Bucs Support Jameis Winston, Hopeful NFL’s Clears Him In Groping Case

[MIKE75]

Bucs co-chairman Joel Glazer threw his support behind quarterback Jameis Winston.

 

“Yeah, Jameis has been nothing but a great person since he’s been with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers,” Glazer told Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times. “And he’s done everything we’ve asked of him. He’s been a great leader. He’s been unbelievable in the community and we have great confidence in Jameis. So we focus on the great things Jameis has done.”

 

The league began an investigation in November after an Uber driver accused Winston of groping her at the drive-through of a Scottsdale, Arizona, restaurant in March 2016.

 

Earlier Tuesday, Bucs coach Dirk Koetter and General Manager Jason Licht expressed frustration at the slow pace of the NFL’s investigation.

 

At the same time, Koetter remains hopeful Winston won’t face a suspension.

 

I think it was important that we signed Ryan Fitzpatrick back Koetter said.

There are people on this board who still wish we got him over Marcus.

[MIKE75]

From the very beginning it seems like a lot of people had Winston rightly pegged as someone who would end up in the headlines for the wrong reason and on top of that not performing up to expectations so far in his short career with Tampa Bay.

 

All i can say is i am very glad we got Mariota.

 

Anyone who tries to argue Winston is better than Mariota at this point doesn't have much of a argument and in fact so far it seems Mariota has definitely outplayed Winston......

 

Below are lots of instances where Mariota was the first to achieve something or led the NFL as best in that category.

 

 

 

 

 Winston nuthuggers have to admit so far Mariota has him beat handedly in many respects.

Not sure why at this point Marcus has Winston beat in pretty much everything. I printed many ways in which Mariota was better its not even a competition anymore at this point.

 

Mariota's accomplishments are way longer and Winston pales in comparison.

 

I'll eat crow and admit i didn't want him at first but i have really grown to admire Mariota he is one heck of a QB and has achieved a lot in just three short years.

 

Below is not all but most of Mariota's accomplishments......in just 3 years all this below...

 

 

Mariota led the NFL with four 4th quarter comebacks and five game winning drives the most of any NFL QB in 2017.

Yes and thank God that Webster,Whisenhunt,AAS and whoever else decided to take Marcus over him. We all saw from the start how goofy Winston was. Many of us were worried we would draft him but luckily we didnt.

Whisenhunt didn’t want Mariota, he wanted Amari Cooper. 

 

It was Webster was driving the Mariota train, and it was Webster that turned down the trade offers. 

 

Which isn’t saying much, as this is what any GM with half a brain would have done.

 

So what does that say about Whisenhunt?  

[MIKE75]

Mariota wasn't my first choice back in 2015. Matter of fact i wanted to stick with Mett. Thank goodness our team brass weren't so hoodwinked at the time did their due dilligence and decided to draft Mariota.

 

Marcus has slowly but surely won me over through the years,I'd love nothing more than to see him eventually help the team win the Lombardi. He has accomplished so much over this short period of time.

Exactly my point. And everyone who wanted him over Marcus on this board is also a dumbass.

I wasn't arguing for Winston dumbass. It was a praise for Mariota and how glad I am we got him. So save your war and peace novel of stats that is tl;dr

Whisenhunt was by far the worst coach to ever led this team by far. He was tyrannical and from what i read there were lots of people around the building who did not like him at all. Whisenhunt was almost like the Cleveland Browns of head coaching.

 

For Whisenhunt to be an offensive guru or whatever you want to call it its strange that in 2010 he ranked 31st in offense, 2012 he ranked 32nd or last in the NFL in offense,2014 he ranked 29th and 2015 he was ranked 30th.

 

October 4,2012 this was the start of his really bad decline and lost 11 of his last 12 games in Arizona this included a  very embarrassing 58-0 loss to Seattle.   1-11

 

Afier winning his debut game as Titans coach Whisenhunt would lose 14 out of his next 15 games in 2014. 2-14

 

Strange he won his debut game again but then lost 6 straight games so he pretty much lost 6 of his last 7 games in 2015. 1-6

 

So from October 4,2012 all the way through November 1st,2015 Whisenhunt had a three year coaching window that everyone in their right mind would wonder how he could hold on that long.

 

His record during this span?????    4 wins and 31 losses

 

4 wins and 31 losses in his last 35 games as a head coach and he was ranked 31st,32nd,29th and 30th in offense.

 

WOW thats beyond terrible.........

 

4 wins and 31 losses in his last 35 games as a head coach

[No1TitansFan]

We'll actually never know whether Webster would have taken Winston over Mariota; of course they're going to say Mariota was there preference after the fact. This latest episode actually sounds pretty bogus, although there is plenty of fault to be found with Winston as far as on field performance; his tendency to lock on a favorite receiver has followed him from college into the pros.

[titanruss]

Of course he did it. He’s a psychopath. He also raped several girls in college. 

 

Youll see see him in the news 5 years after retiring for drugging and raping women
