Your New Bucs Quarterback
May 21st, 2014
Yes, the Bucs have a quarterback. No, he’s not Josh McCown. No, he’s not the future. He’s not even Mike Kafka nor is he linguine-armed Brett Smith. He is Alex Tanney, pride of Monmouth College, a small school located in west-central Illinois, surrounded by cornfields, as virtually everything in Illinois is south of Chicago.
While Tanney, who has spent time on the rosters of the Chiefs, Cowboys and Browns the past three years, may never make the Bucs roster, accuracy should never be an issue with him as evidenced by this trick shot video he did three years ago while in college.

Damn, that’s pretty impressive. But I am sure The Cannon can do that…

They are considering getting rid of the Extra Point after a TD….perhaps trick shots instead

Coming to a Bucs halftime show soon!!!
Freeman could use some tudoring from Tanney….
This guy is accurate but he’s like one of those long drive champions…none of them ever make the tour….lots more to it than accuracy….like having JD Clowney bearing down on your chest!!!

I’m sure it took him a couple hundred tries to hit some of those shots, the misses were just kept off film. 3 teams in 3 years doesnt give me a lot of hope, especially if he could’nt make it in Cleveland.

Reports from Cleveland last year said he was more accurate than Caleb Hanie. Woohoo. Apparently there was talk that he might even play in a game when Wheeden was struggling with turnovers again, but the coach apparently squashed that theory. He was on the active roster instead of the practice squad because they plucked him from the Cowboys practice squad, which requires that player to be on the roster.

Good description of Monmouth, except you could have put another “small small town after small school”…”Monmouth is a small school located in a small small town surrounded by corn fields”. Honestly, don’t remember much of anything that was memorable about the town or school…..Western, Eastern, and Illinois State on the other hand…yes, some memorable ladies.

That was actually fun to watch. I was watching highlights from bucs’ last season. I actually enjoyed this one more. Must have taken a lot of takes to put it together though. He could be a starter if hitting the posts was awarded with points. Actually… can Evans jump that high? He might.

As of right now, Cleveland Browns rookie quarterback Johnny Manziel is the team’s third-string quarterback

At least this one has/had a good arm. Anyone know his faults that were revealed with the other NFL teams?

He tore up every record they had. Too bad he chose to go to a small school so he could play basketball too. He reminds me of a young Kurt Warner who everyone said didn’t have what it takes. There are alot of guys who could of had hall of fame stats and never got a chance on the field. Coaches are afraid to develope a QB any more.

Would be killer to see him play. Could be a game changer. Have a feeling he’ll never see the lime light.
In other news, NFL.com just posted that Glennon is the long term future of the Bucs.

That info has been known for weeks. Many are still in disbelief.
