Week 1: Freeman, Bucs offense able to protect the ball

Anyone else notice a pattern here? No wonder this team lacks the killer instinct. Losing plus being embarrassed by mediocre teams/players (not counting ATL here) certainly cant help the psyche of the team. After a while, the self-fulfilling prophecy takes over. This is where I hold the coaches responsible. Instilling mental toughness to overcome adversity is lacking.

At this point is this even a "trend"? I feel more like this is just "the way poo is".

We've been making mediocre players look like superstars for years now. I don't even question the outcome anymore when some unknown is coming to town, I just try to predict the adjectives in the headline.

    • I don't necessarily think he will be moved, I would currently be leaning against that notion. I think a lot will depend on the coaching situation. Carroll certainly can't be thinking about wanting to go through a serious strip down and overhaul, so the longer he plans to remain, the less likely I think Crosby gets moved.
    • I think everyone says Mike Evans because of size, but really they have different strengths and play styles.  Tmac is better on intermediate routes and not nearly as good at contested catches. 
    • At this point, it is criminal to go into the 2026 training camp/OTA's with XL penciled in as a #2 WR. The team must upgrade, either through free agency or the draft. If he cannot give 100% effort on significantly less snaps as a #4-6 WR(players like Tremayne have done that consistently) then I don't think you have a player worth rostering beyond the trade deadline. Offensively, we eventually have to upgrade to an NFL starting caliber C. It's been almost the length of time from Gross to Ikey since Kalil retired and we have below average to terrible C play. Love Mays as a BC-esque utility backup but he will never be an above average long term starting C.  The TE room is one of the worst in the NFL but it's a low usage position in this offense, so the investments are likely to be small, if any. I would never expect to see an elite TE in a Dave Canales offense. 100% agree on OL depth. We actually aren't bad there but BC will be gone, Mays is a UFA, Corbett is a UFA and Zavala has been both injured and bad. We have to bolster that depth again or resign guys like Mays and Corbett to keep that depth somewhat stable.
