Evans took real shots at Baker, Bowels, and Licht in the end.
“I did my research on a lot of teams that I was looking at. I was looking at contenders, guys with good quarterbacks obviously”
“I’ve always been a fan of Kyle. He just talked about how he sees me in this offense and it just made me even happier. It was a no-brainer really after I got on the phone with him.”
“And then I talked to John and it solidified it for me.”

Mike was gone once Bowles was retained.

4-13 next season. Stock up on brown paper bags.

Ira is a nut job.

If I remember correctly the first info I saw here on JBF about Evans, he said something regarding the way the 49ers “handled their business on the field”.

Think i just had the most perfect mock:
Traded down from 15 to 18 with the vikings, and our 77 for their 49 (they wanted cb Terrel)….we got
G Ioane
LB Jacob Rodriguez
Edge Malachi Lawrence
QB Taylen Green
CB Ephesians Prysock
TE Marlin Klein
CB Domani Jackson
That would be great imo….

Me and old Junebug listened to our favorite podcast outside enjoying building a nice raised bed for our garden. Concrete blocks. 30+ pounds apiece. 80 of them. Wife convinced me how much work it will save us. Easy for her to say. Anyway, I really like the word “juice” to describe what this defense needs more of. And what I ended up thinking was what a good nickname that would make for Jacob Rodriguez. JRod or Juice? I can hear the fans chant-as JRod knocks yet another ball loose or jumps a pass for yet another pick… Juice! Juice! Juice!! Sometimes when I over exert myself, I can get a little giddy for a moment. But I heard it. JuiceJuiceJuiceJuiceJuice……..

I wish Mike Evans nothing but the best (just not against the Bucs).

Geno712 picked up on something I hadn’t previously picked up on or heard mentioned much yet…
It wasn’t just a diss/backhand/indirect slap/shots fired/implications (whatever words you wanna use) at Baker, or Bowles, or RayJay, or Bucs Fanbase, it was at Jason Licht too. It was the Whole Nine (Ten?) Yards and all of it.
“And then I talked with Kyle and JOHN, and it solidified it for me”

Go Mikey. Win with great coaching. You should still be a Buc but the Bucs GM has turned idjit . Plus, it’s doubtful Kyle speaks in a mumble through clenched teeth while eating a double beef burrito.

Ira loves Bowles. He wants more 8-9 seasons and no playoff wins. Never understand the reason to misrepresent Ira. –Joe
Those free buffets and coconut doughnuts are enough for him.
What an absolute fraud.

Shady Mcoy is a poor influence on Mike Evans. He rode the coattails to win a few late career Super Bowls and he talks a lot of trash. He’s divisive, and I don’t care for his whole persona. He’s “Shady”

After the 3rd and 28 fiasco, Bowles lost the team AND Mike Evans. Mike can’t see this team getting past the first round.
So Logan Hall was let go and Greg Gaines remains unsigned. A’Shawn Robertson was brought in, so it’s likely that he will play at least run downs. With Gaines still unsigned, it appears that Elijah Roberts will back up Kancey. Roberts played OK despite only being picked at #157. The Bucs still need a beastly DT (maybe at #15?) to compete with Kancey and A’Shawn for a starting role. I see DT or Edge at #15.

I really don’t care what baker does to try to motivate his self, nobody is scared of him on the field. Idk why people lawd over him like that, the chip on his shoulder talk is just tiring at this. Baker ain’t the guy we need a franchise qb badly not a guy with little man syndrome that runs around like a sprayed cockroach he’s more comical to watch than anything lol.
