Latest QB to light up the Bucs.
Here we go again.
Way, way, way too often over the past few years, Joe learns after a loss that a quarterback has set a record against the Bucs’ defense. If the Bucs had a defensive-minded coach, maybe this wouldn’t bother Joe so much.
Oh, wait.
Whether it was last year with Kirk “509” Cousins or this year with Josh Allen being part of six touchdowns (three passing, three running), it seems way too often an opposing quarterback is setting a record.
Hello, Matt Stafford.
Arguably the hottest quarterback in the league started tonight’s game hot as a firecracker. Stafford just sliced and diced the Bucs defense up like a surgeon.
It almost looked like Stafford was playing in a seven-on-seven game or was in the middle of a walk-through practice. Stafford completed his first 12 passes. First 12! It was 12:31 of the second quarter when one of his passes finally hit the turf of SoFi Stadium.
Stafford on Sunday night against the Bucs also saw him set a streak of of 273 pass attempts without an interception, the longest streak in Rams history and the longest streak in the NFL this season, and the longest streak of his career.
And Stafford set this against the big-play Bucs defense.
Joe would be truly worried about the Bucs playoff hopes if they didn’t have a defensive-minded head coach.
Isn’t it time that the Bucs defense quit allowing opposing quarterbacks to set records against them? Where is the pride?
