1. Ballsy move by Grudog on that play.
I don't think Mike got in for the 2 but so what, the review was inconclusive.
Big help from the Bucs and Vikings today.

2. elbow was down, horrible call
Of course, if Lavar goes for a straight tackle and not that leap, he would have been stopped way short

5. Hey Cush - how 'bout Ovechkin! Skins got screwed by Gruden was...

Gutsy. I'll give him credit for that. For following Vermeil's example.

3. I miss fullbacks
Csonka, that was football. I know Allstot plays more like a smackover tailback but damn he's tough and fun to watch. Football wasn't as good last year when he was out with injury. A guy like that deserves the benefit of a doubt just because he isn't another wiggly halfback. Two points!

4. I love Alstott, BUT several calls screwed the 'Skinz.

But I still love Alstott.

6. yes, the push out on Galloway was awful
but the Skins got some calls too. And none of that excuses making Chris Simms look like vintage Phil Simms. The Skins defense is absurdly weak, based on past history.

7. The Skins must stop handing the ball to the other team. Taylor's ...
absence sure was felt on defense.

8. Fans in Tampa have been chanting his name ...
in the last couple of home games. The ground game for the Bucs has sucked. Cadillac has been hurt and people are sick of seeing Michael Pittman get knocked over by people with only one hand or worse yet tripping over his own feet.
To make matters worse the O-line can't block worth a crap.
What better reason to go to a power running game? But Gruden refuses to use Alstott for anything other than short yardage situations. What few times he has used him, Mike has made some good gains and then never gets the ball the rest of the game.
