Thoughts on the Bucs.

[Hoopsdoc]

1. Pittman is a beast. Pay the man.

2. I think Pierce gets a bum rap sometimes. He just isn’t that involved on a week to week basis. I’m sure it’s tough to stay focused.

3. They need to get Downs more involved. He’s a playmaker.

4. Until they showed Shaq Leonard in the box, I didn’t even realize he wasn’t there.

5. Defo is a beast but they miss Grover badly.

6. Overall I was disappointed in the defense, especially the run defense. Tampa is one of the worst running teams in the league and the colts gave up 125 yards. Ebukam was a really good signing.

7. Mallory is ok but he feels like a less talented version of Ogletree.

8. Moss is the best backup running back in the league.

9. JT is really really good.

10. What can you say about Minshew? He is just so frustrating to watch. He makes the routine plays interspersed with some of the most boneheaded plays you’ll ever see. He reminds me in that way of Wentz.

11. I thought this was one of Steichens worst games so far. The decision to go for it on 4th and 6 in the 3rd quarter was awful. Inexcusable really.

12. At the end of the day, the Colts are in the playoffs as of right now.
