Lovie Smith... OUT?!?!

[heelsrule1988]

Wow!!!

[Daeavorn]

I surely thought they would give him another year... He tripled their wins from last year and almost got to the playoffs! Did I miss something?

[R0CKnR0LLA]

damn, I was hoping he'd be the Bucs HC forever. 2 easy gift Ws every season

And that's why their organization is trash and always will be. Hope Winston turns into a Brees-like player and goes to some AFC team. Absolutely hilarious. I'm not a big fan of Lovie but firing a coach after 2 seasons is ridiculous.

Holy Crap!  Darn sure didn't see that coming!

[Cookie Lyon]

Wow! I didn't see this coming.

Oh well.

[CarolinaXblue]

I cannot believe this. How could you fire a guy who has the capability to put together a great defense and has Jameis Winston in his corner? Not that I think Winston is great, but he will be good.

[IceWhiteice]

Lovie is a great coach, I guess ownership and him was on different pages. Lots of politics in the game now. 

[TheRumGone]

Such a stupid move

[SIGCHI222]

Didn't see that coming.  All the talk was they were going to emulate our formula for success.  Part of that formula is patience.

 

Oh well...

 

[Luke Cage]

Awesome.  Let chaos reign.

[Salvo]

So much for modeling after the Panthers...

[Apotheosis]

This has to be a prank. Someone wrote an article a week ago about how the Bucs were using Carolina as their blueprint. I cant see why you would get rid of a coach that seemed to be turning the team in the right direction with a good qb.
