On the surface, I can see how one could call that firing a bonehead move...but being a Bucs fan, I get why you have to make that move. A few years back we had an all world defense which should have gotten us to the Super Bowl multiple times. But we had a very classy head coach who wasn't able to get us over that hump. In the NFL there is this "window of opportunity" that lasts maybe 3-4 years max when the salary cap, age of players, and strength of your conference all line up to where you can win the whole thing. If the Chargers don't feel confident that Marty can get them over that hump during their window..then they don't want to waste the best years of Ladanian Tomlinson. They want to get the staff in there to get that championship before the salary cap takes that team apart. Much like our hometown bucs did, and it worked out. Love Gruden or Dungy or hate them...it worked out. Ask the fans in Cleveland, Philly, or Buffalo what they'd have given up to capitalize on their "window". Sometimes it takes bold moves......3 years from now we can second guess or delcare Smith and Spanos geniuses.

I'm thinking this thread was originally started on the Main Board and then moved in here at a later point.

    "There is no inherent fear among this group of players. The fear of failing drove the program from day one - the fear of failing the coaches, the fan base, the university, each teammate, themselves. Now, as we head into the biggest game in our history at home on a national stage against the highest ranked team to step on OUR field, the players are taking an introspective look at themselves. Unfortunately, I don't know if they get it. They lack the fear."

    Terry Lucas, 09/26/22

    "For me, I never considered it that way (as a stepping stone), honestly. When I was offered the head job at South Florida, and I'm sincere about this, I never thought I would ever go anywhere."
