Bandwagon? Nah, Atlanta just looks worse right now.

The Bucs lucked out and got a team going through a carnival of shit. I'm not convinced they'll beat anybody else.

Perhaps - and that is why they play the game. Big Grin. Did you forget that the Bucs had Seattle down by 21 in an overtime loss prior to that? I expected Seattle to roll over them by at least three scores.

Momentum is a factor, and that is something Atlanta does not have.

Bill Barnwell thinks momentum in football is largely mythical, and I'm inclined to agree after watching my team not have any.

Barnwell may be right; Barnwell may be full of shit. I'm rolling the dice trying to pick up some upset wins. Big Grin

Your team has all the momentum in the world. Unfortunately, intertia is carrying them in an unintended direction.
