Kind of a shitty back to Earth loss for the Bucs. It's not time to go into panic mode, but our lack of depth at corner showed Sunday. Badly. I was not expecting Grimes to not suit up and it hurt us badly and he showed how valuable he is. Hargreaves is okay, but he hasn't shown enough for a player picked as high as he was and he ended up getting injured too. Robert McClain can't cover anyone (I know he had a pick six against Chicago, big whoop), Ryan Smith should never see snaps on defense. It's just ugly, we should've looked at some better veteran depth earlier in the offseason. Our safeties didn't fair too much better, especially Chris Conte who I'm honestly tired of seeing in the starting lineup every week. Even with being signed just weeks ago, T.J. Ward already looks like our best safety and needs more snaps ASAP. ​The offense is still a work in progress. The line struggled, especially the interior and never gave our run game a chance. Jameis and D-Jax don't look totally on the same page despite connecting for their first TD. Jameis' accuracy for the game was actually pretty damn good for the most part, he just made several stupid hero ball throws. His last pick showed a wide open O.J. Howard but he forced it to Evans in triple coverage down the field instead.

​I think San Antonio is still 2nd best in the West, IMO. Houston and OKC are pretty darn close for 3rd and 4th.

​I think 9/11 was for sure some form of inside job. A lot of things just don't add up and the United States government is already known to have planned fake terrorist attacks in the 1960s to give them a reason to invade Cuba. So this isn't new to the United States at all.

Losing Brent Grimes hurt way more than expected, our corner depth is poor and was exposed without him. Honestly, what has me concerned is not how poorly we played but how many starters/key players on defense got injured. Our defense was completely mauled to injury in just the matter of a week. I'm hoping Lavonte David's injury is not as bad as it seems or else this season may be going up in smoke before it even starts.

I like that the Thunder are trying their best to go for it all, even if the odds are slim. Good on them. I just feel that they deplated a decent amount of depth to add stars and it won't be enough to beat Golden State who has the stars and depth. But again, I like that they are actually trying instead of moping and saying we'll never beat them anyways.

I want to rant a bit here about what the president just recently said. I'm not going to get into any political stuff, I just want to speak on this issue that's really bothering me. ​My stance on the protesting of the national anthem is pretty simple, and I feel like this is a prime example of true freedom being lost for some weird sense of pride. Listen, it's okay to love your country and wave your flag but players kneeling for the anthem to send a social message, is their right whether you agree with it or not. If you love America and you believe the troops die for your freedom, then you shouldn't be trying to oppress people's freedom to peacefully protest. Something that has been done in this country for a long time and is a staple of a lot of social right movements in this country. For the president of this country to publicly call for citizens of this country to lose their jobs for legally expressing their freedom, is just completely and utterly unacceptable. This kind of nonsense is closer to North Korean ideologies than American. This country is supposed to be great because of the freedom it allows it's people. But that suddenly disappears when it comes to a flag. I think Colin Kaepernick's initial decision to take this public stance has gone farther than ever expected and it's starting to shed light on social issues a lot of people just don't want to talk about. All I'll say is the president refers to Nazi white supremacists who run people over as "fine people", but black players who peacefully protest are called "sons of a bitches." I'm a white man and I can even see how sad this is. The funny thing is, but running his mouth and disrespecting players of the NFL I expect to see the biggest anthem protest so far later today for Week 3 games. I know DeSean Jackson is planning something, and a lot of players from different sports have spoken out lately against this. LeBron's reaction video was honestly worded so well and I give mad props to him for speaking out, this is from someone who has always kind of "hated" on him in his career. So he's really just hurting his own agenda, or maybe this is what he really wants to keep dividing us in a time where we need to be united.

​I think Indianapolis has quietly been the worst run franchise in the NFL. They have a younger QB and they are wasting his prime in a sad pathetic fashion,

I'll go on about the Bucs' performance, it was an awesome win and it was the first game I've attended live since 2012. I love that the Bucs defense picked up where they left off last season. I geniunely think we have one of the more underrated defenses in the league, ever since the players settled into Mike Smith's defense in the middle of the year last year we have been forcing turnovers left and right while keeping plays in front of us and not giving up those big explosive plays. ​It was truly tough to gauge our offense yesterday because we basically shut everything down somewhat early with the game getting out of hand. Jameis still needs to work on his deep ball accuracy it's his biggest issue at the moment (yes, even over INTs, which he didn't throw one yesterday), he missed D-Jax twice down the field and he also had Sims open for a TD and overthrew him. We also didn't get a chance to really show off most of our weapons. Mike Evans did what he does, but Jackson, Humphries, Godwin, Howard and Brate were all quiet. But just having all these guys is a huge difference, defenses can no longer focus all their attention to keeping Evans under control. Our run game managed 117 yards, but it wasn't super efficient. We ran the ball a lot with a big lead in the 2nd half. Peyton Barber looked like our best back yesterday, but he didn't get any touches until the 4th when the Bears defense was already worn down by the Tampa heat and they were losing by 29 points, so it was unlikely we saw maximum effort (Deadpool would've been disappointed) by that defense. ​Good win, on to Minnesota.

The defense kind of picked up where they left off last year, forcing a ton of turnovers and keeping everything in front of them.

​At least that game had the entertaining Watson run.

Brian Hoyer threw the ball 27 times for a whopping total of 99 yards, LOL!

The Saints have seemed to enjoy trading away Brees' favorite targets, I'm surprised he is as loyal as he is. But that defense is just rough, it's been the downfall of the majority of Brees' tenure in New Orleans.

So the NBA is supposedly going to make changes to the lottery that includes the three teams with the worst record will all have the same odds of getting the #1 pick. Am I the only one who thinks this will incentivise teams to tank more? More spots to tank for now...

The Bucs didn't play so it was kind of a boring weekend, even with a hurricane passing over. I don't like to take away too much from Week 1 but holy hell are the Colts a shit show. I know a lot of people like to hate on Andrew Luck, but that man is the only thing going for that team and they should honestly consider not playing him at all this year if he's not healthy, he's just going to get even more beat up and lose a bunch of games. Maybe they can suck bad enough to draft someone decent to pair with Luck in 2018 but probably not. The Colts might low key be the worst drafting team in the league, looking at all their past first round picks they ALL are busts except for Luck. The last player they took in the 1st that isn't a bust was freakin' Dallas Clark in 2003.

I feel like Kathleen Kennedy is just too difficult to work with for certain directors. She wants to hire someone to make HER vision and a lot of directors really don't like having their creativity limited. However, these guys should know what they're getting into when they sign on to direct a Star Wars movie.

​As a fan of the team who has Ryan Shitzpatrick as the backup QB, I'd say HELL NO to having him over Kap. Shitzmagic looked like a complete turd in the preseason he was 21/40 for 153 yards with no TDs and 2 INTs. He showed no ability to move the ball whatsoever and clearly looks like an old geezer in a young man's game. Everything I heard indicated that Ryan Griffin was well on his way to beat out the old geezer for the backup job until he got hurt. I would for sure take Kap, but Tampa has a strong military presence and people whined when Mike Evans sat once so it won't happen. My hope is Griffin gets healthy so we can cut Shitzpatrick and let him retire already.

Are you going to tell me Brock Osweiler is better than Kap? Kap had a 16:4 TD:INT ratio in 12 games, where Brock had a 15:16 TD:INT ratio in 15 games with better talent on offense. Nobody is saying Kap is an elite QB, but to say he's unsigned simply because he sucks is ignorant. I'll tell you as a Bucs fan that I'd rather have Kap backing up Jameis than Shitzpatrick. It's totally about his protest, and while teams have the right to avoid him for that you can't seriously try and tell me he's not good enough to be on a roster in the NFL. It's about publicity, not football with this situation.

​This, people are at the stadium to watch a football game not worship a piece of cloth.

​He's a Buc now. I'm good with it, I was okay with Tandy and Conte to start the season so even if he doesn't win the job at some point he provides experience and depth for a team hoping to compete for the first time in a while.

I love how Phil changed his sig pic to McGregor taunting Mayweather in the same fight that he got his pansy ass whooped up in.

I don't buy the Lakers BS. The national media would have you believing every star player is dying to play for the Lakers but honestly nobody really does. I don't know why LeBron would want to be the Warriors bitch before they even get to the Finals, especially since the team he'd be joining is a young rebuilding one.

​More like Daredevil and Iron Fist with Luke Cage and Jessica Jones as support. It's kind of natural with the big bad being the Hand and them having a huge role in those series while having no part in the other two. ​My thoughts on Defenders.... ​

​Yeah, but IT did that in a completely different offense while being the go to guy. Tbh I'm not sure how effective he's going to be having to defer to LeBron now. Not to mention, I think it's a huge downgrade in the defensive matchup against Curry. One of the things the Cavs have had going for them in the Finals is that Kyrie has stepped up on both ends of the floor against Steph and I'm not sure tiny Isaiah can put up much of a fight at all defensively, at least having Crowder may give them more options for Durant and Klay. Plus there is questions about IT's hip too. I think it's a short term downgrade but the Cavs are in a better position should LeBron bolt now, they can just let IT walk to clear up cap space and they have the Brooklyn pick to start a rebuild with. But knowing the dumbass Cavs, they will trade the pick for an overrated All Star vet.

I've only seen the first 3 episodes of Defenders but yeah, way too much buildup for a short series...
