Scott Reynolds of the Pewter Report suggests that if Bucs quarterback Jeff Garcia doesn't start taking shots downfield, specifically at the end zone, Chucky may bench him for Luke McCown.

Interesting little tidbit Joe heard while coming home from work.

Joe was listing to the Buccaneer Blitz heard on WDAE-AM 620 with Scott Reynolds of the Pewter Report and WDAE’s Steve Duemig. Reynolds hinted that there may be (another) quarterback change in the near future if the Bucs offense repeats this week in Kansas City that dreadful performance they turned in at Dallas last week.

Apparently talking to various players and Chucky, Reynolds claims Chucky was calling for passes to the end zone against Dallas but Bucs quarterback Jeff Garcia was reluctant to throw there, instead checking down. Reynolds isn’t sure why Garcia wouldn’t try a shot at the end zone but suspected that Garcia was paranoid of throwing a pick.

This week in practice coaches have told Garcia (and also, God forbid, Son of Bob) that they really should be throwing to allow the receivers to make a play deep, not just throw to them when they are wide open short. In fact Reynolds claims allowing receivers to make a play when they have one-on-one coverage was emphasized this week to Garcia and (God forbid) Son of Bob.

Antonio Bryant’s touchdown pass in the first quarter against Seattle was an example of letting the receivers make a play.

Reynolds went on to say that if Garcia is benched again he’s done. If (God forbid) Son of Bob starts again and throws three picks like he is wont to do, he’s done.

Chucky will then turn to Luke McCown.

Reynolds seemed serious.
