Tampa Bay's pass rush. The Bucs have just eight sacks this season, with six of them against Carolina.
Aqib is going to be working his ass off....we shall see how "clearly" things are.

Aqib has been doing it all season...so what?
He's STILL shutting down WRs even without the aide of a pass rush...what's different this week? If anything, playing against such an inexperienced QB will help Talib and he'll play even BETTER this week.
Still not very clear dude. And besides, i'm gonna tell you right now where you guys are going to get your ass in trouble, Aqib "clearly" anything or not:
The big play, 40+ yards.
Being tied for third worst in the league with Seattle, Detroit and Jacksonville in giving up 40+ yard pass plays.
I've seen the type of argument you are trying to put forth before. The Seachicken fans used to come in here blah blah blahing about their bad ass boy Earl Thomas solving their problems with giving up the big play. LMAO, how's that turned out for them? Well, they are tied with you as third suckiest in the league, still. Yeah sure he can play some ball....but when you running your ass off because your front seven sucks ass, well, you are going to get your ass burnt by anybody who has the cajones to throw that ball deep. If you don't think Troy Smith has the Cajones to do that, you have obviously stuck your head way up your ass end.
You know what dude, lets get real here (with a lil' smack thrown in)....go right the f**k and have aqib shut Crabs down...s**t...take your pick who you want him to shut down...none of it makes two s**ts to me if your still going to end up giving up the big play someplace else, which your defense is famously known to do.
See how that works? You go spewing s**t off about some meaningless stat of 46th ranked something, I go spewing some ranking that actually mean's something in this game...s**t like how you guys have some serious issues with defending the 40+ big play, no matter who the hell you are playing... 46th, 1st or 1004th ranked blah blah blah or not.
