Did the Rams just make a fatal mistake? Don't they know Tom Brady feeds off these types of losses come playoffs?  We can safely say the Buccaneers brought their C-game, whereas the Rams brought their A-game. The Rams had this game circled on the calendar. There were celebrities in attendance: the cast of Ted Lasso, Halsey, Mike Tyson, Kate Hudson, Rob Lowe and the Kardashians. This game appeared to mean more to them than it did to the Buccaneers. You would think it was a Super Bowl game.  

The Buccaneers showed up lackluster and without energy. The refs certainly didn't help the Bucs' case, but we don't think the results would have been different had they called a clean game.   

We're not concerned though. Teams that peak this early rarely carry it through the season. And while we wanted to see an undefeated season, the reality is that was always a longshot. Recall if you will how the Bucs played at the beginning of last season and ask yourself if we are even close to that mediocre now. We will only get better.  

This feeling is weird. It's been a long time since we've had a Monday like this. Consider that a blessing.
