Breakdown of Jameis.

Joe always enjoys watching the “Move the Sticks” videos pumped out by the NFL, co-hosted by former NFL scout and college quarterback Daniel Jeremiah and former NFL player Bucky Brooks.

Really good educational stuff in these videos. (more…)

Joe noticed some fans, fully using their rear-view mirrors, believed the Bucs made a mistake in not picking up the fifth-year option for Doug Martin. (more…)

Top NFL rookie?

The sad thing is, there are but six games left in the NFL regular season. (Notice Joe had to qualify that statement with “regular season?”) Before you know it, the playoffs are here. (more…)

It may not have showed up on TV, but Jameis Winston, America’s Quarterback, was seen out of the offensive huddle a couple of times in the first quarter yesterday. (more…)

Lovie explains his post-win ways

Lovie Smith isn’t jumping in pools, drinking wine in South Tampa with Joe Maddon, or running around the Tampa Bay area hollering in ecstasy, like former Bucs quarterback Shaun King says he’s been doing since yesterday. (more…)

Center Joe Hawley gives a deeper look into the surging O-line

The last Buccaneer player to leave the victorious locker room yesterday, starting center Joe Hawley, was putting on a tie and patiently packing up his things while talking to Joe.

There wasn’t much bonding going on, but there was plenty of talk about bonding. (more…)

Dirk Koetter has found a trustworthy target

An under-the-radar stat of the Bucs’ offense is wide receiver Adam Humphries inhaling a big percentage of what’s been thrown his way. (more…)

Look what two wins in a row can do:

The Tampa Bay community is riding cloud nine this morning after the Bucs seal-clubbed the Eagles yesterday. (more…)

Meltdown in Philly.

Eagles fans are completely and totally melting down this morning in the City of Brotherly Love, not quite 24 hours after the Bucs seal-clubbed their beloved birds 45-17. (more…)

Deep love

Gerald McCoy loves America’s Quarterback, Jameis Winston, but a reason might surprise you. (more…)

Lovie Smith is known behind the scenes as an organized guy, a guy with goals and plans and a system.

Oh, don’t you dare question that system. Lovie will tell you it’s a proven winner and shut you down if he sniffs a whiff of doubt. (more…)

The menacing and punishing Bucs offense also is a very dangerous bunch.

Buccaneers Radio Network Xs and Os guru Dave Moore, the former Tampa Bay tight end, touched on the subject this morning on WDAE-AM 620. (more…)

FSU coach Jimbo Fisher discusses the five-touchdown game his most famous QB pupil had Sunday.

So while Bucs fans were chugging mass quantities of alcoholic beverages over the five-touchdown performance of America’s Quarterback, Bucs signal-caller Jameis Winston, the man who coached him up in college was on radio talking about the game. (more…)

Jameis makes the Bucs relevant again. (Photo courtesy of Buccaneers.com)

Joe understands why Tampa Bay fans stomp their feet because national types don’t talk much about the team and few if any games are broadcast in primetime.

TV networks are not about what is fair. (more…)

Welcome to Victory Monday, Bucs fans!

Welcome to a playoff chase. Yes, really!

And you know how this all started? It started with the drafting of America’s Quarterback, Bucs signal-caller Jameis Winston. (more…)

Bucs director of player personnel Jon Robinson, left, joins Bucs GM Jason Licht and Licht’s children in the traditional victory-postgame-plunge-with-the-suits-on last night.

So the “Fire the Cannonballs” tradition is growing. (more…)

Emotional Lovie.

Yes, Joe gets a kick out of Bucs fans who kvetch that Lovie isn’t some cartoon character on the sidelines.

Lovie is a stoic figure during the games, unless Akeem Spence does something dumb. That’s usually because Lovie is deep in thought. A man in control. (more…)
