What would happen if Team Glazer issued a statement in this time of Buccaneers crisis acknowledging the Bucs’ terribly disappointing start, noting it’s unacceptable and stating ownership expects the current coaching staff to right the pirate ship and transform the team before the end of the year?
That would be a way to send a message that head coach Todd Bowles, while on a broiling seat, isn’t getting fired soon. A statement like that, Joe believes, would stop many fans from daily spending at least the next month pacing, stressing, driving too fast and tossing and turning at night wondering if tomorrow is the day Bowles gets fired.
If Team Glazer isn’t going to fire Bowels in-season, a statement like that would throw a little cold water on the raging fire burning across Bucs fandom.
Young children might find more weeks of relative peace in their homes. Those local small business owners Team Glazer has funded might find more producutivity in their ranks. _“Well, they’re not going to can Bowles for months, so we might as well chill.”_
Joe thinks Team Glazer commenting on the state of the team this week is at least the kind thing to do for the suffering masses.
Say something.
Yes, there’s a loud crowd that wants a Bowles firing announcement to be the only noise from ownership. But if Bowles is going to stick around for several weeks or until the end of the season, then the decent thing to do is to get that message out to fans.
