Can't get a perfect angle of it I guess, but it was clearly out before he broke the plane.

I thought so too although it was difficult to see where exactly the ball came out.

Last week I thought he clearly cleared the goal line against the Steelers and they overturned it.

Refs are blind and seem to make calls randomly as usual,

Holding call on Easton on the last drive was BS as well.

Agreed on all of these. That wasn't a hold. 

 
So.... Bradford's wearing Case's Uniform fooling all.. right??  ;)

I have had Stefon Diggs on my team for 2 years and I STILL have no clue when to start this guy.   :wall:

So much for thinking the Bucs defense was strong

 
Big catch by Diggs. 

Almost show boated too much on this after breaking the shoe string tackle attempt. The defender catches up to him before he crosses the goal line because of imitating Deon Sanders.

 
Nice play Diggs But finish.. Stop showing off before you get to the end zone.. Lucky not to get tackled/fumble there..

Any ways.. 28-3!!!! :excited:

 
Any insight on what's up with Rudolph? No catches, is he being targeted? Just in the blocking game?

This is a high scoring game, strange to not see him at least get some points on the board. 

 
Bucs convert their first third down with an out route to Brate on the right side. This play worked earlier on in the game as well. 

Then the Bucs go on to score with Brate as the Vikings defense gets caught out of position a bit on that drive.

No intermediate passing. All short screens or deep routes. Mostly game plan.

Thanks, gb. I think my thinking on Rudolph as a dependable floor low Top 10 TE is not going to come to fruition this year. Game plans through 2.5 games don't seem to be utilizing him in the passing game like they did in past seasons. Likely has to do with Thielen and Diggs' coming into their own and having a credible running threat than anything else.

Diggs was hurt last year and Bradford checked down to Rudolph way more than they should have.

So yes you should not be expecting the same numbers as last year.

Cook back in the game now.

 
Cook looked like he might be able to house that last run, goes down to the ankle tackle. Doesn't matter as holding on Theilen.

Same boat. Have no choice but to ride him out. Sucks he's now boom or bust.

I wasn't expecting the same numbers, that would be silly -- he basically doubled his reception and yardage output from historical average.

I just thought that he would be involved in the passing game. 50 reception/500 yards kind of pace. Not sure he can get anywhere near that pace given how this offense has looked. Is he droppable for someone with higher upside?

He should still get 50 and 500 over the season.

Just had a catch in the red zone where you can expect to see him targeted more.

 
McCoy injured. Hope he is ok. Really like him as a person and a football player.

Good coverage in the red zone to hold the Vikings to a field goal there.
