soap opera in tampon bay

As much as I don't want the Saints to start 2-0 and have to listen to their fans thump their chest, an 0-2 start in TB with all their internal issues might do them in.

 

I think we proved last year we can handle the Saints, so if the Falcons lose to St. Louis Sunday (which can happen), things will look pretty good for the Panthers provided we win

Coaches manipulate the "captain" thing all the time....

They will assign them themselves.

They will assign some and let some be voted

They will dictate if they are up for any player or a certain should from each side of the ball

Schiano could easily manipulate the vote...he doesn't have to let them vote to begin with.

Exactly. Didn't Rivera himself say Smitty and Gross were Captains Emeritus so only four spots were even really up for a vote?

Unlike carolina, Tampa bay was born in the darkness.

We merely adopted it.

Alright that does it Fiz. I've been a fan of your asshatery for some time now, but being as this is the best post in the history of the huddle (and nice TDKR reference btw), I will now follow you into hell.

yep...and we went to best 6 opting away from 2 O and 2 D 1 ST......so Cam could be one.  Essentially, he altered how we did our C's to get who he wanted with a C on their chest.

    • As I've said numerous times the last few days, having Thielen on the field has literally 0% to do with my views on this (I've even said I think Renfrow is going to take a ton of snaps from Thielen anyways).  He has more value to this team without playing a single snap than a 2026 5th round draft pick does for the franchise.   His value is helping set up T-Mac, XL, Coker, and Horn for long term success by helping them learn how to be pros, how to go about their business, how to train, how to do all the little things that helped turn Thielen from a D2 undrafted player into a borderline Vikings legend.
    • He only wants to be traded because it's the Vikings who are calling. If he didn't want to be here, he could have retired, instead he took a pay raise to come back for another season.  I get it, it's an opportunity that he'd like to take, but we shouldn't cut off our nose to spite our face because he now wants to jump at this opportunity less than two weeks before the season starts. I'm not against trading him, I'm just against trading him for a return that doesn't help our team as much as having him on the roster would.  I'll put it this way, if a 5th is the best we can get for him from the Vikings and he's now dug in on not wanting to stay this year, I'm saying screw you and trading him to any of the other 30 teams besides the Vikings for the best offer we can get. He was perfectly happy here a week ago, if the Vikings soured him on that and then want to get him for peanuts, then screw them both.
    • Yes and no, he wants to go back and his wife most definitely wants to go back. He took a bunch of team mates to Minny and has worked out with JJ two offseasons in a row. It's where both him and his wife are from.    The money was basically a please come back and help Bryce. Pretty please...here's some more money.    Now he's agreed to a paycut to go back to the Vikings.
