Doug Martin Inactive Tonight; “Violation Of Team Rules”
December 18th, 2017
The headline says it all.
Joe’s wagging a finger at you, Dirk Koetter and Jason Licht. Martin never should have been on this team in 2017. All the evidence you needed was in front of you last season.
December 18th, 2017 at 7:08 pm
Wow, not shocked.
Only shocked “we don’t have $17 million lying around” for Calais Campbell?
$7 million wasted on a washed up RB.
Sad state for Bucs.

I thought Dougie was gonna have a solid year this year, didn’t agree with T-Kras and Joes take on him, I was wrong, I guess he hasn’t redeemed himself, adios.
December 18th, 2017 at 7:10 pm
cut him now–why wait–btw what specific team rule did he break?
December 18th, 2017 at 7:14 pm
And it looks like we are keeping the GM that brought Doug back this year.
December 18th, 2017 at 7:15 pm
Another great decision by management blowing up in their face!
December 18th, 2017 at 7:16 pm
Haha. for fcks sake, Martin!! See ya never
December 18th, 2017 at 7:18 pm
THANK THE MAKER!!!!!……C3PO quote in the spirit of Star Wars
December 18th, 2017 at 7:20 pm
He probably knew he wasn’t starting and acted like a bad teammate and was late to game.
Adios. Doug Martin.
Man some people can just fool yah. He looks like a nice kid. Think his taste for partying and molly turned him into an expendable overpaid baby
December 18th, 2017 at 7:20 pm
Just cut him now. He is gone after the season anyways. Why wait?
Give Barber the reps and see how he does with pass pro.
December 18th, 2017 at 7:22 pm
Never know why he wasn’t traded for a DE or a pick…. now we have someone making millions riding the pine…. and we are keeping that guy in 2018 hmmmm what is going on with us???
December 18th, 2017 at 7:26 pm
So Licht resigned him and now we have resigned Licht?? Does anyone else see what I see? Licht and Koetter are the problem.

Woopdie whoo

So they could of released him with out a penilty before the start of the season now look how stupid they are. Football is a businesses not a family or friend affair. This is the reason there horrible,poor descsion making but the front office and coaching staff. This team infuriates me to no end. We need someone to come in and hit the reset button someone who knows about football and how things are supposed to run.I have been saying this forever there is a reason Mr.Vinik and the lightning are not only winning but spending money being comparative all while selling out for 100+ games in a row. Winning constantly brings fans to the stands and pads the wallet. Glazers are just incapable of making real sports decisions. They get what they don’t pay for i’m sure the bottomline is not as lucrative as there hockey friends down the way.

Joe’s- I’ll give you credit, you nailed Martin. Question- are you going to give the rest of us credit a year from now when Winston officially earns the bust title?
December 18th, 2017 at 7:36 pm
I honestly didn’t know that decision was on Licht. I have to believe that Koetter wanted him back and said so, because if he hadn’t, Licht wouldn’t have paid the 7 mil. to a player that Koetter wouldn’t play…and start.
December 18th, 2017 at 7:37 pm
Never, ever trust a druggie. They WILL let you down.
December 18th, 2017 at 7:46 pm
We are such a crap show….
December 18th, 2017 at 7:52 pm
Bye felicia
December 18th, 2017 at 7:52 pm
A crap show that will be shown on national TV tonight no less.
December 18th, 2017 at 7:56 pm
Martin and his 7 million dollar salary brought to you by newly re-upped Jason Licht’s Out! When they were off the hook! These Amish owners stagger the imagination.
December 18th, 2017 at 8:01 pm
More of Dirk trying to cover his a trying to deflect and give himself excuses as everyone calls for his head after yet another embarrassing loss.
December 18th, 2017 at 8:07 pm
Who made up the nickname Drug Martin????
I swear it is one of the funniest things I’ve ever read on this blog.
Disclaimer : Drug addiction is no laughing matter. It has taken lives, ruined careers, torn apart families and has left strong human beings looking like a shell of their former selves.
December 18th, 2017 at 8:21 pm
Who said it was drugs
December 18th, 2017 at 8:22 pm
Anyone know the violation?
December 18th, 2017 at 8:23 pm
Bye Doug. Was rooting for you man but I just don’t see it in you any more. I will always remember you tearing up the Raiders your rookie year.
To put into perspective Martin had 1,926 yards from scrimmage his rookie year.
With 2 games left Kareem Hunt (1641), Alvin Lamar (1336), Leonard Fournette (1136).
Douggie was a beast and gave me some good memories, unfortunately he will be remembered mostly for his inconsistencies. Good luck Doug.
December 18th, 2017 at 8:52 pm
The season is over now. Doug Martin has played these fools like a piano. He’s following in the footsteps of Carl Nicks, Eric Wright, Vincent Jackson.
December 18th, 2017 at 8:59 pm
Love the hindsight. I bet a lot of posters are great at picking last weeks lottery numbers too.
December 18th, 2017 at 9:07 pm
I wish the inept front office of the Bucs had any sight at all. They gotta be as blind as a bat. They make the dumbest decisions in the NFL.
December 18th, 2017 at 9:18 pm
I was wrong also. Joe was right. Smitty is gone.
December 18th, 2017 at 10:21 pm
This is why this is a sorry ass franchise. The owners reward the idiot who re-signed Martin. Litch should have already been fired instead of extended. Its clear that the players have checked out and the coaches are clueless.
December 18th, 2017 at 10:39 pm
Im always right. Proven once again… tge gerbil was done
December 18th, 2017 at 10:53 pm
I coined the name Drug Martin.
December 18th, 2017 at 11:06 pm
The Glazers picked up Jason Licht 5th year option during the offseason. They still might fire him after the season.
December 18th, 2017 at 11:13 pm
Licht, Dirk and Druggie can all GTFO. JW too. It should be just J since he ate the W.
Fools.
December 18th, 2017 at 11:19 pm
sometimes “violating team rules” relates to hooking up with a teammate’s wife/gf
December 18th, 2017 at 11:39 pm
Joe – you called it in the beginning of the year
Honestly what a slap in the face – a team that stuck by him after he couldn’t control himself
What a POS
