Jason Licht Laughs At QB Competition Question

July 29th, 2015

Winston Glennon

Yesterday might have been the second worst day of 2015 for the Mike Glennon Mob.

On live radio, WDAE-AM 620 to be exact, Bucs general manager Jason Licht laughed at the suggestion that Glennon would compete to start at quarterback.

Yeah, literally, Licht laughed.

Host Steve Duemig was talking with Licht about competition at linebacker with rookie Kwon Alexander, and then he asked Licht the following:

Duemig: No competition at the quarterback position?

Licht: (laughs) Well, uh, (laughs). I’m not very good at playing poker. (Beaming) You know, come out to training camp Saturday. Let’s see who’s lining up behind center. You know, give you guys some incentive to go out there.

So what was the worst day of the year for the Mike Glennon Mob. That was six weeks ago, when Lovie referred to Glennon as “backup quarterback.”

Joe sincerely hopes this ends the silly notion some cling to, that Glennon might start on opening day and will get a chance to win the job from Jameis Winston, America’s Quarterback. It’s pure fantasy.

    I listened to the interview and Glennon has not shot starting week one. But I will say he will be given the chance to start the first two preseason games mainly because they want Jameis to get as many reps as possible

  2. Strider Says:

    I laughed so hard in my car when I heard Licht ! Go Jameis Siege the day

  3. Tiny Tim Says:

    Gus, Glennon will not start the first two preseason games. You want Jameis playing with the starters in live action as much as possible going into the season. Glennon has no shot barring injury.

  4. Couch Fan Says:

    All I took from this article is that Lovie/Licht still have not learned from there past mistakes that you dont just hand out the starting job without competition.

    Good news is if we go 2-14 again these inept fools will be gone.

  5. The Buc Realist Says:

    Quick, what will be the best day for the Glennon Mob? when MG8 finally gets away from Lovie!

    Why is Joe so happy about this? Why would everyone want to see the 2 Qbs stand next to each other and have one out play and out shine the other! But Joe is giddy that once again that there is no competition! So don’t complain when Lovie Claus is gifting other starting Jobs!

    I hope Joe is still giddy when this team finishes last in the division this year!

  6. Buccfan37 Says:

    I saw maybe a couple of voices thinking MG8 would start the season. Any other QB drafted first overall on any team with MG being the existing QB, or any other QB, the first drafted pick would start. Like somone here said. you don’t draft a QB first overall and sit him when the season starts. The potential of that pick not starting sure raised a lot of hackle’s and cackle’s here.

  7. BucFan20 Says:

    Looks like the General is not convinced. He is still writing these articles to assure himself it will not happen.

  8. Eric Says:

    The last four QB’s taken number one overall all started from day one.

    Luck, Newton, Bradford, Stafford.

    You don’t draft a guy at QB that high and not start him.

    They aren’t doing anything different than the rest of the league does. Teams don’t have actual competition, Draft position plays into it, cause the personnel people saw the potential in the guy to draft him in the first place. So they are playing. Most especially the number one pick in the draft.

  9. Couch Fan Says:

    Lol Yea let’s do the same thing everybody else is doing. Thats a sure sign that we will win!! I like Winston and I like Glennon. If Glennon is better right now then he gives us the best chance to win. Most teams that draft a QB with the 1st overall pick dont usually have a quality QB on the roster already.

    You all seem so scared of competition. The last few QBs we’ve had were also just handed the job and look how thats turned out… But hey let’s not pay any attention to past mistakes, lets just do what everybody else does like mindless sheelp. I see nothing wrong with sitting the #1 pick for a few games and letting him learn if the other guy is better. It’s sad when the fans of a team are smarter than the freakin coaches.

  10. Buc1987 Says:

    There’s things Winston can learn from Mike, but of course JW is going to be the starter. Regardless if Licht is laughing and Couch and Realist don’t like it. Did you guys think otherwise?

    They’re not gifting him the starting role, when it’s already a given which QB is the better of the two.

    They bought him the whole VR machine and all. They didn’t buy it for Glennon. They’ve got JW in their Siege the Day commercial, not Mike Glennon.

    I don’t see how this has any bearing on what the outcome of the season might be, but apparently theirs two fans out there that do.

    I say worry about Lovie’s passive D before you worry about JW and the O.

  11. Buc1987 Says:

    Jameis will learn the speed of the game during preseason and have it licked by the 4th game. No worries here.

  12. Couch Fan Says:

    They’re not gifting him the starting role, when it’s already a given which QB is the better of the two.

    ————————————————-

    If thats the case then there should be no issues letting the 2 prove it out on the field rather than just gifting him the job, which you just said they arent doing…

    And your the same guy who was in love with Freeman. Your opinion on QBs mean very little to me. I rather see it for my self in a fair competition. Not the same rehashed BS of last year when everybody just knew McCown was head and shoulders better than Glennon.

  13. Buc1987 Says:

    Couch…they already know what they have in Glennon. Lots of game film.

  14. Buc1987 Says:

    So you’re comparing McCown vs Glennon to JW vs Glennon. I don’t think it’s the same at all. Btw I was not in McCown’s corner. Not one single time last season. I thought Glennon got a raw deal from TC on.

    Are you expecting some playoff team this season like others on here? Because I’m not. So I see no reason not to start JW from the get go.

  15. Couch Fan Says:

    13 whole games isn’t a lot of game film 87. Thats not even equivalent to a whole season. Anything else you’d like to say that I can disprove?

  16. Buc1987 Says:

    Couch…Are you expecting some playoff team this season like others on here?

  17. Tiny Tim Says:

    Jameis probably won the starting job in minicamp and OTAs. None of us knows because we were not there to see the practices. If you think there is not a depth chart starting on Saturday you are fooling yourself. If winston flames out, then Glennon can step in, but he probably already won the job for now so please stop with this gifting crap.

    What i do know is Licht said players on the team were texting him and Lovie to draft Winston. Some players actually made trips to their office to express this same wish. Then you had potential free agents wondering if we were going to draft winston to help with their decision making. Per Licht, he could not disclose that information for competitive reasons, but players wanted to know. None of these players (on the bucs or free agents) asked about freaking Glennon. Why is that? Because they all know Glennon is a freaking backup. Only the blind think otherwise.

  18. Couch Fan Says:

    So your saying because you dont expect a winning season that we should just give up on who gives us the best chance to have a winning season?

    Lol great logic. And yes wasn’t McCown just handed the job the same way Winston is just being handed the job in the same way Freeman was just handed the job… mistake after mistake after mistake.

    I’m not even saying Glennon should start. Yall are pulling that out of your butt cuz you have nothing else to respond with. I just want a fair competition. Stop repeating the mistakes of the past. If Winston is better then great but if Glennon is better at this point in time, he SHOULD start.

  19. CAN'T FIX IT Says:

    I HOPE GLENNON IS TRADED TO ANOTHER TEAM AND COMES BACK TO BITE TAMPA IN THE ASS,, GO GLENNON GO !!!!!!!

  20. Buc1987 Says:

    Couch…you still haven’t answered the question…

  21. Couch Fan Says:

    Do I expect a playoffs this season? No. Do I think its a possibility? Of course. Every team has a chance to get to the playoffs. Teams suprise every year. Why not the Bucs this year?

    But that has nothing to do with anything we are talking about. If you think we should start Jameis simply because YOU dont expect us to go anywhere this year, then there is nothing else to talk about because that is just silly. I rather go with the better QB that gives us a chance to win now. Not next year. There may not even be a next year for Licht/Lovie if they have anything similiar to a season like last.

  22. Buc1987 Says:

    4-6 wins tops. That’s my prediction. I see why some would like the competition because of what happened last season, but like others have stated. #1 overall draft picks don’t ride the pine for a few games to watch the speed of the game.

    In my mind and I’ve stated this several times. JW could have skipped college and went to straight to the pros. That couldn’t happen of course, but if he did then he rides the pine for a bit.

    Come week 1. Fans are expecting to see JW under center, not Mike Glennon. Even if the season turns to crap, fans are expecting to see Jameis Winston. Some of them bought season tickets for that very reason.

    By Freeman’s 3rd game in 2013. I was saying put the rookie in, I’m sick of this shyte. While the remaining Freemanites argued with me on it. All I said was I’ve got season tickets and I’d rather root for the rookie than watch this clown any longer.

  23. Buc1987 Says:

    BTW my dad stopped watching pro football 20 years ago. His reason? Because the shiny new toy always gets gifted the starting job. He said it’s all about who gets paid the most gets the starting job whether or not he’s better than the other guy.

    So I see your point, but that’s just not how it works.

  24. The Buc Realist Says:

    I just do not see the issued of the 2 Qb’s standing up in front of the public and during 2 training camp days, and 1 preseason game. And having Jamies outshine his competition. Everyone would be happy. Competition complete, the king will be crown!!

    We just do not trust Lovie Claus, and at this point just give us a peek of it, so we all can be on the same page!!!

  25. Couch Fan Says:

    Again I’m not saying Glennon should start. Not sure why you are riding that so harshly. Personally I think Winston is and will be better. And I’m right along with everyone else expect to see Winston starting game 1. But I was hoping Lovie actually learned from his mistakes and makes him earn the job instead of just handing him the job when there is viable competition from Glennon (which most teams cant say that about when they are drafting QB #1) is a mistake. Thats all I’m saying. Let the best QB win.

    And no I dont buy that Winston won the starting job in OTAs. As joe would say, in underwear football. If thats the case then I will lose even more confidence in Lovie. Training camp and pre-season is when jobs are won and lost. I just want the best for my Bucs. Unfortunately I just dont think this team is going anywhere with Lovie calling the shots. He seems more incompetent than Schiano at this point.

  26. tickrdr Says:

    Posted previously:

    Glennon started five games last year, and threw for 1296 yards, 9 TDs and 6 INTs.

    Extrapolated over a whole 16 game season, that works out to 4147 yds, 29TDs and 19 INTs. That was with no offensive coordinator, a terrible OL cobbled together after trading or releasing better players, ME 13 out for some games, a poor running game etc., etc. In 18+ games, he now has 29 TDs and only 15 INTs.

    Those should be easy targets for “America’s Quarterback” to surpass. After all he was the leader of the best team in college football that had 29 players drafted by the NFL over the last 3 years, whose backup QB was able to beat a ranked team in his absence.

    But we ALL know there will be NO competition.

  27. Bubba Says:

    They like Glennon but believe that Winston has more pure talent. Its not that hard to figure out. Everyone knows though that you need two good quarterbacks.

    Glennon did enjoy throwing to Evans and Moss when they were practicing. So there is that.

  28. Buc1987 Says:

    The Buc Realist …..Are you the same guy that thunks Lovie won’t be here much longer?

    If so then what’s the problem with starting the rookie?

    You’re the last person who should be chiming in on whether or not to start Glennon seeing how you’re not expecting much this season yourself.

  29. Buc1987 Says:

    Couch…so basically what you just said was I expect L&L to lie to the fans and tell them that’s there’s competition at the QB spot.

    ———————————–

    Not all jobs are won in OTAs, but you can set your depth chart. Once the depth chart is set, it is up to the backup (at any position) to outshine the guy in front of him. If he can’t then he stays the back up. Something tells me that Glennon will not outshine Jameis and if it is a tie, you still go with Jameis because he is the #1 pick. Its as simple as that.

  32. tdtb2015 Says:

    Who did Winston beat last year? Ahhh, Oh that’s right non-NFL defenses.

    Jameis seems to be he right fit. But lets be real. Has he beaten a Dick LeBeau defense?

    Oh that’s right Glennon did last year in Pittsburg!

    I want to finish 2015 with Winston at QB. But lets start with the best option to win the next regular season home game. As a fan, I want that mentality on the coaching staff. The h@ll with the norm, if it does not fit. We have adults earning money to coach this team. Right?

    Lets win this first game with the best QB available. If Winston is not ready, he is not the best option to win.

    ———————————————-

    If thats the case I will be fine with that. I have no issues with Winston being #1 right now as long as Glennon gets his chance. Last year Glennon got 0 reps with the #1’s. There was no competition to speak of. This year I feel its going to be more of the same. Like I said I just want a fair competition and the best QB to lead the team. I think its a real possibility that Glennon can help us win right now more than Jameis can while he learns the pro game. But I do believe Winston is and will be better. I want to see it though rather than trust Lovie’s judgement. We’ve all seen how great his QB judgement is(n’t).

    ———————————

    Why does Glennon need reps with the ones? If winston is playing better, then there is no need for Glennon to split reps with Winston with the ones. Winston ceiling is much higher than Glennon and you are wasting the team’s and Winston’s time by not developing that talent. Unless Winston falls on his face, he should be playing period. Glennon is a safe Qb so all these stats people are writing about mean squat. Because of the 29 tds he threw, how many were game changers? Maybe 2. How many game changing plays has he made period? He does not make plays. He takes what the defense give him which is fine as a backup. You need a QB to make plays like Luck does and like Winston will do or has the potential to do.

  35. Tampa Tony Says:

    Tickrdr-nice stats but what about wins?

  36. Buc1987 Says:

    4-6 wins tops.

    The homer in me tells me Winston’s going to prove me wrong and they win 8. If that happens, I’ll be fine and dandy.

  37. Couch Fan Says:

    How can you determine if Winston is playing better if you dont give Glennon a shot with the 1’s? You expect him to look better while playing with lesser talent?… And you can develop talent without thrusting him into the lineup.

    Just because Winston has more talent doesnt make him the better player. And it’s not wasting time if you are truely trying to figure out who gives you the better chance to win.

    Glennon has done more than Winston in the NFL so your point makes no sense and your just coming off as a hater. I’m not into annointing rookies or career back ups as saviors. Let them earn their keep. Glennon we know wont lose us games. Winston we have no idea what he can do yet at the pro level. All those INTs he had in college could cost us many games in the pros. We simply dont know yet which is why we need to see who the better qb is.

    Are you reading Tickrdr’s posts? If Winston doesnt match Glennon’s stats are you prepared to call Glennon the better QB or will you simply give Winston the pass that you refuse to give Glennon?

  38. Tampabaybucfan Says:

    Why wouldn’t anyone want Glennon to do well….well enough at least to compete…..the better the value and competition never made anything worse (except Josh Freeman)…..

    I wouldn’t be at all unhappy if Glennon lit it up in pre-season and at least raised the question…..sure, it is preferable and more likely Wiinston will start day one….but we shouldn’t rejoice over Glennon’s automatic back seat role.

    ———————

    F#$% glennon’s stats. I have told this board many times that Manning rookie stats were not better than Glennon’s but Manning was the better rookie QB period. You saw franchise potential with manning throwing 28 ints. You have never seen franchise qb potential in Glennon regardless his TD/INT ratio. Why? Because he is a freaking game manager and not a game changer and there is a BIG difference. I really do not understand why this is hard for some of you to understand. You say Glennon has done more in the NFL. My question is what exactly has he done? Name me three plays that stand out to you that made you say wow? Stats do not tell the whole story. I am sorry you guys have not figured that out yet. Glennon is right where he needs to be on the freaking bench holding a clip board until needed.

  40. Buc1987 Says:

    Tiny Tim …to sum it up. Glennon has no “IT” factor.

  41. Tiny Tim Says:

    Glennon we know wont lose us games.

    ————————–

    You mean like running out a yard short of the first down twice? Yea, he won’t lose us games you say, but we also know he damn sure not going to win us any games because he is a game manager and not a game changer. Why can’t you understand that?

  42. Couch Fan Says:

    Lol So in your mind that 1 play, that you repeat over and over again, cost us the whole entire game?.. Keep trying, again that makes no sense.

    And rookies dont usually win you games either and since Winston has never played in the NFL before its not safe to assume he can win or lose you any games. Your only adding to my point that it should be an open and fair competition. May the best QB win, but not with Incompetent Lovie in control!

  43. UnicornWithRainbowsOutHisArse Says:

    I know a fairy tale when I see one. Glennon as a starter over Jameis…I wouldn’t bet my longest horn on it.

  44. Eric Says:

    I would follow the example of the way Luck, Newton and Stafford were handled.

    Thrown into the fire starting right away.

    Or, rather than to go with the successful trend of knowledgeable NFL people, the bucs could not start Jameis right away based on the learned advice of Joebucsfan.com posters.

    ——————————

    No, that one play is the play that sums up Glennon aka game manager. I am still asking you to tell me what did he do to win that same game? Is it the five yard check down on third down when we needed 8 yards because that is what the defense gave him? Or is it sliding one yard short of the first down when we are in the midst of 8 straight three and outs?

    Rookies don’t win games? Tell that to Luck, Wilson, Big Ben, Matt Ryan, Dalton, RG3 etc who all went to the playoffs in their rookie year. So no, I am not making your point. Your point is pointless.

  46. Couch Fan Says:

    So basically your theory is 1 play that wasnt even a costly turnover defines a QBs career. Well if thats the case then every QB in NFL history is garbage. Or does that only work when for Glennon?

    But you say my point in pointless…

    and btw I said “And rookies dont USUALLY win you games”

    but hey go head and keep pointing out the exceptional QBs because it is a certainty that Winston will be just as good as all of them his rookie year right?

    Keep making my point for me, no need for me to say anything else with you on my side.

  47. JMN Says:

    Of course Glennon has no chance of starting. He is leftover meat from a previous regime. All chips are in on Winston for Licht/Lovie. Glennon had his chance.

  48. NJ BucFan Says:

    @CouchFan

    I agree with letting them compete, but to say our rookie QBs have always been handed starting jobs is completely false.

    Freeman didn’t even get first team reps his first offseason and wasn’t even looked at to start until after 2 other qbs failed miserably.
    Glennon got some reps but Freeman was given his last chance to prove himself one way or the other before Glennon got the chance to start.
    The only QB gifted anything was McCown and Lovie basically admitted that was a mistake when he cut him.

    This is the biggest reason Glennon deserves another shot to compete though, because his most important offseason in terms of development was lost to the McCown Madness.

    Like many have said, Glennon so far has only showed he is capable of being a game manager. But how much of that is his fault, something tells me that both Schiano and Lovie have had short leashes on their QB/OC combo the last 2 years, preffering them to be game managers and let the D/ST try to win them games.

    ————————————

    No it showed his football IQ and his heart and his teammates saw it and that is why they text licht and lovie to draft winston because of his IQ and his never say die attitude. Sorry you keep getting confused. And for the third time, please tell of all of the “great” plays Glennon has made. You still haven’t done that.

    Thats why you play Winston because he has exceptional traits like those guys coming out of college and therefore he starts day one. Some experts say his exceptional talent is only second to Luck. Do you understand now? Its safe to say that Glennon is not exceptional so keep him holding the clip board. And you even more clueless if you think I am making your point for you. Nobody with reading comprehension skills will read both you and my post and think our takes are remotely the same. I can see why you are confused and would think that way though because you think also are confused and think Glennon has the it factor and is a franchise QB. Classic!!!

  51. Jena W Says:

    Good Grief People!!! It’s very plain and simple.

    Bucs drafted Jameis with the hope/intention of having him as a long term FRANCHISE quarterback. Yes, he has not played a single minute in the NFL but riding the bench, watching someone else play his position isn’t going to make him more comfortable/capable with the ‘speed of the game’. PLAYING is the only thing that will do that. You have to play Jameis and let him learn.

    JW has proven again and again in his college years that he learns FAST! He picks up the play of the opposing team and adjusts. Glennon doesn’t have that capacity. Of course you want a good backup QB and Glennon is decent. Still you DON’T sit your future franchise QB if he’s not injured and hope he learns by watching someone whom the front office didn’t think could carry the team to begin with! He MUST have all the reps he can get to build his relationship with his offense. How can those of you pushing reps and game starts for Glennon not understand that all that does is increase the amount of time it will take JW and his offense to jell?

    Freeman was not the number one pick in the draft.

    apples and oranges.

    87

    Jameis will learn the speed of the game during preseason and have it licked by the 4th game. No worries here.

    And don’t forget the new simulator 87 and others worried about Fameis progress. You trust your life everytime you get on a plane to somebody who learned most if not all of his emergency procedures in a simulator.

    No reason Fameis won’t have seen ALL the NFL defenses before the first pre season game…unless they don’t wish to overwhelm him.

  57. StPeteBucsFan Says:

    BTW MGMer’s. I agree MG8 is a talented QB who could start on SOME teams…take the Cleveland Browns. But he has limitations…COMPLETE lack of mobility that will prevent him ever achieving greatness.

    Competent NFL QB YES!!! Championship QB..NAH. He’s the perfect backup and I hope we can keep him. I would NEVER trade him for a 3rd pick or less. He has genuine value for the Bucs.

    Let’s compare win rates over the past two years and see who should start. Or let’s look at how many comeback wins each engineered. Oh, what about first down percentage on third down. Or how many other players were picked ahead of each before they were picked. Or if that isn’t fair ask which one earned a national championship and a Heisman when they were a college QB.
    Why don’t we just let Winston play 19 NFL games and see how many touchdowns and total yards he will throw and then compare him to the results of Albatross Glennon. That should be the fairest way to compare them. When Pittsburg’s Super Bowl winning QB was thrust into starting as a Rookie I believe he won a lot more games than Glennon. Winston has the same potential. He will start! Get over it Glennon Mob!!!

  61. Owlykat Says:

    Anyone who is hoping Glennon goes to another team and comes back and bites the Bucs in the ass is no Bucs Fan; just a Glennon Fan, and he needs to go with Glennon where ever he goes and watch Glennon ride the pine there too, after he drags down that team like he did the Bucs. I will say good riddance to them both.

  62. Owlykat Says:

    I don’t recall any of the Glennon Mob members, Joe, complaining that Shiano never allowed anyone from competing with Glennon for the backup QB job in the 2013 Preseason. He gave sack magnet Glennon by far more reps than any other QBs on the roster then to guarantee it was not a fair competition, and made him the backup QB despite the third QB was an experienced QB and had the highest completion rate of all three QBs in preseason. Glennon nor his fans have no right to complain now when the shoe is on the other foot!

    I like Glennon 2.

  64. Trubucfan22 Says:

    There is no competition, because Winston already won it. Even in college the organization could tell that Jameis is the better qb, by a lot, Not even close. FFS that’s why they drafted him.

  65. Trubucfan22 Says:

    You draft a player #1, if you think you already have someone better than him on your roster. You people are crazy if you ever thought Glennon had a shot in a competition. The only glimmer of hope would have been if Jameis was struggling with the playbook and needed more time to develop. But dude came from a pro style offense and is damn near a genius when it comes to football. Sorry MGM, time to pack your bags and GTFO out of Tampa.

  66. Danati74 Says:

    glennon has played for 2 years. His stats look pretty good. His winning percent is far below average. If Glennon was or is so good MOB why did we draft a QB #1? Its time to get behind Jameis, its time to get behind ur team. Its a new day in TB!!!

    Titans Name Mariota Starting QB

    The Titans have done it right with stating before the start of training camp that their 1st round QB pick (#2 overall in the draft) Will Be Their Starting QB!

    ‘Despite the learning curve, Whisenhunt’s decision to name a starter this early makes sense on a number of fronts. For one, it ends any potential controversy at the position, which can quickly become a distraction for a team, especially as players find themselves fielding questions about one position. For another, it means Mariota won’t need to share the first-team reps this preseason, giving him a better chance to build chemistry with the starters.

    It’s Mariota’s team now. Whisenhunt and Co. weren’t interested in pretending otherwise.’

    Anyone need any other reasons why the Bucs shouldn’t do the same with Winston?
