Statistics have an "anti-Bucs bias?"

[BucBalla85]

Well they were a weak link for us last season on Offense. If Freeman had a little more time back there he could really showcase his talents.

I don't think it's anti-Bucs bias. I just think our OL did a really bad job last year. Some guys were young, some guys had no excuses. Stats don't always tell the whole truth but it's not like they are wrong in saying our OL sucked.

Faine isn't just the worst, he's the worst my a country mile and again by and large th people you expect to be good are up at the top of the list and the lousy are down at the bottom. They must do this right for everyone except the Bucs.

Do people still not get FRG's sarcasm?

The only one that surprises me is Larsen. I thought he looked pretty good last year.

Jeff Faine: #1 worst center

SHOCKER!!! Not.

I think the Buccaneer offensive linemen needs to file a report with FBI.  This is clearly a hate-crime against them, and only them.  PFF does nothing but go out of their way to denigrate a unit that, clearly, is better than they report.

Somebody should look into Football Outsiders and any other website that grades such things.  Those Buc offensive linemen seemed to have pissed off a bunch of folks.

I agree...if they were that bad they would have taken measures to correct this.

Just like when the Bucs took corrective measures for Chris Hovan and Ryan Sims' lousy performances in 2008 and Stylez White and Tim Crowder's underwhelming 2009 seasons?

I agree with you 4bucs

i think its pretty simple.  our OL isnt that good.  freeman and blount made them look a lot better than they should have.  we need more consistency out of them...is that possible?  dominik and morris in a short time have re-made this entire team...the OL will see major changes in due time i believe. 

[dbucfan]

Buccaneer's line would have to be historically bad giving the rating from outside sources - but - then the bucs front office hasn't done much of anything to improve the line for three years.  One would have to think perhaps the bucs FO and Coaching staff doesn't see the Oline group as history making awful.  Now one wonders if an outside source is doing a better evaluation than the bucs' staff...
