The two main things people were talking about after the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' last game were the team's epic fourth-quarter collapse and Todd Bowles' response to it.
Tampa led a 4-9 Atlanta Falcons team by 14 in the fourth quarter, had a win probability above 92% with less than two minutes left and somehow lost the game.
On his weekly radio show ⁘Bucs Total Access⁘, Bowles explained that his reaction was a culmination of not just one bad night, but weeks of poor play.
“When you get beat on simple fundamentals and technique, that is something I really can't stand or can't take, and that's the frustrating part of it,” Bowles said.
“And not taking it out on one player or anybody else, but we know what we've been doing the past few weeks, and when those mistakes creep up at the end with the game on the line and we understand we gotta execute and we don't do it — and we've done it 50 million times — that part really bothers you and really pisses you off.” The only teams with a chance to win that division are Tampa (7-7) and the Carolina Panthers (7-7). Through a scheduling anomaly, the teams face each other twice in the last three weeks of the regular season, with the first meeting scheduled for this Sunday at 1 in Charlotte.
