Tampa Bay Buccaneers BEAT the Tennessee Titans 13-10

The Bucs beat the Titans 13-10 thanks to a game winning drive by QB Jeff Garcia and a game winning Field Goal from K Matt Bryant to improve to (4-2) on the season; matching their entire amount of Wins from the previous season. That's about all of the insight I can give you into the game as FOX DID NOT TELEVISE THE GAME IN MY NECK OF THE WOODS. I'm pretty pissed off about it, but there's nothing I can do. I can't afford NFL Sunday Ticket at this stage in my life. FOX decided to televise Pro Bull Riding instead ....... Give me a friggon break. Nothing against Professional Bull Riders, but watching that on television is akin to watching Soccer, simply put it sucks; its boring ..... to ..... me.

Being that I can't really offer an opinion on the on field performance, all I can do is talk about the stat sheet from ESPN. Um, Rookie Defensive End Gaines Adams had the first Sack of his career/season, so yea that's great (I would have liked to see it, as it took a while). Apparently CB Ronde Barber had two interceptions that were overturned. K Josh Bidwell had a heck of a game punting. CB Phillip Buchanon recorded an interception in Brian Kelly's absence. MLB Barrett Ruud continued his dominant performance by leading the team with 11 tackles. Jeff Garcia spread the rock around today, hitting six different receivers. The running game is nonexistent to this point and should the 2.2 average per run continue for Mr. Earnest Graham, we may need to bring in an overpaid veteran free agent not named Zach Crockett.

All in all, today's game seemed like an exciting game that went all the way down to the wire. I'm just thrilled Comcast and Fox thought I would enjoy a Bull Rodeo more than watching my favorite NFL Team beat the Titans. We are rolling through the competition and I'm loving it. The last observation I have is that DT Jovan Haye put Titans QB Vince Young out of the game in the third quarter. I think Young tweaked his hammy before Jovan laid the hit, but never-the-less way to pursue Jovan!!!!

Thanks again Fox, I really appreciate it

listen man

CBS had the Jags and Texans on, while Fox had Bull Riding ..... freak what a TV Map has to say. The Bucs have been on FOX the entire year, they should have been on Fox yesterday.

As for details of the game, I can't confirm anything as I didn't see one minute of the game. All I can go by is stats ......

you haven't been watching the NFL long have you?

Fox didnt have the rights to broadcast sunday's game. when an AFC teams plays a NFC team the visitor decides who had broadcast rights. since the Titans were visiting CBS was the broadcaster.

that means two Bucs game are on CBS every year.

nah

I've been watching the NFL since Montana played with Jerry Rice and I've been watching the Bucs pretty much since Derrick Brooks/Warrick Dunn got there, i just never knew how the broadcasting worked.

The fact still remains that the game wasnt televised in my broadcasting area, maybe i should direct my anger toward CBS for showing a lifeless Jags game ..... moving on

How did Tanard look? Gaines Adams sack? B.J. Askews touches? Did the line help Earnest or leave out to dry?
