The Bucs have a tough schedule and are playing their worst football. It's unironically gonna be us vs Atlanta for the NFC South.

Next three weeks decide this poo show. But anything can happen in the playoffs 6-1 or not the Giants coming to town would be a winnable game.

Doesn't mean we should go all in on the wrong guy. Just look at the Niners with Trey Lance. Good overall roster but hamstrung because they went all in on the wrong guy so now they're having to double down and try to figure out how to win with what amounts to a high end backup in Jimmy G.

 

Bad thing is the FA QBs this off-season aren’t very good. 
So we either draft a QB or hope Corral can be a true starter or resigned Baker or Walker and hope that the team can rise above their problems. 
Either way the QB position from what we have right now in the NFL looks bleak as heck.

Yes. Don't just go all in because QB is our biggest need. Do the scouting work and if you aren't 1000% sure that they are the franchise guy trade down and acquire more assets and draft capital to use later when you identify the right guy. In the meantime, you can sign a vet like Teddy, Cam, or Jimmy G to a 1-year deal and see what's available next offseason. With how bad the South looks right now you'd probably still win the division and wouldn't have any threat to your job security. This is what should of happen in 2020 but Matt Rhule happened.

Someone out of this draft class (maybe more than one) will probably end up being legit. It's about figuring out who.

Anything can happen except for anyone in this division winning a game.

2 out of 3 teams who made the playoffs with a losing record won their first game, the one loss was Rivera with the Redskins against the eventual SB champions and they actually gave the Bucs quite a fight despite having Taylor Heinicke at QB... Yes odds are the winner of this division gets smoked whoever it is, but it's absolutely possible and believable that they can win a game at home.

Pretty much the only FA guys we haven't tried out that I think are interesting are Huntley and Minshew lol...It's Teddy, Sam, Baker, Kyle Allen, Heinicke, Daniel Jones, Brissett. Not that FA QB is usually a good thing but the legit veteran depth is becoming a thing of the past, McCown/Flacco types are washing up

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
