Well at least we won't come in last

I say this with all seriousness. The bucs should trade Leftwich to Oakland. He is what Jamarcus Russell is supposed to be. He's a huge, strong-armed QB. And he has the experience that Russell lacks. Oakland has an outstanding defense (I know, I know, 200 yards on the ground this week, but that's an abberation and due in large part to the offense being completely incapable of staying on the field.) With a somewhat competent offense they could compete is a surprisingly weak AFC West.

Sure Leftwich has had his struggles. But if you think he could do any worse than Russell (12 of 21, 61 yards, 2 INT) you are daft. I like Leftwich, he may not be accurate, but he has some fire, he's just been put in some of the shizziest situations a QB could be put in. A floundering Atlanta and an abysmal Tampa Bay. I think if you plug him into Oakland with the arsenal of weapons they have, he could make something happen. Russell just flat-out refuses to throw to his wide receivers.

    • I mean, we are gonna stink at some positions. We have a bad roster, so you just have to expect that on a cellar dwelling team. The hope is that it's a net improvement over last season. If we accomplish that, I am good. I don't want to see Rhule era panic and more outgoing draft capital in another foolish "a couple of pieces away" campaign. 
    • Worse than Gabriel is insane. That's "about to be out of the league" status. That draft really will go down as the worst class in NFL history for QB's. If it wasn't for Purdy, there wouldn't be a single NFL QB in the entire thing. But, the most impressive of all is us picking the only one of them that ended up never seeing an NFL game. #TepperMagic
    • With Morgan, I see a plan. No, you don't measure the GM at this point in terms of wins and losses--but we will later.  I thought Hurney sucked in free agency and was sub par after round 1 of the draft.  When Fox was a lame duck and did not inform the GM, Hurney drafted Jimmy Clausen and moved up for Armanti Edwards. He started trading away future first rounders when he got desperate (to get Otah and then drafted Everette Brown the following year)  Gettlemen was the "one-year contract" guy.  The players hated him.  Fitterer was terrible.    It is too early to tell with Morgan, so you have to look at the pieces.  Our OL was bad, now our OL is good.  WR was a weakness--now WR seems to be a strength.  DL was bad, now DL should be very good.  Pass rush was bad, we have 2 solid rookies and added Wonnum and Jones.  I think Morgan has had 2 solid drafts, especially in rounds 3-7.  He has had 2 good seasons bringing in UDFAs, imo.  The team went from terrible in 2024 to taking the two super bowl teams down to the wire late.  The energy is positive.  The wins will come.
