Hainsey now out for the game, and Leverett has had to switch to center

Godwin puts the ball on the carpet.

No Evans or Wirfs either why the **** did these coaches even play Brady then? going to have his first losing season because so many key players out

 

[VectorPrime]

So did they accomplish what they wanted to do? I mean the stat line kind of implies it, Brady played basically the whole first half and got some decent reps.

So anything else? Injuries? I mean the losing record blows but I guess that’s the plan.

Anyone watch this?

Nah they left unscathed

Just a losing record for TB12 for 1st time in his career

Gives him the chance to be the only QB with a losing record to go on to win the superbowl

I watched some of it, but I had some work to do that took me away from my ability to multi-view, so I ended up mostly watching just the Patriots.

Disappointing. Not sure why Brady played at all in this game. A lot of starters were out yet Brady plays 1.5 quarters and gets saddled with the loss as the scrubs get outscored 0-20 in the second half. 8-9 is ugly record for a playoff team. I guess that doesn't matter much to a loser like Bowles.

I BET what happened is that Bowles told Brady that he was sitting a bunch of starters who could use the rest and essentially said “if you want to play to accomplish whatever that’s cool but we’re taking this game lightly” to him. Which is fine but leaves a bad taste.

Give me Tampa at home against this trash Cowboys team.

Bowles predictably had a loser's mentality and approach to this game. Brady and the team will have to overcome their grossly incompetent head coach in the postseason to make any sort of run.

I think it's ridiculous that they settled for a losing record instead of trying to avoid it. If I were the owner, I'd probably consider that a firing offense.

Did anyone ask in the postgame?

I had to go to the grocery store, so I haven't seen anything on the subject.

Dumb giving a QB a “loss” if he started and built a lead but didn’t play the whole game and his backup coughs up the lead.

It’s one of Brady’s three loses to the Bills. Final game of 2014.

So. For once in his miserably overrated insufferable career can Rodgers pull off the upset against San Fran and keep the Bucs from having to play the Eagles or San Fran in the divisional round? Can that as.shole do that please? Because Bucs can beat the Vikings. And if the Vikings choke the Bucs host the GIANTS. The GIANTS.

And if the Packers can knock off the Eagles…the NFCCG is in Tampa.

That's exactly how I laid it out. Either way, anyone but NYG from the NFC can get to the SB. Although I also have a hard time believing MIN can get there their garbage defense.

I would bet the Bucs to win against Kirk’s Vikings. I simply would, don’t care what the analytics say.
