BUCCANEERS RUMORS & GOSSIP
Greg Schiano: “We have a starting quarterback.”
Since the Bucs drafted North Carolina State quarterback Mike Glennon, several have attempted to label the quarterback competition between he and Josh Freeman as a controversy. Speaking to the National Football Post, head coach Greg Schiano emphasized that the team already has a starting quarterback. Look, I’m not against that (Glennon winning the starting job). We have a starting...
Buccaneers defense an embarrassment, can they change?
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers defense led by Lavonte David, Mason Foster and Ronde Barber were horrific in 2012.
Ranking 29th in the league in sacks and dead last in passing yards allowed, they were an embarrassment, or were they?
The Buccaneers finished number one against the run allowing only 1,320 yards on the ground and only 3.5 yards per carry. Opposing teams averaged only 82...
Rookie backup QB Mike Glennon aims for the driver's seat
Tampa Bay Buccaneers rookie QB Mike Glennon has big plans for himself in the NFL. Sure, he's coming into the league as a second-stringer, but if he has his way, he'll soon be running the show.
“I just want to be a good teammate,” Glennon said on SiriusXM NFL Radio, via JoeBucsFan.com.
“I’m going to be a good teammate to all the guys, to the quarterbacks,...
Freeman says relationship with Schiano is great
Many believe that there is some kind of a discord between Bucs quarterback Josh Freeman and head coach Greg Schiano. Back in early March, Freeman’s agent Erik Burkhardt told TheBayCave.com that the Bucs are huge believers in his client and shot down the speculation of there being a disconnect between the team and Freeman. Today, as a guest on “The Sports Page” with Rick Stroud...
Bucs already hinting at a change at QB
The feeling that Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Greg Schiano is not enamored with Josh Freeman as his starting quarterback appeared to have spread to the front office when the Bucs spent their third-round pick on Mike Glennon out of NC State. Not only did the Bucs have Glennon rated as the best QB in last month’s NFL Draft, but they appear ready to fast track him to the starting...

Last week, in the course of 48 hours, both football worlds of the Glazer family were rocked upside down with the retirements of the people that most embody the teams they own.
Admittedly, to say they were turned upside down would be an exaggeration, with hindsight seeming to suggest both decisions had been lined up...

Glennon will replace Freeman this season
Seems like people are still piling on the idea of Josh Freeman losing the starting role this season to rookie quarterback Mike Glennon. According to Gil Alcaraz IV of RantSports.com, Glennon will eventually replace Freeman this season. While it’s still a mystery as to when it’ll happen, rookie Mike Glennon will be the starting quarterback for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at some...
Tampa Bay’s Doug Martin Should See an Increase in Production in 2013
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Doug Martin finished his rookie season in 2012 as the No. 5 rusher in the NFL. He wasted no time in placing his name next to that of Ray Rice, Arian Foster and Adrian Peterson in conversations about the top running backs in the league.
This prompted me to do some research in terms of the historical production of running backs in their second year...

Buccaneers Let Ronde Barber Walk Away From NFL On Own Terms
Walking away from the NFL on a player’s own terms doesn’t happen often. Due to free agency and the salary cap structure of today’s NFL, it’s nearly impossible for a player to earn the loyalty of an organization and garner the respect of a franchise to allow an employee to make the ultimate decision, instead of giving them an optimum. Ronde Barber officially walked away...
