I've already had too much wine, so when Atlanta scores in this drive, I'm out.
Vaya con dio amigos!

How do you know when it is “too much wine”?
Good night sister, thanks for leading the thread.
Bucs with the deep score. Williams couldn’t find a way to get called for offensive pass interference that time. Drink!
Ok. That'll do it.
The Panther husband is really getting mad because he thinks I should want them to beat my Bucs next week. To keep Saints/Falcons from winning the division. It's like he doesn't know who I am.

My lord....unreal season
Was happy to my Bucs not stop fighting in this one. They could have easily hung it up.
RBs looked determined, Evans was on it, Defense fought hard, and most importantly...Jameis had composure tonight, was refreshing to see that.
But had to end with “wide right”
Barf.

Well that's nice of the ref to fall. Didn't expect to win. Jameis played great. Didn't get slaughtered.
Meh. Drink. And good night.

Bucs' Jameis Winston reminds what's possible in loss to Falcons
TAMPA, Fla. -- His receivers were dropping like flies. His defense was too. If the Bucs had lost any more players, they might have had to seriously consider plucking some retired players, who were out in full force for Jon Gruden's ring of honor induction, from the stands.
In spite of it, Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Jameis Winston -- finally healthy himself after suffering a sprained AC joint in his throwing shoulder -- reminded us what he is capable of, even in a 24-21 loss to the Atlanta Falcons on Monday Night Football.
Winston completed 27 of 35 passes for 299 yards, three touchdowns and no interceptions (no fumbles, either). His 130.5 passer rating wasn't just a season high, it was the second-highest of his career, even as his receiving options and protection dwindled throughout the game.
"Talk about 'next man up.' I mean, good Lord, we had so many injuries," Winston said. "So many unfortunate things have been happening, but you know, when I woke up this morning one of my good buddies had called me and read me Proverbs [18:12]. It basically was, 'You must have humility before honor.' … We were resilient, but we just fell short. It was unfortunate. … We just have to humble ourselves and keep digging and keep working."
Tight end O.J. Howard had a 30-yard catch-and-run in the first quarter, but he was injured on the play when he was hit in the ankle by Brian Poole and did not return. Wide receiver DeSean Jackson left with an ankle injury. Right guard J.R. Sweezy also left with a lower leg injury, with the Bucs' offensive line having already lost two starters -- right tackle Demar Dotson and center Ali Marpet -- for the season.

"I think this [was] Jameis Winston at his best," head coach Dirk Koetter said. "We've seen him at his best for parts of several games, but this was probably his best and most complete game. I've seen it over the last three years at different times. Our division is loaded with excellent quarterbacks and I think Jameis, with more experience, is going to be right there with them."
At 4-10 and 0-4 in the division, there's no mistaking that this season has been a disaster for the Bucs, and Koetter's chances to return as head coach next season are growing slimmer and slimmer with each loss. Nothing this season has seemed to go right for Winston, either, between the injury and the Uber allegations and reports of a rift with Koetter and some untimely turnovers.
"I [couldn't] let my team down," Winston said. "I know I've let them down a couple of times this year, but I [had] to compete. It's Monday Night Football. We are the only game on TV -- why not compete? It's just unfortunate."
But this isn't really about now. Not for Winston. Koetter might be fighting for his job, but this is about the future for Winston. Whoever is coaching him next season will see that he does, in fact, have the tools to be successful.
