Buccaneers savior linebacker Devin White seems to be significantly past his prime at just 25 years old.

Hey, the guy spoiled Bucs fans in 2020 and 2021. And now he just looks, well, spoiled. (more…)

The Bucs may not be a very good club at 3-4, but Joe was highly impressed by the team’s fight tonight in Buffalo.

The Bills punted on their final four drives. (more…)

Almost.

Oh, what could have been. (more…)

Why?

Joe cannot begin to count the number of football games Joe has seen since first getting hooked on the game in grade school. Tonight was a first. (more…)

Bucs coach Todd Bowles.

Man, this season is really starting to have the same stench as last year. Only difference is this year the Bucs don’t have the greatest quarterback of all time to bail their asses out. (more…)

Tonight the Bucs couldn’t stop the run or the pass, but otherwise the defense was on point.

As crazy as that sounds, it’s sort of true.

Again the defense made big plays but it wasn’t nearly enough as the offense didn’t possess the pop to be dangerous. That’s it; Joe believes the Bucs have found their 2023 identity. (more…)

Huge game for the Bucs. Time to right the pirate ship.

Comment all game long below. Be nice. Be respectful, unless you’re smacking around troll Bills fans or the referees.

Go Bucs!

Scary data.

This past offseason Joe got hammered by some loyal readers whenever Joe brought up the disturbing, gruesome advanced stat numbers for Bucs misplaced slot receiver Rachaad White. (more…)

“I’m not buying it, Baker.”

The venerable Sage of Tampa Bay Sports, JoeBucsFan.com columnist Ira Kaufman, has seen a lot of football while covering the NFL since the mid-1970s. (more…)

Tough days in the Big Easy.

Bucs fans can relate. (more…)

Opportunity awaits.

Reading stats last night and after first getting excited, Joe got depressed and almost angry. (more…)

“I tell you what man, if them Bucs don’t get a dang ol’ running back, they’re going to throw the season away, man. Ew-wee, what a shame!”

Watching Rachaad White try to run the ball is enough to make Jeff Boomhauer quit stuttering. (more…)

Unfair criticism?

Sometimes, Joe thinks people yack up stats just to yack up stats. Zero context. (more…)
