Bucs Playing For Raheem The Dream’s Job

Dont worry coach. Well save your job... somehow.

"Don't worry coach. We'll save your job... somehow."

Good guy Michael Silver of Yahoo! Sports, though a Maoist, like many Bucs fans, believes Raheem the Dream is on very, very thin ice.

Though many, like Joe, believe there are many factors that will determine whether Raheem the Dream returns next season — including Chucky’s job status, it’s not out of the realm of possibility that if the Bucs finish 1-15, Raheem the Dream could be a goner.

Logic suggests that the Bucs’ owners, Bryan, Joel and Ed Glazer, will give Morris at least another year to prove himself, especially given their role (via a sudden cessation of aggressive spending) in the team’s demise and the recent promise displayed by rookie quarterback Josh Freeman.

Yet the Glazers have behaved impulsively in the past – firing Tony Dungy after three consecutive playoff seasons, shamelessly wooing Bill Parcells while Dungy was still employed, reneging on general manager Rich McKay’s handshake deal to hire Marvin Lewis and instead making a blockbuster trade for Jon Gruden.

Besides, a disastrous year in today’s NFL can derail the most diligent of long-range plans. Just ask Cam Cameron, who was fired after going 1-15 in 2007, his sole season as the Miami Dolphins’ coach.

In short, Silver explains, there’s only one way for Raheem the Dream to secure a second season as the Bucs head coach:

His players have to win for him.

    Firing Dungy wasn’t an impulsive move, IMO.
