Grading The Bucs
November 5th, 2014
Sometimes, Joe gets a surprise in the wee hours of the morning while working on this here corner of the interwebs. No, it’s not Rachel Watson ringing Joe’s doorbell looking for warmth and consoling.
But Colleen Wolfe is a surprise. While doing research on the Bucs, Joe came across this lass grading Tampa Bay after their eighth game of the season along with someone named Eliot Harrison.
In short, the duo referred to benched starting quarterback Mike Glennon as “a mixed bag,” seemed to like the Bucs defense, and you may not want to hear what they had to say about third-down efficiency.
At worst, you can gawk at Ms. Wolfe.

Grading the Bucs? Your record is your grade!!
B Parcells: “You are what your record says you are…….”

Good thing there are only 32 teams…..

1 – 7 only means 1 thing F
They get another F for FA
Yet another F for not trading cement shoes Glennon during last draft when for some unknown reason a team was willing to take his sorry arse. Now he has zero value

We’re worse than our record says, we have a HC who has no idea what he’s doing, pick a guy and stick with him, you’re 1-7, it’s not going to get any better being 2-7 or 1-8 it doesn’t matter at this level…
Lovie has proven his ineptitude time and time again, it’s time to take a look at the big picture, do you believe Lovie Smith can turn this team around given another season. In my opinion, no, he has no idea how to do what he’s been asked to do. So the simple answer is to find someone who you think can get the job done…
Lovie his staff and the GM all must go..admit the mistake, take your financial lumps and move on, but you cannot keep Lovie if you don’t believe he is capable of doing what he was hired to do…which he has proven he isn’t.

I am incredibly disappointed in the coaches and players this season. That being said, there really is no choice but to stick with Lovie and rebuild this team. Since 2008, we have had 4 head coaches, each one with their guys and with completely different philosophies. You can’t just keep changing regimes and philosophies every 2 years.
Like it or not, Lovie has to be our guy and we are going to have to trust him. We need to find an offensive coordinator, draft a quarterback, revamp the roster and find a new special teams coach. Unfortunately it is going to take some time, but we have to build something lasting. it’s just going to take a lot longer than we hoped.

Man seeing that video made me even more pissed off at the Special Teams. 2 FGs, really? Glennon had some nice passes in there.

You can’t stop changing until you find one that’s at least competent. What has Lovie done to generate any confidence in him?
Schiano was better, Raheem too.
Gruden was the most competent and the Glazers fired him too.
No, it’s all on the Glazer’s to hire a competent FO and HC. They have steadfastly refused to bring in a President of Football Operations. Not really good when you are absentee owners with very little football acumen.
Yucks.

Their grade is clearly an F, a very low F….
Lovie is the worst of the HC hired this year and the Bucs (and fans) are paying the price for this misfortune…. I don’t know who is out there that can come in and clean up this mess Lovie has created but as long as Lovie is their the bigger the mess for the next guy to deal with….
I will finally agree, even Raheem was better than Lovie!

He did, he picked McCown, now he’s healthy, and he’s going back to him.

We are still only a few games out of first place in our division…
I give Lovie an A for keeping us in the division race…
I think you all know what the “A” stands for…

@Tye
Please have someone smarter than you review your posts before you submit it next time… Just trying to help you out…
Oh, and if you think everything you just posted was “smart” and made sense then do me a favor and stand in front of a mirror and b!tchslap the sh!t out of yourself for being an embarrassment to NOT ONLY this fan base, but to the human race in general…

Grading the Bucs, now that is a difficult job. I wonder how much it pays?

Joe, what is your point? Why take a poll regarding the public’s confidence in Lovie? Are you trying to show that confidence is down so he needs to be booted? The only thing this poll does is create a forum for a bunch of Negative Nancy’s. At times, I feel your the Anti-BucFan slamming player and coach one after another.
Actually, the vote is the vote. Joe doesn’t control, other than you can’t vote more than once from the same IP address. Fans can watch Lovie’s confidence rise and fall. The Negative Nancys, by the way, need no special place to come out of the woodwork. –Joe
