Season Over\/Under Win Total Betting Odds From beted.com<\/a> – 4.5<\/strong><\/p>\n Jeff Garcia used to say that former Bucs coach Jeff Gruden fell in love with quarterbacks but never married them. Well, Garcia is gone (to Oakland), and Gruden has involuntarily departed (to Monday Night Football), and what\u2019s left isn\u2019t particularly pretty.<\/p>\n Luke McCown, Josh Freeman, Josh Johnson and Byron Leftwich are in a free-for-all to see who starts under center for a team that has been unimaginative and ineffective on offense, and ready to take a major step backward. So desperate for playmakers are the Bucs that there is talk about signing Plaxico Burress and\/or Michael Vick.<\/p>\n TB gave up 123 points over 4 games in December last year, costing the Bucs a playoff spot and Gruden his job. The last nail in the coffin was a season-ending loss at home to Oakland as the defense sucked wind in the final period, giving up 17 points. That means trouble in a division which went 32-16 last season against opponents outside the NFC South.<\/p>\n Surprising stat<\/strong>: Last season Tampa Bay gave up fewer yards per game (306) than did 6 playoffs teams, plus 11-5 New England.<\/p>\n Team strengths<\/strong>: Barrett Ruud is among the better linebackers in the NFC. At this writing the Bucs are playing hardball with Ruud on a contract extension.<\/p>\n Team Weakness<\/strong>: Management was really freaked by last season\u2019s collapse and seems to have overreacted with its purge of veterans. In for a dime, in for a dollar, though, and Bucs fans will have to get used to a few years of rebuilding. That Super Bowl win in 2003 gets smaller and smaller in the rear view mirror.
