Bucs Postgame

Heineken deserves a lot of praise for this game but some of you guys are going way overboard already wanting him to be the starter next year,it’s just 1 game!
And it’s one game he couldn’t even stay on the field for,on a couple of hits that wouldn’t have even fazed the glass like body of RG3.
I don’t see anyway this kid gonna make it thru a 16 game season but we have to move on from Alex Smith,that is for damn sure.
Heiney deserves a chance to be brought back and compete next year but that’s it,we still need to find a qb.

Yeah I was saying this last night as well. Dude played great and I want to keep him around to compete but he’d have to really hit the weight room and bulk to a size like a Romo was. His arm is comparable to a Romo as well, but Day 1 starter? No way lol. If he competes with a rookie and wins the job fine but I’d still rather have a Stafford or Matt Ryan for 2 years.

Kyle Allen and Heineken should both be in the mix and brought back

Let’s just everyone agree Alex Smith needs to retire, if not we absolutely should not consider him an option next year.

I think you have to give the TB o-line credit. They did a good job protecting Brady.

Our running game SUCKED. We couldn't run inside, and we needed a good running game.

Well TB does have the best run D this year.....

For those blaming the defense, we played a pretty good QB who has great weapons and good line in front of him. Brady had a power running game helping him. Tampa defense is also no joke. Despite all of that, we had the ball down by 5 or 6 late in the 4th quarter with plenty of time and could not score. PERIOD. The defense played well enough to win against a very good team.
Heineke looks great. We finally have QB that has the brain, foot work, accurate arm and can scramble. He loves and plays well in our system. He has command of our system. What a concept! I really like this kid. He had no running game and was running for his life.
We need to keep investing building the lines in the draft. It has served us well so far on defense. We need that on offense. Please, no more reaching for a QB or WR. If we had a running game today, we would have won.
It is NOT the defenses fault.

Why is everyone acting like Heineken is some fragile oft injured quarterback who is 5-6 and 131 lbs?

Lets look at his injury history.
College - zero injuries.

NFL - 1) elbow injury in a game he threw 55 passes. He was let go without ever having a chance to prove himself there. Why? Because he was undrafted out of ODU.
2) concussion - again let go because when you are undrafted out of ODU and get injured you also get thrown away.

Last night the O line was atrocious and the guy got banged around so much he needed to go to the locker room - most big strong tough real nfl quarterbacks would come back out with a baseball cap on - he came back out and almost won the game for us.

Quarterbacks get injured guys. Outside of Eli Manning I cannot think of that many who are always healthy. Taylor Heineke having injury issues is a bunch of crap.

The secondary was terrible. They had guys running wide open all night. That isn’t because Brady is great right? That is because our secondary was crap.
We were getting gashed by Fournette. Dude had his best game of the season.
We gave the goat more time than he needed. The pass rush was non existent for the most part.

Our defense is supposed to be the strength of the team. It is where all our resources have gone. Last night it underperformed and the offense over performed.

I think if we play the run stronger, put them in longer 3rd downs...maybe stops a scoring drive or 2. They kinda got gashed.

I see 3 areas on the team where we will see a complete overhaul, Linebackers and Wide Receivers. TE as well. From those 3 position groups I’d say only Logan Thomas, Cole Holcomb and Terry are coming back. It’s gonna be like 10 new guys total between those 3 position groups.

There is no way in hell the league was letting Us win last night. The refs were so one sided it was insane



Why do all you guys think that the league has it in for the WFT? Lol. Seriously what is in it for them?
Also is the theory that the commish is paying the refs to fuck us over?

TE is an area of need over secondary or o line? Nah. We probably need a tight end to pair with or back up Logan but it is far from a problem. O line, WR, mLb, and secondary. We better tighten those for areas the fuck up.
