Can you blame them?<\/a>\u201d Wirfs said, via JoeBucsFan.com. \u201cYou know, we\u2019re 1-4 and haven\u2019t really given them much to cheer about.<\/p>\n\u201cSo, yeah, it sucks. It sucks when you\u2019re going damn near silent count at home. But you\u2019ve got to give [fans] something to cheer for.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Bucs are now 1-5. And the fans didn\u2019t have much to cheer for on Sunday, as the double-digit margin melted into a loss.<\/p>\n
Wirfs was asked whether the failure to close out games is physical or mental.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou know, I don\u2019t really know, to be honest,\u201d Wirfs said. \u201cWe\u2019re up by 13 and, I don\u2019t know. I don\u2019t have anything. I\u2019m not going to say anything right now. I don\u2019t know what it is. It\u2019s insanely frustrating. You know, to be up 13 at home. We haven\u2019t won a fucking home game yet. And to not be able to finish out the game is really frustrating.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Bucs were on the brink of extending their winning streak to two before it all fell apart. Now, they\u2019re all alone at the bottom of the NFC South with a 1-5 record, looking up at the 3-2 Panthers, the 2-4 Falcons, and the 2-4 Saints.<\/p>\n
Next up, the Bucs face the Panthers in Carolina before the Falcons come to town. After that, it\u2019s a Sunday night game in Chicago against the Bears.<\/p>\n
If Tampa Bay is ever going to turn it around this season, the time is now. After starting the 2025 season at 6-2, the Bucs are 3-12.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Steelers fans overwhelmed Raymond James Stadium on Sunday, boosting the road team\u2019s effort to overcome a 13-0 halftime…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":887511,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[63],"tags":[349,99],"class_list":["post-887510","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nfl","tag-nfl","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/887510","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=887510"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/887510\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/887511"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=887510"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=887510"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=887510"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
