Bucs OC Zac Robinson.
Through the first four weeks of the season, Zac Robinson may be the worst Bucs offensive coordinator since Joe first launched this website in August 2008.
And that includes ill-suited Marcus Arroyo, who was lousy Lovie Smith’s offensive coordinator in 2014 when the Bucs earned the No. 1 overall pick in the draft.
Apparently, Robinson is incapable of adjusting on the fly. That’s the gist Joe got from the words of KitKat-eating Bucs coach Todd Bowles.
Yes, the Packers were getting heat on rookie Bucs quarterback Jalon Daniels, making a huge task for Daniels even harder. Bowles seemed to suggest part of the inability to stop the Packers’ pass rush was on an undrafted rookie making his first NFL start.
> “Well, if it wasn’t max protection and they send one more than you can handle, that’s on the quarterback to throw the hot and he \[has to\] get that hot out,” Bowles said.
Joe would like to know why Robinson wasn’t using max protection? He knew the Bucs offensive line, for whatever reason, is a total shell of itself. It hasn’t looked this bad since lousy Lovie was around.
If Daniels was struggling with the pressure, why did Robinson let the kid hand out to dry without help?
Between stunts like this, and thinking Cade Otton is Rob Gronkowski and believing Emeka Egbuka and Chris Godwin are the reincarnation of the Calgary Stampeder Donteea Dye and Robert Herron, Joe is finding it hard to believe that Robinson actually worked for Sean McVay.
What did Robinson do when McVay had meetings, sneak out to go watch Dodgers and Lakers games?
The way Joe looks at it, Robinson might very well be gone already if it wasn’t for Baker Mayfield’s messed up thumb.
