Don't give up hope just yet.

Bucs vs. Panthers is the day after Christmas. 

Unless the Panthers pull a rabbit out of their hat, it will result in another loss for Rhule.

Black Monday, December 27th, watch as several coaches on the hotseat lose their jobs.

I fully expect Rhule to be one of them.

I hope so. I just don't expect it. Tepper is about as good at running a pro team as Rhule is at coaching. I have zero confidence in him to make the right call and even if he does fire him I don't expect him to make a good hire. 

I watched the first half of the game today and I really only did it because of habit. 

I won't watch a minute more until he's hired someone else and even then, it will just be out of curiosity...not excitement.

I have to believe that Tepper has seen enough. There is no evidence  that this team  is building anything.   The "brand", "culture" at this point is a joke. Tepper has to  be losing money.  1 home game left and the stadium  will likely have more Bucs fans than Panther fans.  Empty seats don't buy  anything. Tepper can sooth his ego  by blaming Hurney for this (of  course he should have gotten rid of him long before he did  and should never have let  him have anything to do  with choosing a new coach).  Tepper so far has been a failure as an owner.  He needs to get some smart football  people to teach him how to run a team.  ASAP.

I don't think we can really say if Tepper is good or bad at running a pro team, since he was patient with Rivera and gave him a very graceful exit. He made a bad hire in Rhule, it happens, nothing tells me Tepper is as bad of owner as Rhule is a coach.

    • Agreed. A healthy bit from column A (stats) and column B (film) paints the most accurate picture, which is currently that Bryce is not performing up to the standard a 1st round QB (let alone drafted #1 overall) is expected to (statistically). When we dig into the film to see why, we see that while he's having his struggles (not stepping up in the pocket, bailing out early, hesitating on some throws, making occasional bad reads, etc) the team that surrounded him last season was simply awful. Bottom 5 defense, bottom 5 OL, bottom 5 weapons... but somehow one player has to overcome ALL of that in their rookie season? Yeesh... Taking this season into consideration, he started where he left off last season and was rightfully benched. Since starting again, the team has gotten on its first winning streak in a few years and he's made good plays to keep them in the game. Is he lighting it up? Nah... but he is beginning to show the reason so many draftniks had him as QB1a for his class. Re: what the team does next season... who friggin knows anymore at this point T_T. Resign Dalton? Sign Jones? Draft somebody in the mid-to-late rounds? Go with another UFA? Maybe grab an FA that can compete with Bryce for the starting position and draft a rookie to sit and develop? Might be best of both worlds for the team, but ugh... not a fun position to still be in with question marks throughout the position group.
    • Yeah, this is basically the same as asking, "What if Bryce Young suddenly had Patrick Mahomes brain, how would he do?" It isn't happening. This ship is beyond sailed. Send him somewhere else, let us move on and him move on. 
    • Dalton is too close to starting right now. If it hadn't been for a car accident, he still would be. Switching Dalton for Jones does nothing except reduce the backup's age by a decade. One is in his NFL prime, the other is almost in his NFL grave. Not a horrible move if you're trying to improve the team. We've got to get better as a team and a lateral move like that would improve the team. The problem isn't that he's close to starting. The problem is we have a GM that signed off on BY and didn't bring in any serious QB competition for camp, a HC that said yeah, he's my guy until BY poo the bed so bad he couldn't start him, and an offense that's limited because BY can't make all the throws a normal NFL QB can.  The problem isn't that Jones could be an improvement as a backup QB. The problem is he could be better than our "franchise" QB.
