Jimmy Austin Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 Crazy how it is already week 4. This is the last game before the bye week. The Bucs have blown out the Bears a combined 65-17 the last 2 years but this team has much improved and has one of the better defenses in the NFL. Whoever the QB is better be wary of one Khalil Mack. I like the good guys in this one 24-21. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bucsfan333 Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 I think we win by double digits. 31-21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ravishingone Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 I have zero faith in the Bucs defense, especially on the road. It's ashame because it isn't a personnel issue. I m very concerned about the Bears misdirection confusing the crap out of this offense. Is it coincidence the last time this team ran the ball consistently there wasn't an oline rotation at a guard position? Maybe Head Coach Koetter can start to help out his defense because quite frankly it is at the bottom of the barrel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We held Philly to 21. We should hold the Bears to 10. But I think they'll score a bit more than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mld Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 agree with bucsfan. trubisky isn't very good he will score a few cause our defense is terrible but high teens low 20's. 27-20 bucs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ravishingone Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 Sorry Coach Smith this is your problem. This is why I have little faith with this defense against any offense right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calibucsfan Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 So last game against Pittsburgh I noticed something. You know how Mike Tomlin kept saying all week "we will not let Fitz be comfortable"? Well he did just that. At one point, I don't know if you guys noticed, but the Steelers defense was blitzing on every single down. And it was working. Chicago on the other hand has a much better defense and I am sure they saw the tape on that. Pretty much you have to be an idiot to give Fitz an open clean pocket. You would be begging for him to pick you apart. I see the same strategy being used by the Bears. Our O-line has to step up along with all the backs to pick up these blitzes, and Fitz cannot crumble under pressure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of that was just miscommunication between the O-line Smith played much better than Beneoch at RG so they may switch. I feel Monken will add in more max protect with OJ on the field to help mitigate that. (or that's what I would do anyways). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

indifference Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 Very winnable game. Cannot turn the ball over a few times though and expect to win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

REDandPEWTER Posted September 27, 2018 Share Posted September 27, 2018 Bucs need to establish a ground game but RO Jo has been inactive Bc he was the worst back in camp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
