Joe hopes Bucs fans hit rewind tonight and took a second and third look at the Buccaneers’ first-team defense against the Kansas City Chiefs.
Joe wept in ecstasy.
The defense was just about perfect. The Chiefs went 3-and-out on in the first two series; their six plays totaled 13 yards.
Rueben Bain was a menace. Calijah Kancey looked explosive and Zyon McCollum made a play. Rookie nickel cornerback Keionte Scott made his presence felt.
Todd Bowles seemed very pleased with the results after the game. He should be.
It was only two series, and the Chiefs were missing offensive linemen and Patrick Mahomes. But Joe will take the success without a grain of salt. It was damn encouraging.
