Seriously

I really dont understand why everyone is calling for Bruce's head seriously this is getting rediculous. He is a rookie quarterback who in the last 5 weeks has faced New Orleans, Philly, Giants and the Bengals. 

We arent losing because of weak quarterback play but because of just being a bad team in general. There is no way that we match up with any of these teams. Defensively we cant stop my little sister and offensively we cant run the ball, so what happens when you do that?

A rookie quarterback in a very complicated system with a weak offensive line an recieving core has to try to win the game. That is not going to happen in the NFL with the kind of schedule that we have.

And given those circumstances he could easily be 3-2 in his first 5 starts which is insanely good. Everyone has to realize that we are just not as good as these teams that we are playing. Yes Gradkowski has looked lost at times no doubt about it but he has also showed shades of brilliance.

If any rookie quarterback in the league would be doing this everyone would be calling him the next coming of God but of course not here all everyone does is trash a rookie who isnt throwing for 300 yards and 3 TD like all great Buccaneer quarterbacks have done in the past right?

We are now in a rebuilding mode because we have won because of our defense and well we cant do that anymore so we have to be patient.

I can tell you why they are calling for Bruce's head.  Because TB is home to some of the most uninformed, fairweather, bandwagon jumping fans.  And thats a fact.

During the six back-to-back three and outs yesterday WDAE quoted the following stats this morning:

Average 2nd down 9.2 yards

Average 3rd down 10.5 yards

They were running the ball on first and second down most of the time, so the running game and O-line were the main problem.

Gradkowski is a young QB. He might very well be the future, but he's going to suffer growing pains. Right now, the Bucs are out on a limb in regards to their QB situation. There really isn't another strong option right now. McCown, in my opinion, isn't there yet. He hasn't seen anything serious since May. If the Bucs had a better option, I think they would obviously play that option. Right now, Gradkowski's getting a great learning experience. I like the kid. I would just prefer an experienced vet at QB, but I like the first-hand experience that Gradkowski is picking up for his future.

Looks like Tim Brown may have been correct all along?
