I'm so pumped for this game. I re-watched the 1st game. Between Forbes, BSJ, and Mikey's debut, the DB group struggled. With Lattimore, this will be night and day. I'd completely forgotten about Forbes until I saw him missing tackles and getting torched.
So, so many dumb penalties on defense to give Bucs easy yards and bigs plays negated on offense.
JD5 was nervous and it was obvious. I expected him to do much better. Hopefully he treats this like a regular game and doesn't let the playoff hype get to him. Just go out and execute.
I understand the Bucs have improved as well but if they are expected to see that same Commanders team, they'll be sorely mistaken.

The fact that Lattimore does so well against Evans and since everyone is acting like locking up Evans is a sure thing...makes me think that its not.

34-20 good guys. Baker has two costly turnovers early and the game is never really close.

I like the confidence. Not sure it matches our MO this season, but I'd be ecstatic if that happened.

I think it's important as we head into this match up, at just how far this team has come. Win or lose, if they can play a relatively clean game, I'm fine no matter the outcome.
I don't believe any of us ever expected this team to make it this far into the season. So, we should all keep that in mind. We all know the team is still missing some key pieces to becoming elite.
Let's hope for a competitive game and a win would be pretty damn special. HTTC

Every other playoff game has been a blowout so far, I'm not worried about us getting embarrassed.

We may spot you a game, but we're not going to lose to the same team twice in a season.

I'd say Canfan got the closest. 👍
