A Win Today Changes Everything

Can the Tampa Bay Buccaneers continue their roll and knock off the division rival Carolina Panthers today? If they do, does Raymond James Stadium sell out next weekend when Pittsburgh comes to town?

I think yes on both counts.

A 2-0 Bucs team would sure surprise a lot of people (like Peter King of Sports Illustrated that picked us to win 2 games all season) but more importantly it would spark that flame that Tampa fans seem to need to get their butts into seats.

A win validates this young club, it gives credence too the plan put in place by GM Mark Dominik and Coach Raheem Morris. It builds confidence in a young club that desperately needed swagger last season. But best of all, It gives hope to the whole Tampa Bay region.

So, what do you think, SBNation? Me? I'm the optimist. Ill take the Bucs 21-17.
