Raheem The Dream Again In 2010

December 16th, 2009

Jermaine Phillips has launched a personal campaign to try to save Raheem the Dream's job.

Joe is so knee-deep in football thought and daydreaming about a scantily-clad Rachel Watson, Joe tends to forget the looming political campaigns of 2010.

Though mid-term elections are not quite 11 months away, Bucs linebacker safety Jermaine Phillips has already started a campaign.

Raheem the Dream Again In 2010

Maybe sensing that the Bucs head coach is on dangerously thin ice, Phillips has begun beating the drum that Raheem the Dream needs to return next season, so reports eye-RAH! Kaufman of the Tampa Tribune.

“Raheem is going to be just fine … just bear with him,’’ Phillips said Monday. “Before the season starts, we fire our offensive coordinator (Jaff Jagodzinski), so you don’t get a full training camp with the offense you want to run. Then we’re playing a new defense that’s not working. Since Raheem has taken over, you’ve seen the defense is playing better. It’s night and day. We’ve got a rookie quarterback (Josh Freeman), so we know we’re going to have some bumps on the road. You tell me what rookie quarterback hasn’t had growing pains? You can’t judge Raheem off one season. When he got hired, a lot of the good coordinators were already taken. What do you expect him to do? We all make mistakes. Raheem saw his mistakes and tried to correct them.’’

Maybe Phillips isn’t aware, but his campaign to save his head coach may have only a shelf life of two weeks.

    If the Bucs over the next three games give another non-effort like they did against the Jets then he should be fired. One more game like that and it will be clear the players quit on Raheem.

    I have been a fan of Phillips since his rookie preseason games…….
    however neither should be back next year
