Tampa Bay Buccaneers @ Carolina Panthers Official Game Day Thread: Righting the Ship Edition

[Doctor]

WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON???

[Cheb]

Godwin's corner committed DPI, pushing Godwin just shy of that completion.

Saavy defense but frustrating.

Lookit dat JakeQuake.

"Tampa Bay Buccaneers head football coach John McKay (1923-2001) was asked by a reporter after a loss what he thought about the execution of the team’s offense. “I’m in favor of it (execution—ed.),” McKay replied. The joke quickly became a sports classic."

[Rocker]

Fox trolling Bucs fan with the “Same old story” chorus on the outro.


The window is closed, friends.

[BucsNBills]

The classic 3rd and 2 thirty yard bomb that results in a punt.

[The Outsider]

We need to fire Bowles after this game. Let Leftwich finish out the season as interim. Hire Raheem Morris during the off-season, youngry incoming we all come full circle.

As much as I can’t stand Turd Bowl, Leftwich really wouldn’t be an upgrade. We are fucked for the year there thanks to Arians trying to hook his boys up.

You took a post in which I suggest we sign Raheem Morris seriously?

[King Bootz]

So who gets promoted?

I don't fucking care

We're getting severely outcoached by what's remaining of Matt Rhules' fired staff

Urban Meyer did a better job last season. The possibility of downgrading is more than limited

Change for thr sake of change. Love it.

[Snake]

If they protect, no one is open. If someone gets open, the pocket is already collapsed.

[LFAHFN22]

Is Vita Vea still on the team?

He is. And we pair him on third down with Nacho.

I don't know why we got away from playing Vea between the B-gaps but we have. Putting a 350-lb man on the edge or on huge looping stunts ain't too smart imo.

I just wanted to clarify that I was asking sarcastically.

Godwin's corner committed DPI, pushing Godwin just shy of that completion.

I think it was more of a hold, he definitely got a hand full of jersey and you could see the yank.

[Hammy]

If it’s in their hands they drop it.

Wrong

Change for the sake of improvement

[Buc2]

Wonder when people here start holding players accountable......Guessing never?

Right. Plays are there but the execution isn’t.

[Hammy]

Winfield sighting

[Rocker]

AWJ one of the few bright spots this season.

Well, I wouldn't quite say that a change in the organization would be a change for the sake of it. We are consistently playing below our talent level. We sent what, 8 Bucs to the Pro Bowl last year, and we can't even keep pace with an interim staff who just traded their two best offensive players.

[Bucsfan83]

F, is Winfield concussed?

[Hammy]

He looked a little wobbly getting up..

[Onthebrink]

collar bone?

So who makes it better??

[The Outsider]

Rebuild time baby.

[wesmon]

If they fire Bowles who the hell do they elevate to head coach? Not Leftwich

[Hammy]

Ok…nice stop D

[King Bootz]

Oh we know where this is going....Probably the last we've seen of AWJ today

[Bucsfan83]

We should look into that Offensive coach the chiefs have, Beilemy?

[IronDog]

Crimony, our only functional player gets injured. Damnit AWJ

Can we hire whoever is coaching the Panthers today?

[Hammy]

Darden…nice

[Doctor]

Can someone go get Arians a red pen please

[Buc2]

Here comes a 80 yard punt.

[King Bootz]

Doubt we can hire from another organization if we're leaving our coaches I'm Charlotte after the game...

[Central_Buc]

Good play D White

Truthfully I don't know. While the knee-jerk reaction when you see crappy football like this is to fire coaches, I don't think that would fundamentally change what we see on the field. We need on-field accountability. Coaching can help with that, benching people can help. But we need our veterans to hold their teammates accountable. And it isn't helping that our veterans are making the lion's share of fuckups.

[The Outsider]

Trading Tom to the Lions for a 7th would be the ultimate in on-field accountability technology.

You don't fire during season, unless it's horribly horribly, and I mean horrifically bad. It's also not the Glazier's style. However, it doesn't mean we can't look and take guesses for who to interview in the off season. I'm pulling for Beilemy right now.
