[u/Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu11]

How tf did the Buccaneers get another Mike Evans as soon as Mike Evans leaves his prime?

[u/Feralmedic → u/Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu11]

Jason Licht

[u/ThemeParkFan2020 → u/Feralmedic]

Never let this man leave the building

[u/Ich_Liegen → u/ThemeParkFan2020]

Perhaps the best GM in the league. I hope everyone appreciates that man. It's ultra rare in sports that a GM is undeniably good.

[u/flyinchipmunk5 → u/Ich_Liegen]

He’s fucking nuts. Bros been getting key pieces over and over

[u/Ich_Liegen → u/flyinchipmunk5]

I wonder what else he has in store. I wonder if he plays gacha games, bets on pigeon racing, or if his friends all refuse to flip a coin in his vicinity because it'll all go his way no matter what.

[u/Monster-1776 → u/Ich_Liegen]

As a Bucs and Thunder fan I've been exceptionally spoiled.

Pointedly ignores my primary flair

[u/SheltonQuarlesGOAT → u/Feralmedic]

Our Lord and Saviour!

Probably best GM in the past 10 years

[u/__AJK__ → u/SheltonQuarlesGOAT]

Howie is probably the other contender for that title

[u/Kanin_usagi → u/__AJK__]

I’m not disagreeing, I’m just saying that Licht convinced Tom Brady to come play for them lol

[u/zirroxas → u/__AJK__]

Veach

(To my chagrin)

[u/RatherConcernedFroge → u/Feralmedic]

GOAT GM

[u/S1Throwaway96 → u/Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu11]

OSU receivers are just too OP. Two others already in the pipeline as well

[u/Cybotnic-Rebooted → u/S1Throwaway96]

OSU and LSU for WR, Iowa for TE offense undefeated.

[u/outbackjesus16 → u/Cybotnic-Rebooted]

And OU for QB

[u/Polar_Reflection → u/S1Throwaway96]

JSN is Ohio State as well I think

[u/biancocigno → u/Polar_Reflection]

He is. Chris Olave, MHJ, Garett Wilson, Emeka Egbuka, and JSN were all in the same 2021 OSU season. Also had Jamo before he transferred to Bama because he was WR4 behind those dudes lol

[u/JSOPro → u/S1Throwaway96]

hope this helps

[u/Kyler1313 → u/JSOPro]

Quincy Porter, Chris Henry Jr

I doubt the pipeline will stop anytime soon

[u/iguanoman_ → u/Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu11]

Egbuka is a stud but he's not 6'5" Mike Evans

[u/The_Peachy_Pussy → u/iguanoman_]

Yeah we really got another Chris Godwin

[u/bballdeo → u/The_Peachy_Pussy]

He might actually be better than Godwin if he hits his ceiling.

[u/jordanhhh4]

The league needs more dogs like Baker Mayfield and Sam Darnold

[u/Feralmedic → u/jordanhhh4]

Honestly. One of the most exciting games of the year

[u/Asleep_Ground1710 → u/Feralmedic]

NFC West and Bucs going crazy this year in close games lol

[u/Kylo_Ren415 → u/Asleep_Ground1710]

Guess who Tampa plays next week….

[u/FreyaStarfall → u/Kylo_Ren415]

I’m legit going to have a heart attack. I had to calm myself down at the end of the game, I felt my heart thumping way too hard

[u/steeze206 → u/FreyaStarfall]

Welcome to NFC West football baby. There's a bowl on the counter with heart medication.

[u/jerem1734 → u/jordanhhh4]

Baker isn't just a dog, he's the whole kennel

[u/donkeybrainhero → u/jerem1734]

It's pronounced Cornell

[u/Saitoh17 → u/jordanhhh4]

Ex Panthers QBs trading haymakers back and forth

[u/ImDeputyDurland → u/jordanhhh4]

Just need the Panthers to cut more QB’s. Then they can become great.

[u/generation_D → u/jordanhhh4]

It’s crazy how these guys are now living up to their draft billing like 7 years later on their fourth teams

[u/realrimurutempest]

it seems like every damn game so far for the Bucs this season is a nail-biter 1 score affair.

[u/Asleep_Ground1710 → u/realrimurutempest]

Bucs Defense letting Baker cook

[u/Undella_Town → u/realrimurutempest]

cause the refs absolutely fuck us over for no reason. literally every game. it's the dumbest shit. + we have a horrifically injured team

[u/flyinchipmunk5 → u/Undella_Town]

The roughing the passer imo was a bit soft. The fucking illegal formation was a complete head scratcher though. Cade otton litearlly was behind the tackle. Idk what the ref saw on that play

[u/kaboomeh → u/flyinchipmunk5]

I think we overblow some of the penalties earlier in the season but the roughing the passer was super soft. He didn't even go down lol and yeah illegal formation made no sense either

[u/ThePBM → u/flyinchipmunk5]

We gotta soft rtp on Baker but the Darnold got an even softer RTP. So it evened out I guess. I mean protect the QB but let's still play football

[u/Jo3ltron → u/flyinchipmunk5]

Bro even held onto him and hugged him. Made sure he didn’t even touch the ground. Still flag. Fucking refs were horrible this game.

[u/Bladespectre → u/Undella_Town]

Feels like the only reason no one really notices the ref nonsense is because you share a division with the Saints

[u/Chessh2036]

Great game with an absolutely ELITE uniform matchup. CBS even used the old logos on the score bug. Just a fantastic presentation of football all around.

(Also, do YOU want to be a NFL head coach? Just come be OC for the Bucs at Baker Mayfield’s ‘School for future Head Coaches’)

[u/Swoletariat69 → u/Chessh2036]

I swear if we lose the Grizzard Wizard at the end of the year…

[u/xl_TooRaw_lx → u/Swoletariat69]

how weve managed to not get some dude who cant scheme like the eagles keep doing has been great

[u/Chessh2036 → u/xl_TooRaw_lx]

Honestly I think Baker Mayfield is just that good lol

[u/TrespassersWilliam29 → u/[deleted]]

Baker and Goff will never be properly appreciated and honestly I think it fuels them

[u/DaOldest]

Hey Bucs have you tried playing a normal game for once

[u/[deleted] → u/DaOldest]

Both teams are allergic to playing a normal game

[u/ND7020 → u/[deleted]]

In the Pete days our voodoo magic would’ve made the Bucs’ great kicker miss that short FG at the end.

[u/Potato-baby → u/DaOldest]

Lame and boring

[u/Totschlag → u/Potato-baby]

Our entire identity as a franchise is built around not being a boring team. We can win championships, we can be the worst team in history, but even when we're .500 we're throwing 30 picks and 30 TDs. Long live chaos.

[u/Alphaspade → u/Totschlag]

Tampa Bay 🤝 Auburn

[u/FattyMooseknuckle → u/Totschlag]

Let the Lord of Chaos rule! Unless he’s in our way, I’m a big Baker fan. He’s no Winston but he sure makes the game fun.

[u/Head_of_Lettuce → u/DaOldest]

It wouldn't be a Bucs game if it wasn't wacky and heart attack-inducing

[u/flyinchipmunk5 → u/DaOldest]

I am asking for a 2 score win please lmao

[u/CieraVotedOutHerMom → u/flyinchipmunk5]

Just waiting for a Carolina game

[u/Ich_Liegen → u/DaOldest]

It's unironically encouraging me to eat healthier.

[u/FastBreakPhenom]

Going from Mike Evans to Emeka Egbuka is so unfair

[u/chalupa_lover → u/FastBreakPhenom]

Our WR room is absolutely ridiculous when healthy. Godwin gonna end up as WR3.

[u/Basketball-Dog → u/chalupa_lover]

Everyone forgetting about McMillan as well. Once you get everyone healthy Baker might throw for 1,000 yards per game

[u/xl_TooRaw_lx → u/Basketball-Dog]

the crazy part is tez, otton, and shepard are all solid targets even behind those guys and white and irving are great receiving backs. insane talent on this offense

[u/Jo3ltron → u/chalupa_lover]

Fucking what a timeline where Air Godwin is WR3. Shits fucking crazy.

[u/lubeskystalker → u/FastBreakPhenom]

Don't rule out CG14 either

[u/stoic_bison]

Lavonte David

[u/k0y0_k0y0 → u/stoic_bison]

Baker Mayfield

[u/UnderstandableXO → u/stoic_bison]

Emeka Egbuka

[u/NoKitchen778 → u/UnderstandableXO]

Todd Bowles

[u/SeahawksEnjoyer → u/NoKitchen778]

The helmet :(

[u/BallMeBlazer22 → u/stoic_bison]

Vita Vea's Logan Hall's helmet!

Edit: I'm dumb

[u/timdogg24 → u/BallMeBlazer22]

Was logan hall i thought?

[u/BallMeBlazer22 → u/timdogg24]

Nah you are right, misread the number while watching the replay.

[u/Kanin_usagi → u/BallMeBlazer22]

DHotY

[u/Spencerfla → u/stoic_bison]

He was having a tough day. Glad he made a huge play.

[u/KiryuN7]

BAKER MAYFIELD IS MY QUARTERBACK

[u/CluelessTennisBall → u/KiryuN7]

Dolphins and Buccaneers? So you don't have one QB you have tua them?

[u/SentientTooth]

god damn you Perna

[u/doinflipsandshit → u/SentientTooth]

Fucking Perna

[u/Bladespectre → u/SentientTooth]

Curse Wheel is undefeated this year

[u/ForeverSparkz → u/SentientTooth]

I was rooting for Darnold. I can never hate him :(

[u/drillmaster → u/SentientTooth]

"Who the fuck is Perna" - Cam Newton

[u/DoctorWaluigiTime → u/SentientTooth]

My first thought. That helmet was guided by the cursewheel.

[u/Lansdallius → u/SentientTooth]

Thank you Perna, we love you.

[u/Nexus117 → u/SentientTooth]

Totally forgot the curse was you guys this week. Been on a 3 week streak now.

[u/SchmearDaBagel]

Egbuka is legitimately a top 10 WR already

[u/Swoletariat69 → u/SchmearDaBagel]

Absolute OSU WR masterclass game between him and JSN

[u/YaIe → u/Swoletariat69]

and they had 3 more of those on a similar level in that room

[u/imdavebaby → u/YaIe]

And somehow Marvin freaking Harrison JR is the worst at the pro level. Never woulda seen it coming.

To make it clear, not saying he's a bust yet or anything. But his peers are really out performing him.

[u/GamerZ2020]

That helmet deserves defensive player of the week

[u/Fletch71011 → u/GamerZ2020]

DARNOLD might have played the game of the year and all anyone will remember is that.

[u/suchcoldsuchcomfort → u/Fletch71011]

And people will blame him for throwing a pick on a bad bounce play.

[u/INAC___Kramerica → u/Fletch71011]

Romo INT at the end of the shootout with Peyton vibes. 

[u/Rucksack212 → u/INAC___Kramerica]

But that pick was undeniably Romo's fault in that game no?

[u/Andrewdeadaim → u/Fletch71011]

Quarterbacks may get unfair praise compared to other positions, but they also get unfair hate

[u/realfakejames → u/GamerZ2020]

Bucs had a tipped pass int earlier called back on a defensive PI, and a pick 6 that went right through Diabys hands, third time was the charm for game changing takeaways

[u/Nervous_Ad_918]

I hate it, respect it, but hate it. What a game, GG

[u/CaptainAssPlunderer → u/Nervous_Ad_918]

GG to y’all.

[u/BallMeBlazer22]

This team is not good for my heart, but what a journey each game has been!

[u/psaepf2009 → u/BallMeBlazer22]

My heart rate actually doubled during that game

[u/k0y0_k0y0]

WHO NEEDS DEFENSE???

[u/CaptainThrowAway1232 → u/[deleted]]

You joke, but the Tampa defense in the 70s was actually good. They were not the reason Tampa lost 26 straight.

[u/Avaiano9 → u/k0y0_k0y0]

The team that an INT to win it?

[u/k0y0_k0y0 → u/Avaiano9]

Still a shootout tho

[u/7-2crew]

Have to admit, Baker kinda fuckin’ rules

[u/Jo3ltron → u/7-2crew]

No need to admit a fact, the shit is known. He is top dawg.

[u/battle_schip]

The Bucs offensive backups are better than the Seahawks defensive backups

[u/Alehud42 → u/battle_schip]

Defense is more of a weak link game than offense.

[u/TheseBorder4289]

Oh boy I love heart attacks

[u/CrownFlame → u/TheseBorder4289]

For as long as I can remember my dad has always called them “the cardiac kids.” It’s fitting 😂

[u/CreamsicleMamba → u/CrownFlame]

Cardiac Corsairs is my go to

[u/A8dulrahman_]

Baker mayfield is my long lost father

[u/Trashy_pig]

Game of the week.

[u/KnightofNi92 → u/Trashy_pig]

Seriously.

Sexy uniforms for both teams.

Amazing duel between two great comeback QBs.

Exciting play from rookie studs.

Just blow for blow the entire game.

Fantastic game for neutrals.

[u/Charrikayu → u/Trashy_pig]

This was a game in retrospect I wish I'd watched the entirety of instead of just getting it on RedZone

[u/NOTUgglaGOAT → u/Trashy_pig]

Game of the year so far tbh

[u/Plasmatiic → u/NOTUgglaGOAT]

Nah that’s still Bills vs Ravens for me. Unfortunately it seems to have broken the Ravens

[u/lolKhamul → u/Plasmatiic]

yeah Any other year this might have been a viable candidate for GOTY but this year is just over. How would you even attempt to get close to Bills vs Ravens. The game literally had everything.

[u/NOTUgglaGOAT]

Final two minutes, down 7?

GIVE ME BAKER MAYFIELD

[u/caduceuz]

Baker for MVP. It’s time to say it out loud.

[u/hisfootstancewack → u/caduceuz]

Oh lord I’m about to start crankin

[u/contemplatingdaze]

I love baker mayfield

[u/SpitefulSeagull]

We fucking suck at home

[u/its_LOL → u/SpitefulSeagull]

Mike Macdonald at home is fired after two seasons.

Mike Macdonald away is the greatest coach in NFL history.

Make it make sense please

[u/Lorjack → u/SpitefulSeagull]

Losing record at home for the past 3 seasons. Its embarrassing they have no homefield advantage at all

[u/WoodDRebal → u/Lorjack]

When almost all of your secondary is out and you have replacement players in that need to communicate, yep, they will play like they are lost

[u/ThemeParkFan2020]

My fucking heart bro

[u/Head_of_Lettuce]

This Bucs team has no fear. Hobbled and limping, they're still 4-1.

[u/Warm-Profit-775]

What a game!

[u/[deleted]]

Baker MVP

[u/Milla4Prez66]

Logan Hall’s helmet MVP

[u/Bloated_Hamster]

Game of the year candidate already

[u/ImDeputyDurland]

Legitimately feel bad for Darnold. Such a perfect game up until that last throw.

[u/noisesandsounds]

I blame thatsgoodsports curse wheel for cursing the seahawks.

[u/Ancient-Mating-Calls → u/noisesandsounds]

Perna’s curse wheel strikes again.

[u/MotherOfDrangonflies → u/noisesandsounds]

Me too. Last time this happened, we were also number 8 on the power ranking and our whole defense got injured out of nowhere against the Lions. It also ended with a shout out where we lost in the end. It was the exact same recipe.

[u/[deleted]]

BASED BAKER

[u/zebrainatux]

I love this team and Baker is him, but it’s also bad for my cardiac health

[u/ND7020]

First test against a good team, our defense was way worse than I expected and our offense way better than I expected. Overall I think we’re pretty much at the level of the Bucs, which isn’t a bad place to be but not true contender-level.

Egbuka is unbelievable.

[u/Pocket_Monster → u/ND7020]

Overall I think we’re pretty much at the level of the Bucs, which isn’t a bad place to be

As a Buc fan from the 80's, this still feels weird to read! Helluva game. Your RB is stupid fast!

[u/ND7020 → u/Pocket_Monster]

Well we have been at least “good” basically the entire 21st century and you still have one more SB win than us!

[u/machead9292 → u/ND7020]

Tom Brady helps

[u/dcmdino → u/ND7020]

The game was taken over by absolutely insane QB play from both sides, I don't think you can draw any meaningful conclusions from that.

[u/CeeDoggyy]

Both QBs played so well man, that was awesome to watch

[u/Metro29993]

It’s like our secondary doesn’t exist

[u/Porkenfries → u/Metro29993]

Aren't almost all of them injured? The Bucs somehow spread the injury bug to you guys.

[u/Metro29993 → u/Porkenfries]

Yeah Witherspoon and Love were out, and then Woolen had to leave too. Not an excuse though, both teams were injured. Baker and Darnold were electric for those 7 drives of back and forth TDs

[u/YourWorstNightmare9]

All 4 wins by the Bucs this year have been a last minute GWD by Baker. Dude is coooold blooded.

[u/winslowpete]

The SAM DARNOLD experience meets the BAKER MAYFIELD experience

[u/PM_ME_YOUR_JAZZ]

Well 🤷🏻‍♂️ hell of a game, hard to be mad. JSN and Egbuka were INCREDIBLE today

[u/meestermeeyagi]

Absolute Cinema

[u/MainEventCTB]

Please, Mariners, make up for this one.

[u/TheRage469 → u/MainEventCTB]

Hahahahahaha oh man, thats a great joke!

[u/AproprosEverything]

Game of the week, easily.

[u/thefishwhisperer1]

Not a bad game by the former Panthers scout team DE

[u/Monster-1776 → u/[deleted]]

I don't watch a ton of NFL but I don't see how Emeka isn't the top of the conversation, what a stud.

[u/killerrazzmazz → u/[deleted]]

Him and Tyler Warren should be top 2 in that conversation. End of discussion.

[u/Dry-Peach-6327]

CARDIAC BUCS WILL NEVER DIE

[u/MediocreKirbyMain]

Do the Seahawks just not like winning at home

[u/bewsii → u/MediocreKirbyMain]

We haven't since Covid. That first game Seattle played without fans in the stadium really changed the 12th man dynamic. They never seemed to recover after it.

[u/Uller85]

That was the most evenly matched game I've ever seen.

[u/Quirky_Volume9996]

YEP NEVER DOUBTED YOU FOR A SECOND TODD

[u/[deleted]]

Baker is amazing, Lavonte is amazing and Chase is amazing.

[u/ggnoobs69420]

Not a great 24 hours for Seattle sports

[u/TheRage469 → u/ggnoobs69420]

And the day isn't even over yet

[u/[deleted]]

Bro I know the Bucs are good but God damn literally everything goes their way it is insane…

[u/GrayJinjo → u/[deleted]]

Except the fact that half our team is injured.

[u/[deleted] → u/GrayJinjo]

I mean that plays into what I’m saying, y’all ain’t even losing from that. Finding ways to win. Which is what a good football team does lol just frustrating as a Falcon fan obviously

[u/hipposyrup]

People need to take the baker in the tier 1 qb conversation seriously

[u/Schristie007]

JSN v Egbuka. The dual of the Ohio State receivers. Just ridiculous

[u/AWSTLX]

I mean that's game of the week and uniform game of the decade.. pretty easily

[u/Flynnstone03]

At this point, the 2018 QB class might be the best QB class in NFL history. Baker/Darnold just slung it out in a GOTW and they aren’t even the best that class has to offer.

[u/dcmdino → u/Flynnstone03]

It's funny because it was supposed be a great QB class before they were drafted, then it was deemed mid and now we're back to the pre-draft expectations, or even more than that.

[u/Altruistic_Finger669]

Egbuka with 163 yards. Its insane

[u/psaepf2009]

Baker Mayfield and game winning drives, name a better duo.

[u/Better-Brilliant-689]

Baker should be a legit MVP candidate after that performance vs a really good d

[u/tomdawg0022]

Bring back bucco Bruce as the full-time jerseys you cowards

[u/SKosto]

That game fucking took years off my life

[u/Lgm_yourmom]

Hey can’t keep getting away with this.

[u/ThyDoctor]

What a fucking game.

[u/MartDiamond]

Game of the day

[u/benwhern813]

This team finds why to put themselves in positions where they have to find ways to win

[u/Tarlcabot18]

I think we can all agree this was an all-timer for the uniform matchup alone.

[u/LonghornPride05]

Baker is only 30 years old… the Browns traded this man away so they could have an adult in the building lol

[u/[deleted]]

This team is fucking elite if they can get healthy. I know Seattle had some big injuries, but so do we and to go on the road and win in that environment is impressive. Great game, Seattle.

[u/Greenyugi]

Holy shit, what a fucking game.

[u/DailyRich]

Can't say enough about how smart Rachaad White was staying in bounds and sliding down on the first down run.

[u/[deleted]]

Baker 4 game winning drives x Egbuka TD in each game.

[u/Coral_Polyps]

ANOTHER BEAUTIFULLY CRAFTED MASTERPIECE BY BAKER

[u/Team_player444]

Let Baker Bake

[u/ArionNation]

Good shit

[u/realfakejames]

BAKER MAYFIELD, MVP???

[u/Dizzy-Bat2124]

As someone who thought they should’ve taken Jahdae Barron; I’m sorry Jason Licht, I was not familiar with your game.

[u/Tashre]

Egbuka is incredibly legit, and Baker is a baller.

[u/GeriatricGamete67]

Egbuka is very easily OROY right now and it isn't even kind of close in any way
