Bucs to interview WADE PHILIPS for Head Coach

Phillips is only 1-5 in the postseason but in stints with Denver, Dallas and the Bills he has a career winning percentage of .581 (83-64). In Dallas it was .607 (34-22).

It would actually be a good hire for them.

I like Phillips, even though I have made fun of the Bucs for considering him. The reason has more to do with the Bucs than Wade.

The Bucs are not going to spend big money to help a coach out in the talent department. He is not going to be surrounded by a strong organization totally committed to do all they can with the franchise. They are becoming the Pittsburg Pirates, an organization that just hopes to catch lightning in a bottle and somehow get to the promised land. I just don't see Wade Phillips, Mike Sherman, or Brad Childress as the right fit for them.

They might as well hire the next Raheem Morris and hope it works out well this time.

Between Marty and Wade, I'd be more nervous competing against Marty - proven winner and leader as a head coach. But he is a pretty intense "old-school" coach...maybe even more so than Tom Coughlin, which would make for a tough adjustment for Tampa's young players. Interesting that Rob Chudzinski was part of his staff at San Diego.

    • Other than the wasted pick on Allar, id love this.
    • Hos production by snap count and targets isn't bad. They must REALLY be tired of dealing with his knuckleheaded behavior which is saying something for an organization that put up with Stephon Diggs for four years.
    • Bryce had his best season this year and it wasn't even remotely as good as Stroud's "worst" (2024, which was still a damn good season). His passer rating and efficiency were actually up this year compared to last.  His yards and TDs would likely have been higher as well, were it not for missing three games due to injury.  So he's actually improved his overall body of work. I don't see any trend downward whatsoever.  I agree the playoff game was a meltdown, but I think that had much more to do with missing weapons and what appeared to be an injured hand.  After his hand hit the center's helmet his accuracy clearly suffered.  It was a terrible game, but I don't foresee it being as career-altering. In regard to the topic of the thread, I'd trade 5 Bryce Youngs for one CJ Stroud in an instant and never look back.
