How many wins does Tampa get this year?

Positives
-Lovie Smith is a very good NFL coach and Frasier is our DC which may be the best Coordinator hire of the offseason in the NFL. Those two together should show immediate signs of improvement in the pass defense.
- Our new QB worked very well in our head coaches system for the Bears and has similar receiving targets in Jackson and Evans as he did in Chicago with Marshall and Alshon.
- One of the best young RB's in the league
- Pretty strong offensive line
- Top five run defense last year
- Fixed the major problem last year. The head coach. Just pointing that out again
- Strong free agency once again for three straight years. It's time for on the field results.


Negatives
- God awful pass defense last year and still needing consistent pressure by the D line and have question marks at corner.
- New system sometimes takes time to get into shape
- Offensive tackles not sure on how well they can protect good pass rushers
- Lavonte David is a stud, but other two line backers must improve.
- Health- We had a lot of injuries last year hoping this trend doesn't continue
- Division - INsanely hard division assuming the Panthers are as good, and the Falcons have solved their coaching problems with the coordinators and will be back to being very good.

I was about to :meltdown until I kept reading :lolthumb

Im not sold on McNown. Glennon needed some weapons. :popcorn

Glennon is pretty much the confirmed back up at this point. Lovie wanted McNown specifically and got him. Glennon may be viable in the future, but he just isn't NFL ready. McNown showed last year he can produce really well with weapons similar to what he has at Tampa(big receivers and a big TE).

Storm > Bucs. And that's really sad.
7-9

Did the storm make the playoffs? I haven't paid attention the last week.

Nope. The Storm lost to 17-1 Cleveland so the Predators are in.

Ehh oh well.

AFL. Who cares? At least Cleveland can say they're the best at something besides setting rivers on fire.

:ROFL2

Looked good tonight vs the Bills. Our defense looks top 5. Not sure about McNown but he played well. Oline is a concern though.

Yea our D looked awesome until the Bills left their first string vs our second string. Our Oline is worrying me too especially the fact that they aren't blocking for the run game well at all. Doug and Rainey were getting met behind the LOS a lot, though the Bills front Seven is pretty strong.

jk we suck

:ROFL2

:popcorn Heard Terrell Pryor is in town. :facepalm

Tampa Bay is Glazer's personal freak show. He charges people to get in only to get disappointed.

I'm glad I was never a real Bucs fan, or at least a real fan after Lynch left. I think that's the problem with the NFL. Your favorite players can end up playing for rivals or some team you don't care about and there's little permanence between the teams. Shit changes so much every year. CFB doesn't have nearly as many transfers.

I'm the same for the most part. NFL is fun to watch and I love my Bucs but no where close to College football or even College basketball.
