They didn't look too good BEFORE that, Ghost.
Clayton and Williams were ROY worthy, that is true -- but Clayton has mostly disappeared from the Buccaneer offense and Williams can't get the touches now. You'd have thought that Jon Gruden would dump the load on Cadilliac and you know what? Instead he's dumped the load on a rookie QB that he's fixated on. Throw-throw-throw with a rookie QB (and we ain't talking a Manning, Rivers, Brees type guy to begin with). THAT is poor play calling as well as poor coaching.
And yeah, the Bucs might have arced without the Ring but remember this: The team nucleus went beyond what was on the field.
