Bucs take “C” from Freeman
 

In the NFC South, one young quarterback has become a team captain for the first time. And another fairly young quarterback has lost his “C” after three seasons of serving in that role.

Via Joe Smith of the Tampa Bay Times, quarterback Josh Freeman won’t be a Buccaneers captain for the first time since 2009, his rookie season.

I watched a lengthy interview with that guy one time, and I saw ZERO signs of what I would consider leadership. He seemed kinda stoner-ish and "yeah, everything will work itself out" which is not what you want in the huddle when you're throwing four picks and struggling to score any points at all against the supposedly "worst defense in history."

Leaders make things happen, followers hope someone leads something to happening.

I saw it a few years ago when things went bad he was throwing hissyfits on the sidelines and pointing fingers at players. Leaders don't cry and whine.

Doh. Sucks to be him.

Now that funny right their.

I've never really thought much of Josh Freeman, especially in the leadership dept. ... being the QB doesn't automatically make you a leader ... just look at Matt Ryan, :lol:.

This will also be discovered in GRB. Rodgers is not a leader. Driver was the leader.

Re: Bucs take “C” from Freeman
 

Really? I'm gonna' have to pay more attention to that, I thought Rodgers was in charge over there ... and on topic, Freeman could be seen pouting on the Buccaneer bench in their last second loss to the Jets ...

Not surprising when he has just drove them down the field to win the game and a real boneheaded move from Lavonte David lost it for them

That push put the Jets in FG range with 2 seconds to go

I know, I had Tampa in that one too, :burn: ... there was a stat floating around out there something like the NYJ are 4-0/6-0 vs TB at home that I chose to ignore as well, but come on! :lol:.

Is head is not in the game. Bring in Dan Orlovsky !

Re: Bucs take “C” from Freeman
 

Good news is, even though Freeman drove them down to put the Bucs up against the Jets, they were still just barely in a position to beat the Jets. Good news for us in the division.
