Can Koetter get Bucs offense up to speed?

September 10, 2015 general

Thursday, 6 a.m. Tampa Bay Bucs fans don’t want that much from offensive coordinator Dirk Koetter. Not really. They’d like the rookie quarterback to look efficient. They’d like the broken offensive line to look healed. They’d like the running game to reappear. They’d like the receivers to look dangerous. At the end of the day, […]

Winston vs. Mariota? Start of something big?

September 8, 2015 general

Tuesday, 6 a.m. Was it like this? Was there the tingling anticipation that something big was about to begin? Was there the presumption we were all there at the beginning? Did you think about the record book even then. Did you watch them in warmups? Did you notice the way the ball came out of […]

Scouting the Bucs, one unit at a time

September 7, 2015 general

Monday, 6:20 a.m. This is what a 2-14 team looks like. That, too. This 2-14 team needed quarterbacking after two different guys managed one win each. This team had an offensive line that was a mess. This team didn’t rush the quarterback very well. This team lost too many close games. This team sat out […]

September 6, 2015 College Sports in Florida

Hello, I’m Tim Tebow. And you know, I hear Canada is fine this time of year. – One reason John McEnroe vs. Serena Williams wouldn’t be as big a deal as Bobby Riggs vs. Billie Jean King. These days, tennis isn’t as big. – Alex Rodriguez is hitting .157 since August 1. Think he needs […]

Days of the Dolphins: Life on the Miami beat

September 3, 2015 general

Thursday, 6 a.m. The chair was black and beaten, a survivor of the wars. It stood in a corner of Don Shula’s old office at Nova University, weathered by time and worn by abuse. It was lined and faded, as if it had been stitched together from old leather helmets. There was nothing stately about […]

Where, exactly, will Bucs’ defense be better?

September 2, 2015 general

Wednesday, 6:30 a.m. Try not to think about the new quarterback for a minute. Try not to think about the offensive coordinator. Or the refocused running back. Or the rebuilt offensive line.

September 1, 2015 general

Tuesday, 6 a.m. He was brought in to make the right call. He was brought in to make the uncoordinated look coordinated, to make the rookie quarterback look experienced, to make the broken offensive line look whole again.

Bucs’ Winston still looks like a work in progress

August 31, 2015 general

Monday, 6 a.m. If the preseason is a clue, he has work to do. If the practice games are an indication, he will take some time to grow. In the case of Jameis Winston, are you prepared for that?
