I did! It was cool! just when I think they can't get any bigger, they surprise me with something like this. Look at the parts Moss has played in the big games over the last couple of seasons-incredible. Portis is a BLOCKER

My random thoughts on the game:

-Great overall effort, I said earlier in the week that this could be a statement game and it definitely was.

-The offense appears to finally be clicking. 1000 yards of offense the last 2 weeks.

-This game was eerily similar to the first Bucs-Skins matchup last year. Two defensive teams where the offenses dominated.

-Good call by the refs for not overturning that fumble. I definitely think it wasn't a fumble, but there wasn't conclusive evidence to overturn it.

-Totally bogus penalty on Moss and Lloyd for that endzone "celebration". Guys pick each other up all the time while celebrating... then the Jags did the same thing later on and didn't get flagged.

-Gotta hand it to the offensive line. They are really coming together. Dockery has been especially impressive. The guards held their own inside and won at the point of attack against one of the strongest interior lines in the league. I really wasn't expecting that. If they keep this up the sky's the limit for this offense.

-Moss is a gamebreaker. Yesterday reminded me alot of his breakout game against Dallas last year. Give him a shot and he's going to make plays like that week in and week out.

-Amazing what a running game and good pass protection will do for a QB, huh? Brunell started off shaky but overall I thought he played a very good game.

-The final score really doesn't show it, but the defense started to show some signs of life. They did a great job at shutting down the run and forced the Jags to be one dimensional.

-Hall is off the hook with me. Frost gets a pass since he's otherwise kicked so well all year.

-I think we're finally starting to see what this offense is capable of. The Jags looked off balance all day. I think Saunders is finally getting in sync with the talent, and the players are finally getting comfortable in what they are trying to do.

I should also add that the huge cutdown on penalties was just great.

Not only did we dominate physically, but mentally we were sharp as well.

Best of all, no injuries today. Important when you consider we're going up against a bye-week-rested Giants team next week.

You say that because the play didn't work. I don't mind at all throwing a flea-flicker on the first play of the game, especially against a defense known to be aggressive.

Agree on everything else you mentioned, especially the secondary. Can we PLEASE get Shawn Springs back now?

no, he's right, you shouldn't run it against a DL that gets that much push anyways, the % of failure is much higher against those DTs, especially that early when they're still fresh.

Mid round? Try 6th and 7th. Great picks.

5th and 6th, and only golston has showed up thusfar.

Personally I liked the early flea-flicker call.

If anything it gets the defense thinking, granted the result wasn't ideal but still, the idea behind it was sound.

I think it's a good sign too that the offense is getting more and more comfortable and Saunders is using more and more of that vaunted 700 page playbook.

We didn't see many trick plays last season until late during our stretch run, and then we saw one almost every week.

no one's as willing to call trick plays and go for it on 4th and 1 as gibbs. phobic about turn overs, but not so much on risky plays.

8. Lloyd----

Lloyd has the strength and build of a crack head but he will come around.

Good thing NY has a lotta crack to be purchased, look for Lloyd to emerge next Sunday.

Little OT, But I saw Gary Clarke the other night on ComCast. Is he sick or on crack?
