2 weeks in, what teams already need a change at QB?

[Holden_Caulfield]

I wish Houston would do the same with Case Keenum.

they should trade for josh freeman

[spurraider21]

Freeman would be an elite backup anywhere.. except Tampa

Freeman isn't Flynn, either. Plus, it's not a lost season for the Bucs yet. There's no reason why Tampa should feel they can't beat the Saints when they play them again. Atlanta has a loss, and Carolina has two already. Tampa just needs to get it together, whether that means bringing in Glennon or just fixing their penalites.

Saints will blast them in the Dome whether its Freeman or Glennon starting.

But Freeman isn't totally the problem. But he's a big part of it. Still, they make alot of stupid penalties and it kills them.

Nevermind the Saints play them in week 17.

Source: Josh Freeman seeking trade

UPDATED SEP 25, 2013 4:38 PM ET


Josh Freeman is seeking a trade, a source close to the situation told FOXSports.com on Wednesday, just hours after the Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback was demoted to the backup role behind Mike Glennon.
No official communication has been made to or from Freeman, the source said, but the request to engage in talks is expected to come soon.

Specifics on other teams and their interest level were not clear, but the fifth-year veteran would likely be a good fit with a couple of teams in need of help at the position, including the Oakland Raiders and Minnesota Vikings.

Freeman was a Pro Bowler in 2010, when he played under Greg Olson, the now-Raiders offensive coordinator, in Tampa Bay from 2009-11. Freeman had his best seasons with Olson and would likely be a seamless fit in that offense.

The Vikings have quarterback issues of their own. Former first-round pick Christian Ponder has been a disappointment since being selected in 2011. Freeman would be an upgrade. The Vikings, however, currently don’t have the cap space to acquire him, so he would likely not be the only piece in the trade.


It’s been a rough season for Freeman. He was dissed by a quarterback legend. His relationship with head coach Greg Schiano reportedly splintered in current months. He reportedly missed a team photo earlier this month. And he was also stripped of his duties as team captain before the season. Trade rumors had already been swirling around Freeman, and Wednesday’s decision by Buccaneers brass was the final straw, the source said.

The Buccaneers made a long-term decision by making Glennon the starting quarterback in Week 4’s game against the Arizona Cardinals. Glennon, who was selected in the third round of April’s draft, will have a bye week to evaluate his preparation and play heading into a Week 6 matchup against the Eagles.

The trade deadline is Oct. 29.

if Al Davis was still alive he'd pull the trade to be honest. "He can throw the deep bawl like a true ray-duh"

Agree on all counts. The Bucs are good for one compe ive game with the Saints a year, but New Orleans tends to win the other easily. And Freeman just flat-out didn't play well this year. I think a lot of that's on the coaching staff, but it's hard to not replace him when he's sucked so badly. They should trade him to a team where he could get a fresh start. I hope it's not Oakland, though. I'd hate to see then move on from Pryor.

Thankfully Kubes is too in love with Schaub to make this trade this early in the season. Hopefully Freeman is safely on another team when Schaub crashes and burns yet again in the post season and they start thinking about a QB change going into the coming offseason.

I think it's safe to say Houston needs one now.
