Team is definitely trending up but I have little confidence until I see this team win a playoff game. But I love what I’ve seen the past 2 weeks.
December 27th, 2023 at 9:09 am
I am confident Todd Bowles will be Head Coach next year if the Bucs win the next two games (and they should).
December 27th, 2023 at 9:13 am
Maybe I’m just stubborn but barring a postseason run I am not sure I can get beyond a little confidence answer this year. I am glad he seems to be adjusting and becoming more aggressive, but there’s still too many weird things he has done this year that makes me doubt him. I can’t help but wonder if the win streak has more to do with the players and Canales than Bowles. I am rooting for him though and hope they continue to improve.

I am impressed with the direction of the team in the past few weeks. However, coaching makes the difference in one to two wins per year via their decision making during games. This is where I have little confidence in TB. I still do not think he is HC material
December 27th, 2023 at 9:21 am
The fans are flipping just like the talking heads ! Majority had no confidence last I saw this poll and now the majority has confidence . Todd really has made believers in the past two weeks.
December 27th, 2023 at 9:36 am
He messed up the offense last year and it hasn’t got any better this year until two weeks ago. Takes more than two games to start a trend. But it’s a beginning.
December 27th, 2023 at 9:36 am
Not, hope springs eternal.
December 27th, 2023 at 9:41 am
I’m back to believing man lol. lets go
December 27th, 2023 at 9:42 am
Having a hard time getting over the first Falcons loss and the Texans comeback win. Really should have won both those games! I did vote Confident though just for the way they’ve improved and started winning.

‘Really should have won both those games!”
Exactly the point I made above. A good coach does not lose games the team should have won. A really good coach adds one or two to the win column. Yes, I know all teams have their ups and downs that are not attributable to the coach. But when the Bucs loose games by running a weird game plan (like forcing the run against a team that has poor pass defense, ie Steelers last year0 and takes the ball out of his best players hands (Brady last year) with the game on the line, THAT is NOT good coaching

You are what your record says you are…and he’s got a winning record this year! Happy to throw his NYJ record in the trash, also. So he’s at .500 as a Bucs coach in the regular season, 16-17 overall. Getting there…
December 27th, 2023 at 10:27 am
People in here sure are true to their beliefs! Two weeks ago it wqas 98% negative, today the same people say they’re 55% positive? Same coach, same players. Make up your mind people.

Missed the vote. I would have voted ‘Confident’ like I’ve been doing all year. Canales is the one who has been driving me crazy. It looks like he is maturing into his job.
December 27th, 2023 at 11:16 am
If a good Head Coach does not lose games that they should have won, Andy Reed and 20 other coaches would be out of jobs this year.
Even Mahomes needs talent around him! I mean, he’s a “game manager” right?
December 27th, 2023 at 11:19 am
It’s crazy how 2 games can erase a year and a half of underachieving.
December 27th, 2023 at 11:42 am
I came late to the dance but I am voting no confidence once again. I am close to moving to little confidence but not quite there yet.
December 27th, 2023 at 11:55 am
The man’s on a 4 game tear. How do you not vote confident?
December 27th, 2023 at 11:58 am
not fooled by a weak portion of the Bucs schedule….
missed the voting pole but vote: NO CONFIDENCE in Bowels!
Defense is still sketchy….
Now in Canales and the offense: Confident – they are carrying this team!
December 27th, 2023 at 1:32 pm
Still has to be LITTLE to NO Confidence
Bowles is a defensive minded head coach who calls plays for a defense that ranks
32nd In passing yards allowed
23rd in Passing TD’s allowed
That won’t get it done against competent QB play
Bowles is being saved by Baker, Canales & The Defense
December 27th, 2023 at 1:39 pm
I’m still where I was in week 1 with little confidence all it takes is a ass whooping against the saints and all y’all will be right back to firing him and blowing it up fickle bunch here

2023: Tampa Bay Buccaneers
-Points For: 326 (21.7/g) 17th of 32
-Points Against: 302 (20.1/g) 11th of 32
Keep it going, Coach! We’re getting hot at the right time!
December 27th, 2023 at 1:39 pm
Totally Confident!!!
December 27th, 2023 at 2:16 pm
This was closed, but I’d go from ‘no’ to ‘little’.
But get into the playoffs, which isn’t a done deal yet folks, and that would require me to upgrade that once again.
I hope he can get it done.
December 27th, 2023 at 2:23 pm
Right now…today…this very second?
All in on Todd and Baker.
Don’t have a choice.
Not rooting for losses. Can’t do it. Won’t do it.
Win out and let’s beat dem loser cowboyz.
December 27th, 2023 at 3:07 pm
A few weeks ago, we were all ready to ride Coach Bowles out of town on a rail and dump him in the Bay. Fast forward, and the man has new life. He has surprised us all. Lets give him some credit. He buckled down and turned this team around.
December 27th, 2023 at 3:39 pm
Four straight wins – two very close – and all against bad/struggling teams.
How quickly everyone forgets. This is a mirage, Bowles is still the weak, losing, head coach he has always been.
Remember this when we finish 8-9 next season.
December 27th, 2023 at 4:14 pm
Personally like him but it’s still little to no confidence til he proves to maintain this new found aggression and can prove to be the first defensive coach to find a way to consistently win in this era.

Buc1987
Now you’re channeling the spirit of the Ole Buc1987, a true die-hard fan.
It brings back memories of how you used to meticulously maintain a list of names (lol, good times), keeping track of those who weren’t loyal supporters of the team.
December 27th, 2023 at 6:48 pm
I missed this vote which seems to be a few hundred votes short of the last ones. I was planning on upgrading my vote from no confidence to little confidence.
December 28th, 2023 at 1:03 am
Fully anti-confident.
