Marty Schottenheimer Has Raheem’s Back

August 20th, 2009

If the Bucs have a miserable season Raheem the Dream might find solace in the fact that former NFL coach Marty Schottenheimer has his back.

Co-hosting “The Red Zone” Thursday afternoon on Sirius NFL Radio with Solomon Wilcots, Schottenheimer spoke briefly about Raheem the Dream and didn’t sound as if he wanted to trade places with Raheem the Dream.

“[The Bucs] are in transition,” Schottenheimer said. “They lost a lot of players who have been terrific: Derrick Brooks, Warrick Dunn, Joey Galloway. It’s a very difficult situation to thrust a new head coach in.”

In some circles, Schottenheimer’s words mean a great deal. Producers of the NFL Network’s “Top Ten” series rated Schottenheimer among the NFL’s greatest motivational coaches.

Sports radio personality Mike North is not among this group.

    “They lost a lot of players who have been terrific: Derrick Brooks, Warrick Dunn, Joey Galloway. It’s very difficult situation to thrust a new head coach in.” Wasn’t the new head coach the reason those players were “lost” and put in the difficult situation?

    Oar makes a good point! Raheem (and the new GM) was the reason for this difficult situation because they chose to let those guys go. The Buccs are in this difficult situation because of him so he has no excuses!
