Before this season started, Bucs executives talked about how offseason ticket sales had picked up and were showing glimpses of a “glory years” pace. Well, there’s more evidence now that fans are continuing to respond.

The Bucs announced today that Sunday’s Niners-Bucs game, the home season finale, is sold out.

Winning three in a row at home doesn’t hurt, and neither does having a mighty Niners team in the building. Joe also knows many women will do anything to get within 100 yards of Colin Kaepernick.

Bucs fans yearning to spend money can gobble up cheap season tickets for next season at Buccaneers.com. Donations to Joe also are always accepted.

It’s safe to say Greg Schiano doesn’t read National Enquirer or fantasize about Brett Favre or Johnny Football in his backfield.

A rare improvisational moment from Mike Glennon on Sunday led Schiano to explain one of his core beliefs. [read more]

The Bucs’ second half offense this season is as constipated as a dog on a Saltines and water diet. The Bucs try and try and try and rarely does anything good come out. The numbers are historically dreadful.

A caller to Greg Schiano on WDAE-AM 620 last night expressed his frustration and said the offense looks too conservative. [read more]

The Bucs have turned NFL logic on its ear by leading the league in takeaways despite having a rotten record.

The adage is as old as football itself: teams that win the turnover battle come out ahead. In fact, listed first in Gen. Robert Neyland’s famed Seven Maxims of Football is the following:

The team that makes the fewest mistakes will win.

Joe reminds Bucs fans after reading a Twitter from the Custodian of Canton yesterday, eye-RAH! Kaufman of the Tampa Tribune:

@IKaufmanTBO: The Bucs lead the NFL with 29 takeaways and top the NFC with a plus-13 TO ratio. With the right moves, this could be a scary defense in 2014 [read more]

“Flash” now holds an NFL record

Joe is starting to run out of superlatives when discussing “Flash” Lavonte David. What cannot the man do? The second-year Bucs linebacker tackles, sacks quarterbacks, buries running backs in the end zone, picks passes off and drills people.

The guy damned near is the second coming of Derrick Brooks. He is virtually everywhere on the field.

It is getting to the point where Joe thinks he can catch passes out of a red zone offense. Why would that surprise anyone? [read more]

FYI, the NFL does not want you to go to the Super Bowl so you can freeze your rear end off for five hours.

The ball pops free of Buffalo wide receiver Robert Woods after getting blasted by Darrelle Revis late in the third quarter Sunday.

There were all sorts of plays that could jump out as the best during the Bucs’ beat down of the bungling Bills yesterday.

There was, of course, Bobby Rainey’s pace-setting, 80-yard touchdown run seconds into the game.

Joe’s favorite, however, was good, old-fashioned football by the defense, specifically Darrelle Revis. In this vanilla, watered down, offensive-stats-loving, fake- (fantasy) football-focused, lawsuit-paranoid, flag-football-trending state of the NFL, it warmed Joe’s heart to see a receiver get blown up and no defender flagged for trying too hard.

“Get outta here, kid.”

Joe shared a story earlier about Mike Glennon’s perfectionist ways.

But Greg Schiano has put a stop, albeit for 24 hours, to Glennon’s savage intensity. [read more]

Per Greg Schiano this afternoon, Jeremy Zuttah “has a shoulder” and is “day-to-day.” Davin Joseph has a shoulder. And emerging rookie defensive lineman William Gholston is being treated for a head injury and is going through the NFL’s head injury protocol.

Superhero (though not the Flash) Vincent Jackson came out of the game well with his troubled hamstring.

After defying the fantasy crowd’s core beliefs and delivering a victory with heinous numbers yesterday, Mike Glennon is no doubt trying to forget his 9-for-25 performance that netted just 90 yards.

For this week, Glennon is dusting off the “Stats Are For Losers” line in Raheem Morris’ old locker at One Buc Palace.

But Glennon did have his share of superior throws, and two were lost touchdowns, one caught by Vincent Jackson but thieved by a stupid NFL rule. And the other hit Tiquan Underwood in the chest. [read more]

Joe actually had to do a hyper double-take last night (you know, like in the Bugs Bunny cartoons) when he was reading quotes from Bucs commander Greg Schiano about the difference in this team.

Schiano was asked if this was the same team, that has now won four of its last five games, as the dreadful winless one during the first half of the season. To Joe’s absolute amazement, Schiano doesn’t think there is much of a change. [read more]
