Another week goes by and the Buccaneers found a way to not find that winning edge that it takes to close out a game in the fourth quarter. As a team we recovered well from the blocked and missed FGs in the first qtr. On our third drive, of the game, Glennon throws an INT. I feel we should have continued running the ball instead of throwing. Even though Vjax caught the 3rd and 1, running on first is always a high percentage play for yardage.
In the second quarter we had an 8 play drive that resulted in a TOUCHDOWN. We only got to 3rd down once that drive and that's when we hit "Good Times" Evans for the 24yd TD.
Next Browns series we get an INT and are at the CLE 10yd line. I feel we shouldn't have abandoned the run so quick just because Rainey had a loss of 5 yards. Glennon throws and INT.
Even with a couple of bad play calls the Bucs were in control in the first half.
Coming out of halftime we did ok in the 3rd by matching the Browns TD and making them punt two times. 4th qtr is what killed us. We had (2) three and outs, one coming after we picked of the Browns and had the ball on our 39yd line. After they scored in 2 plays we punt the ball back to them in 4 plays.
We couldn't produce any points during crunch time or sustain a consistent game plan that kept drives alive in the second half. The straw that broke the camels back was having 2nd, 3rd, and 4th and 1 and threw all three times. At some point Lovie should have done something to gain that single yard that we needed. It's very disappointing to see the Bucs come out with so much intensity to only lose the momentum and intensity in the second half.
FINAL: Bucs 17 Browns 22 highlights
