Todd Bowles got a good laugh from his new offensive coordinator.

“We really like Ke’Shawn [Vaughn]. We’ve always liked Ke’Shawn. I know he’s been with us for three years, but he really hasn’t gotten opportunities. When he has, he’s done some good things.”

— Bucs GM Jason Licht.

When Bucs AC/DC-loving general manager Jason Licht spoke the highlighted words above at the combine before the TV klieglights of NFL Network, BSPN, FOX Sports, CBS, NFL Network, Peacock and SiriusXM NFL Radio, NFL broadcast partners all, it really got the attention of Bucs fourth-year running back Ke’Shawn Vaughn back in Florida.

Bucs coach Todd Bowles.

These stats are just infuriating to Joe. But, do they tell a deeper story? (more…)

Bucs coach Todd Bowles.

So let’s take a brief look at the Bucs. (more…)

One of Todd Bowles’ loyal soldiers made it crystal clear that the Bowles way on offense is about running the football effectively. (more…)

Great candor from the Bucs’ new playcaller.

Joe’s a big fan of new Bucs offensive coordinator Dave Canales. Great vision, great energy, great communicator, great approach.

But can he succeed as a playcaller in eight weeks? (more…)

Buccaneers QB competitor Kyle Trask.

Bucs offensive coordinator Dave Canales is quick to admit he’s spreading the secret sauce from Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll all over the Tampa Bay offense. (more…)
