“Dunderhead” To Win Awful NFL Title
January 1st, 2010As you are reading this post, Joe is awash in Caybrew and grilled chicken enjoyed at the Outback Bowl. Joe needed this escape partially due to the following:
Dunderhead Trueblood will win a not-so-coveted NFL title tomorrow, so writes Vacation Man of BSPN.com.
Unless somebody has a really bad — and I’m talking absolutely horrible — game this weekend, Tampa Bay offensive tackle Jeremy Trueblood is going to run away with the unflattering distinction of being the league leader in false-start penalties.
Trueblood already has 10. No one else is even close. Levi Brown, Ryan Diem and Vernon Davis are tied for second place with seven false-start penalties. Carolina’s Jeff Otah had six before he was placed on injured reserve. Carolina tight end Jeff King and Tampa Bay tackle Donald Penn have been called for four false starts. No one else in the NFC South has been called with more than three false starts.
This just drives Joe absolutely wild. Trueblood is not a dumb guy at all… off the field. On the field he has his head up his rear end so far he sees the world in brown tint.
There is nothing more simple in football than knowing the snap count. And he can’t seem to pull that off.
A losing team like the Bucs cannot afford moronic plays like that, especially from a talented veteran like Dunderhead.

Do you know the contract status of Trueblood? I wouldn’t mind seeing him in another uniform next year.

Another shining example of oustanding coaching. Whether it be to teach him or bench him.

Hey who are YOU calling dunderhead?
If you had done a little research you wouldn’t found out that these false starts are not my fault. Well yeah I’m going offsides but that’s because I’m deaf in my left ear.
It started back in training camp. I got into it with Aquib Talib and the next thing I knew I woke up one morning with a pen sticking out of my ear. The dude is an animal.
Then to top it off josh Freeman speaks so softly that i can’t hear crap out there.

Somebody should let Vacation Man know the Bucs don’t play tomorrow…

or let Joe know that too many Caybrews cause brain damage, where you forget what day of the week it is 🙂

I thought we got rid of Kenyatta Walker….

He’s a FA after this season Fred. I’m not sure if he’s restricted or not. Either way I don’t want to see the Bucs offer him a contract. Penn needs to get extended though.

Trueblood is a keeper…..
trust me there have been many many OL’s that banked a Buc check
that could not beat him in a high school
1vs1 drill

To you Duderhead haters ask yourself this:
Look at the difference in the O-Line when Zuttah played for Sears this year.
Hopefully Sears comes back. If you let/get rid of Trueblood do you want Zuttah playing at RT next season?
The whole off sides issue can be resolved which good coaching and technique.

Joe here,
Mr. Lucky – Of note, Zuttah said recently on the radio that for him playing left guard is opposite to his instincts with his hands and he’s really a right-side only player but has started to get into a groove on the left side. He might be a good option over there at right tackle, if they did, in fact, move on from Trueblood. Just wanted to throw that Zuttah comment out there.

The hearing thing definitely bears investigation, or maybe its hard to hear with one’s head up the arse. He should be re-signed and kept for a back up RT. Maybe a little time on the pine might help his penalty problems. What about Fulton at RT? I know he is on IR, but I thought that was why they drafted him.

Trueblood looks like a Beluga Whale with that forehead. I keep waiting for an Alien to pop out of it. If anyone needs to visit the Hair Club for Men, it’s him. What a muscle head.
