New Coaching??

shadowchicken — Fri, 30 Oct 2009 18:33:20 -0000

Now i like Reheem; It is not completely his fault that we are 0-7 right now. And our secondary is starting to look good again, and even though we traded Adams our Line is kind of getting pressure on the QB (kinda) but i look around the league and another great coach is 0-6....Yes Jeff Fisher. Now maybe it's the 0-7 talking but Jeff Fisher is a vet. and he knows how to change a football team. Again, we can't really blame Reheem because it's obvious the Glazers are looking to sell and went on a huge Fire sale (get ride of vets. higher a cheep young HC) I'm sure they are looking to sell before we sign that number 2 over all pick. Whoever ends up buying the Bucs i hope they see Fisher and that cap space and feel that we can easily turn this team around. I want to hear from you guys. If Jeff Fisher is available would you want the Bucs (who ever owns the team) to go out and higher him or should we stay with Reheem and hopefully he can do something with he cap space and the high draft pick?

We Need a lot of help

With the Bucs going 0-6 so far this season, i really don't have confidence that we will be turning around our team this season, but i do feel we are a few players and experience away from becoming legit. For the first time since i can remember we have weapons on offense and like i said a few players away from having a legit Defense as well.

It's obvious we will have a top 5 draft pick; my question to you is, Do we draft Taylor Mays which will add to our lack of secondary; Have 2 beasts at safey will help for are lack of talent at CB (except for Talib) Or do we go with a DT such as Gerald McCoy, or Ndamukong Suh Or do we go with a DE to replace Gains Adams and move White to LE? Or Pick up another stud CB such as Joe Harden to go on the other side of Talib?

Please tell me what position we should draft, a name is not needed, just say why you feel the position needs the most help...Also i do believe we should trade our 3rd, and 4th for another 2ed round. As of right now we have a high first, and two 2ed. i feel if we can get 3 second round picks we can really help the depth on the OLine, the DLine and in our secondary.

Tell me what you think!!!

So i don't get to watch any of our bucs play :( So any news about the bucs i see on highlights, and this website. I was wondering how is Saby doing now? Is he starting? I know he had a few (huge) mistakes but the chatter is quiet about him now. IDK if he's starting now or if he has just stepped up his game.

Also How is our LBer core? I know i hear some talk about trying to trade Ruud (i love the guy), Also how are the outsiders playing? Are we close in any of these games or is it just ugly? Like does the Lions and Rams have more hope than we do?

Found Video of Kings Work out

shadowchicken — Tue, 22 Sep 2009 00:09:19 -0000

Now i know this is only a voluntary work out but it's nice to see our core guys there! Both Shock and Hawes, K-$ and even May! May looks great! He lost some weight though his face still looks fat hit body looks like he might be able to give us atleast 5-7 min. a night, now if he can give us 10 min i'll be thrilled. The only bad thing is the fact that i don't see Evans anywhere....though i could have just missed him. Nice to see K-$ in the weight room, because lets face it....he's skin and bones!

B. Marshall

shadowchicken — Tue, 15 Sep 2009 20:31:59 -0000

Now he played horrible the last game, but maybe that would drop his value a little bit. I think with Bryant, Marshall and Clayton that is a great WR Corps. 2 will be fighting for new contracts. Plus we have K2 across the middle (whom i wasn't very impressed with) Am i crazy to think that giving up a 2ed round pick for him is ok? I mean if you think about it we really don't need that much help. Just on the Defensive side of the ball. Maybe make a run at Richard Symore and put Gains Adams on the right so he doesn't see so many double teams. And pick up a some secondary help with our first rounder....Our OLBers didn't do as bad as i thought, but maybe it just was the fact that our secondary outshined our the play of our OLBers. I really don't think we need that much help in order to come out on top. One more piece in our secondary and a force on the Line, along with a year for Freeman and our OLine to develop, and i think we got something. Tell me if i am nuts or am i too optimistic or if i'm an idiot and just should stop posting on this site.....Also is Ward or Graham the 2ed RB?

Can someone Fill me in

On how Kyle Moore is dong? I am from So. Cal so hearing that the bucs took Moore is kinda cool. Though he his huge and can play both DT and DE, i would love to see him on the other end of Adams, I haven't heard too much about him, but maybe that's because i live in cali. Also FLip is moving back to Saftey? and Black is stepping up? Why don't we look to resign Brooks for 1 year and draft a new OLB, then make Brooks the LB coach? Maybe i am just too much of a brooks fan and am a little ticked off that he was let go. Also with Talib gone for 4 games who is going to start in his place? Also is Barber still the number 1 DB or has he slipped to covering the teams number 2 WR?

I know this it's way to early

To think about who we are going to be drafting, but i keep hearing that we are going to suck ass this year. That the only bright spot on our team is our OLine. That our Defense is suspect, that we have no QB, that we have 3 RBs who need the ball along with WR's who have never put together 2 good years in a row. The Bucs are the 4th best team in the NFC south, we wont make the playoffs and if we get to 9-7 we will be lucky.

I don't agree with this; but there is a bright spot is all of this, is it possible that we can get Brandon Spikes? Think he can step right in take over for D. Brooks. If we are decent think we can trade a few of our late picks + a (QB except Freeman) to jump up to get Spikes? I know i am jumping away a head in the future, but with all the question marks around our football team, just tell me what you think about this!!!

LBers!!!

shadowchicken — Thu, 06 Aug 2009 16:05:35 -0000

Any word on how Flip is handling the OLB? i wasnt a fan of him moving, and i hear Crowell can't stay healthy. So Ruud is our only Good LBer and we don't want to give him a new contract yet? Also How is Dexter Jackson doing? You know when we drafted him i was excited, maybe we should move him to db? Please anything you hear about our LBers would be nice!!!

N.O wants to trade CP3

shadowchicken — Sat, 18 Jul 2009 21:54:46 -0000

For cap relief? OMG this is our chance to trade for one of the best PG's in the game! I'd have to give up K$, K9, and JT, but i'd do that to have CP3, Evans, Garcia, Noc, Hawes. I love K$ and i would hate to seem him leave but I love CP3 in a Kings Uni more. Now IDK if the money is right with us giving up K$, K9 and JT but my question to everyone is what are you willing to give up? Who are you willing to send to N.O in order to grab one of the best PG's in the game. A player that can bring Sac to the playoffs on his own. Though we've seen that he cant take us any further on his own, but with a young core of Evans, Hawes, and Casspi i think he can make it work. If anything watching CP3 and Evans on the same floor would be great! What do you think?

I am not an ESPN INSIDER!!!

shadowchicken — Sat, 20 Jun 2009 11:44:27 -0000

I go to the NFL page on www.espn.com and in the upper right hand box i see (as the last bullet point) Rumors: Plax to bucs.....

Can someone help me out here!!! Though i would love an offense with, Plax and Bryant down the sidelines with K2 running across the middle, with the option of dumping it off to Derrick Ward (damn those are some big names we have in tampa!) I am a little confused with a few things 1) how does Bryant feel about being a number 2 WR? He had such a great year last year being the number 1 guy and with K2 and Ward/Graham running the ball i already see us having a tough time getting him the ball 2) Do we really want to sign Plex if he really is dumb enough to shoot himself in the leg, then lie about it saying that he got shot at applebees? (come on applebees?); 3) who ever is an insider please give me an idea of what that article says!!! Though i love what Plex brings to the table, I'm not so sure if i love what be brings to the club (or applebees....still can't wrap my head around that one.....you make millions of dollars and you say you where at applebees?)
