Anyone watching the BUCS vs. Cowboys??

Poor Kyle Trask. He's probably going to be who they run with next year with that incompetent coaching staff.

 

Kyle will have a very tough time unless they get their line problems fixed.

 

FINAL SCORE.

Dallas Cowboys. 31.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers. 14.

 

Agree that it's probably time to retire for Brady, but "embarrass?" They lost pretty much every Olineman this year. It was patchwork throughout the season. Despite that, Brady is third in passing yds (4,694), only behind Mahomes and Herbert. He was sixth in completion % among starters and eighth in passing TDs. I don't think he embarrassed himself by any means.

 

Yet, Brady is only two years removed from a Super Bowl and has very little to work with this season including the coaching staff? Even with those deficiencies, check Tom's passing stats for this season and get back to me.

 

Byron Leftwich made a colossal career mistake by not taking the Jaguars job last year. He wanted a GM of his choosing also, Shad Khan balked at that and instead hired Doug Pederson. The rest is history.

 

Book it now, Bowles will be fired mid season next year. The guy is a trash HC. Should be fired today.

 

Maybe he'll get lucky and get traded to a team in need of a solid back up. Starting for TB behind that O line with that defense next season is the career equivalent of driving off a cliff. Better to serve in Hoboken than to rule in football hell.

 

..and now to no surprise, the Bucs fire Leftwich. Meanwhile, in Jacksonville..

Buccaneers fire offensive coordinator Byron Leftwich as sweeping staff changes are expected

 

PSST.....It Bowles that needs to go.

 

No kidding, they dumped 9 guys and yet the head guy stays? what a waste of time.

 

My take is somewhat different since I don't follow the Bucs that closely. Just my opinion and although they have been very inconsistent when the Cowboys are playing up to their potential they are among the best four teams in the NFL. Wouldn't surprise me to see the Cowboys in the Super Bowl.

 

I am of the opinion Leftwich is not a good OC and most of the good offense is basically Brady calling plays.

That said, NFL = Not For Long. This ain't 2020 anymore. A lot has changed.

Suh: Gone
JPP: Gone
Shaq Barrett: Only played 8 games
Fournette: 2 years older and now likely washed up
Godwin: Recovering from injury and not as effective
Jensen: Injured
Marpet: Retired
Cappa: Gone
Antonio Brown: Persona non grata
Gronkowski: Retired
Whitehead: Gone

The new players have not stepped up as much.

Devin White: Just not as good as people expected at this point
Joe Tryon: Meh
Trask: MIA

They were still top 10 in total defense.

 

Oldest roster in NFL.
Projected -$54 Million in cap space.

Bucs have bigger issues than firing coaches can fix.
