  • Perhaps WCF is serviced so well by Millen that he can't bring himself to fire him.

    • McNabb got landed on by 3 Steelers in the first half, was rolling his shoulder. Played the rest of the half, but isn't back in the 3rd Q.

      Kolb is in. Well, until the ball popped up in the air when the receiver was hit, and Polamalu got the diving pick. (Upon review play stands.)

        Maybe we'll get Jake Plummer as well as part of the deal!

            The Bucs then take it down the field against an exhausted Bears defense for the win.
            As far as I'm concerned, it was karmic retribution for the very first play from scrimmage of the game, where Chicago initiated extracurriculars and Tampa got flagged.

            Still, I'm perfectly willing to admit we stole this one, given how Graham & Dunn couldn't run worth for **** against the Bears D. It's a refreshing change considering we often blow the tight ones.

            I'm torn. It'd be nice to get something back for Garcia instead of just letting him go after the season, but Griese hasn't played the efficient, error-free ball he played in his last go-around here yet. He pulled the win out of his ass today but also did a LOT to put us in trouble, and if he continues in this vacillatory manner I'm sure I won't be the only one calling for Gruden to put Garcia back in. (I'm still hoping the situation improves once we get Davin Joseph back, hopefully next week.)

                • I've gotta say, I have massively underestimated the Philly defense. Very impressive.

                    • Where was the NE defense during all that? I understand that an "any given Sunday" upset was possible, especially with Brady down, but this was a rout.

                      WTF happened in that game?

                        Basically they ran a college offense and NE didn't have a clue how to react. Ronnie Brown took several direct snaps with Pennington lined up as a WR. Then Brown optioned to Ricky, kept it, or threw. A couple of times the defense wasn't even ready for the snap because they were waiting for Pennington to come under center and he never did.

                        Don't get me wrong, the NE D didn't play well anyway, but that's where most of the scoring came from.

                                Imran, I ask for your input, do you feel it is more Miami doing a great football job or more a new England imploding and Miami lucking out?

                                Do you feel Miami can put together a good year?
