Gameday Thread: Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Chicago Bears Week 3
Tampa Bay Buccaneers @ Chicago Bears
| TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS (1-1) | Home Opener | CHICAGO BEARS (1-1) | |||
![]() |
VS. | ![]() |

| Date: | September 21, 2008 | Location: | Chicago, Illinois |
| Time: | 1:00 p.m. ET |
Stadium: | Soldier Field |
| TV: | WTVT (FOX 13) | Favorite: | Bears by 3 |
| Radio: | US 103.5 (FM) 620 WDAE (AM) |
Over/Under: | 35.5 |
| Weather: |
72 Degrees 10% Rain Chance |
Injury Report: |
See Below |
| SBN Coverage: | Windy City Gridiron | My Prediction: |
BUCS EUTHANIZE BEARS!!!! |
| Final Score: | Buccaneers 27 Bears 24 | ||
Ridiculous stat: The Buccaneers are (0-8) after having won by double digits at home. That streak needs to come to an end today.
Questionable for the Bucs: DE Gaines Adams (ribs), CB Aqib Talib (hamstring), and LB Derrick Brooks (hamstring); Out for the Bucs: WR Joey Galloway (ankle) and RG Davin Joseph (foot).
Doubtful for the Bears: S Craig Steltz; Out for the Bears: S Brandon McGowan and T Chris Williams, and WR/PR Devin Hester.
The Bucs stopped Rookie RB Michael Turner in his tracks last week (42 yards) after the Falcon gained over 200 yards the previous week. This week's test comes in the form of another Rookie, RB Matt Forte. He broke 100 yards in week 1 against the Colts and nearly repeated that feat against the run stingy Panthers defense. Buc Up Defense!!

This will be a blue collar
defensive slobberknocker of a game. I hope Graham can find some running room.

GAME DAY#3
This is a game we gotta win or everyones gonna bash our BUCS. I watch ESPN all the time and they never have any highlights of the BUCS or anything. Always the same `ol crap about the same `ol teams they like. INDY,JACKSONVILLE,PATRIOTS ETC..This is a chance to open up some eyes around the NFL. This is going to be a tough old style NFC matchup the BLACK and BLUE division, and I think the BUCS need this one real bad. We have to go 2-1. 1-2 is going to be rough to pull out of this year I think. GO BUCS!!!

I agree with everything you said… the Bucs really need to come out swinging today. A win is needed in the worst way. Nobody respected this team last season and that holds true this season, the rest be damned we gotta triumph

Internet Radio
Does anyone else here listen to Bucs radio play by play of the game? I’m in Southern California and this is the first week I’m trying to listen over the internet, but I’m not sure if there’s a rule that the stations can’t play the games over the internet, like the MLB has.

I wish that was an option.
Hamilton inexplicably extended Fulmer after last year’s skin-of-our-teeth run to Atlanta. The buyout is insanely high and the school has mucho $$$ tied up in the stadium renovation. In short, we’re stuck with him for awhile.

In a flex spot?
I’d still go with Addai. WR are finicky, especially with Harrison back and Wayne being the go to guy. I guess it depends on your league’s format (yards, etc,), but Addai should still get goal line touches and find the end zone regularly.
