When this Buc season of despair mercifully concludes, some misguided souls will argue that a slew of injuries on defense derailed a promising start.
Some will point to the absence of Mitch Unrein, Vernon Hargreaves, Chris Conte and Kwon Alexander as key factors in Tampa Bay’s demoralizing collapse. And they would be wrong.
Dead wrong. (more…)

Dirk Koetter said last week’s decision was close. This one shouldn’t be.
If Koetter has the audacity to announce Ryan Fitzpatrick as his starter Sunday against the 49ers, it can mean only one thing – the man wants to get fired. (more…)

Here we are again on Buccaneer Boulevard, talking about finishing out a lost season with pride.
We’re all too familiar with this scenario as Buc fans head toward Thanksgiving with one eye on the cranberry sauce and another on the next NFL draft.
Brent Grimes talks to Ira
It’s painful to look at the standings and even more painful to remember that this team was once the talk of the league.

Let’s not kid ourselves — it’s over.
The breathtaking promise of the opening two weeks has turned into harsh reality. This will be an 11th consecutive Buc season without a playoff berth, followed by a regime change.
