The early realization that Freeman sucked and his eventual replacement with Glennon by Schiano was the undoing of this franchise. Why?

Schiano was thrown into a no win situation. was he a good NFL coach? probably not but Lovie is proving to be even worse.

Was he a good NFL coach?Who could've done more with the dumpster fire that was Morris/Freeman and the Bucs?The answer to your question was, YES.

Lovie Smith will ruin this young man's career. The Saints are going to beat the crap out of us!

Freeman was the real cancer of the team during the Schiano years.But honestly at the time I didn't think Lovie was going to be a bad hire. But boy I was wrong. I think Lovie is just interested in collecting his paycheck nowadays.

I don’t see how anyone could question we would have won more games. That would still make Greg Schiano a horrible NFL coach, but is a good illustration for how monumentally bad Lovie Smith is doing. The NFL truly isn’t set up for any one team to be as bad as we are. We are smashing logic and reason bad. You have to be trying to be that bad, bad.

Schiano wasn’t a good coach just turns out lovie is worse then him same way schiano was worse the raheem. This team turns everything it touches into suck it looks like.

Schiano wasn’t a good coach, though he was a great planner. He would usually have his team prepared for the first half but as the game went along and coaches made adjustments to what Schiano was doing, he was very regimented and couldn’t do better than that. However, I feel pretty confident in saying that Schiano is a better coach than Lovie Smith.

Qutie frankly this is BS. Lovie came here, got front office control and proceeded to ruin our cap space with players he wanted in FA, then drafted the QB of the future, this roster is Lovie's now. Schiano was 11-21, he had his shortcomings but I haven't seen a single thing from Lovie Smith that makes me think he's even nearly as good of a coach as Schiano was. And I'm not advocating for Schiano to come back, far from it.

I disagree, the manner in which Schiano/Glennon lost to Arizona was a competitive one. losing 13-10 and your QB throwing an INT at the end of the game while trying to march down the field and win is a damn sight better than the abject capitulation that Lovie/Winston presided over yesterday, Lovie/Winston had lost the game by the end of the 1st quarter. At least Schiano/Glennon made a game of it.

1. Cap space is fine.2. The real mistakes that Lovie made was in absolutely cleaning house along the O-line (trading Zuttah and releasing Penn). Which resulted in the problems we see today.3. Drafting Sims in the 3rd (further compounding issues along the O-line. OG should've been the pick.Schiano had his troops playing BALL. Every week you could see that they were putting their all into the game, but the locker room was in shambles. Whether he created or inherited that situation is irrelevant; he completely mishandled it.Lovie must be schematically better than yesterday and we saw the dividends on D late last year.

We have the 6th highest amount of cap space in the league. Next year we have $48 million to work with (4th highest), and in 2017, we have $101 million (highest amount of room). Whatever faults the current GM/HC have, it's not "ruining our cap space."

He's 2-15. We could turn it around certainly, I'm not saying we can't. But this idea that Lovie has shown even a slightest bit of competence when he's coached a terrible D (that is supposed to be his speciality) and coached a bottom 1/3rd offense in the league. Schiano's locker room was in shambles, certainly, but the team always was trying, and even though Schiano struggled to adjust from his game plan, he at least came up with game plans to keep us competitive. We lost to a 2-14 team that changed very little in the offseason, they just drafted a QB we could've had and had the game won with 6:00 left in the 1st quarter. That kind of stuff never happened with any regularity under Schiano, it's happened 3 times in Lovie's 17 games.

He never showed greatness but he also never had a fair shot. He was pressured to have a QB that doesn't belong in the NFL as the face of the franchise. When the face of your franchise is supposed to be Freeman you had no chance since the start. I though Schiano showed a few positives Doug Martin had a monster season and he drafted Lavontae David. The defense was decent. The problem was the offense (Freeman). I'll say it again, your offense has no shot if Freeman is your franchise QB. Hell, imagine if Chip Kelly would have accepted the Bucs offer. He would have ended up fired too.

How many times did the offence put the defence in a precarious position last year? ... and again this season. Not saying they played competently yesterday, but they have played well in the past. The results should not be the only thing taken into consideration. Results-bias will have you canning the HC after every season.Anybody even implying the firing of Lovie needs to take a seat. Let the season play out.
