Mike Glennon can play

[theENGLISHseahawk]

With every passing week, Greg Schiano looks like a genius.

He hand picked this guy. And Glennon looks very legit. Now we see how on earth NC State allowed Russell Wilson to go off to Wisconsin.

Funny how the league works. Schiano was a lame duck before the Seahawks game. Since then few teams have played tougher football than Tampa Bay.

Our victory against the Buccs suddenly looks a lot stronger.

And Glennon needs to be their QB for the long term.

What do you think this frees them up to do with their top-eight or so pick (more than likely), Rob? I think they will play themselves out of Jadaveon Clowney. I think that they could use a guy across from Vincent Jackson, as well as Tiquan Underwood played today. Maybe Sammy Watkins? They are also not good or deep at TE. Would someone like Jace Amaro be out of the question for them in that range?

 

[OrFan]

I still think Schiano is a piece of crap, but that was a good pick. That pick allowed them to dump Freeman, who had been holding TB back. Glennon will be good.

 

[KK84]

Glennon is legit. And Schiano did pick him. However Schiano still sucks and should be canned IMO.

 

[C-Dub]

Never knew Napolean Dynamite could play ball. Wonder if this will save Schiano from the axe.

 

[The Outfield]

RW must have rubbed off on him at NC State.

Obviously if they're in range for Clowney he has to be the pick. If not then I think you tap into that offensive line group -- lot's of good left tackles around. Solidify the left side for a few years.

I was surprised Glennon fell to the third round. I thought he was a better prospect than the likes of Andy Dalton and Jake Locker from previous years.

I was pretty miffed when some people accused Seattle of playing down to the Bucs a few weeks ago. They clearly didn't watch the game, as Glennon was making plays on the move like a 6'7" Tony Romo.

I'm not surprised by Glennon's success. I am only surprised that Nassib, Barkley, and Smith haven't been as successful.

Never thought I'd see NC State as QB U. Just kidding, but I do think they're the only school with 3 starters (Wilson, Glennon, Rivers).

I'm not convinced Matt can fit well in Chip's offense. He certainly isn't a good fit when coming in as the third string guy getting tossed into the game with little to no game prep.

 

[WilsonMVP]

Ya Glennon has been playing really well. If he can keep it up he will be at least above average in the league

More like he learned from Uncle Rico.

And Frisco still has to travel to Tampa.

After the success of Rivers at NC State, we entered a period of purgatory under struggling QBs until Russell and Mike G took the helm. Now we are back to sucky QBs. Seriously, we are SO BAD at that position right now!! Its painful. We are now a whopping 0-7 in ACC play this year. These days, I have to hype myself up to get out of bed go to the darn games. If we beat Maryland next week, it will be a miracle.

 

[MANUNITED23]

He is pretty much the best rookie QB this year.

 

[theENGLISHseahawk]

It's quite incredible that the same school has provided back-to-back third round steals at the QB position.

Two players who couldn't be any more different physically too.

Glennon has the look of a legit franchise QB. He just seems in complete control. Better than expected athleticism too, good arm.

Tampa Bay pulled off a masterstroke with that pick.

 

[razgriz737]

Haven't been able to watch many Bucs games, but he certainly tore us a new one a few weeks ago.

NC State: Quarterback Factory.

 

[12th_Bob]

Totally convinced in Glennon, didn't like him coming into the draft but he looks like the real deal to me now.

Added and started on my fantasy team over Rivers, also, watching real football he can make all the throws, good mechanics, great accuracy. When he learns to read a d better he'll be even better.

Yup. The Bucs are looking like a potential spoiler team. They close the season @ New Orleans, too.
