Mike Glennon Till The Bye Week?

April 26th, 2015

mike glennon 1103b“Football doesn’t really begin until November.”Lovie Smith, October 30, 2014

Lovie Smith proudly delivered the above quote, so Joe must wonder whether Lovie will force a 21-year-old rookie quarterback into the fire when the Bucs have a bye in Week 6 this season.

What would be the hurry? Tampa Bay gets plenty of rest and practice time after its Oct. 11 home game against Jacksonville, and Jameis Winston could jump in after that.

The season doesn’t really start until November anyway, right?

Joe thinks the Bucs should just hand Winston the rock and declare him the starting quarterback before training camp. But Lovie might have other ideas. The man is very unpredictable when it comes to personnel.

Making Winston the backup initially would take pressure off the kid and off the head coach. Joe sees the potential value there. But the problem is Lovie and Jason Licht keep talking about being “on the verge” of winning and competing for a division title. And Joe has to believe naming Winston the starter out of the gate would make the team more ready to win come January.

There’s also that glorious hypothetical of starting Mike Glennon until the bye week, and the Bucs get to the bye with a glorious 3-2 record — actually winning a couple of home games! Then the head coach couldn’t pull No. 8 without starting a revived Mike Glennon Mob revolt.

    Glennon is going to destroy Winston in camp. Lovie won’t be able to name Winston starter or else he’ll look like a fool and incompetent. Lol. MG back in da house!

  2. Buc1987 Says:

    Winston will beat Glennon in training camp anyways….that’s IF Mikey is still even on the team….

    The draft is near…4 days 9 hours and 55 minutes to go.

  3. ruggyup Says:

    Let’s not debate with Joe. He’s in love.

  4. Tippy Botton Says:

    If Glennon goes 3-2 or maybe even 2-3 looking pretty good at the bye and Lovie tries to change the QB, I know a lot of ppl who would flip their sh**. Haha. Truth.

  5. tval Says:

    As someone whose seen nearly every throw glennon and winston have made since their college days, i can say with absolute certainty jameis wins the job before the preseason even starts. Mariota wouldnt win it this season and arguably longer if glennon were.given fair shake. He simply doesnt have the talent or football iq jameis has

  6. Luther Says:

    I hope Glennon is traded. We don’t need the distraction from Glennon Mobers or Glennon’s brother.

  7. P'cola Buc Says:

    Lovie likes rookies to earn their starting role. Lovie needs to establish the relationship with Winston early on. This will save Winston from being sacked early on while the oline gels at least some. This will also give Glennon a chance to show if he has learned a few things from Koetter. Shouldn’t be a problem for Winston since he had to learn patience when he was red shirted at FSU.

  8. Tampabaybucfan Says:

    I’m still thinking Glennon will be traded and we’ll pick up a veteran backup for Wiston & Winston starts game 1. We need the draft pick (potential 3rd round) more than we need Glennon.
    But…anything could happen.

    Yea….and here we go with all those who think Glennon won’t attract anyting but a 5th or 6th rounder….if that’s the case, pass on that untill the season when someone gets hurt….and someone always gets hurt.

  9. bee Says:

    Abilu

    Please, put the weed down and step away slowly. Lol. Mike couldn’t beat Josh Freeman at his worst in camp to get a starting job. He couldn’t beat McCown either, and that should really tell you something. So you expect him to beat a Heisman winner and national champion. Hahaha… thanks for the morning laugh. If you draft a QB number one in the draft, they’re starting. Period. Glennon is gonna do this year what he was destined to do, and that’s be a backup.

  10. port richey george Says:

    mike glennon will have the advantage over any new QB. why? he has had more time to learn the playbook. he has had more time to ask dirk koeter questions regarding it. also, he has participated in the off season training program. he is not out of shape from snacking on crab legs and BK burgers like someone whose name we all know…. LOL

  11. DallasBuc Says:

    Can you imagine the outrage if Morris or Schiano uttered that embarrassing line? One more example of why incompetent Lovie Smith led this 4-12 football team to a humiliating 2-14 and the first overall pick.

  12. tmaxcon Says:

    This is mute discussion Glennon won’t and shouldn’t be on the roster. After all 5 – 13 is 5-13 you are what your record says you are 8 is garbage just like LOVIES off season garbage collection run he has been on.

  13. Clodhopper Says:

    Glennon Till The Super Bowl!!

  14. Mallory Says:

    I saw L&L washing the clown car this morning getting for the inevitable Winston debacle.

  15. DallasBuc Says:

    Abilu- the HC already looks like an incompetent fool. That reality struck after he made his first QB decision for the Bucs signing and naming that career loser McCown as the starter. Incompetent fool.

  16. Bill Byrne Says:

    I certainly agree with “ruggyup”, therefore, my comments are NOT for Joe’s consumption. I clearly believe that Winston will be the BUCS pick on Thursday, so that’s not up for debate. I want to remind every fan that there has only been a very few rookie QB’s that have been successful as 1st day starters in the NFL. Both Mannings, along with Drew Breese had their problems and Brady along with Aaron Rogers watched from the sidelines. If Lovie Smith starts Winston on day one, he is intentionally throwing the 2015 season away. I sincerely believe that the pre-season games are going to expose Winston as NOT being ready on day one and that Mike Glennon should start the season and give Winston the opportunity to learn by watching!!! I hope Lovie is watching as well.

  17. Clodhopper Says:

    Kidding Kidding

  18. SAMCRO Says:

    Trade Mike … he deserves a better fate than sitting behind a guy with less talent. He needs to go somewhere where he is appreciated, and can resume his career as a starting QB.

  19. T in Orlando Says:

    @ Joe

    What happened to not “gifting” players starting positions? Mike Jenkins, Kyle Moore, Da’Quan Bowers, Luke McCown; all players you criticized the Bucs for just handing them the starting job. Now you’re suggesting they do that with Winston? I know your opinion on the lad, but is it so strong that you go back on your other opinion of not handing players jobs?

    I think there should be some semblance of a competition, and if Winston (or whatever QB we bring in) beats out Glennon; which is probably likely; then name him the starter no later than Week 3 of the Preseason.

    However if Glennon does beat out any and all QB competition, then he should be named the starter, and he should continue to start until there’s valid reason(s) on the field (injury, continuous poor play, Bucs are officially out of the Playoffs; I wouldn’t consider the Bye Week alone as a reason to start a Rookie) he shouldn’t be.

  20. StPeteBucsFan Says:

    Here’s a concept that most on this board will have difficulty accepting. With all due respect to everybody here including the Joes, I trust Koetter’s opinion more than anybody here! In fact I trust his opinion more than L&L.

    And so I’m simply hoping Koetter has a lot to say in the QB selection Thursday night and even more to say about who gets the playing time next year.

    Let the QB who Koetter believes gives us our best chance of winning get the starting nod. If that’s Fameis…great! Marcus…great! MG8…great! Sorry but whatever the decision I’m going to trust the professionals involved in making it.

  21. Anthony Rivera Says:

    Glennon should start day one and have Winston or Mariota learn the game on the sidelines and in practice. Preparation is the most important component for a Rookie NFL QB. With a new OC in Dirk Koetter, formerly being in ATL, He has mentioned how Glennon has Matt Ryan attributes . It also helps that Glennon has experience and just needs an offensive line to put up positive numbers . Either way it goes the rookie QB should sit, such as Rodgers did in GB.

  22. Kevin Says:

    So if by week 7 the Bucs are leading the division would you still make the switch? I think not. Give Mike Glennon the keys to the 2015 season unless he just flops then you make the switch. He deserves 16 games unless it’s just painfully obvious that Winston is better.

    Can’t wait for Thursday to come and the speculation to be over.

    One thing to keep in mind, the first QB drafted last year is now considered to be the worst QB taken in that draft…..just saying.

  23. fritz50 Says:

    “Glennon is going to destroy Winston in camp. Lovie won’t be able to name Winston starter or else he’ll look like a fool and incompetent. Lol. MG back in da house”

    Wishfull thinking, much? Sounds a lot like someone who hates Famous so much he’ll latch onto anything to support his delusion. Like the Bucs are going to sit The multi-million dollar 1st round pick, in favor of the guy who couldn’t beat out the slug we played last year. Besides, the majority of Bucs fans want Famous, right or wrong, and there’s no way they accept he’s a flop until they see him fail in multiple REAL games. So, like it or not, this guy’s gonna have to suffer a bunch of games with Famous, and if the guy does well, he’ll be watching a long time

    …..
    In that case then Tim Tebow is 9 and 7 as a starter with a Playoff win. Guess he’s a good QB because he is a winner.

    I agree 100%…Koetter should be calling ALL the shots on offense. If Lovie does not allow that than Lovie has learned nothing and would be a fool. But I believe he learned a lot sitting a year out. He naked last year and many don’t believe that. Many believe this is a 2 win team. Your not a two win team talent wise when your coach is trying to lose. You can’t get an accurate gauge of where they are. I’m not concerned. Now if they don’t perform well this year then yes there is a problem. I personally think they need tho either take winston or Mariotta but whoever it is I think it should be Glennon starting but whoever Koetter chooses ( hopefully) than I trust the decision no matter who is named the starter

  26. Kevin Says:

    Tanked

  27. MadMax Says:

    IMO, at least let him adjust to nfl speed. Maybe sit him the first 3-5 games. Its not like we’re playoff bound just yet (maybe next year). I have patience and am fine knowing we’re in a rebuild and at least a few years away from contending.

  28. tmaxcon Says:

    8 has proven he is a heartless loser who ducks out of bounds quicker than the bad dexter Jackson. his 5 – 13 record speaks volumes about his inability to raise the level of play of the players around him. Winston starts day 1 and has more career wins than Glennon by season end I say 6 o 7 I’m guessing. Winston will be handicapped by the same pathetic head coach 8 was but he will overcome. Winners win and losers make excuses.

  29. TheShaz Says:

    We will know by the end camp and preseason.

  30. Gator that loves the Bucs Says:

    @SPBF most rational people believe that he never would have accepted the job without say so over which QB he wants in his Offense. He could have gone to many teams.

  31. BuccaneerBonzai Says:

    I think even if Winston is better, you start Glennon. Unless you want your prized QB to get injured behind a crappy offensive line.

    Even if the Bucs fill the holes in the draft, it will take time to get them to gel. Until then, Winston would be at risk.

    Plus…with the attitude and personality he has, I think it would be a great thing if they forced him to earn the starting role.

    And who knows, maybe Mike Glennon will increase his trade value.

  32. Nole on Sat.-Bucc on Sun. Says:

    Okay I can’t get any takers on my WINSton draft pick wager,I get it in your hearts most of you know he’s on his way to the Bay. I have another friendly wager proposal for any takers. I’m betting cement shoes Glennon is out of here the second day of the draft. Give me a shout if you’re interested.

  33. Chris Says:

    That is absolutely the wrong approach. You don’t just hand a kid who’s never played a snap. You don’t declare him the guy. You make him earn that role. What if you have a situation where you declare Winston the starter and glennon plays better in TC and preseason?

    Like Ryan did and Newton. They earned it before being declared the starters. As should Winston or mariota situation.

  34. SAMCRO Says:

    8 has proven he is a heartless loser who ducks out of bounds quicker than the bad dexter Jackson. his 5 – 13 record speaks volumes about his inability to raise the level of play of the players around him.

    ____________________________________

    one fkn time he stepped out before the 1st down marker. Never has Mike ever made excuses. You sir, are a jerk. Winston if he is the opening day starter will lead the league in INT’s. They will lose more games because of his throw up for grabs mentality. NFL defense aren’t so forgiving and they will eat Winston up. woooh 6 or 7 games? WOW thats really a lot ..smh

  35. I'm a great person Says:

    Bill Parcels was the anonymous source who said he didn’t like Winston…. Go ahead Winston lovers, add him to the long list of NFL men who are idiots.

  36. Tampabaybucfan Says:

    I agree with those who say Koetter is the key to the decision…..but, we just won’t know until after the draft and perhaps even later……Glennon is certainly being shopped an will be traded for the right price.
    Keep in mind the Bucs interviewed several late round QBs…..you have to ask….why would they do that?

  37. MadMax Says:

    @Kevin, the worst QB in the draft last year was jonnyboy, not Bortles.

  38. Pickgrin Says:

    Assuming Glennon will still be a Buc after draft day – It would be dumb not to let Winston and Glennon compete for the right to start the opening game.

    Whoever looks the best during training camp and pre-season games deserves to start the season at QB. If it is a close call – then Winston should get the nod unless it is obvious that he is not ready.

  39. Barry Bryan Joel all agree Says:

    Bill Parcells is not a fan of Winston.

    Glennon is better than Bridgewater and Winston.

    Parcells,Pollian,Dungy,Gruden not big fans of Winston.

  40. JoeJoes Fungi Nails Says:

    Glennon will never let Jameis see the field….he is ready to run the team now.

    ———————————————–

    Rumor has it that the Bucs have already informed Winston that he is indeed the pick so none of this even matters.

  42. BuccaneEric Says:

    I’d start Glennon for 2015. If we start 2-8 or something, put Mariota or Winston in then.

  43. mac Says:

    Joe that is a dumb idea…

    You must let Glennon and Winston compete for the starting job… If Winston is clearly better then he should be given the job… If he struggles and Glennon looks sharp then you must send the message to Winston that he needs to earn it…

    Crowning Winston without a righteous competition would be a big mistake on multiple levels…

  44. WS99 Says:

    Winston does the unthinkable and shots a young kid. Can’t believe this wasn’t reported. Who would ever pick this guy to be the face of any franchise.

  45. road warrior Says:

    Joe thinks the Bucs should just hand Winston the rock and declare him the starting quarterback before training camp.

    Sorry Joe not your best statement. There needs to be some sign that he might be ready in training camp so he has a chance before anointing him the starter. I my opinion he will not be ready. Why put us in a losing position before the season starts. If the offensive line is not improved then Glennon is your best bet. The speed of the game is so much faster at the NFL level. Glennon is better equipped to handle it. If Winston is put in right away it could kill his confidence. He doesn’t need that.

  46. WS99 Says:

    Winston will win a Super Bowl within 5 years – George Whitifield

  47. Tampabaybucfan Says:

    Winston must be made to compete….and he’ll probably win the job …..but he needs to compete for it. It is a no-lose situation….either he competes and wins….or Glennon wins and buys Winston some time….and more important a dose of humility.

  48. ufour20 Says:

    You guys are hilarious. This article is the clearest exlplenation of why we are NOT going to pick Jemarcus.

    Lovie has to win this year or it’s safe to assume he’s out the door. So you think he’s going to pick a QB with questionable throwing mechanics, questionable feet and questionable off-field issues to lead your team to a winning season?!?!? LMAO! If you truly believe that, I have some swamp land – I mean prime real estate – I’d like to sell you.

    No rookie QB is coming in here behind a crappy line and doing anything but getting killed. Those wanting to pick Winston this year are last years Manziel homers.

  49. Owlykat Says:

    The Albatross has only one talent and that is red zone passing with his height, but he so rarely gets there because he is a sack magnet and one of the poorest third down percentages in the NFL. We need an extra third pick to get another DE a lot more than we need loser Glennon who wants only a shot at starting anyway. We can pickup an experienced QB for peanuts that is better than Glennon and knows his place as a backup and can actually teach our Franchise QB. Trade the loser this week before he makes any more bad film.

  50. WalkdaPlank Says:

    Depending on how bad the O-line is at the start of the season, I may or may not be opposed to this. If it looks anything like it does now Week 1, Jameis will end up on his ass more than half the time he drops back, and that’s not a way to develop a QB. If he improves it through the draft/2nd FA/trades and it looks serviceable, you gotta go Jameis Week 1.

  51. Tampabaybucfan Says:

    @ufour20

    “Lovie has to win this year or it’s safe to assume he’s out the door”

    It’s not safe to assuime that at all….I think the Glazers are “all-in” with Lovie….they know they just can’t keep churning coaches year after year……they will give him whatever time he needs.

    As for all the Mock Drafts…they are all assuming the same thing you are…that Lovie needs to pick the “Pro Ready” QB because he needs to win now. I don’t agree with that…but I still think Bucs pick Winston…and I hope that’s not a mistake.

    This statement is hilarious. The pick is Jameis…I know you are holding out hope that it is Marcus but you will be disappointed.

  53. Bryce Says:

    Man Im with Joe here if Winston is the pick than hes running with the ones from day one but dont read into it but MM might be the pick if Glennon doesnt get traded by draft day it could be Marcus Mariota

  54. ATrain Says:

    I think it is very interesting the posts on here and on TBO.

    On here very pro Winston

    On TBO very anti Winston.

    Boy this next season will be fun..ALot to talk about…

    I hope not the total collapse of the Bucs as I see semifans turning on the team for the QBpick.

    If the QB doesn’t fix it there will be a Fan revolt…

  55. WS99 Says:

    ATrain

    Ty for your post. I went to tbo and read the comments. I like that the posters have to login thru Facebook bc you can see their faces. Forgive if I’m wrong but it looks to me that there is a specific demographic that has a problem with the “jailbird” as one poster so eloquently put it. Luckily neither Lovie nor Licht fall within this demographics, the glazier boys maybe but not lovie or licht imo.

    Again, if after watching film you can honestly say the Mariota is better prepared to lead a group of men then to you sir I say good day.

  56. WS99 Says:

    I was watching gruden camp with hudley yesterday. Even hudley has a better command of the huddle, reading defenses and an ability to clearly articulate a play on the whiteboard.

    I would LOVE to have mm as a slot receiver on my team but I can’t have him running a power O bc he can’t do anything that is required of a qb in a power O system. I really hope he lands w the Eagles so we can see him flourish.

    I love football. I hope they both succeed.

  57. SAMCRO Says:

    WS99

    Demographics can be said about Winston also, and you don’t need to see their facebook picture. So what is your point? Bet you don’t post with your facebook pic, and if you do I bet you’re not as much of an opinionated bullspitter as you are here is this corner of the interweb with your anonymous name. …hypocrite

  58. Luther Says:

    @WS99 you are being very kind. Frankly, there are a lot of flat out racist in those posts. They are the same people who comment in the political section. I’ve seen a lot of them there for several years and have read many of their comments. I’m not surprised they don’t like Winston.

  59. WS99 Says:

    They voted for Sarah Palin, all I’m saying.

  60. Tampabaybucfan Says:

    @WS99

    I’d be careful with the generalizations….”all” voted for…..vs “most” voted for….for example….
    Besides….voting for Palin either means you are from Alaska….or you voted for McCain…..in that case…about 46%…….just sayin’

  61. Tampabaybucfan Says:

    Sorry…u didn’t say all….

  62. Luther Says:

    “Heartbeat away”

  63. Tampabaybucfan Says:

    It’s time for TBBF to point out a couple of things regarding the “racist” issue here on JBF.
    First of all, most have no idea of who the posters are….much less know them well enough to call them anything. Sure, some of the comments can be taken as racial type comments, however you would have to know the person and their true feelings to describe them as racist.
    We are now in an age of extreme PC and many comments are automatically deemed to be racist when they are not necessarily so. To compare Winston to Jamarcus Russell, for example. What makes that a racist comment? Perhaps it is because they came from the same coach or have similar characteristics from a QB standpoint….but to immediately declare it a racist comment is purely speculative.
    To call Winston a rapist is foolish and lacks any credible evidence…but you can’t describe the accusation as racist. As a matter of fact, some expressing that opinion may very well be of color.
    No, in summary….what color am I? Get my point….you can guess, but it would simply be a guess….and always will be until you meet me in person.

    Now…with all that being said….lets hope race is an issue for a very minute few in 2015…and in particular with Buc fans.

  64. WS99 Says:

    Samcro

    I only post on JBF. I don’t do FB or Twitter or ig. I have accounts but don’t post. Anything you say can and will be used against you.

    As for my opinions yes I’m opinionated but I’d like to think I’m fair and rational. Calling JW a jailbird is just ignorant as he’s never been to jail. As for the demographics it’s easy to spot a full spectrum of fans who support winston not so much for those who spit venom from their keyboards.

  65. Luther Says:

    @TBBF I respect your opinion but there are people out there who fall under that umbrella on both sides. To ignore it is naive (not calling you naive) and I don’t mind calling them out on it. I’ve seen the comments here and JBF has done a great job of banning them.

  66. ATrain Says:

    WS99
    All I can say to your reply is first I respect all intelligent responds on here.

    Winston maybe awesome on the field.

    But the concern for a lot of people is that off field and Ego thing.
    Its takes more than football ability to make it in the NFL. How many great football players are not playing because of bad decisions.

    Also with Winston if he fails how big will the fan backlash be.

    I believe you are a actual fan..Some on here are not..

    I don’t believe Winston will be as good as you do but I will not stop being a fan…Bucs Fan…I think many are just Winston fans.
    You have to look at the total package and if you don’t you end up with a problem child who can ruin your locker room.

  67. Buccfan37 Says:

    Comment in the political section? Are you talking about Morning Cup of Joe from HootersCalendar.com? I enjoy that section first off the bat Monday thru Friday, it is great.

  68. WS99 Says:

    Tbbf

    Dawg, I’m blown! I’ve never disrespected or or called you anything negative. I agree with most of your comments and have had convos with you on many occasions. Not sure if you’re feeling attacked but my comment was for Atrain who points out that tbo comments are not supportive of JW. So I went to see for myself and I encourage you to do so also.

  69. WS99 Says:

    Atrain

    To me it’s a simple choice of JW or Mariota. JW is by far the better qb for the bucs. The constant rant about off field issues is exhausting and frustrating. And in most cases is led by a few closed minded individuals that don’t have valid concern but rather hatred in their hearts.

  70. Tampabaybucfan Says:

    @WS99

    Not attacking you at all…..just urging a bit of caution….many jump to conclusions and we aren’t two of them…..

    Keep up the good work…

    I’ll be in that JW Circle of Wagons with you soon…..

    WS99,
    Can I get an AMEN?
    I’ll give it to you Brother WS99.
    AMEN!

  72. WS99 Says:

    AMEN!!

  73. Capt.Tim Says:

    I think Glennon will be traded- probably to Buffalo. Part of a package deal for us to get more picks.

    If not- you start Glennon until the bye week.
    No worries of Him winning games. If he could, he would’ve by now.

    Our O-line will have several young, new starters. It will take them a few games to gel.
    You don’t want Winston getting knocked out, while they figure out who is supposed to pick up the blitzing MLB.
    By game 7- the O-line should have gotten a rhythm.

    Then you send in the franchise QB. Sadly – Glennon will have to take the beating until then.
    Sorry kid, but you are getting the big bucks- time to finally earn them

  74. charactermatters Says:

    TMaxcon
    Peyton Manning had a 4-14 record after his first 18 starts. Troy Aikman started 3-15. I guess they were what their records said they were, garbage.

  75. Capt.Tim Says:

    Character matters-
    Did you just compare Glennon to Peyton manning and Troy Aikman?
    You should be banned from ever posting again.

    Enough is enough!

    Glennon is a bad QB.

    Winston is a once in a decade Talent.
    If you want to worry about his over blown off field incidents- far enough.
    But the lack of football knowledge displayed here sometimes is nauseating

  76. BUC IT Says:

    if its Winston….then he should start day 1 because he is PRO READY . If its Mariota then we sit him for a few weeks.

    That is not a comparison of ability at all. Only their records were compared, which shows the absurdity of claiming any players ability can be judged based on a teams record during their first year starting. Try to understand what is being compared before trying to drag out the ban hammer!!

    I remember seeing Glennon look better than Mccown in training camp last year. I would read all the articles about how much better Mccown looked than Glennon. I just didn’t see it. I then watched Mccown play like he practiced. I don’t care who starts as long as its the better player.

    Winston will be the BIGGEST BUST in the Draft. The owners will never allow Lovie to draft this LOSER. We need to address the O-LINE. GO BUCS
