And I won money on Harris and Fournette score TDs.

It was a good day!

I can't believe they won this game.

I had this circled as a W at the beginning of the year. Brady is old and the BUCS have fallen off.

But when the injury report looked like a civil war hospital patient roll I figured they would get edged out. Even if the book had the Bucs as 8pt favorites.

I did rage a bit when Mitch checked down to the line of scrimmage on a 3rd and 15, tho.

The real lesson here is the Minkah is expendable.

I saw only the first two drives. How did Kenneth look

Like a future hall of famer

I was really impressed that he changed his pressure behavior in one week. Good throwaways while evading the rush.

Brady missed practice, walk-through and had to fly to Pittsburgh on his own because he attended a sexual predator’s wedding on Friday.

The wedding part is kind of unbelievable to me. What kind of choopy owner gets married during a mid-season game week? Never mind that TB12 isn't one of his players any more, and all the questions him taking time out to attend raises. That's just a morbidly weird situation imo

What's it say about the defensive starters who were out with injury today that the Steelers defense had a great today against Brady of all people? I mean, they couldn't stop 11 people in a golf media center last week and then they come out and look...normal.

The defense wasn't why TB12 was turfing throws.

They played very well, better than expected. But let's not take leave of our senses here.

I watched the Bucs first offense drive and thought it was cool that they looked bad, and figured it wouldn't last. But it did.

That said, the linebackers and front made some big plays, even Bush showed a flash of relevance.

Mitch is a fine backup

Right after he came in Mitch hit a throw to Claypool (iirc),, intermediate level middle of the field to convert a long 3rd dn. The fact that he was not even really taking those shots a month ago is a big part of what got him benched, so that was good to see.
