I dont hate him. I just dont believe in him anymore. I hope he has a great career and leads us to many championships in the future. But I am not going to sit here and have blind faith in him. You are right there is nothing incorrect about what he said… yet. Nothing he said was correct either. He did nothing more than give HIS opinion… and try to belittle everyone else who doesnt agree. Thats why I called his rant garbage.

silencethecritics- If you are dumb or stupid, i will let you know. You havent been so i have no problems debating our disagreements. I could do with less shots at freeman, but i get it you hate him. There was nothing incorrect about what whitetiger just said.

^^^ This guy is the perfect example of what I am talking about. Lol, anyways there is some truth to the garbage you just spewed. If they do ink Free to a long term deal then everyone will be uncomfortable as we will be a sub 500 team for the duration of his career.

Even though I’m not who was asked – I’ll answer the moronic question of whether its easier to find “one” measly QB..or 4 defensive positions:

Ask Miami, San Francisco, Or any other franchise that seemingly haven’t been the same since guys named Marino and Montana hung up their cleats.

Of course it’s easier to find 4 defensive pieces – but having said that – you CAN rest assured the Bucs WILL NOT be selecting a QB in the draft any higher than a 3rd round back up possibility – at least for the next 5 years.

Here’s another thing – you’re going to be very uncomfortable when The Rockstar inks Freeman to a nice long deal – probably sometime art the draft.

You low information football guys really should leave the heavy lifting to those of us who pay attention, Sundays will be more enjoyable for all of us if you just shut your collective pie holes while you chew.

Ok I get it: some think discussions are won by destroying their opponents character , calling names or belittling someone’s gender. Has someone been using these tactics in the judicial arena ? Someone suggested some of us have not followed our team, I take umbrage at that seeing I have spent far too much money watching the Bucs struggle and slide backwards over and over.

Maybe a word of wisdom, I know I’ve been labeled stupid and and idiot, but listen a moment please. Let’s disagree without being disagreeable. Who knows, in the heat of argument someone instead of insulting one of us idiots, a flaming arrow of insult is shot at Joe and someone gets kicked out of the game.

With this being said, I will watch, hope and pray the good Josh comes to play this year.

Jarrett you still arent understanding anything I’ve said. I have said many times that we will not be getting a QB this year. However, that does not mean we cant try… This is how I look at it.

The defense needs 2, 3, maybe even 4 pieces to become legit. Offensively we are just a QB away from being a playoff team…
So, knowing that… Do you really believe that getting 3 or 4 players is easier to fix than just 1 QB? Chances are its not.

The draft and free agency will be defense heavy, no doubt but if you read the post I am not the one who continually praises Freeman and blames everything solely on the defense… hell, theres a post here that blamed the defense for Freeman’s horrible play.. Lol, thats laughable. And we dont need an Elite QB, just a consistant one… Something Free knows nothing about so far in his career.

Oh and I only harp on Free so much mainly because I love to hear people call others names that dont agree with there opinions. It makes my day to see people stoop to childish behavior. Glad you arent one of them and like to have a mature debate instead of calling me stupid.

Silencethecritcs- let me know when the next elite qb becomes available. If one does i am all for getting better at every position. I doubt we have a top 3 pick any time soon. So let me know when this happens. When it does we can talk about improving qb. Until then lets talk about improving things that we actually can like the defense. Or are you only capable of ripping freeman. I know you understand this. This draft lets focus on getting better on defense. We can improve like 4 or 5 positions. When it is possible to find a better qb option we can have discussion then.

Mr Lucky is actually spot on. We have to endure Free for hopefully just another year but he is nothing more than average… if that. Yes the defense needs to be fixed. So does the QB position…. to not realize that is just, as Captain Name caller would say, stupid.

@ Captain Name Caller

This probably doesn’t mean anything to you… but I could careless what you think of me…. but seriously though? Thats the best you got is calling me a chick? Lol who is the one riding Freemans jock strap? That would be YOU.

Mr. lucky why is it the informed beat writer says 13 mil a year, maybe because he knows what market value is.

Mr lucky do yourself a favor and google what average qbs make. Cassel got 11 mil a yr 3 yrs ago. Sanchez makes 13 million a year, cutler too. I know this smart stuff is way over your head but use google.

Anyone, and I mean ANYONE, who would sign Freeman for $13 million/year needs to have their voting prividges, drivers license and US citizenship revoked.

Freeman is one thing: AVERAGE at best and INCONSISTENT mostly.

The combination of the two mean one thing: Making the playoffs with Freeman is dubious at best.

My problem is that RIGHT NOW, there aren’t many good prospects that are BETTER than Freeman. Let’s face it was ANYONE happy with Trent Dilfer? I wasn’t but Trent did well enough to help his team not lose the Super Bowl.

I’m worried that Freeman turns the ball over way too much when it’s crunch time. The basics that he should have mastered by now he still struggles with. It he had continued to progress as the season went on I wouldn’t be so harsh but in 2011 and 2012 as the season went on Freeman regressed and THAT concerns me greatly.
