That last INT was also a fantastic play by the Bucs DB, getting his hand in there for the deflection and the second player being there to grab it.

I still think Thomas gets it together and becomes a valuable piece. But yeah, that was just horrible.

It’s possible the learning curve is just really steep for a rookie at that position in this offense.

I come away from this game thinking the Bucs D is top tier. Possibly the best in the league. Because of the record they fly under the radar a bit. But their ability to apply massive pressure up the middle took Caleb completely off his game once they decided to bring it. Other teams will try it now, but I’m thinking few can pull it off like the Bucs. Plus their run D is legit. Any holes are plugged immediately. You just cannot pry open a lane to run through and expect it to stay open long enough. Their offense is stinky. Mayfield is game, but there aren’t any reliable targets. We put them down early and it limited their ability to rely on the run, which is the strong suit. When they needed to throw late - that’s when we got our best pressure.

They called more than one phantom hold.

Yeah I thought he came back. Burden definitely concussed

I had no doubts. Never once thought we were going to “blow it.” Honestly can’t figure out why you guys are so worried. 😒

…Santos restores sanity on the last play.

On a night everything has gone wrong…

OL has indeed been dominated.

Pressure every time he drops back.

I give full props to the Bucs’ defense. They came to play and took our best punch.

It’s the night from hell.

My GOD.

God, for a few first downs here.
