Raheem's statement could work one of two ways. A) your team will believe it and respond. B) Teams will think your arrogant when you have done nothing for a number of years and want to batter then self-appointed best team in the NFC.
Its already worked. We have raised our game in the last 3 weeks. I know we have had 2 close wins and a close loss but we are a much better team than we were at the start of year. Theres just a little bit of inconsistancy at the moment but you get that with a young team full of rookies and 2nd year players. Look, no one n Tampa is arrogent enough to thnk we will be competing this year but you need to instill the confidence now to get these pkayers to improve. In 2 or 3 years time with a few good additions to the O Line and D line I think we will have a pretty special team.
1 thing though... I really like Raheem and he is willing to try things like the unsuccessful onside kick yesterday with loads of time left (jeez, how close was that to coming off) but can they PLEASE keep the red flag away from him! I cant remember the last time we went into the last 2 minutes with a TO left.
I also think that we will pick off either ATL or NO in our last game against these 2. Its unusual for us to lose both games to both of them.
