The offensive problems all started on the OL. Zero push, not even cracks to run through and the interior line got dominated all night. Andy had one throw sail for an INT (and the one right on AJs hands that he muffed for an INT) but the biggest issue was not being able to step into throws because there was no pocket. While the entire offense looked lethargic the OL was by far the biggest culprit - and against a decidedly average DL to boot.
Defensively Paulie was back in his vanilla comfort zone. Preseason or not, they should be showing multiple looks, twisting, stunting and everything on D. That is how your defenders gain proficiency. Instead we played so utterly vanilla that there was literally no pressure and Winston (a bad QB) had a clean pocket and enough time to compose his legal defense back there. Notice that the few times we actually did something not vanilla the Bucs offense immediately stalled.
