Not sure how many of you have heard of @clubtrillion, but the idea was coined by former Ohio State hoops player Mark Titus. He'd come in as a walk-on and his stat line would be 1 minutes and zeroes for everything else. The perfect trillion. In football, there are games when almost every defensive player you have finishes with a long list of zeroes after tackles. It's common, and there's nothing wrong with a player having a perfect X trillion game now and then, but what you REALLY want are those havoc plays that mess up the trillion. The @Buccaneers had TWELVE PLAYERS with havoc plays yesterday. TWELVE. MORE THAN A STARTING LINEUPS WORTH. That... is awesome. The stat sheet looks more like target practice or a dart board. A dirty, messy, glorious log of havoc wreaked on the opponent. (And it doesn't even include the blocked extra point and 2-point conversion return.) That was a fun one. Let's go do it again this weekend. #WeAreTheKrewe

I’ve never seen a stadium empty out like today in Carolina I can’t say I blame them either. That was four quarters of domination by the #Bucs My first season on the sideline has been one to remember and we’re not even halfway through! #WeAreTheKrewe

Bucs’ 43 points at Carolina was the 4th most in an NFL game this year by a road team. 5th most in a game period. +30 was the largest road margin on victory in the NFL and the 2nd largest overall. Largest margin of victory over a starting QB. Total domination. #WeAreTheKrewe

Only games where Bucs passed the ball less than they did with 11 attempts today -- 10 in franchise's first win vs. Saints in 1977 and 10 in 1979 win over Packers. Mayfield's thumb only needed for handoffs most of the game today.

Tampa Bay ran the ball on 81% of it's plays vs. CAR. That's the 2nd highest single game run rate since 2016. (The highest was NE (93.6%) in that extreme wind game vs. BUF from '21.) Total outlier game from the Buccaneers today. Data: @SumerSports

Todd Bowles was the head coach for both teams in these two occurrences:
The Buccaneers are the second team in NFL history with a pass TD, rush TD, field goal, defensive TD and special teams TD/returned XP in a single quarter. They join the Jets in Week 1, 2018 (3Q vs. DET).

Keep saying: the 1-5 start was vs the 2nd best SOS in the NFL. Starting today, remaining schedule ranks 31st. Bucs had 4 TO’s at Cincinnati and still almost won. Got 4 TO’s today, and roll by 30. The bad start was bad, but not ALL bad. Big one a week from today.
The teams that have beaten the Bucs went 4-0 today, and they’re now 19-5 in games not playing the Bucs. Easier schedule ahead could help Tampa Bay.

According to StatsPerform, Zyon McCollum's return of a blocked PAT for a two-point score is the first play of that variety in Bucs franchise history.

49 rush attempts by the Bucs was their 3rd most ever… most in a game since 1998.
Teams with 40+ points and fewer than 65 pass yards since 1980 Bucs vs Panthers 2024 Lions vs Titans (Week 8)

4th most rushing yards in a game in @buccaneers franchise history
The Bucs were running all over the Panthers! 💨 81% of Tampa Bay's offensive plays were designed runs as they combined for 258 yards on 49 carries for 3 TD. The Bucs had 171 rush yards before contact according to ESPN's tracking, the most in a game this season.

Cool backstory on Baker Mayfield's new glove -- Bucs reached out to Nike, who had made a custom protective glove for Mike Trout, but that wasn't thumb-specific. That led them to the Rays, who (in the midst of pennant push) sent an equipment staffer over to Bucs facility, met with Mayfield, helped make a custom glove. They even brought over three more of them right before getting on the plane to Milwaukee. "Team Tampa Bay" is much more than just wishing each other good luck here.
