The Bucs are working on the shotgun more than ever during summer workouts, but the gut feeling is that Jon Gruden still has doubts. Maybe he's just playing coy, but you don't get the feeling he's really committed to it when the subject comes up. Chances are we'll see in the preseason, but will he have the nerve to use it in September?

Good move, the Bucs o-line is horrible. 7/10 passes attempted by them are knocked down by the d-line.

Little Napolean will revert to the single wing by Labor Day.

With Garcia, not Simms, working out of the shotgun.. Just means more time for him to complete passes or take off a runnin'..

the old WRs have to get rid of their walkers if they are going to move to shotgun? how is going to affect the Cadillacs numbers?

Garcia will thank Gruden for the shotgun....it will save his life...

If Cadillac doesn't get off his crack-hole his number will be zero as he sits on the sidelines. Although, I think a shotgun formation will open up even more options for the Buc's RBs.

Cadillac can catch out of the backfeild. That works well with the addition of Jeremy Stevens, bc both should be able to exploit a slower less fluid linebacker in coverage. MY ONLY issue is Grudens terrible play calling late in the first half and all of the second half of the last two seasons. Gruden sucks and so does Allen. If we have another losing season I hope the both walk the plank!!!!!
