Greg Schiano to fans -- Tampa Bay Buccaneers are going to be good

[JonLP24]

TAMPA, Fla. -- A day after he was roundly booed as he left the field following a 31-20 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, Tampa Bay Buccaneers coach Greg Schiano had a message for fans.

"The only thing I can say to the fans is, if they can hang in there, we're going to be good," Schiano said Monday. "If they can't, we're still going to be good, and they're welcome back. I'm not being smart; I mean that."

The Buccaneers are 0-5 and have been in the news for more than just their futility on the field. There was the public feud between former Bucs quarterback Josh Freeman and Schiano, which ended with Freeman being released and signing with the Minnesota Vikings.

The controversy doesn't end there. The Bucs also have had three players dealing with MRSA infections, and that's caused the NFL Players Association to get involved. Even a member of the Backstreet Boys called for Schiano to be fired.

He may be right but I'm amazed at the mess the Bucs are in right now.
