Ask a question

An interception by (who else?) Ronde Barber gave the Bucs offense a short field, and Garcia, looking a bit more into the game, found Michael Clayton for a 10-yard score to cut the Jaguars’ lead to 10-7. Clayton, in fact, had a key reception earlier in the drive to keep it going.
So, we come back to the annual question: is Clayton ready to be a regular contributor to the offense again? It would certainly seem important, given Joey Galloway’s absence to this point, which is not a good sign at all for the Bucs.
Meanwhile, the Bucs defense, keyed mostly by first-teamers, forced a three-and-out and Garcia will have a chance to leave the game with a lead-claiming drive just before half.
Update: OK, forget that. Brian Griese is the guy with the chance to give the Bucs the halftime edge

I think we need to start worrying about PK Matt Bryant, how do you miss a easy 25yd field goal? That is his 3rd miss out of 5 tries

Garcia was rusty, kinda thought he would be. Griese was sloppy, over thorwing Stovall and dumb throw in the endzone. Bryant missed a easy FG. Other than all that we are playing good D and Stovall looks good.

Have we learned anything from previous years? We continue throwing dink donk passes.Brooks consistently miss tackles.D.Jackson is a bust, plays scared. M.Clayton continues to drop passes.M.Stovall has the size and height but doesn’t use it…ask Coston from N.O. how to? B.Grieses plays scared,will throw the ball to opponents.We’re not a threat w/the long ball w/o Galloway.Pass rush sucks.M.Bryant AKA Gramatica. B.Clark is a steal…he hustles,plays heads up ball and is consistent. C.Smith is a punt returner who plays to win, has heart and determination. We had the opporyunity to pick up play makers during the off season.Garcia’s attitude is…go get Favre. I rest my case.
