Well said. That is exactly what I wrote. Its not that Glennon gives us the best chance to win. Its that we know what we have in Free, and he is not our future. So we need to find out what we have in Glennon.

LOL, Freeman would have given us the best chance to lose, IMHO.
A win tomorrow stops all the negative press about Tampa.
I think we will beat Arizona, but like PJ Fleck said, we need to address our offensive scheme.
September 28th, 2013 at 6:17 pm
EXACTLY!! We will know which direction to go in the off season. May create a spark on the offense as well. Who knows?!
September 28th, 2013 at 6:23 pm
Advantages to timing…..
Possible Freeman Trade
Glennon debut at home against a weak team with defensive injuries
Bye week adjustments for Glennon
Shake things up while there is still a chance

Not even sure if I should watch the beating Glennon is going to receive tomorrow.

Ok, I buy the look and see theory. But what coach will do the looking in the offseason? I see the Cards, Bills, and maybe the Eagles as wins this year. Does anybody really think that after a 7-9 season and a possible 3-13 season the Glazers are going to let this guy ruin another QB after spending a fortune on a win-now team?
Please! The guy is going to make Morris look like a Lombardi with one giant freckle. CBSSports and WalterFootball has us picking 2nd in the 2014 draft. This look and see experiment is exactly how the Frankenstein monster was created. Lol

Walter, I’ve been wondering the same thing. I think we agree on this. I respect Troy Aikman. He’s obviously not a Freeman fan & could probably break it down why, play by play. Freeman’s numbers gave this organization the ammunition it needed to justify making this move to Glennon. But the Cardinals have a lot of talent, not as weak as people want to believe, as the Bucs have talent & are not as “weak” as they might be perceived, but each team’s weaknesses don’t exactly cancel each other out. It’s all about matchups, which I give the advantage to the Cardinals, no penalties, which the Bucs have had many, no turnovers, which could be the difference. It’s surprising that Troy isn’t down on starting Glennon right now. Even Troy struggled as a rookie. IF Freeman gets traded, the Bucs will easily be the losers in that deal. Glennon is far from ready. That’s what we will find out.

Kind of like the beating the freemanite a have been taking lOL
September 28th, 2013 at 7:36 pm
Sorry but Freeman couldn’t generate any excitement or energy on the team and that is EXACTLY what a QB needs to do.
Do I believe the Bucs win tomorrow? Nope; but hey I hope I’m proven wrong.
Remember Shawn King was only a rookie and he took the team to the playoffs – even with his “small hands” (hopefully Glennon won’t let the ball ‘slip’ out when attempting to pass.
Let’s face it folks, it’s time for the defense to step it up and win a game for the team. It’s time for Dungy ball!

Great analysis Splengo, as always. Oh, and funny.

Trade Freeman to Vikings for Jared Allen who is also in the final year of his contract and clears salary cap space for salary cap strapped Vikings.
September 28th, 2013 at 8:55 pm
Freeman for Allen……………..Can play the position currently vacated by Daquan Bowers.

@barry-
Really? Have you seen our kicker, no way we get two field goals. Lol
September 28th, 2013 at 10:16 pm
Barry. Wrong website, you clearly typed in cardsfan not bucsfan…please refrain
September 29th, 2013 at 3:44 am
He wasn’t talking about 2 field goals. We will score a defensive td but our kicker misses the extra point

Support your team and stop with the loser mentality. Glennon may come in and play well, no one really knows.
