Tampa Bay takes the opening drive and marches down the field like the Birds' D isn't even there. smh

7-0, Bucs, with 9:44 left in the 1st qtr

Another 3-and-out by the Birds' O.

I was mad that I had something else to attend this afternoon, and would miss more than half of the game. Now, I'm thinking I might be saved from some frustration.

a sack by Graham, and a dropped pass on 3rd & 15, and the Birds' D stops the Bucs for the 1st time today on their 3rd offensive drive

Iggles look overmatched on both sides
They’re beat up but it feels like they were way overhyped this year. This is the same team that finished 1-6 last season.

And now DeJean fumbles a punt after the D finally gets a stop. 21-0 here.

And then the Birds' special teams screw up. They shove the gunner right into the punt returner, who is hit trying to make a FC, but fumbles because of the hit, and the Bucs recover. You can't make this crap up

SMH. If they don’t start playing w some pride the Bucs will win 42-0 only because they called off the dogs
