Well I did say special teams had a hand in TB getting the ball back with decent field position where Dixon outkicked the coverage.

Not one person is saying the offense isn't shit. It is.
But when you have just one more drive to go in the last 40 seconds with no time-outs and the odds are .1% of the other team winning and then Morris makes the calls he did, then you are going to get really upset people. No way in hell should we have lost that game except to a Hail Mary pass (and how many times does that happen).

nah if Ramsey could catch worth a shit it probably would be over.
Coach "Rah" mentioned this in his presser - when people get their hands on the ball they plays need to be made.
We dropped 3 big interceptions in that game.

The second tweet has some interesting stuff about Raheem's plans in the secondary.

I have stated many times Morris is doing a very good job this year but sometimes he does dumbass things that just go beyond belief in my opinion. It's like - what were you thinking on those plays/drives.
The 4th quarter defense and explicitly the last drive was some dumbass shit. You don't go into 100% soft zone shit when leading by only 7 points when in the first 3 quarters you limit TB to two drives that go over 20 yards by mixing up soft zone and press. I will look at this game and show the ratios of soft zone and press in the first 3 quarters and then compare them to the 4th quarter drives this weekend.

Jalen is smart and seasoned enough to play up on his man if he wants to. He can make up for the shitty prevent defense that gets played out on the field. Plus, he gets to be featured in the star packages.

Let me give a different scenario on just how bad the last drive was
Your offense has played a very good game and scored 28 points and the defense has given up 20.
Less than 3 minutes to go and the other team has run out of time outs
You are at the opponents 25 yard line and on 3rd down and 8 or so if you run a play straight up the middle and then run down the clock to around 2 minutes, you can kick approximately a 42 yard field goal which your placekicker has been making all year. You will be up 11 points and basically the game is over because the other team probably will take awhile to go down the field thereby running out of time and having to do an onside kick which was almost impossible that year.
However you decide to do a pass play, the OL commits a holding call and the next play the QB gets sacked putting them out of FG range. That was basically a dumbshit call on the OC's part. And they ended up losing the game due to that playcall
Sound familiar - that OC is still a very good offensive play caller but that was a dumbshit call and cannot be defended.
Same thing with Morris - he can call a really good game for 3 and 3/4 quarters and end up doing stupid shit in the last drive to allow the other team to win the game. The calls cannot be defended.

Well he does do extremely well in the red zone - I give him a lot of credit for that.
