Arians Orders: Don’t Get Too Close To The QB
May 6th, 2019
The quarterback whisperer, head coach Bucco Bruce Arians, has certain rules when it comes to America’s Quarterback, Jameis Winston.
Now what those rules are unclear. But Arians has said several times in many ways that he has to be careful not to overcoach Jameis. That’s one thing he relies upon Clyde Christensen for, Arians said, to put the brakes on the head coach when he expects too much.
With the biggest coaching staff in NFL history, per a Peter King report, Arians probably has to take that a step further. You don’t want too many coaches in Jameis’ ear, even if it’s just a little bit.
New Bucs assistant Antwaan Randle El, the longtime NFL receiver, joked last week that Arians said he might have to fire a coach Why? Because Randle El got too close to Jameis.
Randle El said he got caught “trying to give [Jameis] a look,” something tied to the team heading out to the practice field last week. The details Randle El served up were fuzzy.
Regardless, as spring practices heat up this month, Arians will be pulling the puppet strings when it comes to the shaping of Jameis. Last week, assistant head coach Harold Goodwin shared with media that Arians sat in his golf cart and told him he was bored as *&#$ — as assistants run much of the show. Goodwin laughed and said that won’t last long.
At some point, even if just for a stretch of time, Joe suspects Arians will take over all things Jameis. Joe sees Arians now as a great predator in the jungle, just waiting for the perfect time to pounce.

This season will turn out to be a MAJOR disaster! My beloved Bucs will go 3-13 have WAY to much jet lag Licht will be fired (finally) and Arians will quit (again) siting “health reasons”. THIS GLAZER CLAN IS WHAT YOU HAVE BUILT! HOPE YOUR PROUD!!!But hey your bottom line is still really good.

Arians Orders: Don’t Get Too Close To The QB; No worries coach thats the one thing you don’t have to worry about!

Buc believer, how can you call them your beloved bucs and say junk like that?
I’m not altogether convinced things will turn around either, but you will ever see me say junk like that. When things do turn around, it will happen when we least expect it. So how do you know this isn’t the time?
I would understand a ‘Don’t Tell Me – Show Me’ attitude. After what Tampa fans have gone thru, that’s only natural. But when you say stuff like what you said, you cross the line between disappointed fan and outright hater.

I’m glad we have plenty of coaches….these players need someone up their a$$….not in their head.

Can’t wait until after it has gone all wrong, Of how their were too many “cooks in the kitchen”!!!!! And the sheep saying that how talented the roster is, and that they were just confused by too many voices telling them how to play!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The “real” question is which blowout or multi-interception game will ole stale biscuit get in his golf cart and not come back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
2019 will reveal answers to the sheep, that the “real” fans already know!!!!!!!!!!!!
Go Bucs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

cant coach talent..
this applys not only to Jameis..
i personaly have no hope at all that anything significant will change since:
hope hope hope
season after season
bad drafting, re-signing bad players, cutting good players, trading good players for BS compensation, having no run game because of waeak O-Line, having trouble to score on Offense because of it, having a bad defense with no depth…
and they still continued to do so this offseason
and some guys here talking about hope?
that’s why this clown-show is at the bottom since a decade or more…
i am talking football
most guys here talking about hope..
how about belief? go to the church or sth.
i will post Suckaneersrelated football stuff – u know

Arians is here for the Glazer Retirement package
This will not end well for the fans

“Don’t get too close to the QB.” Maybe because we should be drafting one in a year?
“…put the brakes on the head coach when he expects too much.”?? This is year 5 for the 1st overall pick. We should expect too much!
Scam Newton became “superman” and made the SB in his 5th year.

Science tells us that one cannot whisper to another without close proximity to the ear.
Come August, when the real training camp opens for business, I’m betting the “QB Whisperer” will be filling Jameis’s ears with intonation levels that far exceed a whisper …

I enjoy ALL comments, no one should be scolded for speaking what’s on their mind, that’s the purpose for “comments”…..those who have followed this team long enough have learned that most “hype” is false and by December, it all turns to sadness……that being said, I totally enjoy reading ALL comments…..no one has a crystal ball, a lot of question marks surrounding this team…
also, the only guys getting “too close to Jameis” are the opposing team’s defensive linemen
May 6th, 2019 at 8:43 am
The Bucs sucked before Jameis and they’ll suck after him too…
Always keep that in mind while blaming Jameis for this team’s woes….
I know it’s hard, cause everything is his fault.
Jameis Winston : 2019’s scapegoat!

This just seems like a really really bad ending as the bucs have yet to hit rock bottom and this is looking like a good ol richard williamson (bear bryant disciple too) 2-14 crash landing. Why wouldnt licht or the glazers say to arians, we are hiring you based on your QB coaching prowess, not for you to be hands off and let clyde the glyde and leftwich get in his ear…..jameis had 2 coaches last year plaus his personal QB coach that is telling him one thing, and I think his personal coach is a fraud, so now james will have 2-4 guys in his ear or head telling him what he should be doing, jameis to me seems he needs less options to be successful. Arains needs to be worrying about the DL getting too close to james every week as well

Tom, just read your comments and the last line is exactly what I commented and think that is spot on
May 6th, 2019 at 9:36 am
@ Buc Bonzai… I have been a season ticket holder for over 2 decades now. I go to 3-4 awAy games a year and I live eat and breath the Bucs so yes I would say that makes them my beloved Bucs. I don’t question your loyalty so you have no right to question mine.

@realist
funny how you wanted to give dirk back to back passes after back to back 5wins season!!!!!!….lol….
now you’re hoping BA falls on his face like dirk just so you can say,” i told you so”….lol….
it aint happening!!!!!!!!…..BA will expose dirk for the fraud he is…..
2019 will reveal what the “real” fan already know!!!!!!!
the problem has been coaching not talent!!!!!!!!!!….
#REALISTKNOWSNOTHING!!!!!!…GO BUCS!!!!!

At this point does anyone really care anymore?

@ TOM
fewer and fewer by the day!

Buc believer:
Same here. I’ll be going to London and Seattle this year.
May 6th, 2019 at 2:08 pm
7-9 due to the screwed up schedule, otherwise 8-8 or 9-7.
May 6th, 2019 at 5:10 pm
Gonna love to say “F#CK YOU” with BA to all you band wagonders that say we’re going to go 5-11 again.
You obviously don’t understand how it works. You can have almost everything talent wise on the field (like the Bucs) but no coaching squad, and you’re in the division dumpster for a decade. If you have an average team and a great coaching squad, you will likely rise or become very good very quickly.
We finally have a talented team with a great coaching squad. Plenty of talent on offense. Drafted Vea and White the past two years. And have stocked up on good, young DBs. And anyone that wasn’t aware, Bowles played FS (including starting Redskins XXII blowout win), and was a secondary coach his entire coaching career up until DC and HC.
This new coaching staff is a very talented crew that ain’t gonna put up with any sh!t. Players start to lose, this good coaching staff ain’t gonna have any of it.

Don’t get to close because you don’t want to catch the dumb bug that JW has a serious car of. We should have nabbed Will Grier. Mark my words: Grier will replace an oft injured Cam Newton and become a superstar in our own damn division.
