Bucs Should Keep Morris, Bring In Coordinator

Although the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have had one of their most disappointing seasons, the consensus has been to keep head coach Raheem Morris.

There have been many published reports and callers on sports radio shows who are screaming for Morris to be kicked out, but there is also a large contingent who feel he should stay.

One suggestion out there is for the organization to bring in a defensive coordinator to reduce a lot of Raheem’s responsibilities.

The 2010 season was one of promise for the Bucs and Morris, and the team finished with a 10-6 record, barely missing the playoffs. However this season has been a disaster with the Bucs ranked 31st in the NFL in points allowed, and no team has given up more rushing touchdowns.

Most insiders believe Morris had to deal with a shortened season due to the lockout, and with a team full of rookies, the learning curve was shortened dramatically.

It is believed that if Morris is given a full season to work with his young players, especially the ones on defense, the Bucs will quickly turn things around.

Former Buccaneer head coach, Tony Dungy, has gone on record as saying replacing the head coach is not always the right thing to do, because in most cases, he’s not the reason the team is underachieving.

There will be some changes with the Bucs, and if Morris can either win their remaining games against the Panthers and Falcons, or make the team perform competitively, it may be just enough to secure his return for the 2012 season.
