Love this, from Peter King's Monday Morning QB:

Quote of the Week II
"Tell Peter King we already got our two wins.''
-- Tampa Bay cornerback Ronde Barber, in the victorious Buccaneers locker room at Carolina Sunday, after the Bucs beat the Panthers 20-7. Tampa Bay is 2-0. I picked the Bucs to be 2-14 in the SI NFL Preview Issue.

Oops.

Young Qbs stepping up for weak teams and shutting up media know-it-alls is a beautiful thing.

The Bucs are my 2nd team. Freeman looks like the real deal. It will be interesting to see how the Bucs play against the Steelers Sunday.

Too bad the media has largely been right about what they've said about the Bills so far.

Actually, we did back in 2008 when we went 4-0. Of course you know how that story ended. It's a long season. I would wait before anointing Freeman with anything. JMO

Glad to see the Bucs starting out the season well. Was a big Bucs fan growing up but since moving to WNY, I've had the privilege of watching the Bills play a lot more and not so much the Bucs.

that's a punishment, not a privilege. Of course, I pay for Sunday Ticket to watch the Bills, so I guess that makes me some kind of masochist.

We should follow VAn Pelts and bench Trent.

So you mean the problem all along was Losman and Edwards and not Van Pelt?

this team has turned into an agatha christie novel. no one knows who's to blame. all we know is that there are a ton of dead bodies and someone inside one bills drive is the killer.

It is early so anything can happen. That said, the fact that the team is exhibiting the same flaws as last season (i.e., week QB and OL play, lack of pass rush, etc.) is disconcerting. Since these areas were not addressed in the offseason I guess we should not be surprised, but it is painful to watch no matter how you look at it.

Re: This is how you make the media eat their words:

They have a young QB that makes plays...but just an average OL. The QB position is where teams are made or broken.
