Great game....................Great homefield..........Last time Seattle lost a playoff game was in Atlanta...........Saints, Seattle, and Atlanta 3 of the Top 5 homefields somewhere.
What it means: Hey, maybe Greg Schiano wasn't so bad after all. At least the Bucs usually were in games when he was coaching. That was never the case for Lovie Smith's crew Thursday. They were down 21-0 after the first quarter and it just kept getting worse. The Bucs seemed to take a big step backward after being close in Smith's first two games. Their defense was horrible and you can't use the fact that All-Pro defensive tackle Gerald McCoy was out with a hand injury as an excuse. The offense was dismal and the special teams allowed a Devin Hester punt return for a touchdown. Losses don't come much more thorough than this one. The Bucs are 0-3 and they're showing no signs that would give their fanbase any hope.
