Brutal prediction.

If this plays out, Joe is confident the Bucs will have a rookie quarterback and a new and possible rookie head coach in 2024. (more…)

The regular-season opener is almost upon us as the Bucs prepare for Justin Jefferson and the Vikings.

There’s always pressure heading into a new year, but not everyone feels the same heat. Here are the five Bucs facing the most scrutiny in 2023: (more…)

Bucs QB Baker Mayfield.

It’s almost a universal belief outside of Florida that Baker Mayfield will implode at quarterback and Kyle Trask is little more than a valet waiting to hand the keys to the Bucs franchise to Drake Maye or another college quarterback next spring. (more…)

Another former quarterback analyst has joined those singing the tune of Baker Mayfield being very capable of reviving his career in a big way. (more…)

Involved in offense.

Yes, Todd Bowles is a defensive guy. He pretty much leaves the offense alone. Or so fans thought. (more…)

Mic’ed up.

Joe doesn’t want to see a coaching change. Never does. That means things are going bad for the Bucs. Joe doesn’t want that. At all. (more…)

49ers QB Trey Lance.

No, Joe doesn’t believe this will happen. Not when we don’t know if the Bucs will be drafting a quarterback next spring in the first round. (more…)

“We’re going to run it.”

Perhaps the biggest concern Joe has with the 2023 Bucs is not at quarterback or everyone’s favorite punching bag, the offensive line. (more…)

Baker Mayfield.

Joe found a comment at One Buc Palace today about Baker Mayfield interesting as it relates to players coming off the Tom Brady experience. (more…)

YaYa Diaby (0) participates in barrel drills as Logan Hall (90) and Vita Vea (50) look on.

Underwear football today at Bucs training camp. So no hitting. Joe didn’t even notice more than one or two plays with incidental contact. Since No. 3 QB John Wolford did not participate, nursing his injury from the Jets game, starter Baker Mayfield and backup Kyle Trask got loads of reps. (more…)

Center Robert Hainsey.

Tampa Bay offensive coordinator Dave Canales was talking offensive line today. (more…)

Baker Mayfield didn’t just get named Tampa Bay’s starting quarterback, he won the job by beating out a real NFL starter. (more…)

Rookie receiver Trey Palmer.

All this guy is doing is making plays. (more…)

How to get paid.

It seems all is good between Bucs disgruntled linebacker Devin White and the Bucs. It’s August where everyone is happy and every team is going to make a deep playoff run. (more…)

“Play-action? I don’t know what you’re talking about. That’s fantasy football. We just do what we do.”

Come Week 1 when the Bucs are battling the Vikings in Minneapolis with the echos of “Skol!” loudly bouncing through the ship-shaped crib, Joe is confident Bucs fans at times will wonder if they turned on the wrong game. (more…)

Todd Bowles and numbers.

Yesterday, Joe asked Todd Bowles an analytics question about turnovers. That prompted a follow-up question later for Bowles dealing with analytics in general. (more…)
