Washington @ Tampa Bay Playoff Game
 
Official now. Time tbd. Sure hoping JD's leg soreness is nothing. Ironic that we play at Tampa which is the exact same setting as week 1. Not an easy game but winnable.

HTTC!

From what I saw of the Buccs today, it'll be 2 good O's run by 2 very good, if not great QB's, and 2 suspect defences. Likely a close game, but JD's legs may be the difference.

Perfect way to enter playoffs.

If we win, it will probably be similar to today and recent games. Start slow and playing horribly but then we finally turn things around and win with last minute heroics.

If we lose, then we can’t get past our weaknesses and quick exit it is.


I think we have a shot but playoffs are another level and if we play the way we did in the first half, we won’t win. We’re just lucky we held Dallas to mostly field goals or today would’ve been real ugly.

I’m glad we are facing Tampa though because you will see how far this team has grown or needs to grow; by facing our opening opponent.

Same setting as our last playoff game, night time in Tampa. Let's change the outcome and rip history a new one.

They’re beatable. Lost to Dallas the week before last when desperate to win the NFC South. Got to get after Mayfield and keep Evans from going off. Marshon - your time has come. Their D isn’t scary - it’s about limiting their O.

I was kind of hoping to go to LA, but this is also a good matchup for us. We can beat TB, we've basically been playing high pressure playoff style football for weeks now. These last minute finishes are giving me serious agita.

Re: Washington @ Tampa Bay Playoff Game
 
lattimore on evans, and limiting irving will be the keys on d.
On o, we need brob to get the power rush back..i dont know if hes been hurt or something, but hes not getting that push on defenders like he was earlier in the season. He isnt the back to get cute and break right or left for big gains. He needs to be able to punch up the middle and push the defenders forwards for several yards. It would also help if the receivers didnt have a case of the dropsies.
all in all, i think this is our best matchup for rd 1, i just wish it would have been saturday so i can get more sleep before work monday morning.

Re: Washington @ Tampa Bay Playoff Game
 
Oline has gotten ragged with Biadasz out and other injuries. Brob needs that first little gap to open — if he can get the first yard, he can power his way to 3 more. But he’s getting jammed at or behind the line. Let’s hope Tyler is back and that KK calls a fast tempo game that keeps Bucs D on its heels. Tampa is beatable.

People need to realize we greatly overachieved this season. This team isn't close to being a legit playoff contender. That won't happen until we get a good defense.

Agree, but we need the run to at least be a threat, and make the option, well, an option. We can't become one dimensional. If we get Biadasz and Lattimore back they could be difference makers.

We did very well it's been a great season but exit stage left with this negativity.

Any given Sunday.

Lattimore is someone you can not count on. So far this trade looks like shit. Even if he plays how effective will he be?

Sure, that’s their weakness, but Oline woes include terrible passpro, and if Bucs go heavy blitzing cause we have no run threat (other than #5), things could get ugly

Bucs are our best match up. As far as a deep run.....any given sunday. I don't think anyone though we would beat the eagles a couple weeks ago, and a couple months ago no one thought we would win 12 games. But here we are. Ride this motherfucker till the wheels fall off.

I understand and share this thought, but we are seeded correctly. Surprise team who is resilient and well coached with the limited pieces all over the place.

I think we can be spoiler though

Lattimore and the rookie are the only viable CB on the roster. They need a complete reset at CB this offseason

No doubt the Bucs will blitz especially when the Cowboys have shown the success against JD last Sunday. Also, Bowles is well known for calling a lot of blitz plays.

I have a real good feeling about this team right now.. 5 straight wins heading into the playoffs. JD5 should be rested and good to go.

We were 29th in the run defense. Just terrible. That said, our defense overachieved based on the talent we have on that side of the ball. That's a good sign of coaching right there. It does matter.

Can this team win out and take the Super Bowl? Absolutely. Will they though? I wouldn't bet any money on it. :D

Agreed. I think this team could very well play a spoiler. One thing they've shown over the course of this season is they don't stop fighting no matter how bleak the outcome looks.

And Tampa was 28th in pass defense. No team is perfect across the board, and our defense found ways to shut down teams in crunch time. Who knows how it will play out, but if Marshon and Sanristil are covering the back, that gives us a lot more strength to shut down runners.

I've been watching 1991 Redskins highlights all night. What Dan Snyder did to this franchise is beyond comprehension. Evil fucking troll.

But watching those highlights was awesome and Harris/Peters/Daniels are bringing us back. Life is short, I hope we're all here for it.

They are a very dangerous offense and I expect they will blitz our lights out on D. This game scares me. #7 is going to shred.

When I look back at that season and you compare the game now, it's like night and day. The game is so different today. But the same things still matter. In order to have a chance to win it all you need elite QB play, you need a strong o-line and you need a defense that can rush the passer, stop the run and create some turnovers.

We just aren't a complete enough team right now to make a SB run. I don't think Tampa is that kind of team either. We can win this one, I wouldn't be surprised either way if we won or lost.
