I mean, he threw for 4k yards and 27 tds, but so many of the 17 ints were just terrible decisions and bad bad acuracy, he only had 54% completions. Thw great thing is he is still real young and lots of time to improve.
I fear that Freeman is not the guy for the job, but I'm not sure that there is anyone better readily available. If it wasn't for Doug Martin and Vincent Jackson, this would have been a miserable Bucs season.
Oh i agree, Vjax made freeman look good a lot this season, and the bucs need to bring in compitetion at qb, but with all the help they need on the D, i hope the dont go first round QB unless they sense someone is gonna fall big time and either trade down and pick up more 2nd or 3rd round picks, or trade back up for one, but at 13 would be a big mistake unless they have another huge free agency.
Not sure who would be out there in FA for another QB. Maybe a trade for Matt Flynn or someone? Clearly Cousins will now be off the table given RG3's injury.

Oh and if Tebow, Sanchez, or Vick come to Tampa I will no longer be a Tampa fan.

I dont think i would go that far, but i would definitely be pissed, especially vick. But really i hope they dont try to do a FA qb, i would like them to take a chance on a 3rd or 4th round qb in the draft and maybe get some d line help in FA, and maybe a cb like grimes or drc. I was hoping for someone like ryan nassib from syracuse in the draft, but now buffalo may take him in the 2nd round which is too early imo. We will see though

Thats probably it, but he has to have put a bad taste in nfl front offices mouth by doing this 2 years in a row, if he ever wants to coach in tne nfl then he will need to take one of the next jobs offered to him or he wont get a chance again

Had a dream last night that I was watching Lovie's press conference for being hired in Buffalo.

Two comments largely unrelated to this post:

1. I like that you went with the acronym. Now we'll never know which one of the To/Too will be cleverly misspelled.
2. I also like your contribution to the Smoking Jay Cutler meme in your avatar.

So.... Will Saban be interviewing tomorrow? Or atleast in contact with some teams, or will he actually stay put.

Ha, thanks. I wasn't sure what to do with the user name, so I went the lazy route.

Any good reasoning behind rob ryan getting fired? Seemed like it was outta no where and the defense was pretty good this year, especially considering the injuries they had

The complete opposite of tampa's situation, our DBs make josh freeman feel like he is much better then he is, so he doesnt try to improve :lol:

So I had a tough time getting to bed last night, and decided to compile a list of possible cap casualties for 2013 to get tired. Here's what I came up with--it'll be interesting to see how many of these I get right:

Jordan Gross
Doug Free
Jay Ratliff
Joe Mays
Jeff Backus
Kyle Vanden Bosch
Jermichael Finley
Matt Cassel
Tyson Jackson
Will Smith
Jonathan Vilma
Tim Tebow
Bart Scott
Calvin Pace
Darrius Heyward-Bey
Rolando McClain
Michael Vick
James Harrison
Antonio Garay
Alex Smith
Wayne Hunter
Quintin Mikell
DeAngelo Hall
Santana Moss

Other long shots that could be possible include Miles Austin, Ryan Pickett, Chris Canty, Antonio Cromartie, Eric Smith, Tommy Kelly, and Nnamdi Asomugha.
