Bucs Sign A Mike McCarthy Quarterback
January 3rd, 2019A conspiracy theorist would have fun with this one.
Our beloved Tampa Bay Buccaneers announced today the signing of five players to futures contracts, one of them is former Packers QB Joe Callahan.
Callahan played Division-III ball for Wesley College in Delaware and entered the NFL with Green Bay in 2016. He actually spent time that season on the Packers’ active roster, as well as with the Cleveland Browns and the New Orleans Saints. He re-joined Green Bay in 2017, serving on the Packers’ practice squad before appearing in one game. Callahan spent time during the 2018 offseason with Green Bay and Philadelphia.
Of course, fired-a-month-ago Packers coach Mike McCarthy is a hot candidate to become a head coach somewhere in 2019. Is it remotely possible the Bucs pulled in Callahan as a tiny way to help lure McCarthy?
Defensive end Hunter Dimick, punter Hayden Hunt, linebacker Corey Nelson and long snapper Zach Triner were the other four signed to futures contracts. Google is your friend if you want to know more about them.

I hope not Joe… pretty lame
For the record I vote no on Mike
January 3rd, 2019 at 3:31 pm
That’s reaching a bit…
January 3rd, 2019 at 3:31 pm
I second that “NO” vote to McCarthy
January 3rd, 2019 at 3:32 pm
No
January 3rd, 2019 at 3:34 pm
Signing some camp meat early
January 3rd, 2019 at 3:34 pm
No on McCarthy.
January 3rd, 2019 at 3:35 pm
Ha ha ha ha………………nice one Joe

SINKER!!!!!!

I don’t believe it has anything to do with McCarthy.
But I would take McCarthy in a heartbeat.
January 3rd, 2019 at 3:37 pm
packers, new orleans, philly….pretty darn good tudoring with no chance to start
I like who he’s been listening to…..start him!
January 3rd, 2019 at 3:38 pm
NO!!! that would be a mistake. So we could easily see this guy as head coach considering the stupid moves this organization has made throughout the years. This team is a mess. Hope they start making better decisions. PMA

White Sox Acquire Manny Machado’s Brother-in-Law.
January 3rd, 2019 at 3:49 pm
Ya got long arms there Joe.
January 3rd, 2019 at 3:50 pm

KRIS RICHARD 4 HC!!!!

Unless its Rodgers, I don’t care
January 3rd, 2019 at 4:04 pm
This article is a joke….things must be slow.
So you’d prefer Joe not share this info? The dude has more regular season snaps than Ryan Griffin.–Joe
January 3rd, 2019 at 4:06 pm
He has PS eligibility where Griffin has none.
January 3rd, 2019 at 4:06 pm
Maybe he can stay on our roster for 3 years and not get a snap like Ryan Griffin.
January 3rd, 2019 at 4:15 pm
Joe can we got a poll on which Head Coach candidate Bucs fans want?
January 3rd, 2019 at 4:17 pm
Eyes a NO on McCarthy too!!!
January 3rd, 2019 at 4:25 pm
Having personally watched McCarthy coach up here in Wisconsin for the past 7 years I would give a big “HE11 NO!!!!” To him coming to Tampa. Same problems as Dirk. Way to stubborn, garbage game plans, BAD defense, and ZERO halftime adjustments. Hard pass
January 3rd, 2019 at 4:26 pm
Keep your eye on the current Rutger’s coach, i read where Bellichick said something nice about him once.
He is 7-29 but what the heck.
January 3rd, 2019 at 4:27 pm
No thanks….
January 3rd, 2019 at 4:31 pm
No Thanks
January 3rd, 2019 at 4:34 pm
I say no to Mike as well. But if he is hired I just can’t wait to hear what kind of candy, TV show, and vegetable he likes to eat attached to every single reference of his name…
January 3rd, 2019 at 4:46 pm
👍, Robert.
January 3rd, 2019 at 4:48 pm
No to McCarthy
January 3rd, 2019 at 4:53 pm
Really Joe?? so they think that by signing a practice squad guy from the Packers would help bring McCarthy in? WOW! Yea, i’m sure McCarthy was sitting at home and heard they just signed this no name QB and he is like. “man, I have to get to Tamp now, look who they just signed”.. SMH.. Take some time off Joe you need it.
Joe would suggest you actually re-read what’s written here.–Joe
January 3rd, 2019 at 5:20 pm
Joe the guy has more regular season games the Griffin lmao. I wonder if he ever gets to play a real game I have a feeling Griffin will be great if he does
January 3rd, 2019 at 5:20 pm
If we’re going to be signing a Head Coach with the name Mike, I pray to god that it’s Mike Munchak and not Mike McCarthy.
January 3rd, 2019 at 5:29 pm
JOE SAYS – So you’d prefer Joe not share this info? The dude has more regular season snaps than Ryan Griffin.–Joe
Can’t Ryan griffin get any love around here? Just a tad?
January 3rd, 2019 at 5:30 pm
Callahan FEARS Griffin
January 3rd, 2019 at 5:31 pm
McCarthy is not exactly the splash hire I keep hearing about. Come on. We can do better. BA or Richard please.
January 3rd, 2019 at 5:38 pm
“Mccarthy is going to either Browns or Jets or sit the year
his 2 kids go to high school in Milwaukee and Mike doesn’t want to switch schools. Cleveland and New York are the only teams close enough for this to work logistically”

Guy from Minot State might take the job.
As Randy Hedberg said, “Why not Minot”.
Hard to believe but Randy is 64 years old now.
January 3rd, 2019 at 5:44 pm
Joe Callahan was also a New Orleans Saint for a week, maybe he can give us all of their offensive secrets.
January 3rd, 2019 at 5:51 pm
Seems very odd to sign players when we don’t have a coach yet! This doesn’t seem normal or random.
January 3rd, 2019 at 5:56 pm
Joe if the Bucs were smart they would put you all on the staff somewhere. You all can definitely come up with conspiracies and angles that would never cross the average person’s mind. I’m sure you all could come up with all types of creative approaches to help them vet the coaching candidates.
January 3rd, 2019 at 6:08 pm
Let’s hear it for the Mike’s. McCarthy, Munchack, Mularky & Ditka
January 3rd, 2019 at 6:10 pm
I want Madden!
January 3rd, 2019 at 6:21 pm
Tom you left out Mike Alstott, Mike Evans, and Mike Hunt.
January 3rd, 2019 at 6:22 pm
Probably has more to do with Fitzpatrick likely retiring and our starting QB allegedly sexually assaulting an Uber driver
January 3rd, 2019 at 6:25 pm
Jason the Magnificent should just coach the team himself. These were very impressive moves he made today 👏👏👏
Bring that man another pitcher of PBR 🍻
January 3rd, 2019 at 6:30 pm
McCarthy too fat to put up with Tampa Bay weather.
January 3rd, 2019 at 6:41 pm
Please for the love of god NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHATS UP WITH BRUCEY BRUCE?!!!???
HAVE THE BUCS EVEN ASKED TO SPEAK WITH HIM?
January 3rd, 2019 at 6:49 pm
All good….the answer is JOHN HARBAUGH.
Team Glazer…JOHN HARBAUGH. Please and thank you.
January 3rd, 2019 at 6:51 pm
Jason Gump stays, Kobe Faker goes
2 days and 6 hours and change”
Kobe Faker
———————————————————————–
Hey Kobe,
You said if Jason stays you would be gone.
Yet here you are.
Of course you said you would be gone if the Bucs beat the Chiefs 3 years ago too.
You can’t be trusted.
January 3rd, 2019 at 7:09 pm
Read the reports….what’s the Packers problem with Pat Fitzgerald not wanting to work for them???!?! For some, it ain’t about money. Leave the dude alone.
And McCarthy….sure as hell ain’t NO JOHN HARBAUGH. So…we’re good.
Team Glazer, please just do you, and by that, I mean please not only pursue JOHN, but acquire JOHN Harbaugh.
Thanks….this dude.
January 3rd, 2019 at 7:31 pm
He couldn’t win with Rogers, so you think he can win here?
January 3rd, 2019 at 9:10 pm
A journeyman practice squad/barely active player is going to lure a Tier 1 coach? LOL, I just don’t get it.
January 3rd, 2019 at 11:30 pm
Uh… yeah, this is just a super depth signing to fill out a roster when you have Fitz and Griffin who won’t be back. I mean Griffin, perhaps he does come back, but he’ll probably follow Dirk to Atlanta I’d guess.
January 3rd, 2019 at 11:38 pm
Who knows maybe that will get Joe’s guy hired.
January 4th, 2019 at 4:20 am
Winning a super bowl now means you “cant win with”…
ONLY TO A TAMPA FAN..HAHAHAHAAAAAA!!!!
January 5th, 2019 at 12:22 pm
I have a feeling that the new coaching hire will be a coach that is currently an assisstant on a playoff team ,thats why the wait untill tuesday for an announcement.
