@ miguel what exactlly is wrong with expecting, and testing the conditioning of your players as they start “training camp” or do all players show up in top shape at every position? We hear whinning when our players are slow and out of shape, and complaints when we hold them accountable to show up in shape for camp. Which way is it?
Show up not focused on the task at hand or show up rip roaring ready.
Bowers, injured his Achilles, before the start of camp did he not, so why even mention him injuring it next training camp. Price unfortunately had some serious injury issues from his draft year on.
I like the sound of Bowers,Clayborne,Bennett,Teo DE group for next season. Players who come to play on Sunday.
Enough of my ranting… Go Bucs!

I just hope he doesn’t rip that Achilles in the gauntlets next year. Brian Price was a real gamer until that 4th gauntlet. Pop!!

A little happier thinking of the future. Bowers, Clayborn, Bennett… Thats going to be amazing next year. Ugh, but then I think of NEXT YEAR. A whole year! Oh well, at least we can be optimistic.

They’ll save enough cap money by letting Black & Wright go (something like $12 million) that they should have no problem keeping Bennett. That’s assuming he wants to stay in Tampa of course.

I hope they don’t use this as an excuse to let Bennett walk.

Manchild is a comin’! He will only get better with playing time. Add 1 true pass-rushing DE to this line and Tampa will be on it’s way to once again having a feared defense. This assumes we nuke the current secondary and start over!

He will get it done. I don’t rely on pure stats to determine if a player is gonna be great at his position. The guy is a workhorse and our D line is beast! We need more impact from them but it’s gonna happen in time. Two more games equals two more weeks weeks of reps. That’s alot of reps. Lets go Tampa!

Bowers has looked great, but I want to see more before I proclaim it a good draft pick. plus he has stay injure free which seems almost impossible for our defensive line to do.
