Thats a little harsh and way too soon to be pulling the guy. Yes I think we will all agree that Ryan is sucking a huge one right now but we drafted this guy to be our QB, and we have seen that he is capable.

We cant pull the guy cause he is having a beyond ****** game, did you really think hes not gonna throw picks this year...ya maybe they were terrible picks in terrible situations but this is the NFL and Tampa did have the #1 pass defense in the league last year.

Let him finish the game and try to improve in the second half.

Guys idk why ya are bitching. We have a rookie QB, ya knew this was coming.

Sure, I expected INTs. I mean he threw a ton his senior year, why not? But this is just completely detrimental to the team. Because not only is he throwing INTs, but he's making stupid decisions and not completing any passes. He's beating us right now, because he's also completely shutting down the run game.

I just can't see things changing much the second half. Good luck though.

a bad half and youre calling him to be benched already! say with incredible fortune we win wildcard and make the playoffs. you want us to be embarrassed by the giants or bears or even the seahawks? and that with redman at the helm.. peyton had an atrocious rookie year but no one benched him. just stick with it guys. dont give up so quickly. the bucs have a good defense. and just like jimmy johnson just said, he needs the experience.

I agree, leave him in, he needs this, Mike Smith is not going to just bench the guy. Let him develop.

good play by snelling. Boy the halftime went by fast.

[Bosanac01]

good for us griese sucks a little too.

[Bosanac01]

Nice to see a opening drive stop. Lets see if we can get something going. We only need 2 possessions.

[Bosanac01]

yes, we need a score here, comeon boys.

[Bosanac01]

we need the run going, come on turner/norwood.

[dunagan15]

Nothing Ryan can do there, O line looked pretty bad that series

[ATLDirtyBirds]

Another drive killed.

[dunagan15]

Great punt, that penalty is huge as well. C'mon guys lets force a turnover.

[Bosanac01]

D-line good, O-line bad. Whats happening?

Exactly what we need, a turnover. Thats what is going to turn this game around.

[dunagan15]

haha is it just me or does the head ref. seemed so pissed to keep calling penalties

[Bosanac01]

OMG that pissed me off. Chris Houston needs a tackling lesson.

[ATLDirtyBirds]

Way too many 8-12 yard plays.
