Bucs come back down to earth.

Two losses in less than seven days have brought the Bucs crashing down to earth following their 2-0 start. A season that started with such promise is now back to square one. The team’s record is now 2-2 after their disastrous showing in Chicago today and they now have a bye week to reflect or pray for a miracle, before going on the road again to face the Falcons.

Fitzmagic may have come to an end but will it be any different under Winston? The offensive line is as weak as a wet paper bag and the defense keeps giving up yards like its candy on Halloween. Injuries have handcuffed the defense and the depth is not there to make up for the absences. I am not sure Mike Smith is the answer as a Defensive Coordinator either and perhaps Bucs head coach Dirk Koetter should find a replacement during the bye week.

The dream of watching this team enter the bye week 4-0 is over.  12 games remain and the way this season could end positively with a playoff berth. This season could also go down in flames where we may see a change in General Manager, coach, and perhaps the end of Jameis Winston as the franchise quarterback. Us Bucs fans though will have to endure the highs and lows the rest of the way, one game at a time.
