Bucs Will Go 6-10
June 24th, 2009While training camp has yet to begin, some publications have made season predictions for NFL teams.
Though Joe is not a gambler (with the exception of harmless NCAA basketball pools), Joe ran across something called BetFirms.com.
This site breaks down the Bucs, and naturally states the team’s two biggest weaknesses are defense and quarterback. Well, duh.
Regardless, the site expects the Bucs to lose double-digit games.
Prediction: 4th NFC South (6-10) This division is known for teams turning around at a very fast rate, but I think its unlikely the Bucs are able to pull off the trend in 2009. The other three teams in this division are loaded with talent, and the NFC South really has a tough schedule having to play both the NFC East and AFC East this season.
Joe can’t really argue with this. Joe hopes the Bucs have a great season, but with a weakened defense that wasn’t so great the last four games of 2008, Joe is bracing himself for a long season.

Ah, those sweet, sweet orange uniforms. I hope they go with the 70’s & early 80’s burnt orange rather than the early 90’s tangerine version. The orange throw-backs are way over due. Joe, is there is any indication which game the throw-back will take place? I hope they don’t do it at the UK game.

Chris:
Rumor has it that the Packers game is when the Bucs will break out the throwbacks.

They SHOULD do the throwbacks in London – NFL football there is a joke anyway and the Bucs will be humilated by the Pats in a Tampa HOME GAME!
Hell let the Bucs were the Mann U jersey’s over there!
