But Lovie deserves another chance in the NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T0mShane Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 He's supposedly bringing Leslie Frazier with him to run the D, and Jeff Tedford to run the O. That could be the 2013 Chiefs next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That could be the 2013 Chiefs next year. Now they're saying Rod Marinelli as the possible DC. Would certainly make sense considering that was his DC during his last 3 years in Chicago.

NYJSanchez Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 Nice hire for them...Revis is wasted in a cover 2 system though. Schiano had potential but he just seemed a bit all over the map at times. The complete implosion of Josh Freeman wasn't a good thing and after bringin in Revis for 2 draft picks and big money to play so poorly wasn't a good way for him to keep his job. Football in Florida is a sad situation -- kinda like NY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smashmouth Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 Good sh*t, I don't think they should've fired Schiano. But Lovie deserves another chance in the NFL.

Lupz27 Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 you definitely don't need a $16M press man corner in the Tampa-2. Revis should be cut, he is not worth 16 mill in a Tampa 2, sign Asante Samuel, and the production would be better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sourceworx Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 Lovie is a damn good coach and I expect a complete turn around from the Bucs next year. Agreed. If Frazier and Tedford join him, that's a heck of a coaching staff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BurnleyJet Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 Revis is defo getting cut, so we get a 4th and not a 3rd. Interesting to see what the market price will be for Revis, I'd say 11-12 mill range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting to see what the market price will be for Revis, I'd say 11-12 mill range. I'd say your close, but I don't think anyone is going to give him much guaranteed money. If he hits the market, with all the cap space the Jets have, I wouldn't mind if the Jets took another look at him, but in the same type contract he had in Tampa. Can walk away form the contract at any time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYJSanchez Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 I don't know how Tampa can cut a guy they gave up two picks to get -- will be interesting to see what goes on in Tampa in the coming weeks with him.Tillman and Jennings played some solid CB for the bears when Lovie was the coach. Revis is aggressive, a sure tackler, and does allow other players to make plays in the secondary. I think it will come down to the $16 million and not the coach/scheme.

Revis is aggressive, a sure tackler, and does allow other players to make plays in the secondary. I think it will come down to the $16 million and not the coach/scheme. The $16 million would of course be a huge factor, but the point being that this already absurd amount of money for a CB becomes that much more absurd in this particular scheme. What the team gave up for him has already been made pretty much irrelevant unless the owner decides to take great issue with it, as both the GM and HC responsible for that trade have been fired, so there is no commitment to the move by Smith or whoever their new GM is. As far as they're concerned, the only question is whether or not this player in this system is worth this much money, and it would not be particularly surprising if the answer to that question for both of them was a resounding "no". Considering the first rounder was already long gone before they showed up and so essentially means nothing to them, they might even see it as an opportunity to help their current picks out in the process, by knocking down this year's pick due to the Jets a round.

Now they're saying Rod Marinelli as the possible DC. Would certainly make sense considering that was his DC during his last 3 years in Chicago. I saw Marinelli too. I have to be honest, Lovie was one of my top choices for a replacement for Rex. Dunbar comes from a 4-3 background, plus he's a GREAT DL coach, so I figured our DL would continue to thrive and the change to a Tampa 2 behind them would be easy, since most of our players behind the DL are junk, and can/should be replaced anyway. Demorrio Davis seems like a better fit as MLB in a 4-3 anyway, but I don't pretend to know enough about the requisite skills to think I'm right.

Joe Jets fan Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 Pure Tampa 2 does not work in the NFL anymore Look at the Cowboys, they have one of the best DC running it and they got shredded this year. If they do try to run it Revis will def get cut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Il Mostro Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 Good move. The outgoing GM did a more than decent job acquiring talent -- Bucs should have a bounce back season, especially if they go back to the original uni's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T0mShane Posted January 2, 2014 Share Posted January 2, 2014 Sounds like Lovie got 5 years at $5 mil per. I'm not sure why Rex doesn't quit the Jets tonight if that's the market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
