The Sad Truth I'm Afraid

From all indications, it seems that Mr. Bowles is going to remain on in 2026. Lessons learned from the Glazer boys should be the fact that they let Liam go to Jacksonville and turn a 4-13 squad into a 13-4 team. Canales went to Carolina and turned a 5-win team into division champs. The Panthers had quality wins vs. Green Bay and the Rams, while the Bucs lost to a Saints team that was mired in last place. It should be noted also that the Panthers also waxed Atlanta 30-0. The point here is that Bucs' brass allowed 2 coaches go the last 2 years and both are division champs, both with arguably less talented teams overall. While injuries on the o-line seriously hurt the offense, it was the piss-poor play of the defense that ultimately cost the Bucs. Opponents consistently shredded the defense on passes across the middle with no defensive adjustments. Now, maybe TB lacks overall talent in the LB and DB corps, and any adjustments would have been futile. But my eyes saw no effort to adjust coverages. All of this, combined with the alleged "Walk-Throughs" only give me pause. If it were only one player reflecting upon this, it would tend to be fodder, however, it sounds like multiple players alluded to it. In conclusion, as a Buc fan since the beginning, I feel it is time for a change. Don't let the grass grow at OBP....go out and recruit John Harbaugh NOW. He is the best option to replace Bowles. I believe Todd is a good man but his track record as a HC is "meh" at best. Sidenote to Jason Licht: Keeping Bowles will eventually cost you your job.
