So I saw this morning that Tampa Bay has fired Lovie Smith. I am a Panthers fan, but even as a divisional foe, I find this move to be stupid. The Bucs were gearing up to have a run at the playoffs next year and now they will have to be starting over with a new coaching staff. Jameis Winston played pretty well all year and Doug Martin was in contention for the running title. Not to mention Mike Evans is becoming a dangerous receiver. They have all the pieces in place to have a really strong year next year, but pretty much all of that was thrown away. Now, a new head coach will be brought in with his own ideas about how to do things and so new offensive & defensive schemes will have to be learned, etc.
Sorry, Bucs fans, looks like you will have another disappointing season next year. Here's hoping it helps my Panthers get a 4th straight NFC South title.
