“Honeymoon Period Is Over With”
September 17th, 2014
Ex-players sense pressure on Lovie
“Take some chances,” Lovie Smith.
Boomer Esiason and the CBS crew, which now carries Thursday Night Football, was busy talking about tomorrow night’s big Bucs-Falcons game in Atlanta.
Tony Gonzalez, Bart Scott, Bill Cowher, Esiason and more gathered around to chat about the game. Joe’s got the video below.
Gonzalez and Scott, among other takes, insist the Bucs season is completely flushed with a loss tomorrow. Scott also says Lovie’s “honeymoon period is over with” already.
September 17th, 2014 at 11:09 am
There is no denying it.
Lovie Smith is a Down Grade over Schanio.
I will take Toes on the Line over No Swearing any day.
September 17th, 2014 at 11:13 am
You’re such an idiot. Lost 2 games and he’s worse than Schiano?! Talk to me when we are 0-8.
September 17th, 2014 at 11:18 am
Okay Hawaiian. Let’s see how you feel in a couple more weeks.
September 17th, 2014 at 11:19 am
Funny, all the Glennon and Schiano haters got their wish. A new coach and a new QB. But we’re supposed to now look the other way for a while, cuz “it takes time” and we need to be “patient”, which ironically, is something those same people weren’t willing to give Glennon and Schiano.
September 17th, 2014 at 11:20 am
If Lovie can’t best 4-12 this year then we can talk about him vs Schiano. Until then just STFU.
September 17th, 2014 at 11:20 am
Players like to win. Hard ass Schiano, soft ass Raheem, or mostly soft Lovie, doesn’t matter. So of course Lovie’s “honeymoon” is over when you lose to two backups. I’m wiling to let this season be a wash but there needs to be significant improvement next year or based of the standard set since Gruden, Lovie will be unemployed.
September 17th, 2014 at 11:21 am
Schiano did have 7 wins his first season after taking over a rotten roster from the Morris era. Freeman, pre meltdown, looks a lot better now with McCown bumbling around back there behind center.

“If Lovie can’t best 4-12 this year then we can talk about him vs Schiano. Until then just STFU.”
On the contrary Schiano won SEVEN games in first season. That’s right 7 games is Lovie’s magic number.
Do you think he will get there? No way in hell!
September 17th, 2014 at 11:23 am
Lovie brings in a veteran QB because he didn’t want to take a chance developing Glennon. (still does not).
Yet he won’t let McCown throw with first and goal? Won’t try and kick a field goal before the half? Hell, he won’t even let McCown throw downfield to our big recievers. Then insists on starting Mike Jenkins and Leonard Johnson?
The jury has already rendered the verdict. Sunk season.
September 17th, 2014 at 11:24 am
Schiano (college coach from Rutgers) a rookie NFL head coach with hardly any Pro football experience won 7 games in his first season.
September 17th, 2014 at 11:28 am
Lovie had time to handpick his coordinators. Schiano didn’t.
Lovie wasn’t stuck with Freeman. Schiano was.
Lovie picked his own QB, who cant outplay Glennon either.
Not that any of this matters… we still suck.
September 17th, 2014 at 11:32 am
If we hadn’t been such losers in previous years Lovie would get longer than 2 games. But the state of the franchise is so bad, so putrid with on the field success (15-35 over the last 3+ seasons qualifies as putrid) that it looks like 2 games is all he gets. That’s not Lovie’s fault, but he was wrong to encourage fans to believe this was not a rebuilding project. Replacing half your roster certainly is a rebuilding project. Unlike Kansas City in 2013 though, we’re not going 10-6 this season.
I’m sticking to 6-10. I believe they may come out of this stretch of games 0-5, but they’ll start picking it up in the second half of the season. I posted that before the season started, and I’m sticking to it.
It’s going to get darker and uglier before some improvement happens. Gents, put on your beer goggles.
September 17th, 2014 at 11:34 am
And yes, they’re going to lose Thursday. If you get pissed watching them lose, you may want to skip the game.
September 17th, 2014 at 11:34 am
Is anyone here suggesting that Lovie can do any wrong?…cuz we fight right now!!!
September 17th, 2014 at 11:35 am
You guys are idiots 7 games and schiano is a god around here. Then lost 10 games in a row then another 8 who the fudge cares!!?!??! He sucked. What’s he doing now hmm? Who is he coaching again??? What rumors came up of teams he was going to coach???? O that’s right. Z E R O!!!
Hes won one more game then raheem Morris in one year took him two year just to surpass his best year by one game!! That’s with a ton of free agents and money to spend which raheem never got.
Geez we have some real “special” people as bucs fans.
September 17th, 2014 at 11:36 am
Tony Gonzales wouldn’t have caught any passes from McCown or Glennon or anybody else in week 1 with the hodge podge offense line and the plays called that week and all the other chaos.
September 17th, 2014 at 11:36 am
The players may like playing for Lovie Smith better. But the fans want wins.
Lovie Smith is outdated and Old with his way of coaching.
Our Next win may come against the Vikings. And that’s it.
And then Lovie will start with the BS excuses…..
1. We had a lot of work to do when we came into the season.
2. We had 50% new Players
3. We had a new QB with a New System It takes time
4. We had too many unexpected injuries too soon.
5. This is a game of inches and one play can make or break you. We should be 9-7 this year if it wasn’t for 9 plays this season.
6. Evidently Back Up QB’s are pretty good in the NFL.
September 17th, 2014 at 11:38 am
Louis Friend …do me a favor. Go over the schedule again and come back in here and post those 6 wins and what the teams are.
Just curious.
September 17th, 2014 at 11:38 am
This the main problem on O.
Lovie: “Our identity is being balanced.”
Arroyo: “We don’t know what our identity is yet.”
McCown: “Trying to figure out what our identity is going to be.”
September 17th, 2014 at 11:42 am
Why would anyone coach if they are being paid $3 million for the next 3 years not to? Gruden did the same thing. The only person “special” is the one dumb enough not to understand it’s better to make $3 million to not work, than to actually earn it by having to babysit 53 cry-babies.
September 17th, 2014 at 11:45 am
It’s a sad, sad state of affairs when 7 wins is considered the glory days.

“You guys are idiots 7 games and schiano is a god around here.”
No one overexagerated using the word god like you did. Not even close.
You are an idiot for even thinking that was the intention. In order for Lovie Smith to say he has this team going in the right direction. He better best Schiano’s 7 games in his FIRST season as NFL head coach. You know the guy that didn’t have a clue. That’s the point.
No one stated that Schiano is some sort of god. BUT many suggested Lovie would turn this team around fast and not just on JBF either. Nationally.
Still 7 games should be the magic number. The way it looks now 3 games is the likely number. So YES the team got worse with Lovie if that holds up. Hell one could say with all the new players that was supposed to upgrade this team. 6 wins should be unacceptable.
“We don’t expect our fans to be patient” – Jason Licht
( as in that’s why we are bringing in all these new players or did you forget?)
September 17th, 2014 at 11:49 am
Please Lovie Smith has been to the SUPERBOWL people. Schiano only dreamed of Superbowls that never happened. Im in shock there are people lamenting the loss of Schiano. Really??? I mean he was defintely better than Raheem but thats saying basically nothing.
September 17th, 2014 at 11:49 am
I never cared for Boomer Esiason. Something about him grates on me.
However, he does make me wonder what would happen if the Bucs just cut lose on offense and didn’t care about the consequences.
I disagree that the honeymoon is over. I think Lovie can take plenty of chances this year.
Time to get wild!!!!
September 17th, 2014 at 11:49 am
If they lose this game they lose the fan base. Not all of them but enough to make a dent in revenue. 10-20k fans in the stadium won’t cut it. Tampa may just lost all their sports teams, at least 2 out of 3.
Lovie the 2000’s called, they want their CDs and flip phones back. Oh, and Godzilla left a message said yes, you can borrow this balls for Thursday night.
September 17th, 2014 at 11:50 am
It’s a sad state of affairs when Lovie Smith (over 15 years of NFL experience) is going to have a worse record than Greg “Rutgers” Schiano in his first season as Buc’s coach. Surely this means Lovie is a better coach to some people. SMH
September 17th, 2014 at 11:52 am
And nobody was saying fire Schiano after his first season. But when you go 4-12, lose the players, create embarrassing drama after embarrassing drama, then you deserve to go. Lovie is 2 games in, teaching an entirely different system. It’s way too early to even think about firing him. In fact, it’s stupid. Let it play out, because as bad as things look now, it’s a long way from being how bad it was with Schiano. It’s nice that you’ve managed to block that out of your memories, but I haven’t.
September 17th, 2014 at 11:54 am
Nick2…no one is complaining about the loss of Schiano. What we are saying is the team is going backwards.
Damn this fan base thick. They read things how they want to read them regardless of how it was put down or laid out for them. It has to be a Florida schooling thing or something.
September 17th, 2014 at 11:54 am
Yea you let me know the next place that hires schiano Maybe usf will since they suck or maybe a school like cal poly tech no one wants that bum! Hell bellichick didn’t even want him to coach his lbs.
All the while raheem got a job after getting fired that year hmmm…
September 17th, 2014 at 11:54 am
We played 2 really physical defenses. We never match up good with those types of teams, regardless who is the coach. You know why? Because we’ve yet to find a franchise qb. We won’t play any tougher teams up front this year.
September 17th, 2014 at 11:55 am
Week 1 the offensive line was complete crap, McCown freaked and the play calling sucked.
Week 2 the offensive line looked pretty darn good considering the short amount of time they have been able to improve in. McCown played better and the play calling still sucked.
Weeks 1 and two the defense is playing average at best with injuries everywhere.
If/When Jeff Tedford is calling the plays directly and Lovie Smith get’s his damn nose out of the play calling/offensive game plan things will be better….at least they should be. This has not been Tedfords play calling. Maybe his offense but not his brain calling the plays. It must be his chess board for it to function the way he intended it too. A lot has gone wrong. I do blame Lovie for the loss on Sunday before anyone else. When they walked into the locker room with three timeouts in the first half he waived the white flag.
I am not optimistic about us winning tomorrow night, not if the offensive philosophy is not changed. Take shots and let your playmakers make plays. If not then why are they here…to be a diversion? This offense is playing the opposite of how I imagined it would. The team has made improvements through the first two weeks, I just think that they are improvements that many of us thought would not need to be made. If Lovie wants to put a win on the board he has to take some chances. Play aggressive on offense. If they play the same safe offensive I will put $1000.00 on Atlanta bulldozing us. Wake up Lovie I thought you saw how the NFL has transformed while sitting in your basement with Tedford last year. Thats what you said…..so where is this offense?????? HELLO????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
September 17th, 2014 at 11:56 am
I don’t want Lovie going anywhere. I just don’t believe him anymore.
and YES Schiano’s team last year would beat Lovie’s team this year. IMO.
September 17th, 2014 at 11:57 am
I think most of us are smart enough to know that this year is definitely a rebuilding year. You don’t replace half the roster, in stall a new offense, install a new defense, all new coaches, etc., and expect things to work right away.
I have been disgusted and embarrased by the last 2 games. But the day after each game I realize that this is a rebuilding season, despite the BS we were fed by L&L. Shame on them for telling us that we would win now and we weren’t rebuilding, That was a lie.
Derrick Brook warned fans that it would talk time for the defense to figure it out. Lovie has a losing record his first year in Chicago. Dungy had a losing record his first year in TB. We fans should not have believed the hype that this defense would be top 10 coming out of the gate.
I do think the defense will improve as the season goes on (if we can stop losing so many starters every game). The real question is when will Tedford be back calling plays, and will his return help stop the ridiculous conservative offense we’ve seen? The offense needs to open it up, or we have no chance of winning a game until maybe Minnesota. Sit tight Bucs fans, this first half of the season is going to be rough.
September 17th, 2014 at 11:57 am
Lovie needs to step away from the offense.play calling was offensive last week. defense needs plenty of attention,because teams that go for first downs and touchdowns win consistently in this league.
September 17th, 2014 at 11:58 am
I’m going to let the idiots proclaiming Lovie can’t coach after two games continue this debate for themselves, because they are helpless. I’ve said he is responsible for the loss again the Rams. Howevee, even Bill Bellicheat has cost his team games. It’s not good, but it does happen. Well see if he is like Schiano and he refuses to adapt. Only time will tell.
September 17th, 2014 at 11:58 am
From what I’m seeing from the D. Schiano’s D was better too. I’m not saying it will stay that way. I’m confident that the D will get much much better. But currently to me Schiano’s D was better and that’s saying nothing at all. That’s actually pathetic to be saying that.
September 17th, 2014 at 11:59 am
Lovie is starting out the same way Ron Rivera did in Carolina. Too conservative on offense and not being able to win because of it. Hopefully after a string of losses he will also respond the way Rivera did and be more aggressive on offense. He earned the nickname Riverboat Ron after that. I’m hoping we can start calling our coach Lucky Lovie, or maybe Long Shot Lovie when he starts doing the same thing.
September 17th, 2014 at 11:59 am
“Take chances” – like passing on 3rd and 7 OR using your timeouts\2min drill before half?
September 17th, 2014 at 11:59 am
We won’t play any tougher teams up front this year.
________________________
We probably won’t play against any 3rd string QB’s the rest of this year either. Matter of fact, we probably won’t face two worse QB’s than we played in the first two weeks.
September 17th, 2014 at 12:00 pm
“I mean he was defintely better than Raheem but thats saying basically nothing.”
Last I checked Morris brought is the last winning season with pre-meltdown Freeman and no FAs. 10 win season in fact.
Expectations are high with Lovie for good reason. Let’s not get too comfortable hiding behind excuses. This is the NFL and he has no excuse.
September 17th, 2014 at 12:02 pm
The fact that we are comparing Lovie to Schiano is a disgrace!
Yes the honeymoon is over but Lovie isn’t leaving anytime soon.
I have no idea what direction this team is going in.
September 17th, 2014 at 12:02 pm

Didn’t we have the their best run defense last year? Just sayin’

September 17th, 2014 at 12:05 pm
OMG DallasBuc did you just defend Raheem??????? Are you kidding me???
WOW the most embarrassing time to be a Buc fan in many many years was under his watch. Man you better check yourself on that one. I am as upset as anyone but to me the problem was we never even attempt to get a franchise qb. The only one we did try with was handpicked by Raheem and we know what happened with that train wreck.
September 17th, 2014 at 12:07 pm
0-2 really should be no big deal to us Buc fans. It’s not like we are not used to losing. That’s why Lovie gets all the patience he needs in my book for the first 2-3 years.
But I won’t silenced by my dissatisfaction or by what I’m seeing put out on the field.
September 17th, 2014 at 12:08 pm
“How bad it was with Schiano” is a ridiculous statement considering the team quit 6 games into Raheem’s last year. Things might not have been great with Schiano, but the Raheem era was the worst period in modern Bucs history. Remember 42-0 before halftime against Atlanta? Or losing 41-14 to Jacksonville? Schiano was like Lombardi compared to that.
September 17th, 2014 at 12:08 pm
Food for thought. Carolina was 1-3 last year by week 5. (Week4 bye)
Now I know we don’t have a passing game or a consistent running game or a top 5 defense BUT I guess anything can happen.
Man you really gotta dig deep to try and stay positive with this team.
September 17th, 2014 at 12:11 pm
More food for thought. That Saints are 0-2 and lost to Cleveland.
September 17th, 2014 at 12:12 pm
Lovie will be here 4 years no matter what happens. He could go 4-12 all four seasons and he will remain here nonetheless. Why? Because the Glazers are going to try the “stability” route with this hire and won’t pull the trigger before 4 years are up.
The point is this: no matter how much screaming the fans do about “honeymoon, blah, blah, blah” Lovie is going nowhere anytime soon. So pop a Midol, pull your panties out of your snatch and sit back and relax. Enjoy the four-year show because that’s what you’ve got coming.

“Lovie is starting out the same way Ron Rivera did in Carolina. Too conservative on offense and not being able to win because of it. Hopefully after a string of losses he will also respond the way Rivera did and be more aggressive on offense.”
Lovie already did that with Chicago. I was hoping Lovie would have learned from that then and not now!
September 17th, 2014 at 12:12 pm
When Lovie starts winning football games I will stop pointing out that he is losing football games!

I think that the Falcons may be overconfident going into this game watching the Bucs last 2 weeks of film. Matty Ice might make some bad decisions and if the Bucs can capitalize on them then there could be an upset.
The Bucs offense will be fine and score points. It is up to the Buc’s defense to win this game.

September 17th, 2014 at 12:35 pm
Scott also says Lovie’s “honeymoon period is over with” already
Does this mean as a head coach there some grace period of time when it’s OK to lose games on Sunday? The pressure should have been on the day he walked into this building wearing that buc polo, makes it feel like it was pointless to do a first 100 days piece as if he’s presidential only to have his losses be compared to the coach he replaced. With the players and organization no they are still growing but the honeymoon is over and all the fans love the bucs, can’t be called anything but a fan if you say through last week’s game

Umm, if they go 4-12, 4-12, and Lovie isn’t fired, you can expect around 30,000 fans a game and talk of moving to LA. Glazers are not that stupid, they will lose most of what’s left in an already fragile fan base.
September 17th, 2014 at 12:37 pm
Said it when LS was hired. We hAve so many holes on the team that it is going take 2-3 great drafts to come out of where we are now. That way guys can grow into the systems etc. 6-10 this year next year 8-8 then 11-4. Sorry if the truth hurts
September 17th, 2014 at 12:47 pm
Lovie inherited a very bad football team. The talent evaluation was horrible for the last 4 yrs. It is going to take years to fix this this organization and build it right. The Bucs will be a better team as the year progresses.
September 17th, 2014 at 12:48 pm
OK great. So Lovie gets 3 years by running Monty’s antiquated defense and the Dungyball offense?
September 17th, 2014 at 12:53 pm
Destinjohnny
Offenses are torching us for yards not points. Were not getting perdue on the quarterback but at the same time they don’t have to hold the ball very long. I mean the corners are nowhere near the receiver when they catch the ball, at this point I’d rather see some jersey grabbing some kind of penalty to show that someone is actually guarding a wideout. Even without pressure the corners could make the d line better…. Coverage sacks. Mark Barron, Dashon Goldson, Mason Foster can’t play center field where all the completions are, fix that and you fix the defense
September 17th, 2014 at 12:59 pm
Everyone seems to be killing Smith right now. Smith has the best record of any of the coaches available. Schiano coaching style is more suited to high school or D2 football. Raheem was given the keys before he was ready to drive. This organization needs to stick with Smith for at least 3 yrs.
September 17th, 2014 at 1:08 pm
With our talent level, injuries, play calling etc. the only games we have a chance at winning this year is when we are at home against Green bay and New Orleans (provided they have nothing to play for and rest their starters) and maybe the Detroit and Minnesota games. From what I have seen thus far (Play calling etc) 3-13 maybe 2-14.
This breaks my heart as I love the Bucs, but when I see a run called in the redzone (Rams 9 yard line) 3rdand 7, how can one have any hope?
When I see our starters dropping like flies I question the strength and conditioning coach / program for the Bucs.
This all adds up to 3-13 or 2-14. But I do believe in Bobby Rainey and Anthony Collins, they have made a beleiver out of me.

The smart move would have been to let Schiano develop.

What prom-queen, media sh*t-head was behind that?

September 17th, 2014 at 1:27 pm
Unfortunately for us Buc fans ,we are getting exactly what the Glazers hired. A head coach who is going to run first, not take any chances and try to win with defense. Not exactly exciting.
Until the defense can step up an play the way they are expected to play, the Bucs will continue to loose.
As a long time Buc fan of close to 30 years, I was hoping the Glazers would have done what ever it took to get Chip Kelly here. I’m pretty sure if that was a hire for ManU it would have gotten done. Kevin Sumlin would have been a great hire, but the G-boys when the safe rout and hired a retread.
So don’t expect to see anything too exciting for the foreseeable future.
September 17th, 2014 at 1:39 pm
Here’s what we are going to do:
Establish the run, dink and dunk, down the field. The philosophy is to control the clock, time of possession, and keep Matt Ryan and company of the field. If successful, we must cap off drives with scores. Atlanta’s defence is nothing like what we witnessed in the first two weeks, so hopefully we will have some success. Toward the end of the game, their defence will be tired, and easier to score on, in the fourth quarter, if we are behind.
We would not win a shootout contest against The Falcons, especially with our injury laden defense.
September 17th, 2014 at 2:21 pm
Lovie is going to lose the team ASAP when bucs players start realizing and questioning why we are not going all out for a win and settling on FGs and we have 3 wrs over 6-5 that can catch a fade, a QB who allegedly can throw a fade…3rd and 7 again will lose the lockeroom and make the bucs 2-14 HELLO LEEMAN and that other BS culverhouse 1 year coach williamson 1-15

@ CC
Exceptionally intelligent post, bro!
I concur.
I was thinking about the Chip Kelly debacle too.
Glazer-fearing media types would have you believe
that Kelly balked at Freeman (which is probably true)
but I think his real reason for the alter-snub was that he
saw the G-boys operation for exactly what it is.
Chip is very very smart (as evidenced by his NFL success).
He figured out instantly that this was not the ideal place to win.
Lol, you’re exactly right: If this was precious Man U Chip
would be our head coach, Zuttah, Joseph, Bennet and Revis
would still be here and we would be a contended year in and
year out.

Funny how people forget Dungy went 0-5 first year. 2 losses and they are done with the team. Bandwagon!

fu*k dungy, don’t forget we had a damn good defensive coordinator who designed that d, his name was monte kiffen, so lets not give tony al the credit for that bad ass defense, but we can give him credit for there constant lame ass offense he liked to run and now we get his understudy, lovie stoneface smith. mr hier apparent, give me a break, you seen his lame ass calls and that goofy blank stare of bewilderment he is always wearing. well L&L said this aint no rebuild because they are built to win NOW. with the HOF MCclown , they can.t find their ass with two hands and a flashlight. sick of the SOS and yes the honeymoon, just like the season is over! can,t stop a 3rd string QB watch what Atlanta does.

Dungy hired Kiffin to run the type of defense he wanted.
