Loved this quote from Smitty after the game - juraitwaluzka - 11-07-2010 09:42 PM
"We're 6-2 and we're not happy about it"
Reminds me of this quote:
Restlessness is discontent and discontent is the first necessity of progress. Show me a thoroughly satisfied man and I will show you a failure.
Thomas A. Edison

Yep....and a +1 to you for the Edison find.

I'm happy about it. We could easily be 7-1, or 4-4 the way I see it.

Smitty told the truth.... Big Plays on D, and Special Teams are killing us.

You can also sprinkle in that Mike Williams TD and that PI call on Moore(I wish Moore turned his head fully around so he wouldn't have gotten the flag)...TB got yards in chunks on those plays basically...
^^^Those are the things that kept TB in the game and kept it closer than it should have been. Honestly, I'm not that impressed with TB and what they showed me today.

But they're "the best team in the NFC"!

I can completely agree with our Coach's statement there. I can't say I am satisfied with this team either. We have the talent to dominate other teams, but are suffering from inexcusable mental lapses that are causing these games to be much closer than they should be. We have a very tough opponent coming in here Thursday and honestly there is no time for celebrating. I hope we are ready because this will be a difficult game and the Ryan vs Flacco thing will likely be heavily advertised for the next several days.

Great quote. Can't get content half way through the season, or else you might as well be little Jimmy Mora.

No doubt! Not only were the words great, he said it with such vigor and passion, I really believe the whole team is buying in.
It will be interesting to see the state of us and the Bucs by the time the next game comes around. I think we will be fine but I don't think trying to pump themselves up with self compliments is going to get the job done over the long haul, we will see.
