Personal Narrative: The Bucs Team

Improved Essays
This team showed great adversity yesterday. Now I know this game should not have been as close as it was and that needs to be fixed. But for this young Buccaneers team to come out and surrender a two score lead and still overcome adversity is an impressive feat and shows growth with this Bucs team. So many times in the past, we have watched our Bucs slowly self destruct and lose big leads and never get them back. Yes the Bucs should have blown them out, yes the Bucs still suffer from the kicking blues (as of yesterday), yes the Bucs didn't get a sack against a lackluster Giants offensive lineman. But dammit, we won the game and at the end of the day that is all that truly matters. Finding a way to win no matter what is something we have missed for almost a decade. …show more content…
They're things the Bucs must work on if they want to make the leap and make the postseason, which is something they have preached all off-season. But this win yesterday is something to be proud of, at least for now. Next we the New England Patriots on Thursday night right here In Tampa and you better believe that team is pissed off over what happened on Sunday. If we can somehow pull out the upset or even look good losing, then this year will Indeed be everything we thought it was. Well, hopefully that is. So enjoy this win while you can because in just 3 days we go back to

    Last Sunday the Buccaneers secondary just got destroyed by Case Keenum. Honestly, if I didn't know it was the Kennum playing I would have thought Peyton Manning came out of retirement to play in this game. Keenum threw for 369 yards and 3 touchdowns. The Vikings just picked apart Ryan Smith and Vernon Hargreaves all game. On the first drive, Adam Thielen just straight beat Vernon on a double move for 45-yards.…

    In 120 2/3 innings pitched, the staff has fanned 153 batters and only walked 83. That is an almost a two one ration in strikeouts to walk. This next stat is pretty amazing as opponents are only batting .210 against the Hurricane pitchers. Something else to note is the Coastal Homeschool has had players advance on to the college level.…

    It was a midsummer's night in August as the Philadelphia Eagles made their preseason debut. All eyes watched with cautious optimism as Carson Wentz took the field shortly after the two-minute warning. He strode on to the field to roaring applause as all eyes were on him in the midnight green helmet. Wentz is a vital part of the future and got his first taste on Thursday night of what it means to be an NFL quarterback. Being a rookie at any level or position in the NFL is never easy but being drafted into his situation is a major challenge.…

    Essay On Bucs Offense

    The Buccaneers haven’t exactly kept it a secret that they will spend a lot of time this season running a no-huddle, hurry-up offense. Second year quarterback Jameis Winston and the Bucs offense put together their best game of the preseason against the Cleveland Browns when Tampa ran out of the no-huddle every play the starters were on the field. Head coach Dirk Koetter surely couldn’t expect to use the hurry-up approach that much in a regular season game, could he? Winston and the offense have all said they would rather operate out of the no-huddle system.…

    They are worse than the Browns and the Jets! The Patriots are giving up an average of 133 rushing yards, 324 passing yards, and 32 points per game. The Buccaneers are sadly only averaging just under 85 yards rushing per game. On the bright side, we will have Doug aka Muscle Hamster Martin back for Thursday home game.…

    Collectively speaking, all four members of the AFC South haven’t had much to get excited about in recent years. While there have been glimmers of hope, particularly for the Houston Texans, having made three Divisional Round appearances (2011, 2012, 2016), the AFC South has been wildly inconsistent, especially following Peyton Manning’s departure from the Indianapolis Colts in 2011. Honestly, the only real consistency has been the Jacksonville Jaguars’ miserable performances, which haven't produced a season above .500 in nearly a decade! Presently, the Tennessee Titans have serious reasons for optimism.…

    “I thought he had a typical first day,” said Lovie Smith on 1st overall pick Jameis Winston’s first day with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. “We saw a lot of good things today.” Sure, Winston is a very talented player, a BCS National Champion, and the 2013 Heisman Trophy winner; but unfortunately the name ‘Jameis Winston’ draws to mind a lot more than his accomplishments on the field.…

    David and Goliath Growing up in rural Minnesota has had it’s disadvantages. But it has also had it’s advantages. Just like what Malcolm Gladwell highlights in his book “David and Goliath: misfits and the art of battling Giants.” Having a childhood in rural Minnesota was not always as wondrous as the magazines make it out to be. There is a lack of communication, a lack of connection and the nearest convenience store is 10 miles away.…
