Big picture, people. Big picture.

Some Buc fans don’t want to hear it, but this organization is doing the exact right thing regarding Mike Evans and a contract extension. The franchise is keeping its options open, much to the dismay of Buc Nation.

More than a few Tampa Bay fans can’t imagine life without Evans in a Buc uniform. Get over it. It’s not personal, it’s just business. (more…)

Tired of the folks outside the Tampa Bay area shatting on the Bucs? It’s starting to get old for Joe too. At least we have a game to focus on in a few hours when Bucs coach Todd Bowles is expected to speak. (more…)

Bucs coach Todd Bowles.

Even our friends in the desert think the Bucs will be a doormat. (more…)

While which players are named team captains may matter little, sometimes who isn’t captain or why coaches trying to manipulate their teams’ captaincy is important and telling. (more…)

Dissed.

Those who see the NFL world in simple terms have a kindred spirit on a popular hollering show. (more…)

While Peter King sees Tampa Bay as an obvious loser team that likely could be knocking of the door of the NFL basement this season, a man with intimate knowledge of the Bucs and experience as decision-maker sees something different. (more…)

Bucs GM Jason Licht.

The Bucs last year were the oldest team in the NFL. And at times it showed. (more…)

Betting the Bucs is a fun exercise, and extra intriguing this season with the Bucs being profound underdogs in the eyes of the oddsmakers and the bettors.

However, Joe has detected a shift. (more…)

Jason Licht weighs in on NFL super insider Peter King.

It seems Buccaneers fans got to renowned NBC Sports super insider Peter King, so much so that he said of fans complaining about him picking teams to stink, “It drives me crazy.” (more…)

“Mark, this agent needs a diaper.”

Bucs fans have busy arguing about team-first Mike Evans going me-first and barking publicly about a new contract as a new era rapidly approaches under Baker Mayfield with a revamped offense.

A former Bucs general manager has joined the debate. (more…)

Tradebait says NFL insider.

“Julio, I’m not ancient like you!”

It’s not just Mike Evans. (more…)

If you dig into the words offered by Mike Evans’ agent, Deryk Gilmore, at least on face value it doesn’t appear the hangup with Evans’ getting re-signed is necessarily because of Bucs AC/DC-loving general manager Jason Licht. (more…)

Chimes in on Mike Evans drama.

Yes, it has come to this. Folks are trying to cherry-pick where Mike Evans should be playing, if not this year certainly next. (more…)
