Heading out to tailgate in a few minutes.

Bucs put 8 in the box, stop Turner and force Ryan to win game.
Ryan throws 3 pix, his conterpart Griese throws 3 TDs. Graham and Dunn combine for 250+.
Bucs dominate the hapless birds 27-3.

I hope last week was an abiration for Atl. and that NO is the real deal meaning the Bucs played a good opponent close on the road. Honestly Griese starting scares the fuck out of me. TB can ill afford two division losses this early.

Responding to my own thread to eliminate my *666th* post, good gawd that is not a good sign.

Your front seven is clearly better than the Lions front seven so you should at least not allow the Falcons to run for three bills. I think Turner is legit with his combination of speed and strength. He's going to keep the Falcons in game unless the other team is totally committed to shutting down the running game. Logic would tell you that when facing a team with a rookie QB and a top tier running back...you take away the sure thing and let the youngster try to beat you. Ryan was okay last week but it was the ground game that lead to their Week 1 win. I don't think he's going win games on his own at this early stage in his career. If teams can keep Turner from running wild, you should be able to beat the Falcons.

Turner is the new Bo Jackson.

The First 3,000 yd rushing season is within his grasp. 25 TDs is a given.

All hail the Lord of the game
