Buccaneers fans want Grizzard fired by sundown after watching two passes from the three-yard line ice the game.
The emotional rollercoaster
Fan misery across the game window. Up is worse.
What happened
K.Williams housed a 72-yard catch-and-run in the first quarter, T.Henderson ripped off a 55-yard touchdown in the third, and M.Hollins still got loose for 54 down to the TB 8 — and somehow the defense kept this within a score. The grievance on the other side is Josh Grizzard's playcalling, immortalized by a B.Mayfield checkdown to R.White losing three yards inside two minutes. When the offense can't convert the stops the defense fought for, the season's margin disappears.
What fans said
“take a fucking bow, Josh Grizzard”

“Blame the defense if you want. But they fought and fought and made stops only for Josh Grizzard to call bubble screens on 3rd and 10.”

“A few bad offensive calls don’t make up for letting in a 72 yd passing touchdown, 55yd and 69yd rushing touchdown… pretty embarrassing”

“1-3 against anybody worth a damn. Pretenders destined for nothing further than wildcard weekend.”
