It doesn’t matter how the season ends really. The usual midseason slump, which is the most consistent thing about Todd Bowles coaching is unacceptable. Being the team in the playoffs every year that really doesn’t deserve to be there is no thrill.
Go with the record based on the talent we have, not just ‘getting to the playoffs’. Winning the NFC South means nothing, it just makes us the best of the worst. That’s not what Tampa Bay is about! That’s not the culture that Tom Brady brought here. Fire this loser!!
FACTS
Since 2022 the Bucs are 34-29 in Regular season games under Bowels.
From 2009 to 2019 the Bucs had only 2 winning seasons, 0 playoff births
From 1983-1996 the Bucs had 0 winning seasons, 0 playoff births, several no.1 picks!
You spoiled rotten people. Your complaining about 34-29 and 3+ consecutive division championships… you don’t have a clue what its been like to be a Bucs fan, or you wouldn’t sound like a Gooberville citizen that the Big Dog on WDAE so rightfully coined. I don’t care how weak the division has been, 2023 was a rebuilding year!! playoffs. 2024 and 2025 continue to stock weapons, but not fast enough for you people.
I don’t think Bowles should be held to a different standard then Dungy or Gruden. One built the culture & the other pushed us to the top and both were let go. It was a huge mistake letting Coen go. We all knew it and watched as the whole debacle was mishandled. Year after year, player after player it’s the same story. The same problems plague this team. I see no improvement throughout the season or from year to year. In fact, our players seem to regress. Let’s take Winfield for example, does he seem better this year? Does he seem to have mastered the defensive scheme? Does any defensive player seem to have mastered the scheme? Is our offense better? What has improved?
I’ve been a Bucs fan since the beginning. I suffered through many, many losing seasons. I would NOT fire Bowles or Licht. Especially not after a season where they will never field their starting lineup.
Yes, Bowles has made some questionable decisions, but who the hell doesn’t make questionable decisions? Bowles has actually done remarkably well considering how much he’s had to deal with: the most injuries I have ever seen on a Bucs team, a rookie OC/first time play caller, too bored to make a play Zyon, Hassan who?, SVD (who is admittedly improving), and sadly, an aging LVD who just doesn’t look like the LVD of old.
So yeah, I need to see a couple of losing seasons with a mostly healthy roster, and players who aren’t bored before I send the HC packing.

Losing Liam Cohen is proving to be a huge loss for the Bucs.

Hiring Bowles was a huge mistake. Right the ship. Fire him.
