regardless of the outcome of this game, Rivera needs to be fired tomorrow.

truly a phenomenon to behold. it's legitimately possible that this is the biggest failboat of a season in franchise history… which is inexcusable given the pieces in place on the team.

 

once again, it starts at the top and trickles down. i'm convinced we will suck 80% of the time as long as JR sits atop the throne.

I'm with you Red, too many of our status quo-loving fan base wants to give him a pass for last season's haphazard success he wondered into.

 

we've see everything we need to see from rivera and his group of inepts.

 

i want to see what gettleman can come up with when given the chance to pick his own coaching staff from top to bottom.

 

but he needs to own that clusterf*ck he is responsible for on the OL.

 

 

Yes, the first step is to take responsibility and acknowledge the mistakes he made by gambling with the health and long term development of his quarterback by stubbornly starting undrafted rookies and guys off the street on the OL, and completely clearing out the WR's.

 

We are already witnessing a terribly stubborn inability to own up to mistakes and accept accountability from our head coach. We cannot accept the same from our general manager as well, if he can't own up to his mistakes either, then both of them need to go. Simple as that.

What did Ron do last year besides go for it on 4th downs?

That's not really a COY. Our players are the ones that had a meeting after Arizona and we went on a win streak

You mean the meeting that world famous little asshole and locker room misanthrope Steve Smith organized?

Man, I'm glad we got rid of that guy!

It is so depressing, but sadly Phil, I have come to the same conclusion.

It's almost as though I feel threads like this are borne out of the hope that I can speak change into existence for our franchise.

who do we put in his place?

not that it matters.

totally agree on it being on rivera's shoulders for us not being prepared.

Honestly, I would say McDermott because he is the best option out of the coordinators, whom usually assume the interim title when a HC is fired, but my preference would be Proehl, but no telling if he is prepared for gameday management... Then again, Rivera has been our HC for 4 years and he has no idea what he's doing on gameday either.

Well we won last season so history says we must fail this one.

 

How funny would it be if the Bucs come back and take this division.

    • Derrick Brown was one player I never called or even suggested was a bust . Dude was young and hadn't even hit his stride. It takes time to learn the position. The thing I appreciated about him is that he kept improving season after season. He got paid and keeps on going like the Energizer Bunny.
    • How many teams coddle their QB the way Bryce has been coddled? I have never seen any other team in the NFL EVER baby a QB the way that Bryce has been.  Bryce was named day 1 starter his first year. It was obvious he didnt deserve it. He wasnt ready as evidenced by the worst rookie year in NFL history.  So let's move to year 2. He's named starter again with no competition in TC and is benched 2 games later. We have the ghost of a backup in Dalton who is so bad he can only beat Vegas and let's remember, the only reason he lost his starting job was a car accident, not because Bryce actually beat him out in practice.  And year 3. We sign Dalton again, who already proved he couldn't be depended on to put an even remotely passable performance on the field, and bring back Jack Plummer, who was even worse than last year. It was obvious he was nothing more than a pretend body in an attempt to create an illusion of some type of attempt to find a backup.  Then we start again with garbage play again and Bryce gets benched with a phantom injury, and the ghost of the ghost of Dalton breaks his thumb on the first drive and craps the field all over again. If we had actually made an attempt to find a legitimate QB2, it's possible Bryce doesn't step on the field again. Bryce is not agood QB and if we had any other mediocre QB, our record would be the same or better.  Bryce is not entrenched. He's been placed, protected and sheltered from ever having to face a  real QB competition in TC. Richardson and Levis both were ass and both were benched and eventually replaced.  Do I expect Baker to face competition in camp? Sure. I expect Tampa to find the best QB2 they can at price that fits their cap and resources and system and get him up to speed. If he's better than Baker, and if he's better by a significant margin, that's best for the team. The ultimate goal is a Super Bowl. Bellichek was constantly getting QB2s with the GOAT as his starter. He knew the value and that was realized when Cassell led them to an 11-5 record as a backup.  You and I may think differently than the people that matter but I will say it again. If you're afraid to bring in a capable backup, especially after the debacle of last year. The starting role wasn't earned, it was given, and that's loser mentality.
    • I would have done the same thing.  LSU is a much better job than Ole Miss.  Plus the enormous contract and every advantage a college team can offer in terms of recruiting and facilities and tradition etc
