    Last week Charley said losing to Deshaun Watson would be a low moment for him as a sports fan, and then said it wasn't going to happen. It happened. So we flipped a coin to decide who got to be miserable first. Charley makes the case against Todd Bowles — 29th, 29th and 27th in pass defense, 2-9 since starting 6-2, and a scheme the rest of the league figured out four years ago. Then he ranks the eight worst bad beats in Buccaneers history, including Bo Jackson refusing to play for them, a Super

    Season two is here and we're already behind. Sean runs a game called Baby Don't Hurt Me: six draft picks so catastrophic they left permanent psychological damage. Justin Jefferson's 2 touchdowns. Brian Thomas Jr. going from WR7 to WR43. Stephen Ridley getting benched by Belichick in week one and never being heard from again.
