As The Bucs Turn......

Arians is pissed that his people including Leftwich were fired. Waaah. Bowles was counting on a winning season to buy him a year of good will to retool. No such luck. OCs candidates are being asked to have a Brady offense and a non-Brady offense. WTF. Brady should retire, but can't decide. So he keeps everybody waiting. If he knew what he effing wanted to do he'd do it. That's great. Thanks a lot. I'm sorry, Jason Licht, but this is all your responsibility. I didn't say it was all your fault, but you are the boss. Act like it. Here's what to do. 1) Ask Brady for a decision in one week. If he can't make one, say thanks for the memories but we are going to move on. 2) Define Arian's role. You don't have to send him packing. You want to stay in his good graces, because he knows how to win in the NFL. Let him help in the coach hiring or scouting or mentoring - whatever. So tell him your sorry his guys were let go, but we want you here - in a specific defined job. Keep him away from Bowles day-to-day activities. He may not want to stay, and that's fine. But we don't need a coach emeritus skulking around OneBuc looking over Bowles shoulder. 3) Tell Bowles the truth. He's got this year to turn it around and show progress, not regression, and it will be with limitations due to cap restrictions. He got himself in this mess because he was supposed to win this year. That was going to buy him enough good will to go through a transition this year. Well, that's out the window and he has to show progress and transition in the same year. That sucks. It's not fair. But it is a problem of his own making, so I don't feel sorry for him. 4) Stop telling OC candidates to have two plans, Brady and non-Brady. That's just going to piss of anybody with some self-respect. What if Brady doesn't come back? Then you used that as a hiring criteria for no reason and maybe you hired the wrong guy. 5) Don't push off the bulk of the cap consequences. Take the hit and get on with it. Sorry Bowles, that's the way it is. Time to show that you have some stones, Jason. Time to show who's boss, and you may have to break some eggs to make the omelets. You may have to piss off a legend or two. But you have to bring the soap opera to an end. Clean up this mess!

If Brady doesnt stay they are rebuilding under the cover of his departure.

the team will NOT say that but that is the reality

so they can wait on him like before

Yeah, I don't know. They need to get younger, faster, and cheaper with or without Brady. I don't think it's a rebuild even if Brady goes. I think they've got some work to do to cover some free agent losses, especially on defense, and draft some speed at receiver and running back. They've still got enough talent to compete, though the Superbowl window is closed. Bringing back Brady isn't gonna keep it open.
