The sweet sweet tears of Bucs fans on losing Delaire...

In the 4th when Delaire forced an intentional grounding attempting to get his 3rd sack of the day, Deckerhoff says "where did they get this guy?!?!"  Well, Gene, he was on our roster 4 weeks ago. Of course, DE is such a deep position of strength for this team, we could afford to dump young talent in favor of injured "never has beens."  Absolute travesty.

 

 IM STILL A FAN I HAVE NO CHOICE BIG ASS BUCS FLAG TATTED ON MY NECK BUT I SIR AM READY TO WALK THE PLANK SERIOUSLY ARE WE REALLY THIS BAD

 

 Wow. Just had a closer look at Delaire. He is better than any edge rusher on our roster by heaps. Not even close. He beat Cherilus on a spin move for a sack and repeatedly beat DSmith when he was lined up against him including his second sack.

He also got robbed of another sack when Winston intentionally grounded the ball to avoid the sack. The guy was unblockable most of the game. How did Licht/Robinson let this kid walk away? 

Jaq Smith is a nice pass rusher but teams are running it straight at him. He is a one trick pony and a liability against the run. Delaire was the complete package yesterday from either side of the formation. It looks like we let a really good one get away.

 Delaire not being a Buc and Brinzda being one,  are 2 bad personnel moves that could well be the difference in this team being 3-1 or 2-2 right now. It would be a shame to lose Koeter, who is a good OC, but Lovie is making bad personnel moves and as of now looks washed up as a D coordinator. We'll see how he finishes the year, but after yesterday I'm for change next year.

Delaire reminds me of the one armed bandit (AC).  Violent with his hands.

Meanwhile the rest of the Bucs DE's have decided to show Cam Newton a knitting session they have planned for Friday night.  Sigh.

Here's a great response to someone saying their forum didn't seem to complain when Delaire was cut:

That's true, GT, but the Red Board didn't get the chance to fairly evaluate this guy since he arrived in Tampa. Lovie did. Evaluating players and finding gems is not easy, but some organizations/GM's/HC's are clearly better than others.

    • As I've said numerous times the last few days, having Thielen on the field has literally 0% to do with my views on this (I've even said I think Renfrow is going to take a ton of snaps from Thielen anyways).  He has more value to this team without playing a single snap than a 2026 5th round draft pick does for the franchise.   His value is helping set up T-Mac, XL, Coker, and Horn for long term success by helping them learn how to be pros, how to go about their business, how to train, how to do all the little things that helped turn Thielen from a D2 undrafted player into a borderline Vikings legend.
    • He only wants to be traded because it's the Vikings who are calling. If he didn't want to be here, he could have retired, instead he took a pay raise to come back for another season.  I get it, it's an opportunity that he'd like to take, but we shouldn't cut off our nose to spite our face because he now wants to jump at this opportunity less than two weeks before the season starts. I'm not against trading him, I'm just against trading him for a return that doesn't help our team as much as having him on the roster would.  I'll put it this way, if a 5th is the best we can get for him from the Vikings and he's now dug in on not wanting to stay this year, I'm saying screw you and trading him to any of the other 30 teams besides the Vikings for the best offer we can get. He was perfectly happy here a week ago, if the Vikings soured him on that and then want to get him for peanuts, then screw them both.
    • Yes and no, he wants to go back and his wife most definitely wants to go back. He took a bunch of team mates to Minny and has worked out with JJ two offseasons in a row. It's where both him and his wife are from.    The money was basically a please come back and help Bryce. Pretty please...here's some more money.    Now he's agreed to a paycut to go back to the Vikings.
