BUCPOWER.COM was created in January 2002 and has had over 100 million hits since its inception. It has and always will
be free to access and is the definitive source of historical information on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers for fans worldwide.
DE John Cannon celebrates his
65th birthday on July 30th. He
was a 3rd round pick in 1982
who played over 120 games for
the Bucs across nine seasons
and was a real fan favourite
during his time in Tampa Bay.
DL Randy Crowder (73) played
three seasons from 1978-80
having been released by Miami,
S Sonny Gordon (60) played
seven games in 1987 and WR
Stephen Starring (64) had six
games in 1988 but cost the
Bucs a 3rd round pick for the
dubious honour of acquiring
him.
We also remember QB Jeff
Komlo who played in 1983 and
P Reggie Roby from the 1995
season, born on this day but
sadly no longer with us.
THE QUARTERBACKS Now comes the most contraversial selection on the roster, the
starting quarterback. First of all, Baker Mayfield has not done enough to by-pass Brad
Johnson for the No.3 spot and it sums up the franchise that neither of the first overall
selections would come anywhere close to being considered. But Doug over Tom? It comes
down to what Doug Williams meant to the turnaround of the franchise in the early days. Yes
Brady won a Super Bowl with the Bucs but you have to throw out all previous exploits and
passing numbers cannot be compared. So on this roster, the GOAT will wear the baseball
cap backwards on the sideline behind the real best No.12 Buccaneer.
