that worked today and was not utter shit?
nah nah, you can't say camarda that's obvious
besides that?
anything?
yeah
What a shitty game. Wow.
Getting drunk to forget games. Looks like 2014 is back on the menu
Yeah immense defensive pressure is decreasing his accuracy because heās forced to get the ball out quicker instead of being able to line up and deliver it
Honest question what is the fun in growing up and rooting your entire life for a team thatās from a different city? Itās like going to UF and rooting for the Noles, whatās the point. Half my friends are fans of such random teams and lived here their whole life.
People cheering for their hometown team is becoming less common these days. Especially in the NBA. Florida has always had this issue because of most people being here having ties to somewhere else, but also Floridians only tend to care about the local teams when they are good.
For me it was being annoyed at all the Packers/Chiefs fans in Nebraska and my grandparents were snowbirds so I was in Manatee County like every winter of childhood š¤
I would like it if we actually made a good team earn it though. Gotten our teeth kicked in twice at home this year by teams we would have to contend with if we want to win another Super Bowl. Just feels frustrating that we are continuing to mess with our cap problems to desperately try and be kings of shit mountain and not compete with the NFC at large.
I don't know if it's age or what, but Evans just isn't the same contested catch artist that he used to be. He used to be able to catch literally everything, and now he's dropping a lot.
24 points to win. Thats what the defense needs.
I dont trust baker to get us 24 points. Especially when he cant hit a long pass.
We left 2 easy tds on the field today.
Yup. Weāve looked good against every team except for the top tier of the league.
The teams we lost to are combined 10-1. With potentially being 11-1.
This was bad, no doubt. Hopefully this will put us in our place and weāll get things right moving forward.
I still love the Bucs and never gave up hope because as we all know, Itās A Bucs Life š¤·š»āāļø
I am going to say this straight up
We are going to get DEMOLISHED by the Bills.
This team can't compete with legitimate teams like Eagles, Lions, Bills, 9ers...
Which means...if we lose next game vs Falcons we will go to a tricky Houston team with 3 straight losses
So we better fucking beat the birds next week
........... god i hate this game today, what a shitty game, nothing works
Yep. Everyone is gonna bitch and say the play calling is terrible. But Baker missing those open guys is what did us in. A bunch of those were on 3rd.
We just got beat by a better and more complete team. Lions are a legit top 5 team in the league. Outside of the top tier of the league, weāve looked like a good team. 3-2 is still overachieving so far.
Baker and the offense hasn't had a great game by any stretch, but this clock management borders on malpractice.
The Bucs are still better than the rest of the clown car that is the NFC South, but that might only be good enough to get run over by the 5 seed in the wild card game again.
#TeamCreamDream š„²
Lions might be top 5 team in the nfl right now. Next week will tell us where we are.
Last time I seen a Bucs quarterback overthrow our receivers that many times was Brady in the first 4 weeks of 2020 season
This defense will continue being bad, as long as Ryan Neal is starting.
Baker was 0/8 on deep throws

Kick the crap out of? Our wins against the bad teams werenāt even super decisive
Repeat of last year sounds terrible.
The worst kind of hell that keeps Bowles around.
Game was closer than it looks. If the Bucs connected on like 3-5 key plays it wouldve been a different ball game. Thing learned from this game is the team needs to work more on the deep ball.
You mean the run up the A gap for 2 yards.
Garbage calls against Bucs.. Not to mention countless no calls on tackles when Detroit was using their helmets. One of the worst Bucs games Iv'e ever seen in my life
Honestly, playcalling is still kind of out there. It's 3rd and 2 down 2 scores. Maybe don't drop a 50 yard bomb that hasn't worked all day.
Or put the comeback on the back of Vaughn with runs up the gut.
When we run we can only get one or two yards, when we only need one or two yards let throw incomplete deep.
We hyped our selves up after beating shitty teams. We are not that good of a team.

Some of the worst offensive playcalling/execution ive seen since we got shutout by the Saints
What a fucking putrid offensive performance today. Mike has forgotten how to catch the ball any time we play a team worth a shit. Defense can do its job if the offense does theirs. Get it tf together man. Games only get tougher going forward.
And if you don't like that, you don't like creamsicle-wearing Tampa Bay Buccaneers football
I moved to Florida in '99 and chose the Bucs. If the jerseys were still creamsicle at the time, I probably would have been a fins fan lol. Burn those ugly things.
This coaching is not it
why are you guys wearing those unis? they are so bad-florida fan
Because we like them?
Go fuck yourself ya cunt
In all honesty, Iām not used to seeing too many wins in the white and orange. Iāll be happy to see pewter next week in Atlanta.
The bye week killed the teams momentum. I saw this coming. Didn't think it'd be this bad.
The bye week killed our momentum last year too after the big win in Germany
The Lions are also a really good team. Weāre pretty mediocre.
Mike Evans is checked out. Dude does not want to be here.
I mean, I wouldn't want to play for a team that I've given everything to and they don't want to offer me a decent contract.
He wants to get paid. These stats aren't gonna do it.
2020 Bucs were š„ after the bye āļø
I believe!
two measly field goals lmao.
Well shit. Gg Dan.
It's a pretty upsetting loss today, guys. No TDs defense held out, our offense was trash today. Got a lot of work that needs to be done to improve.
We played like shit. The ball not getting to the receiver.
Bucs will be drafting a QB rd1
Fuck no, it has to be OL.
Sadly weāre gonna have a middle of the pack pick and not get the best qbs
Licht will trade up if thereās someone he likes
And thatās why we shouldnāt pay Baker big bucks. That many shots in a row and canāt hit a single one of them
He should be the backup the rest of the year. Spinning your tires to 8-9 is such a fucking waste
Not even close on any of those last few attempts. My word.
I gotta give Baker a little bit of credit. I definitely didn't think he'd make it to week 6 before having a bad game.
Eagles game was week 3
Canāt wait to win next week and hear how great we are while trying to suppress this disappointment when play against decent contenders
Baker clearly hurt. Season's over
Damn that was depressing
Missed opportunities and piss poor 3rd down efficiency on offense and defense
0/8 deep shots by baker today. Awful. Abysmal
Ahh.. why can't we have nice things? š
Baker ass
#FTS!!!!
name one thing that worked today and was not utter shit? nah nah, you can't say camarda that's obvious besides that? anything? yeah What a shitty game. Wow. Getting drunk to forget games. Looks like 2014 is back on the menu
Defence looked good canāt expect them to play 75% of the game
Lavonte still being one of the best LBs in the league.
True!Thanks for sharing a bit of positivity
Defense was doing work but they were the only ones apparently
Nah, they allowed a bunch of 3rd and longs and Lions O seemed dominant most of the game
Kancey was pretty good I guess.
Oh yeah! That's definitely worthy of mentioning I can't believe i forgot about it Thanks!
This team just isn't good, man. Our wins are against dookie teams.
It looks like we make the throws vs bad teams.
Yea we're legit slightly above average and that's it lmao, not gonna get us anywhere this season
Maybe the top of a bad division, at best
This is all forgotten if we beat the bills in two weeks lol
lol indeed Bet we lose to Falcons
Iāve never been so sure about something not happening in my life
Back to reality šŖ
Honestly I blame the uniforms
0/7 on deep passes today
Iām sure the numbers on the season arenāt impressive either.
Didn't Brady have an awful deep ball streak early in 2020? I think the chemistry is just not there yet still.
Lightning time
And here I was hoping McAfee would have to talk highly of us tomorrowā¦
Our line is gonna get Baker killed before this season is over.
Before you shit on Baker keep in mind how bad our O-line is and how good their pass rush is, Baker has so little time for these passes
Heās fucking overthrowing by like 15 yards, stfu
Yeah immense defensive pressure is decreasing his accuracy because heās forced to get the ball out quicker instead of being able to line up and deliver it
No itās not stop lying
What a terrible game
Baker overthrew everything tonight and batted passes smh
Evans wasnāt doing him any favors today either
hope we come out of this with some lessons, specifically on offense
We wonāt. Our first play call next game is going to be a run up the middle on first
Once again it's like watching the blind leading the blind.
God dammit baker hurt again
Shouldāve fucking gone for it on 4th and 2 with like 8 mins left. This is what happens when you wait too long to try and win a game
I get he's under pressure but damn baker's accuracy on that drive was terrible.
Baker couldn't hit the broadside of a barn bro wtf
His hurt it seems
Then he shouldn't be in the game if he can't get the ball within 5 yards of a receiver during a comeback attempt
Not one shot underneath

Makes them feel good about themselves.
Cus why would anybody root for the sorry ass bucs
Because pirates
Congrats on being relevant for the first time in like 50 years
How many super bowls Detroit won? Refresh my memory
I thought madden was cappin' with baker not being able to hit deep shots but fuck was I wrong
Our pass protection is overrated AF.
Who ever rated it good?
People thought it was good outside of Wirfs?
Is Mike Evans on the bench? No passes to the number 1?
Baker looks hurt
No he looks like he has the last 3 years. Soft schedule tricked yall
Probably Gonna need another bye to recover after this game. I know I do
We are a mediocre team. We can beat the bad teams, but canāt beat the good teams
I would like it if we actually made a good team earn it though. Gotten our teeth kicked in twice at home this year by teams we would have to contend with if we want to win another Super Bowl. Just feels frustrating that we are continuing to mess with our cap problems to desperately try and be kings of shit mountain and not compete with the NFC at large.
Bad coaching is bad coaching. We had no passion out there. Bowles is the problem. Heās been a problem and will continue to be a problem.
How much you wanna bet Bowles kicks a field goal šš
I donāt think he could get his leg up that high
I don't know if it's age or what, but Evans just isn't the same contested catch artist that he used to be. He used to be able to catch literally everything, and now he's dropping a lot.
It seems like he does better on contested plays than ones where he's wide open.
Where was this fire the first 3 1/2 quarters?
We didn't run this drive, and went for it on 4th and short. You can't get this if you don't try to actually win.
Thompkins is not a good receiver or a returner. He's a waste of a roster spot.
Got two timeouts Check it down?
One would think
How many times we seen the offense move the ball in the last 2 mins
Baker canāt hit deep shots. 5 different passes just out of range
and you saw the palmer otherthrows..?
Yes. They were overthrows
He's either hurt or that, idk why the downvotes when he hasn't hit shit all day
Guess they donāt like the truth. Heās 0/6 on deep balls
Those were dimes? Make sure your tv isnāt off
mayfield dead
Godwin taking a beating this game.
JUST SIT MIKE AT THIS POINT LOL DUDE IS PLAYING LIKE ASS OBVIUSLY HURT
Get those dB the fuck out of there bro
They didn't "make the trip from Detroit" you shit wagons, they made the trip from Seffner.
Nobody would willingly live in Detroit if they had a choice. Itās an armpit.
24 points to win. Thats what the defense needs. I dont trust baker to get us 24 points. Especially when he cant hit a long pass. We left 2 easy tds on the field today.
ok bakers arm is fucked
He's still throwing it though
Christ Mikeā¦
Before everyone gets all doom and gloom, just remember that this same Lions team beat the Chiefs a few weeks ago, this aināt a pushover team
The Chiefs are not the Chiefs of 2-3 years ago anymore.
Yup. Weāve looked good against every team except for the top tier of the league. The teams we lost to are combined 10-1. With potentially being 11-1.
This was bad, no doubt. Hopefully this will put us in our place and weāll get things right moving forward. I still love the Bucs and never gave up hope because as we all know, Itās A Bucs Life š¤·š»āāļø
[Live look in the locker room after the game](https://youtu.be/RaDIOjalV7Q?si=BdG4hNmpcPYcxWnj)
I don't think the lions are the better team. Just way better coaching/play calling
So on the plus side even if we lose, so did the rest of the NFC south.
This is an example of the bye week screwing us - we were clicking before the break. Now we look like weāre back to before week 1. š¤¬
I wouldnāt say our offense was clicking. We scored like 20 points a game
And look at us today lol
This is an example of playing a superior team.
I honestly don't think the lions are the better team, just better coaching/play calling
Those matterā¦a lot.
Honestly, weāre much better than this
Is chili a soup? Making comfort food to ease the pain
More of a stew I think. But it's good no matter what you call it.
I am going to say this straight up We are going to get DEMOLISHED by the Bills. This team can't compete with legitimate teams like Eagles, Lions, Bills, 9ers... Which means...if we lose next game vs Falcons we will go to a tricky Houston team with 3 straight losses So we better fucking beat the birds next week ........... god i hate this game today, what a shitty game, nothing works
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
This offense is ass cheeks.
Does Trask start next week?
Nah this is the first truly bad game Baker has had. He's just been off the whole game.
Everyone get ready to back into another wildcard weekend loss
This is like peak Chicago Bears offense
too little, too fucking late.
Mayfieldās 5 overthrows and the game is wildly different. Secondary with a bad game
Yep. Everyone is gonna bitch and say the play calling is terrible. But Baker missing those open guys is what did us in. A bunch of those were on 3rd. We just got beat by a better and more complete team. Lions are a legit top 5 team in the league.

This is what happens when you try and Bake with a creamsicleā¦. It meltsā¦.
Shocked heās not punting
People in Tampa should honestly be ashamed to get the away team to have majority is a joke the area honestly doesnāt deserve the team
Not from the area but been a fan since I was kid just get so frustrated hearing cheers for the other team lol I apologize my comment was pretty salty
The transplants all want to live here, but none of them want to become part of the community.
Breaking news: people from shitty northern cities move to florida
Did you watch the lions play the packers buddy.
Welp. It's been real yall. The only "highlight" and bright side for us today was the creamsicle orange lol. Yall have a good night. See ya next week.
Coaches lost the game in the second half
Almost 2 minutes off the clock to gain 30 yards
i will be mad for a while about not going on 4th and 2 ealrier FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK I HATE THIS GAME SO FUCKING MUCH
No fuckin urgency.
This is why I hate the creamsicles, this is the exact type of performance I associate with them.
Donāt worry, weāve had many of these in pewter too
Not like they did in the creamsicles.
Yeah this was an awful way to bring them back
THEY PICKED UP THE FLAG, HE LED WITH HIS HELMET
Sport is too soft. That hit was clean
You canāt lead with your helmet, itās plain as day in the rulebook
Exact same play happened in Niners game today, they called it a penalty
Cost them the game
It did
So why didnāt we do that last drive?
And the crowd(lions) goes wild!!
baker is just off todayā¦
Bucs fan here. Get used to it
How do they wait to make a call until after they see the replay. Seriously fuck the refs
Godwin is tough
