“Sound The Alarm”
December 14th, 2022
You hear that air raid siren? That has been set off by a popular sports television and radio personality in New York City.
The siren is to warn Bucs fans that after Adam Schein watched the Bucs show up to San Francisco unprepared and lethargic, almost as if they didn’t want to play football, Schein believes it is a very real possibility the Bucs don’t even with the putrid NFC South, as he typed for NFL.com.
Schein assessed the panic level of nine NFL teams and believes the Bucs are in a group where the air raid sirens should be unmistakable.
With Brock Purdy making his first NFL start, and despite the fact that San Francisco lost Deebo Samuel to injury midway through the second quarter, the 49ers destroyed Brady and the Bucs, 35-7. Tampa Bay’s quarterback is indeed the greatest of all time, but he’s been subpar this season. The Bucs’ offensive line has been worse. And Mike Evans hasn’t scored since Week 4, with the aforementioned O-line costing him a 68-yard touchdown via a holding penalty on Sunday. Meanwhile, Tampa Bay’s defense is an injury-riddled, inconsistent unit.
The only reason these Buccaneers aren’t cooked is that they just so happen to play in an embarrassingly bad NFC South. They could win the division with a losing record, but don’t expect Brady to provide any postseason magic.
As Schein noted, the popular phrase meandering through the NFL is “you don’t want to play Tom Brady in the playoffs.”
After Sunday’s effort in NoCal, Schein says, oh yes you do.

Yeah this is not good. I’m expecting an L against the Bengals. Honestly I haven’t seen anything to show we could win anymore games. I certainly hope we do, but my expectations are very low. This is more disappointing than the hardknocks year.

Tom Brady is a coach on the field and so much more, but Todd Bowles has managed to destroy a really good football team in just one year. The Bucs squandered Brady’s last year in Tampa by putting Bowles in charge. He did the same thing to the Jets. The morale around the Bucs has to be low. The season is almost over and Bowles still doesn’t know what kind of team the Bucs are. The Bucs will have trouble attracting free agents with Bowles in charge. He was a good assistant coach but not much of a head coach. He needs to go!!!

Just wanna say this. Without Donavan Smith holding on that play Brady gets blown up. Evens never catches that ball because it’s never thrown.

Jeffrey – thought that same thing when I saw it.

Adam Schein … ‘Tampa Bay’s quarterback is indeed the greatest of all time, but he’s been subpar this season. The Bucs’ offensive line has been worse. And Mike Evans hasn’t scored since Week 4, with the aforementioned O-line costing him a 68-yard touchdown via a holding penalty on Sunday. Meanwhile, Tampa Bay’s defense is an injury-riddled, inconsistent unit.’
THAT’S probably the best synopsis of the Bucs’ performance to date that I’ve read.

The good part is our Sundays will be freed up for years to come.

What you see here is ‘The Bowzo-Lovie Connection’.

Wow, I wonder who thought TB was all the sudden become Lamar Jackson
The GM should be toast for the way he structured this team – everyone in the world knows TB can’t move and needs a clean pocket from G to G
We get Jensen hurt, don’t replace Marpet with anything close to his level and resigned DSmith that we all know is sub par
The HC is a complete tool. The OC should have been canned. A month ago at minimum and the GM has sat idly by
All of them need to go and we need a fresh slate in the FO and coaching staff
The BA era is over and finished with his “pupils” destroying our team

Schein is stating the Obvious, We have 1 chance for this seaon …. It is called a Bill Parcells move…. Bowls will never do it he doesnt have the b@lls. You have to release 1 or 2 a big names who arent playing….. Need a big shake UP in the locker room…. People need to be fired…. players and …. coaches

Jeffery you’re wrong, go back and watch Leverette was right there and help out. There was no.need for it, he just had to slow the defender down.
Atlanta favored by 4 over Saints.
Rookie of the week Brock Purdy thanks to the Bucs D.

Don’t see us making the playoffs.

Casuals are just now catching on to how godawful this team really is.
If this coaching staff is here next season, my fanhood-since-the-start won’t be.
It’s that bad. Losing with talent is far, far worse than losing without talent. And no heart, and it’s just abysmal and disheartening.
Thanks and congrats Todd and Byron. You accomplished the near impossible.

No balls Boles s*c*ks. Will never be a good head coach. Arians S*c*is for abandoning the team!
December 14th, 2022 at 7:43 am
Arians and Licht must not escape blame for what they did to us!
They looked out for Bowles and Lefty their homeboys, and look what it has cost us.
Our team is badly broken, and sometimes things must get worse, before they get better.
I never watch Schein to be honest, but he is right in his assertation that Tampa Bay may not even MAKE the playoffs.
Like Cobraboy just said, to lose w/o talent is forgivable, but to lose with talent takes a special kind of stupid.

joe you got me good…

I heard the Glazers flew out to watch the 49er game. It’s been reported that they were furious after the game. Good! We all are furious. I’m sorry but Bowles just doesn’t inspire and his decision making is putrid.
Glazers need to blow this whole thing up immediately following this season, which will be sooner rather than later.
December 14th, 2022 at 11:35 am
After the season the Glazers need to clean house starting at the top.

What he said is wrong. How dare he. He was just being nice. if he said what he really believed, then all hell would break loose. Fore byron, bench brady and move on what they have a hot at the playoffs.

The thing that upsets me most if the Bucs lose this week is that so many people on this site will post all of the same drivel that they posted this week. Sigh.
