They can’t run the football, their offensive scheme is predictable, the defense looks slow, special teams are horrible. They need to get rid of Bowles and the rest of the coaching staff and start over. Bowles failed miserably on a prior stint as a HC, and has not learned a thing since. Not credible and the team looks uninspired. Promoting him to HC was just plain stupid.
Hell, had Godwin turned around a split second earlier he might catch that. I am becoming a fan of going for 2 down 14 as well. IIRC Napier kinda did something similar against Tennessee last year and caught a lot of heat for it but I like it. I think it was a 3 score game. It's roughly a coin flip. With 2 cracks at it you have a roughly 75% success rate getting one of them. Only 15% less than the PAT rate. I said it preseason they just need to blow it up and start over. I am not really a Caleb Williams fan. Much prefer Drake Maye. I am just not sure they'll draft that high with their schedule. Still play sorry ass Carolina twice. I could see them falling forward and getting 6-7 wins which kinda sucks. Atlanta has been doing this for a while wasting away in mediocrity.
Haha. I think we are in the Trask curse phase. I hope that either Trask gets a shot there or he gets traded somewhere to get a shot. The bad thing is if he gets traded, he likely goes somewhere else just to be a backup. His best chance of starting a game now is if Baker gets benched, which seems unlikely.
I think he may get a shot when the Bucs have been eliminated from the playoffs. But until then, it is Mayfield. But as long as he is making a NFL backup's paycheck, I certainly won't cry too much.
There is a staunch contingent of Bucs fans who feel as though Trask was a waste of a draft pick. I think a good bit of it is other Florida school fanbases that are Bucs' fans who hate him just because of his UF affiliation. If he was Kyle Trask from Stanford, they'd probably be calling for him to start right now.
are you from Tampa? Do you have season tickets? not a single fan I know has ever suggested that so, I don’t believe you. He was a 64th player drafted, the 3rd buc you honestly expect him to start ahead of brady? mayfield has a 1 year contract. if bucs are eliminated from contention you WILL see trask
I recall TT's "audition" with Denver. What it took was for Fox to be shown what the "exit door" looked like. And then he thought it okay to just "give them what they want and if the franchise blows up, too damn bad." No one seems to realize that coaches and GMs love their adoration and paychecks as much as the players. When they think it is going to end, they can get desperate or they can be setting up "going away presents" or even both (to me, that was Fox). Bowles may be a Dumbo-type - if I am going down, I am going down MY WAY - but if he is removed, then the next guy is likely going to want to play with the monopoly money known as "interim".
I'd sit there with a clipboard for 1/2 of what he's making....even though it might affect my social security checks.
I don't need season tickets, nor do I need to live in Tampa to read the Bucs message boards and Twitter (X). There are many many comments suggesting Trask was a waste of a pick. I check them all the time... in fact I was just reading comments on Mayfield and Trask on the major Bucs forum and Twitter before I posted my original message. Whether the people you personally know say it or not is irrelevant. As far as Trask starting over Brady, I have no idea why you brought that up, because I certainly didn't say it... and it is a ridiculous thing to suggest. By the way, I did live in Tampa for several years. Not sure that it matters.
Fans can feel any way they want, but they don’t know shit. Until Trask gets his chance to start, and either proves himself to be worthy or not, we will never know. We already know that the guy starting in front of him will never lead them to a Super Bowl. If I were the owners, trash would play and we would find out. He sat on the bench and learn enough. It’s now or never let’s go.
If you're 67, it wouldn't affect them at all. If you're 62, one game check would cancel them for the rest of the year and they'd be coming after what you already got this year.
Those message board trolls are idiots. Hot takes not confined to gators fans You dont want to engage or discuss I could sense your anger typing that response He is in the wing’s otherwise he’d be cut or traded Buh bye
