TNF Discussion: Buccaneers at Falcons - Week 5

[Mike FF Today 721]

Inactives -

Buccaneers: S Antoine Winfield Jr., WR Trey Palmer, WR Jalen McMillan, DL Calijah Kancey, T Luke Goedeke, TE Devin Culp, P Jake Camarda

Falcons: OL Elijah Wilkinson, DL Kentavius Street, DL Brandon Dorlus, OL Brandon Parker, OL Jovaughn Gwyn, RB Jase McClellan, LB Troy Andersen

Line: ATL -2.5
Total: 43.5

[nobody 2,566]

Tampa Bay 

Last Week: beat the Eagles 33-16, Next week @ the saints

Tampa Bay has a couple of distractions with hurricane Helene and Mayfield picking fights with Tom Brady

Atlanta

Last Week: beat the Saints 26-24, Next week @ the panthers

Prediction is that both teams come out flat and the game is pretty sloppy.  Atlanta covers the -2.5.

Kirk Cousins vs. Todd Bowles defenses in his career:

 

2014: 2 TD/3 INT in loss to Cardinals

2015: 1 TD/2 INT in loss to Jets

2018: 2 TD/0 INT in win over Jets

2020: 1 TD/0 INT in loss to Bucs

2023: 2 TD/1 INT in loss to Bucs

 

8 TDs/6 INT in five games, 1-4 record for Cousins

 

 

I'll take the Bucs.... 19-16

[Mike FF Today 721]

Falcons score on their opening drive...

Cousins: 3/4, 65-1
London: 2-33-1
Pitts: 1-32-0

[Hardcore troubadour 14,944]

Hard to believe that Evans went in the same draft as ODB. What a career.

He's seen some bad things.

Did the Falcons go for it on fourth down ?

One of the best kickers in football, went 4 for 4 last week including a 58 yarder & they go for it on fourth an 9 ?

Yes, Younghoe Koo is my kicker!

DAYUM!

[Hardcore troubadour 14,944]

I guess Pitts’ work is done for the day. 

[BufordT 427]

Drake London finally off to a hot start gets concussed. Gotta love it

[Hardcore troubadour 14,944]

London too. 

[Mike FF Today 721]

Mike Evans with TD No.2: 4-49-2

[LVSaint429 16]

Mayfield has been razor sharp so far. With him being so hot & Falcons having short week to prepare for him, should’ve seen this  coming!

[nobody 2,566]

Cousins already has 200 yards passing with 8 minutes left in the 2nd quarter.

[Mike FF Today 721]

Not sure what the hell the Bucs were thinking on that challenge?

[BufordT 427]

Drake London is back in the game after going into the blue tent for a concussion and then going to the locker room. Don’t see that very often. He’s sure to be a decoy only rest of game

Nah.  I finally benched his worthless ass so I predict a 100yd night with at least 1 TD.

 

[Mike FF Today 721]

5 combined TDs for the QBs in the first half...

Cousins: 21/28, 253-2-0
Mayfield: 12/15, 131-3-0

[kilroy69 1,216]

We are in 2024. Amazon is worth more than the GDP of some countries. Yet they have animated replays of the scoring drives that looks like madden 1995 

[LVSaint429 16]

That sack gave an ugly twist on Mayfield’s leg. He walked off on his own but gonna worry until I see him back out there 

[weepaws 3,157]

That D Mooney was worth the money.  Great steal.

Praise the Lord, Cousins is a devoted Christian.   Amen brother. 

[nobody 2,566]

Oh, bucky

[Serenity Now 63]

Final drive of the game and Bijian is on the sidelines. Is he hurt? Did I miss something?

[BufordT 427]

And Atlanta covers the spread. 

[RareN64Dream 21]

That is funny I dropped Kirk Cousins for Sam Darnold in a for fun league and then, he breaks Matt Ryan Falcons record of 503 passing yards in 1 game with 509 yards. My bench was pretty stacked, dang haha.

Nope, his QB passes for over 500 yards and his sorry, pathetic, bigger bust than Kwame Brown, arse still can't top 100 yds or score a TD

[TBayXXXVII 2,484]

That certainly was a great defensive effort.

[Nomad99 699]

I had Hurts on bye this week.....had to play my back-up

My opponent had cousins on the bench and starting Daniels. Thinking I got a break, but way Daniels is playing who knows
