More on Josh McCowns injury

PewterReport.com


A league source confirmed to PewterReport.com on Saturday morning that Bucs quarterback Josh McCown has a significant thumb sprain and could miss “a few weeks.” The source also told PewterReport.com that McCown would see a specialist this week to determine the severity and treatment options.

While it doesn’t look good for McCown to start next Sunday at Pittsburgh, it hasn’t been completely ruled out he could possibly be under center when Tampa Bay faces the Steelers on September 26.

McCown injured his thumb on Thursday night in Atlanta. Following the game Thursday night McCown talked about the injury.

“It might have happened on the sack or it might have happened on my last throw (to Vincent Jackson). I either got it hit by a helmet or when the defender landed on me as my thumb was under me when I hit the ground.”

McCown, signed as a free agent from Chicago back in March, has had a disappointing season through three games in Tampa Bay, throwing four interceptions and just one touchdown pass. McCown has added two rushing touchdowns this season.

Second-year quarterback Mike Glennon will start in McCown’s place if he is unable to play. Glennon started 13 games as a rookie in 2013 and had 19 touchdown passes with just nine interceptions.

Fletcher Not Happy With Bucs 0-3 Start


Link: http://www.pewterreport.com/fletcher-not-happy-with-bucs-0-3-start/


Over the last three weeks, Bucs players have stressed the importance of evaluating themselves rather than their opponent as the best way to correct mistakes. After Thursday night’s 42-point debacle in Atlanta, that mentality hasn’t changed.

Dane Fletcher, who replaced the injured Mason Foster at middle linebacker, spoke to members of the media on Friday and discussed the recovery and reflection process after a loss of that magnitude.

“We’re 0-3,” Fletcher said. “We have to go make adjustments. We have to really do some soul searching here. I’m big on watching the film and really learning what’s going on with us, because it’s all about us at the end of the day. Especially with this defense, special teams, offense, everything all across the board. It’s about us.”

Clinton McDonald, a fellow defender and Super Bowl champion last year in Seattle, described the locker room’s mood on Friday as angry and in shock. Fletcher seems to be in agreement with the former Seahawk, explaining that along with anger, a loss like that yields humiliation.

“It’s embarrassing to come out like that – live TV and everything, in front of your family – [and] put something up like that,” Fletcher said.

A 56-14 defeat is rare for anybody to endure at this level, let alone someone who spent the first four years of his career in New England. The biggest loss he endured as a Patriot was 34-14 at the hands of the Cleveland Browns in 2010. In fact, Fletcher hasn’t gone through a regular season with a record worse than 12-4. While Bucs fans might be used to the embarrassment, this is new for many of the players.

“Like a lot of guys, I’ve never been in a situation like that, never been embarrassed like that,” Fletcher said.

Nevertheless, he finished his interview by acknowledging the team’s dedication to making things right and trying to turn it around. After the Bucs’ team flight was delayed last night, causing the team to get back around 5 a.m., Fletcher seemed proud of the fact that players were back in the building, recovering, studying film, and working to get better.

“You know what, shoot, it was good to come in this stadium this morning and see some faces and see who wants to be here, because at the end of the day we didn’t get in until 5 or 6 in the morning,” he said. “And when you come in in the morning and see guys walking around, their heads are down still getting their lift in, getting their treatments, working in the film room; that shows a lot to me, and that’s what we need. We need a lot more of that. We need everybody to just come and give everything they got because we’ve got a great group of guys and a lot of athletes, so as long as we can put that together we’ll be just fine.”

definitely got bailed out by penalites more than a few times but its nice to have a win.. Need to work on the run game and our D line looked much better this game IMO defense overall played better. Still need help at the lb's though they are terrible besides Lavonte David and he can't do it by himself.
