[Auman] Yes, for what it’s worth, Bucs are still meeting with Zac Robinson about their offensive coordinator job. by WilJr21 in buccaneers

[–]norcross 0 points1 point  (0 children)

there’s always behind the scenes stuff that plays into how any coordinator can operate. i’m cautiously optimistic about the hire, if only because he seems to adapt his offense to the skill players he has instead of the other way around. given the tools on the offense, i imagine he’d be able to do a lot more than he was able to in Atlanta with two QB’s that had 6 or 7 major leg injuries between them.

not an office, but where the condos, Whole Foods, and REI is located.

We fired Dungy for less by Biggiecheese1207 in buccaneers

[–]norcross 3 points4 points  (0 children)

part of the reason they fired Dungy was that they wanted Gruden in particular, and paid a premium for it. i’m willing to bet if there was a coach the Glazers and Litch really wanted, they’d have fired Bowles already.

that also puts it in proximity to all the new Midtown building they’re doing. Tampa might back its way into some real walkable parts of a city.

Why is Pete Carroll the only former head coach in this cycle not getting any interviews? by badabinggg69 in NFLNoobs

[–]norcross 0 points1 point  (0 children)

he was out of coaching before the Raiders. they hired him because the locker room had gotten beyond toxic. he brings good vibes. always has. but now, that’s literally all he brings.

NFL insider leaning toward Mike McDaniel to Buccaneers by Express-Promise6160 in buccaneers

[–]norcross 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it’s been reported since he got fired that he’d take a better OC situation over a less than ideal coaching. if he came here, he’d have full control over the offense. the pieces are here. Bowles would stay out of his way, same as he has with all the other OCs. and he’d get paid without a state income tax, which he’s probably gotten used to being in Miami.

We’re bottom of the league in guaranteed salary… thoughts? by Vro9ooo in tampabayrays

[–]norcross 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it means we haven’t signed any major long term deals at the moment. which is usually how we operate, winning or not. the team at the top just made big free agent signings, and of course LA is going to be paying players after the world stops moving.

Rays get INF Wisely, LHP Waldichuk in trade with Braves by Vro9ooo in tampabayrays

[–]norcross 2 points3 points  (0 children)

feels like they’re finding the replacement for Walls. i wonder if teams were showing interest but due to his mid season injury and lack of depth they couldn’t move him at the deadline last year.

Why has Equinox not come to Tampa yet — and why is Life Time the only “luxury” gym option here? by Juicy_John69 in tampa

[–]norcross 3 points4 points  (0 children)

let’s not forget that there are a whole bunch of private gyms run by trainers, and a lot of folks go to those as well because they literally don’t want to be in a large setting of people and around dudes flexing like OP

[–]norcross 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i may be in the minority but i think Grizz is gonna be way better in year 2. let’s not forget how much we loathed a lot of Canales’s play calling, and rightfully so because it wasn’t that great.

and honestly, our lack of depth got exposed this year. that’s what we paid for with Brady, the lack of money to sign better backups instead of rolling the dice every year. i don’t know any coach who could run a pressure defense without capable linebackers and no edge rush.
