Ground Game OK With Jameis
October 20th, 2015You’ve heard it; Joe’s heard it. From the moment the Bucs selected “America’s Quarterback,” Jameis Winston, in the draft, he has told one and all how much he is a competitor.
Yet in the last game, a win over the jughead Jags, Jameis’ role was reduced. He handed the ball off to the Muscle Hamster and the Bucs ground the Jags into the ground with a ground attack.
So last week, Joe asked Jameis whether having DNA that’s always about competing means he feels cheated for not getting many chances to throw the rock and win the game.
“I’m competing,” Jameis said. “As long as we’re winning, I’m still competing. It doesn’t matter. My job is to play my role and it was so exciting just to get that win. It doesn’t matter – like I say, we have one of the best offensive coordinators in the country. That man, whatever he does, I’m with him.”
“That man,” of course, is Bucs offensive coordinator Dirk Koetter.
Joe thought it was neat that Jameis is so unselfish he is happy to let his stats sag, if that means getting a win. A lot of ego-driven quarterbacks would otherwise wail in protest.

I’m just starved for some wins. I honestly do not care how we get them, who stars, or whether the defense or offense wins the game. I just want to WIN!!!

“He handed the ball off to the Muscle Hamster” – I thought we were going to call him the “Dougernaut” or some such thing.

Doegernaut has to many holes in it… The Musel Hamster is untouchable and boarder lines HOF material, besides that… We want the Musel Hamster on the field week end and week out… You have seen what happens when the Musel Hamster goes to sleep. Unleashing the most daunting of beast is our only hope going forward… You laugh but than he runs circles around you rolls his balls over you and spins his wheels in YOUR FACE!!! The Musel Hamster has returned and is here to stay!!!! Like it love it and embrace it Mr Martin!!! Its your beast mode alter ego and it chews up the competition!!!
