After a string of arrests last offseason, the Bucs have kept their off-the-field noise to a minimum in 2012. That changed over the weekend.

The Los Angeles Times confirmed with the LAPD that Bucs cornerback Eric Wright was arrested for a felony charge of driving under the influence on Saturday morning. It was a felony because Wright was involved in an accident which involved injury. (Wright was unhurt.)

Wright allegedly told police officers he was drinking and refused to take a breathalyzer. The USC product ran into trouble with the law in college, but does not have any known incidents in the pros.

He signed a surprisingly large free agent deal with the Buccaneers this offseason after a solid-but-unspectacular season in Detroit this year. (The Lions narrowly avoided another arrest here.)

New Bucs coach Greg Schiano has stressed a new accountability since taking over. It will be interesting to see how the organization responds to this arrest.

Hopefully the Panther keep it clean this off season. There may be something wrong with me but I like to hear about other teams players having these problems.

      Possibly playoff affectng news

      You would hope so. I’m confused why the sports world seems split on Bryce when he’s obviously not working out.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      So let’s do the reverse? Make everyone agree everything he does is a disaster? I also think the whole “gaslighting” is on the eye of the beholder. It went from he can’t avoid one single sack countered with he actually did that well Sunday (with data backing it) to a little breakdown of why he is so bad. People are going to have different opinions. I’m also not going to pretend this wasn’t happening Day one with this little QB.

      All this great stuff he has done, how often does he do it?  I have it at three or four games out of 14 where he was very good and then you get a drive here or a series there where there are some good things. Here is the gaslight part: everyone has put him on a curve with his first year the baseline, neglecting to understand how bad he was then. Even if he comes back twice as good, where does that really leave him? 25th ranked or thereabouts.     He had so far to go, and still does, it is a Major ‘settle’ to accept his play as worthy of giving him our future.  You want to settle when the Bucs have Mayfield, and the Saints have overtaken us at QB? We will be third in the division at QB. That is good enough for y’all?
