    SoDev Don't tase me, bro!

    The Bucs are re-evaluating their plans at quarterback and will consider starting rookie Josh Freeman if he continues to progress in training camp. Quarterbacks coach Greg Olson said "it's not out of the question,' that Freeman takes the path of the Falcons' Matt Ryan and the Ravens' Joe Flacco and starts as a rookie.

    Bad decision, just plain bad. He is not ready. Play it safe Tampa and give him a year or two

    Sounding more and more like Freeman might get the nod down here. If so this will be the first year I don't attend a game at RJS.

    I can't see Freeman being NFL ready at all...not even close. Leftwich should be the starter...let Freeman learn one or two seasons and then try him out...I still don't think he's NFL material...imo...a lesser Jason Campbell...

    If he doesn't start straight away i can see him comng in mid-way once the playoffs are out of reach, but even then can the defense keep games close enough that they aren't on his back, and can he adjust quick nough anyway.
