WEBVTT - Injury Updates, Vita Vea's Impact | Bucs Insider

0:00:04.680 --> 0:00:07.520
<v Speaker 1>Hey there, good morning, Bucks fans. It's time for Buccaneers.

0:00:07.520 --> 0:00:09.920
<v Speaker 1>Inside of Live, presented by Miller Lyte Casey Phillips here

0:00:09.960 --> 0:00:11.720
<v Speaker 1>was senior writer and editor Scott Smith, and it is

0:00:11.720 --> 0:00:15.600
<v Speaker 1>our final one of these before the super Bowl. I

0:00:15.640 --> 0:00:18.720
<v Speaker 1>also never get tired of saying the super Bowl, that's

0:00:18.720 --> 0:00:22.240
<v Speaker 1>the thing that's happening in just two days. So this

0:00:22.320 --> 0:00:24.280
<v Speaker 1>is your last chance to get your questions in for us.

0:00:24.440 --> 0:00:26.240
<v Speaker 1>If you're not already watching a Facebook, head on over

0:00:26.239 --> 0:00:28.160
<v Speaker 1>there and you can put your questions underneath the live

0:00:28.400 --> 0:00:32.400
<v Speaker 1>video as we give people a chance to start doing that. Um,

0:00:32.440 --> 0:00:34.440
<v Speaker 1>we figured, of course injuries and all of that that's

0:00:34.440 --> 0:00:37.440
<v Speaker 1>always where we start. That's always the big storyline for everybody.

0:00:37.479 --> 0:00:40.800
<v Speaker 1>And we did get an injury report again yesterday. Um

0:00:40.960 --> 0:00:43.720
<v Speaker 1>there was some good news, some bad news, some things

0:00:43.760 --> 0:00:45.360
<v Speaker 1>about it, so we figured we'd just go ahead and

0:00:45.400 --> 0:00:48.360
<v Speaker 1>start there with what we know at this point. Well,

0:00:48.400 --> 0:00:51.000
<v Speaker 1>the one player that made an improvement on the report

0:00:51.200 --> 0:00:55.640
<v Speaker 1>was Antonio Brown, who went to full participation despite his

0:00:55.680 --> 0:00:57.959
<v Speaker 1>knee injury that he's been dealing with for a few

0:00:58.000 --> 0:01:00.600
<v Speaker 1>weeks now. So that's obviously very a good sign. I

0:01:00.680 --> 0:01:03.200
<v Speaker 1>think at this point you can feel pretty optimistic that

0:01:03.240 --> 0:01:05.720
<v Speaker 1>he will be available for the Super Bowl. Um. The

0:01:05.800 --> 0:01:10.600
<v Speaker 1>three other guys that were limited, UM, Jordan Whitehead, Antoine Wentfield,

0:01:10.720 --> 0:01:13.800
<v Speaker 1>and Lavonte David all remained limited. Coach said they ran

0:01:13.800 --> 0:01:16.760
<v Speaker 1>around and looked good. So again, I'm feeling fairly optimistic

0:01:16.800 --> 0:01:19.440
<v Speaker 1>about all of it. Um. The bad news, or at

0:01:19.480 --> 0:01:22.520
<v Speaker 1>least the new thing on the injury report was Cam

0:01:22.600 --> 0:01:26.520
<v Speaker 1>Brait was added the title with a back injury. Uh,

0:01:26.520 --> 0:01:29.360
<v Speaker 1>it's it's it'll be interesting today. We'll probably be the

0:01:29.400 --> 0:01:31.440
<v Speaker 1>key day to see what his status is in practice,

0:01:31.480 --> 0:01:34.640
<v Speaker 1>because sometimes when you see a player who was not

0:01:34.720 --> 0:01:37.679
<v Speaker 1>on the injury report to begin the week added to

0:01:37.680 --> 0:01:40.759
<v Speaker 1>the report as limited on the next day, it means

0:01:40.760 --> 0:01:43.440
<v Speaker 1>he got hurt in practice, and the reason he's limited

0:01:43.520 --> 0:01:45.800
<v Speaker 1>is because he was fine and he got hurt and

0:01:45.880 --> 0:01:48.800
<v Speaker 1>he didn't finish practice, therefore he was limited. That is

0:01:48.840 --> 0:01:50.800
<v Speaker 1>the case sometimes when you see this. So we'll have

0:01:50.840 --> 0:01:53.640
<v Speaker 1>to see what it looks like today. UM. You know,

0:01:53.680 --> 0:01:56.040
<v Speaker 1>we obviously have our fingers crossed, not only because the

0:01:56.080 --> 0:01:59.400
<v Speaker 1>team needs cam Brad, who's had a fantastic playoff run

0:01:59.520 --> 0:02:01.480
<v Speaker 1>so far, but just because we sure don't want him

0:02:01.480 --> 0:02:03.280
<v Speaker 1>to miss this Super Bowl. That you know, He's one

0:02:03.320 --> 0:02:05.760
<v Speaker 1>of these guys like Lavante and Mike Evans that have

0:02:05.840 --> 0:02:07.240
<v Speaker 1>been around for here for a long time and have

0:02:07.360 --> 0:02:10.480
<v Speaker 1>waited a long time for this day. Yeah. And we

0:02:10.480 --> 0:02:13.919
<v Speaker 1>will be getting the final injury report today, correct, Yeah,

0:02:14.080 --> 0:02:16.560
<v Speaker 1>that's correct. That will actually have the game designations, and

0:02:16.680 --> 0:02:19.320
<v Speaker 1>unlike last week, it will actually be about this game.

0:02:19.440 --> 0:02:21.120
<v Speaker 1>It will mean something. It's compared to the one last

0:02:21.160 --> 0:02:23.480
<v Speaker 1>week that didn't mean a whole lot. So, uh, stay

0:02:23.480 --> 0:02:25.480
<v Speaker 1>tuned everybody for the injury report today that will have

0:02:25.520 --> 0:02:29.320
<v Speaker 1>the whole questionable out you know, all that kindably about

0:02:29.360 --> 0:02:32.600
<v Speaker 1>mid afternoon two or three something like that. Yes, Um.

0:02:32.639 --> 0:02:34.480
<v Speaker 1>And also I know we had been asked a question

0:02:34.520 --> 0:02:36.400
<v Speaker 1>earlier this week that we didn't know the answer to

0:02:36.600 --> 0:02:38.880
<v Speaker 1>at the time, so, UM, I know you did a

0:02:38.919 --> 0:02:40.280
<v Speaker 1>little bit of research and figured it out. We've had

0:02:40.280 --> 0:02:43.079
<v Speaker 1>a few different people ask us where injured players will

0:02:43.080 --> 0:02:45.840
<v Speaker 1>watch the game from and meeting guys especially like O. J. Howard,

0:02:45.840 --> 0:02:48.639
<v Speaker 1>Alex Kappa, guys that you know are have been out

0:02:48.680 --> 0:02:50.640
<v Speaker 1>and we're out in that kind of thing. Um, what

0:02:50.720 --> 0:02:53.239
<v Speaker 1>did you find out about that? Yeah, I've been over

0:02:53.280 --> 0:02:55.960
<v Speaker 1>to the stadium a few times, Um, since the season ended.

0:02:56.320 --> 0:02:58.840
<v Speaker 1>While they were preparing the stadium for the Super Bowl,

0:02:58.919 --> 0:03:00.920
<v Speaker 1>and they were building some thing in the south end

0:03:01.000 --> 0:03:04.760
<v Speaker 1>zone opposite worthy Pirate ship is And at first I

0:03:04.760 --> 0:03:07.000
<v Speaker 1>thought it was extra seats, but I guess I didn't

0:03:07.040 --> 0:03:09.840
<v Speaker 1>really need extra seats this year. So it actually is

0:03:10.160 --> 0:03:15.360
<v Speaker 1>two levels worth of improvised basically luxury suites or boxes

0:03:15.440 --> 0:03:17.560
<v Speaker 1>booths I guess you'd call them. And one of those

0:03:17.639 --> 0:03:19.320
<v Speaker 1>is going to be for the guys on injury Reserve,

0:03:19.400 --> 0:03:21.959
<v Speaker 1>so they're gonna be there in that booth. So I

0:03:22.040 --> 0:03:23.560
<v Speaker 1>think that's a pretty good deal that they're gonna be

0:03:23.600 --> 0:03:25.080
<v Speaker 1>I was a little concerned that they might not be

0:03:25.120 --> 0:03:28.280
<v Speaker 1>allowed to come to the stadium, So that's a good deal. Yeah,

0:03:28.320 --> 0:03:31.519
<v Speaker 1>And uh, we had someone bring up the weather forecast.

0:03:31.560 --> 0:03:33.840
<v Speaker 1>It had been saying rain was a chance. Now I

0:03:33.840 --> 0:03:36.320
<v Speaker 1>feel like it looks like it's saying that's more earlier

0:03:36.320 --> 0:03:38.000
<v Speaker 1>in the day and won't be an issue. But if

0:03:38.520 --> 0:03:40.800
<v Speaker 1>rain became an issue, how do you feel like that

0:03:40.840 --> 0:03:44.200
<v Speaker 1>would impact each team and who might either benefit from

0:03:44.240 --> 0:03:46.200
<v Speaker 1>it or be harmed more by that. Who do you

0:03:46.200 --> 0:03:48.360
<v Speaker 1>think that would favor. I'm not sure that would really

0:03:48.360 --> 0:03:53.120
<v Speaker 1>favor anybody. Both these teams are are high powered passing teams. Uh,

0:03:53.160 --> 0:03:55.280
<v Speaker 1>you know, there are the Chiefs and the Bucks are

0:03:55.320 --> 0:03:58.800
<v Speaker 1>one two in passing yards this season. Um. They both

0:03:58.800 --> 0:04:01.200
<v Speaker 1>have good kickers who have who are used to a

0:04:01.200 --> 0:04:06.360
<v Speaker 1>lot of different conditions. Um, so it's it would be

0:04:06.360 --> 0:04:08.720
<v Speaker 1>a negative effect on both teams, I would think, But

0:04:08.760 --> 0:04:10.440
<v Speaker 1>I'm not sure it really favors one or the other.

0:04:11.600 --> 0:04:13.840
<v Speaker 1>You know, normally you might think it's the Buccaneers because

0:04:14.000 --> 0:04:18.000
<v Speaker 1>in a normal season, we play through a couple monsoons

0:04:18.080 --> 0:04:20.360
<v Speaker 1>during the season here in Tampa. But it didn't really

0:04:20.360 --> 0:04:22.240
<v Speaker 1>happen this time around. We've been pretty we've been pretty

0:04:22.279 --> 0:04:25.159
<v Speaker 1>fortunate in terms of avoiding bad weather. Yeah, and I

0:04:25.160 --> 0:04:27.080
<v Speaker 1>mean I guess that Do you feel like that would

0:04:27.080 --> 0:04:29.320
<v Speaker 1>be a situation where they would rely more on the

0:04:29.400 --> 0:04:32.000
<v Speaker 1>run game if that were to happen, or do you

0:04:32.000 --> 0:04:34.600
<v Speaker 1>think they would still just try to execute as well

0:04:34.640 --> 0:04:36.279
<v Speaker 1>as they can in the rain but they're not. Yeah,

0:04:36.360 --> 0:04:38.040
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I guess it depends on the severity of

0:04:38.040 --> 0:04:40.680
<v Speaker 1>the rain. If it's if it's not like an absolute

0:04:40.760 --> 0:04:43.360
<v Speaker 1>torrential downpour, I don't think you really changed the game

0:04:43.360 --> 0:04:46.040
<v Speaker 1>plan too much. If it is a game that forces

0:04:46.080 --> 0:04:48.679
<v Speaker 1>you to put the ball on the ground. Um, maybe

0:04:48.680 --> 0:04:50.640
<v Speaker 1>the Bucks have a bit of an advantage. Neither team

0:04:50.680 --> 0:04:53.760
<v Speaker 1>was really among the leaders this year in rushing yards,

0:04:53.920 --> 0:04:56.000
<v Speaker 1>but the Bucks running game has been pretty good during

0:04:56.000 --> 0:04:58.880
<v Speaker 1>the playoffs, so um, you know, maybe they'd have a

0:04:58.880 --> 0:05:00.800
<v Speaker 1>bit of an advantage. But I'm hoping we don't have

0:05:00.839 --> 0:05:02.480
<v Speaker 1>to worry about this because I'd rather not have to

0:05:03.440 --> 0:05:06.080
<v Speaker 1>deal with the rain in the Super Bowl. Yes, my

0:05:06.200 --> 0:05:09.080
<v Speaker 1>press seat will be uncovered and outside, so I also

0:05:09.120 --> 0:05:12.200
<v Speaker 1>would like to not do that as is mine. Yes,

0:05:12.320 --> 0:05:14.760
<v Speaker 1>that will that will be not as fun. Jose asked

0:05:14.760 --> 0:05:17.720
<v Speaker 1>what are some lessons learned from the game versus the

0:05:17.760 --> 0:05:19.520
<v Speaker 1>Chiefs earlier this year. What do you think would be

0:05:19.520 --> 0:05:22.360
<v Speaker 1>the one or two biggest things that they learned. Well,

0:05:23.040 --> 0:05:25.719
<v Speaker 1>you know, one of the I guess lessons is probably

0:05:25.760 --> 0:05:27.360
<v Speaker 1>something that it will be hard for you or out

0:05:27.400 --> 0:05:29.719
<v Speaker 1>of quantify. But I'm sure they have watched plenty of

0:05:29.760 --> 0:05:33.000
<v Speaker 1>tape of the first half and um trying to devise

0:05:33.080 --> 0:05:36.440
<v Speaker 1>the best ways to slow down Travis Hill, I mean

0:05:36.600 --> 0:05:40.360
<v Speaker 1>Travis Kelsey and Tyree Hill, which is a tough challenge

0:05:40.400 --> 0:05:42.320
<v Speaker 1>for any team, but you know, tie bowls and those

0:05:42.320 --> 0:05:44.120
<v Speaker 1>guys have been working at it and have a game

0:05:44.200 --> 0:05:47.320
<v Speaker 1>plan they're confident in. Um, you know, other other than that.

0:05:47.480 --> 0:05:50.760
<v Speaker 1>One of the lessons are basically, don't be bad on

0:05:50.880 --> 0:05:54.920
<v Speaker 1>third down, on offense early on, and don't throw interceptions

0:05:54.920 --> 0:05:56.480
<v Speaker 1>in the second half when you're when you're trying to

0:05:56.520 --> 0:05:58.800
<v Speaker 1>make a comeback. I mean those are fairly obvious things

0:05:58.880 --> 0:06:02.800
<v Speaker 1>that you can say but actually have to execute. Yes, Um,

0:06:02.839 --> 0:06:05.359
<v Speaker 1>this is an interesting question. Richard asked, who will you

0:06:05.480 --> 0:06:08.440
<v Speaker 1>be happy for the most when the Bucks win the

0:06:08.480 --> 0:06:14.200
<v Speaker 1>Super Bowl. I like to win, and they're both wins wins. Um, yeah,

0:06:14.240 --> 0:06:16.400
<v Speaker 1>it's probably I don't know if there's one guy, but

0:06:16.480 --> 0:06:19.640
<v Speaker 1>it's probably. It's all the guys. Lavonte David obviously comes

0:06:19.680 --> 0:06:23.039
<v Speaker 1>to mind. Um, Mike Evans, those guys have been around

0:06:23.080 --> 0:06:26.200
<v Speaker 1>for a long time. Will Golston. Probably Lavonte though, because

0:06:27.760 --> 0:06:30.800
<v Speaker 1>you know he's the guy that Mike Evans is a

0:06:30.839 --> 0:06:33.599
<v Speaker 1>phenomenal receiver that might end up in the Hall of Fame, right.

0:06:33.960 --> 0:06:36.559
<v Speaker 1>But I I feel also like he's gotten a pretty

0:06:36.560 --> 0:06:39.560
<v Speaker 1>good amount of attention and credit for how good he is,

0:06:39.600 --> 0:06:41.680
<v Speaker 1>which is good. I'm glad that he has. We all

0:06:41.720 --> 0:06:45.200
<v Speaker 1>know that Lavonte David has been perennially underrated and remains

0:06:45.240 --> 0:06:48.520
<v Speaker 1>that way. So put those two things together. The fact

0:06:48.560 --> 0:06:50.159
<v Speaker 1>that you want these guys have been around for a

0:06:50.160 --> 0:06:51.839
<v Speaker 1>long time and been through the ups and downs and

0:06:51.920 --> 0:06:56.000
<v Speaker 1>some hard seasons to have that. But then add in

0:06:56.040 --> 0:06:58.720
<v Speaker 1>the fact that Lavonte David has been underappreciated and maybe

0:06:58.760 --> 0:07:01.200
<v Speaker 1>this would help with that, I'd probably go with the linte.

0:07:01.200 --> 0:07:03.240
<v Speaker 1>I'm guessing you feel the same way. Yeah, that's literally

0:07:03.240 --> 0:07:04.640
<v Speaker 1>almost word for word. But I was going to say

0:07:04.680 --> 0:07:06.680
<v Speaker 1>I was gonna Vonte and Mike, and I would say,

0:07:06.680 --> 0:07:09.600
<v Speaker 1>but Mike has definitely gotten more attention for other things. Now,

0:07:09.640 --> 0:07:11.760
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure that everyone on that team will be equally

0:07:11.760 --> 0:07:14.280
<v Speaker 1>as excited. So this is not about who we think

0:07:14.320 --> 0:07:16.240
<v Speaker 1>will value with the most. It's more just who we

0:07:16.240 --> 0:07:18.000
<v Speaker 1>would be most excited for. And I agree that I

0:07:18.080 --> 0:07:20.520
<v Speaker 1>want Lavonte to get more of that attention that he deserves.

0:07:20.840 --> 0:07:23.040
<v Speaker 1>I kind of would like to be able to see, Um,

0:07:23.440 --> 0:07:25.920
<v Speaker 1>Tom Brady to do this though. That'd be pretty cool. Yeah,

0:07:25.960 --> 0:07:29.440
<v Speaker 1>that's insane, that's just that's ridiculous thing to think about.

0:07:29.800 --> 0:07:31.360
<v Speaker 1>Curtis asked, do you think it will be better to

0:07:31.480 --> 0:07:34.280
<v Speaker 1>jam wide receivers or play zone. I think it'd be

0:07:34.280 --> 0:07:37.320
<v Speaker 1>better to mix it up. Um, And actually, this is

0:07:37.320 --> 0:07:39.320
<v Speaker 1>gonna come as a surprise to probably most of the

0:07:39.320 --> 0:07:41.560
<v Speaker 1>people out there. But I recently was reading some numbers,

0:07:41.880 --> 0:07:47.080
<v Speaker 1>and the Buccaneers coverage numbers. What they allowed was this

0:07:47.240 --> 0:07:49.720
<v Speaker 1>entire season as a whole was actually better in zone

0:07:50.360 --> 0:07:52.640
<v Speaker 1>than it was in man. And that's not what a

0:07:52.680 --> 0:07:54.840
<v Speaker 1>lot of people are gonna want to hear, because I

0:07:54.880 --> 0:07:57.240
<v Speaker 1>feel like everybody hates zone coverage because they hate to

0:07:57.280 --> 0:07:58.760
<v Speaker 1>see a guy just run to a spot and make

0:07:58.800 --> 0:08:01.000
<v Speaker 1>an easy catch, and like, why don't we just man

0:08:01.040 --> 0:08:03.600
<v Speaker 1>these guys up? But you have to mix it up, right,

0:08:03.600 --> 0:08:06.200
<v Speaker 1>You can't always play the same thing, And um, I

0:08:06.200 --> 0:08:10.080
<v Speaker 1>think we're gonna mix it up. Uh. I would suspect

0:08:10.480 --> 0:08:12.400
<v Speaker 1>there's there'll be a pretty good dose of man. I

0:08:12.440 --> 0:08:15.120
<v Speaker 1>think that they're going to probably do a lot of

0:08:15.640 --> 0:08:18.480
<v Speaker 1>leaving the safeties over the top and and then letting

0:08:18.480 --> 0:08:23.120
<v Speaker 1>these guys underneath play man just because it's they're gonna say,

0:08:23.120 --> 0:08:25.160
<v Speaker 1>all right, we're gonna were you got these great guys,

0:08:25.200 --> 0:08:27.080
<v Speaker 1>we got these great defenders. We're gonna go man to

0:08:27.160 --> 0:08:30.000
<v Speaker 1>man and see who wins. I would think that's part

0:08:30.000 --> 0:08:32.520
<v Speaker 1>of the philosophy. And you sort of related to that.

0:08:32.679 --> 0:08:35.360
<v Speaker 1>James asked, do you think we will blitz mahomes more

0:08:35.400 --> 0:08:40.520
<v Speaker 1>than last game? Well, probably because we only blitz Mahomes

0:08:41.280 --> 0:08:43.439
<v Speaker 1>of our snaps and if you know Todd Bowls, that

0:08:43.600 --> 0:08:48.080
<v Speaker 1>is very uncharacteristic. Um. He that was the lowest blitz

0:08:48.080 --> 0:08:50.680
<v Speaker 1>percentage we did against any team all season. But there's

0:08:50.679 --> 0:08:52.199
<v Speaker 1>a reason for that, and I think I may have

0:08:52.280 --> 0:08:55.760
<v Speaker 1>mentioned it a couple of times in these past few weeks. Um.

0:08:55.880 --> 0:08:59.440
<v Speaker 1>Patrick Mahomes's numbers against the Blitz are sick. I mean,

0:08:59.559 --> 0:09:02.160
<v Speaker 1>your base gale turning him into the best quarterback of

0:09:02.200 --> 0:09:05.280
<v Speaker 1>all time if you blitz him, because his his pass

0:09:05.400 --> 0:09:07.439
<v Speaker 1>rating career against the blitz is something like a hundred

0:09:07.520 --> 0:09:10.760
<v Speaker 1>thirty five. It's just insane. Now, this is what you

0:09:10.800 --> 0:09:13.840
<v Speaker 1>have to understand. There's a difference between Patrick Mahomes against

0:09:13.840 --> 0:09:18.640
<v Speaker 1>the blitz and Patrick Mahomes against pressure. Against pressure, his

0:09:18.720 --> 0:09:21.079
<v Speaker 1>numbers go down because he's an actual mortal human being,

0:09:21.120 --> 0:09:24.000
<v Speaker 1>which is hard to believe. Um. So you if you

0:09:24.000 --> 0:09:26.280
<v Speaker 1>can get pressure on him, that's a very good thing,

0:09:26.360 --> 0:09:29.400
<v Speaker 1>just as it is against virtually every quarterback. The problem

0:09:29.440 --> 0:09:33.000
<v Speaker 1>is not every blitz produces pressure, and not every pressure

0:09:33.120 --> 0:09:36.160
<v Speaker 1>comes from blitz. So the best thing for the Buccaneers

0:09:36.240 --> 0:09:38.439
<v Speaker 1>is if they would be able to consistently get pressure

0:09:38.559 --> 0:09:40.560
<v Speaker 1>with the four man rush, which is what happened in

0:09:40.559 --> 0:09:42.720
<v Speaker 1>Green Bay, and we saw how good those results were.

0:09:42.920 --> 0:09:44.560
<v Speaker 1>You can't count on that, but I think that's what

0:09:44.600 --> 0:09:46.520
<v Speaker 1>they'll try first, and if they have to go to

0:09:46.559 --> 0:09:48.120
<v Speaker 1>a blitz them, I'll go to a blitz. But it's

0:09:48.120 --> 0:09:50.959
<v Speaker 1>playing with fire to do that against Patrick Mahomes. Yes,

0:09:51.040 --> 0:09:54.079
<v Speaker 1>for sure. UM Francisco asked if we get down early

0:09:54.120 --> 0:09:56.079
<v Speaker 1>like we did last time, do you think we can

0:09:56.160 --> 0:09:59.120
<v Speaker 1>rally back? Well, we have shown the ability to do

0:09:59.240 --> 0:10:01.959
<v Speaker 1>so m a few times this year. The the Los

0:10:02.000 --> 0:10:05.720
<v Speaker 1>Angeles Chargers game certainly comes to mind, the Atlanta game

0:10:05.960 --> 0:10:09.600
<v Speaker 1>in particular in Atlanta. UM. The problem with doing that

0:10:09.600 --> 0:10:12.880
<v Speaker 1>against Kansas City is you in order to make a

0:10:12.960 --> 0:10:16.840
<v Speaker 1>comeback from what ten seventeen points down, you have to

0:10:16.920 --> 0:10:20.160
<v Speaker 1>also stop them, and that's putting yourself behind the eight ball.

0:10:20.320 --> 0:10:22.000
<v Speaker 1>If you're trying to come back, which the Bucks tried

0:10:22.040 --> 0:10:23.960
<v Speaker 1>to do against the Chiefs last time. I think they're

0:10:23.960 --> 0:10:27.520
<v Speaker 1>down seventeen nothing, maybe twenty three at one point, and

0:10:27.559 --> 0:10:29.720
<v Speaker 1>they came back to within three points. But you just

0:10:29.920 --> 0:10:32.080
<v Speaker 1>it's hard to keep them from continuing to add on

0:10:32.080 --> 0:10:34.360
<v Speaker 1>to their score. So let's just not do that. You know,

0:10:34.400 --> 0:10:38.120
<v Speaker 1>the Buccaneers since that bye week, and other than the

0:10:38.120 --> 0:10:40.840
<v Speaker 1>Atlanta game, I've done a much better job of starting

0:10:40.840 --> 0:10:43.079
<v Speaker 1>off fast, you know, like last week in Green May

0:10:43.240 --> 0:10:45.520
<v Speaker 1>went right down the field, scored on the opening drive,

0:10:45.559 --> 0:10:50.000
<v Speaker 1>and headed I think lead at halftime. So, um, it's possible, obviously,

0:10:50.520 --> 0:10:53.520
<v Speaker 1>but it's just really putting yourself in a hard spot

0:10:53.559 --> 0:10:56.720
<v Speaker 1>if you're down double digits to this team. It is

0:10:56.760 --> 0:10:59.839
<v Speaker 1>so interesting that Tom Brady has not scored touchdowns into

0:10:59.840 --> 0:11:03.720
<v Speaker 1>for quarter of his Super Bowl weird flukey stat and

0:11:03.720 --> 0:11:06.079
<v Speaker 1>it clearly has not kept him from winning the Super Bowl,

0:11:06.800 --> 0:11:08.400
<v Speaker 1>So we can at least have that as a sigh

0:11:08.400 --> 0:11:10.160
<v Speaker 1>of relief if they do start a little slow, that

0:11:10.200 --> 0:11:11.959
<v Speaker 1>he does seem to know how to win them without

0:11:11.960 --> 0:11:13.880
<v Speaker 1>scoring a touchdown in the first I probably should have

0:11:13.880 --> 0:11:15.520
<v Speaker 1>factored in the fact that we have Tom Brady when

0:11:15.559 --> 0:11:18.000
<v Speaker 1>I was talking about comebacks or not. Patrick Mahomes is

0:11:18.040 --> 0:11:20.760
<v Speaker 1>proven to be the comeback king in recent playoffs, but

0:11:21.360 --> 0:11:25.200
<v Speaker 1>Tom Brady certainly has plenty of yeah, a body of

0:11:25.240 --> 0:11:27.200
<v Speaker 1>evidence and coming back in the bag that seems to

0:11:27.240 --> 0:11:29.640
<v Speaker 1>know how to do that. Um. Trevor asked, I don't

0:11:29.640 --> 0:11:31.679
<v Speaker 1>think the Chiefs have an answer for Vita Vea. What

0:11:31.720 --> 0:11:33.199
<v Speaker 1>do you think and I want to just kind of

0:11:33.200 --> 0:11:36.000
<v Speaker 1>add on in general, how you think they're going to

0:11:36.080 --> 0:11:39.319
<v Speaker 1>handle our entire front seven, because that Chief's offensive line

0:11:39.360 --> 0:11:41.920
<v Speaker 1>has gone through a lot of changes. Yeah, since the

0:11:41.920 --> 0:11:44.040
<v Speaker 1>beginning of the season. I think they're They just had

0:11:44.040 --> 0:11:47.600
<v Speaker 1>maybe one of their original five starters left. Um. Yeah,

0:11:47.960 --> 0:11:52.040
<v Speaker 1>Davea is a tough It's tough for any team to handle.

0:11:52.280 --> 0:11:55.720
<v Speaker 1>Uh not just you know, he can hold up two blockers.

0:11:55.720 --> 0:11:58.360
<v Speaker 1>He can basically he can basically account for two gaps

0:11:58.679 --> 0:12:01.880
<v Speaker 1>in the running game in most plays. Um And as

0:12:01.920 --> 0:12:04.480
<v Speaker 1>we saw in the Green Bay game, he was actually

0:12:04.520 --> 0:12:07.120
<v Speaker 1>getting some pressure that was forcing Aaron Rodgers to run

0:12:07.160 --> 0:12:10.240
<v Speaker 1>towards Shack or towards JPP. I think mostly Shack. But

0:12:10.679 --> 0:12:13.760
<v Speaker 1>um yeah, I think they may not. I don't know

0:12:13.800 --> 0:12:15.520
<v Speaker 1>if they have an answer for him. It probably means

0:12:15.559 --> 0:12:17.560
<v Speaker 1>more than one blocker. But that's good for us on

0:12:17.600 --> 0:12:20.440
<v Speaker 1>the edges where they're trying to get by with Mike

0:12:20.520 --> 0:12:23.880
<v Speaker 1>Rimmer's at left tackle and uh I think Andrew Wiley

0:12:23.960 --> 0:12:26.520
<v Speaker 1>at right tackle. And those aren't the guys they started

0:12:26.520 --> 0:12:28.559
<v Speaker 1>the season with. So and they had two very good

0:12:28.600 --> 0:12:30.800
<v Speaker 1>tackles to start the season and through most of the

0:12:30.840 --> 0:12:33.920
<v Speaker 1>season until Eric Fisher got hurt in the FC Championship games.

0:12:33.920 --> 0:12:36.800
<v Speaker 1>So um, that certainly seems like an area that's an

0:12:36.800 --> 0:12:39.080
<v Speaker 1>advantage for the Buccaneers. So let's see if it plays

0:12:39.080 --> 0:12:41.000
<v Speaker 1>out that way. All right, well that is gonna do

0:12:41.040 --> 0:12:42.960
<v Speaker 1>it for us. On Buccaneers Inside a live presented by

0:12:43.040 --> 0:12:46.040
