Some football games are won and lost in the first quarter...
Others last all the way until the very last second Of the game. As the Buccanneers played the Redskins, the game was lost early on, but all of the sudden they came back and it resulted in a good game.
On September 30th the Bucaneers were down by 18 points by the third quarter. But I also remember when we (the pioneers) were down against searcy 21 to 7 at half. We had our heads down but then were reminded that it was a whole new ball game come half. As we headed out for the second half we gave it all we got! Our defense didnt let them score the whole second half and our offense went to work scoring trying to catch back up with our dying chance. We narrowed their lead and before we knew it we won the game by only a couple of points. Like us the Bucaneers were down but they remained aware that after half it's a whole new ball game. They erased the Redskins lead and brought the game back to two points. They ended up losing 24-22 but they came back just as we did with the hope of winning and we both realized that you can always be back in the game of you believe.
In the end the fact of the matter is we both knew what had to be done and we came out there and gave it all we had pulling both of our teams back into the game. We held our own and bright out the win. They almost did the same. Bucaneers head coach stated " we didn't play smart football" and that's what will make you lose. But after shooting yourself in the foot you realize what your mistakes were and come out better prepared and ready to play.
