I mean it does say he met with them Tuesday which presumably would have been before Harbaugh was fired. Still gonna hold out hope that they go after him and land him.
You know what’s worse than Bowles staying?
The end of this implying that they are discussing it, but aren’t high on getting a defensive coordinator. Our defense has been declining for years. Our best players are getting worse.
***AND WE DO NOTHING ABOUT IT.***
Bowles transitioning to a pure HC role would have been one thing. This is pure insanity.
This will be our downfall
The owners just do not care.
Fucking hell. The Glazers are mind-numbingly stupid.
I think Arians has more influence than we realize. I appreciate him helping us out on our 2nd SB win, but he needs to go because he wants medicore Todd Bowles.
What’s insane is that, while it is entirely possible the entire fanbase is wrong about Bowles, we all know we will waste another year next year and with another franchise he’d probably be fired by week 6-8 next year, yet the Glazers seem to be perfectly fine with that? Unless they’re completely blinded or idiots, neither of which I would think. Could just be they’re being gaslit
If you’re forcing all this bullshit around the head coach why not just replace the fucking coach?
This isn’t year 1.
Hey remember when this guy lead us to a season beyond expectations? Me neither.
Hey remember when this guy lead us to a disappointing season consistently? Oops.
Good call, Glazers. I am sure it will work out.
“Possibly” a dc. Not even hard commitments. Lack of pass rusher seen as unattractive for anyone coming in. So Licht’s mismanagement of personnel is also impacting this decision. This refusal to take hard action and force people to buy in or get out that players themselves are frustrated with doesn’t only start with the coaching, but come all the way from the top down. No surprise, here comes last place in the division next year.
He HAS to give up coaching defense if he is staying.
5-12 here we come!
Ok let him teach up a DC then. He needs HELP these guys aren’t practicing enough and not prepared. If we have to endure another season of soft zone coverages can we at least get more coaches in so he isn’t doing two jobs at the same time?
I would prefer new coaching but if not we need some changes already this collapse was terrible.
We’re essentially just kicking the can down the road. This roster will be stuck in 9-8 purgatory. Bowles will not allow a DC to change his scheme and I just don’t know how you go back from the way he’s pretty much blamed the players.
He’s going to be fired next year as he will spend all season on the hot seat.
A new Offensive leaning coach will come in and that likely will spell the end of Bakers time here as they won’t want to tie themselves to a 32 year old QB for the future.
If you need to bring in a bunch of coaches so the HC and team doesn’t suck and he didn’t do that himself, what’s the point of keeping him?
Well see you guys 2027, we will have a fresh new coaching staff and a top 10 draft pick and we can start all over….
Excuse my ignorance but hasn’t word been from just about everyone they are meeting with Bowles on Wednesday, once more this is another “insider” basically saying I think he stays without any actual proclamation. On top of that why are we continuing to post and care about what anyone thinks is going to happen instead of just waiting for an actual announcement?
Lmaoooo if this holds true, 2026 is going to amount to fuck all as well, potentially worse than 2025. This guy is the definition of mediocrity and below average at best. He is a bucket full of excuses. The players talking about not being prepared should be an absolute indictment on his coaching style. He hasn’t developed anybody, he refuses to adapt or change scheme, seemingly no in-game adjustments, terrible clock and game management, throws players under the bus to the press, even now dumping on fans for being displeased with the wasted potential of this team. He’s a known quantity, and that quantity is sub .500 career winning percentage and under performing and regressing teams year over year. What a masterclass on how to waste multiple seasons of football and avoid accountability altogether. Clown shoes all around.
I have more faith in the Rays next season than the Bucs. And that’s saying something
Sure let’s can the first year playcaller for the offense stagnating but not the multi year defensive “guru” for the defense getting worse year in and year out
Selling my season tickets for next year… not watching this bs.
The players are literally saying they don’t practice enough to be prepared for gameday. It makes sense when you see the early season success, after running full speed practices in training camp, then the mid season collapse as they do more walk throughs and don’t practice at full speed.
How is surrounding that mentality with more coordinators going to fix the core problems of a team that is unprepared to play against the big dogs?
I was refreshing the sub to see the news that Bowles was fired but instead it all came to this? I am genuinely surprised the board does not realize that dropping from THIRD to 22nd in just ONE YEAR. If Bowles was a masterclass guru then we would be T4-T6 at best but ALL PHASES are TRASH. I truly fucking hope this team goes next year with 3-wins at most because this screams not being interested in improving.
Glazers, enjoy a fucking empty stadium filled with boos and everything… I won’t travel anymore to Tampa from Mexico or Greece just to see this man destroy the team I love.
I genuinely might not watch next year. Not a single fan in Tampa wants to see his disgruntled face on the sideline anymore. Especially after him alluding to winning the division 3 years in a row “speaking for itself.” That should make any owner angry at the complacency.
Also, how do you even improve OC? You never see them make a lateral move to another organization so its most likely going to be a promotion for somebody that will come with “on the job training” unless we get lucky with a Coen again.
5 and 12 season incoming
What blackmail does Todd Bowles have on this organization??? How the fuck could anyone keep him around after this disaster of a season.
What qualified coordination will want to go to a team whose hc is on the hot seat after a disappointing year? We are lowering the ceiling of qualified candidates with this crap
I mean, AT LEAST make a call to JH for crying out loud! Make it seem like you care about this organization and its fans! 😣😣

Why do we reward mediocrity?
Noooooooooooo
Great, nothing to look forward too
Does our executive leadership live under a rock?
Everyone except the Glazers sees this coach sucks

Must be nice to get paid millions to be completely dogshit at your job without having to worry about being fired… how do I get this job?
You can’t throw Baker under the bus. While taking zero accountability. Then come back next season and expect there to be chemistry.
This is a team that doesn’t want to win
Defensive players said they would feel lost on defense during games and that’s the type of coach we wanna keep?
