I simply don't know enough about what has happened to both teams in the offseason.  Last year was terrible for St Louis, but nothing at all went right for them.  They certainly needed some upgrades at a lot of positions…not so much in talent as in endurance, as they are/were far to prone to injury.

The Bucs need to get an identity back, and I honestly dont think they will click until they do.  Freeman has the ability, and talent is not terrible around him, but they just seem like they have no direction or fire.

If someone has the time to fill me in on the offseason for these teams, it'd be appreciated.  I've gotta start looking for my annual up-and-comer team, and that means looking at the flunkers from last year.

I really dont know much about Schiano, and that will be the ticket as to what they do.  Kellen Winslow doesn't like the signing, so they must be doing something right.  From all I can tell he's a no-nonsense type.  From experience, that mentality can go one of two drastically different ways: the players respond and it gives them the direction I was talking about, or they rebel, and there's mutiny on the field.

Fisher, I have always thought was an excellent coach.  Unfortunately, he will likely worry about the defense first, and his approach doesn't always amount to enormous offensive output, but he will make it effective.

As for talent, adding Jackson is HUGE, but the rest don't excite me a lot.  I don't know a lot about some of those names.  All St Louis really needs is consistent help at the receiver position, their line to stay healthy, and probably someone to chip in at RB to keep SJax upright, and they should do well.

I think I would trust the experienced coaching of Fisher over a new college coach.  I'd go Bradford, despite the fact that I think Freeman has more talent around him.
