[Apple Roof Cleaning Tampa]

Anyone SEEN the Tampa Bay Buccaneers 2009 Schedule ?
Good LORD what a TOUGH Schedule :shock:
The game the Bucs play in LONDON is counted as a home game :mad:

Wait... how is that fair. That means we don't really get 8 home games?

NOW you are getting it :)
It is NOT fair !
We have a REALLY tough schedule playing the NFC East so much.
Washington is MUCH Improved - The NY Giants are awesome - and Philly is always TUFF.

IF we have a winning record this year - we will be LUCKY :confused:

Yes, I agree... with the regime change this will certainly be a building year. I am still not sure the head coach pick was the best move. They should have looked around a bit more at least before doing it.

And, as much as I love Barber and Brooks and a few of the other veterans it is really time to put some young blood in some of those positions. Starting at QB. You can't do the Gruden QB shuffle and expect to develop a offense that works together.

Lets be real ?
They QUIT in the last 1/4 of the Season.
Losing to OAKLAND ?

AGE plays a BIG factor - we GOT Old.

I think the Bucs will be OK after THIS year ?
But our Schedule is Murder this year :-(

The Defense quit. I think Kiffen made a major mistake announcing that he was leaving. From that point on the D was crap. It was a big distraction. He should have waited to the season was over to announce he was leaving.

You are right... last year... heck for several season the Bucs couldn't finish. They faded in games in the 4th qtr that they had well in hand and they always faded at the end of the season... losing games to much inferior teams. Perhaps part of that was complacency. I don't know.

LOL - it was called "Ronde Barber getting run over" :p
You could SEE it - he wanted NO part of the big Carolina Back and his Lethal Stiff Arm.

You know - a lot od sports are mental.
No one could beat Mike Tyson ?
But ONCE he got beat - everyone started beating him.

Once tape showed Ronde getting run over - even OASKLAND did it TOO.

Sorry - Ronde MUST go !!

Word is out he is OLD and SOFT :!:

Teams WILL exploit him - from now on !
