That's all they needed to do. All they care about is winning, not covering the point spread for gamblers. They ran out tons of clock in the second half with that "1 dimensional" offense. I think they took out almost 10 minutes on one drive alone. TB will take that second half they played every time in that situation, even if it didn't please their backers.
might sound cruel but ANY time you lay more than 7 points in any football game on any level ... you know what you've signed up for. there's no doubt tampa controlled the football game. but this one was a good example of just how tough it is to cover big numbers on the nfl level. heading into this game, anyone with tampa knew full well they were laying a LOT of points with a team who is very conservative. every single point matters. once you get out past a chalk of 4 points, youre getting into the territory where you leave yourself open to the backdoor. the chalk in this game wasnt the early 2000 version of the saint louis rams. 99% of nfl teams are more than happy to win by 1 point. bucs did their job today. they dominanted the game and thats what matters.
Double wammy, Houston -9.5 and Tampa -10.5. Learned a big lesson today. BTW - FU Houston and Tampa! As a side note, Tampa is impressive at home but they won't do shit on the road and Houston is serious fade material in the future. Tennessee, Buffalo, Giants, Pittsburgh and the Redskins look like the real deal this year! BTW x 2, FU Houston and Tampa - you suck ardvark d*ck!
