The Buccaneers started strong this year. But, they need to do something to fill the void left by Griese. Rattay may keep their playoff hopes alive.

I think Rattay is a good fit for Tampa, and as a Niner fan I don't have much doubt that he'll be successful there.

I playoff hopes yes. But expect a first round exit. Griese, for all of his faults, has really good games in him. Not sure the same is true for Rattay.

[/ QUOTE ]hey may get a chance in STL. I haven't heard much about Bulger's status there.

I doubt Bulger's out for more than a game or two but Jeff George would seriously pwn with that offense.

That would be awesome to watch.

What's your deal with this guy? Amazing arm, but a total rockhead.

Guy got a bad reputation from the media unfairly. I sympathize with that. It's bullshit the way he was treated in Washington and ridiculous that he's pretty much been out of the league since then. With better luck he would've been one of the best QBs of the 90's and with a better reputation would be basically Vinny Testaverde x2 right now.

I personally became a fan thanks to Madden 2000.

But people say I'm crazy.

Vinny's better than Chris Simms.

Just admit that you don't know [censored] from [censored] about the guy, other than what the pundits say about Texas.
