The Tampa Bay Buccaneers Are Horrible and No One Cares

And so it has come to this in Tampa:

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are a horrible football team and at this point, no one really cares.

No one cares because the harsh reality of preseason predictions of oh so many observers have become true.

In fact, these Bucs are WORSE than most expected.

Tampa Bay has grown oh so tired of the ramblings of Raheem Morris.

Indeed, Morris admitted recently: "until this team improves in certain situations, we won't win games."

A 1-11 record will do that to even the most optimistic.

These Bucs are horrible at best.

Tampa Bay fans are forced to live on the dogma of "the improved defense" that Morris now oversees. All that does is show how incredibly stupid it was to hire Jim Bates.

The sins of this young coach and his sidekick Mark Dominik hit Tampa Bay fans in their collective faces every week.

Rookie quarterback Josh Freeman show promise with his size, speed, arm, and poise. But his late season presence only shows that he probably should have been named the starter from the day he walked in.

Michael Clayton is as horrible as he ever was and shame on Morris for believing he isn't.

Shame on this coaching staff for putting their only Pro Bowl player, Clifton Smith, on kickoff coverage teams. They knocked him right off the team and onto the injured reserve list with another concussion.

That's the way it has gone for this awful football team. 

Sunday the Buccaneers play a lousy New York Jets team.

On paper, it's another game the Buccaneers have a chance to win.

Home game, no Mark Sanchez, better defense, and perhaps Freeman won't throw five picks again.

Only problem is: Does anyone really care?

There are so many other things to do this time of year.

Pulling for these 1-11 Buccaneers isn't one of them.

So now the Bucs will duke it out with St. Louis to determine the league's worst team.

Cleveland took a step forward Thursday night with its upset victory over the slumping Steelers.

One and eleven.

It sounds oh so horrible.

That's because it is.
