Ky Williams might as well be inactive too.

No sense in ever running the ball when there is no pass rush and receivers are running free all over the place.

Rams are pretty clearly the team to beat in the NFC right now. Stafford is playing as well as he ever has & their defense is a problem. They’re certainly a lot of fun to watch!

4th and 2 on your own 28 and you go for it? In the first half!??! Wow. Epic dumb.

Halftime - Rams 31, Bucs 7

Baker is obviously hurt - left shoulder.

Down by 21 and their D not making any stops, they needed a spark there to try to change momentum.  If they punt it away they are likely giving up at leat 3 anyways, so going for it there made some sense.,

Wow.

The Bucs need to find a legitimate backup NFL quarterback. Teddy Two Gloves ain't it.

[plasma george 63]

Stafford to Adams = Stafford to Calvin Johnson,  and I was stupid not to see it at Draft time.  if playoffs go through SOFI,  advantage Rams.

[TBayXXXVII 2,675]

Still waiting.  Game start yet?  Don't recall seeing the Bucs play.  Did the game get moved to tonight?

agreed.  

Baker has historically been fairly healthy, so the need hasnt arisen much of late.   but they also signed some big dollar contracts lately, so maybe its a case where they couldnt sign a good backup because of the contract money that is already outstanding.
