Its already worked. We have raised our game in the last 3 weeks. I know we have had 2 close wins and a close loss but we are a much better team than we were at the start of year. Theres just a little bit of inconsistancy at the moment but you get that with a young team full of rookies and 2nd year players. Look, no one n Tampa is arrogent enough to thnk we will be competing this year but you need to instill the confidence now to get these pkayers to improve. In 2 or 3 years time with a few good additions to the O Line and D line I think we will have a pretty special team.

1 thing though... I really like Raheem and he is willing to try things like the unsuccessful onside kick yesterday with loads of time left (jeez, how close was that to coming off) but can they PLEASE keep the red flag away from him! I cant remember the last time we went into the last 2 minutes with a TO left.

I also think that we will pick off either ATL or NO in our last game against these 2. Its unusual for us to lose both games to both of them.

I hope you are right. As i've said i'm a fan of the Bucs so i hope you get into the play-offs and I agree in a few years you'll be competing regularly.

I just think there is a difference between bigging up your team and being what could be percieved as arrogant/inflamatory. (I don't neccesarily think it is but just playing devil's advocate). Your not that great yet and i don't think you need to give your opposition any ammunition. You'd be just as well sneaking up on teams.

Quite a few have Osi down as a favourite. Could be on for a Packers v Giants playoff game again?

Yeah, I do get ya. But it was never intended to get at other teams. Raheem has stated that and said on NFLN yesterday that he doesnt know why people are still talking about it 3 weeks after. It hasnt really gone against us so far anyway. Yes ATL were good yesterday but we kept them quiet the majority of the 2nd half. TBF I dont really mind if it riles other teams up either. It has had a positive effect on our players and to say we had 7 starters out yesterday we deffinately give the Falcons a good go.

By the way anyone who was cosidering getting Gamepass for £70 for the rest of the season but was unsure, heres a pic of it all hooked up from the laptop to the TV. Its running through at 2400kbps and is HD quality. It could go at 3000kbps for full HD but my laptop doesnt support that.



Edit: BTW thats on a 40 Inch screen too. Theres no bluring or pixilation. Suppose it depends on your connection though.

I was looking to do something similar myself, got GamePass and a HD-ready TV with a VGA port.

And thats the end result?! Bloody brilliant that!

Watching the Cowboys v Packers game.....just what the hell is up with Dallas this year? Their confidence is just gone, utterly gone.

Re: More NFL Chat : Mon Nov 08, 2010 7:59 pm  

Wade Phillips reportedly fired.

Re: More NFL Chat : Mon Nov 08, 2010 8:07 pm  

Michael Lombardi has just confirmed on Twitter and NFLN are reporting it.

Not surprised at all especially after what JJ said last night.
