Joe loves an ice cold Big Storm beer and quality barroom football debate.

So last year, Super Bowl-season hero linebacker Devin White wanted out of Tampa and the Bucs implored him to stick around. (more…)

“Rachaad, you read it wrong.”

Joe is always curious about bench players on elite units. That’s kind of how the Tampa Bay found Bucs sacks king Shaq Barrett, who now plays for the Dolphins. (more…)

Liam Coen breakdown.

New Bucs offensive coordinator Liam Coen is sort of a mystery to Joe and most fans. We know he began Baker Mayfield’s turnaround and he helped groom an NFL quarterback at Kentucky, Will Levis. (more…)

Bucs old/new safety Jordan Whitehead.

New Bucs safety Jordan Whitehead, the 2020 Super Bowl safety, had one theme running through the press conference yesterday announcing his return to the team that drafted him: (more…)

Big Baker Mayfield fan.

Outside of Baker Mayfield’s agent and his wife, Joe found the happiest person  in America that Mayfield re-signed a three-year contract that could pay him more than $100 million. (more…)

Philadelphia-bound.

Not a shocker: Devin White is no longer with the Bucs. Per Jordan Schultz of Bleacher Report, White signed a one-year, prove-it deal with the Eagles yesterday. He could pocket $7.5 million. (more…)

Bone-crushing Bucs Super Bowl safety Jordan Whitehead signed with Tampa Bay this week after two years cashing a check from the mess that is the New York Jets.

Today, Whitehead was in front of Tampa Bay media talking about returning to his first NFL home. (more…)

Baker Mayfield joins NFL Network.

So why did Buccaneers Ring of Honor general manager Jason Licht call Baker Mayfield a “pr!ck” yesterday at Mayfield’s celebration news conference honoring his new three-year contract?

Mayfield tried to answer that on NFL Network. (more…)

Former Bucs playcaller Dave Canales gets candid.

Head coach Todd Bowles is no micromanager when it comes to his offensive coordinators. But the Bowles influence on the offense is real.

Consider what ex-Bucs offensive coordinator Dave Canales said in an exclusive sitdown with Joe. (more…)

Joe had an off-microphone moment with Todd Bowles at the NFL Scouting Combine and asked him about going from being expected to suck in 2023 to inevitably moving to a favorite status in 2024, assuming the Bucs’ key pieces return in free agency. (more…)

Having fun.

It’s early March in the midst of college basketball tournaments. It’s not even St. Patrick’s Day. Shoot, the Bucs haven’t had an OTA practice yet and if they could, there is no practice field to use at One Buc Palace. (more…)

New nickname?

Around One Buc Palace, the shot-callers believe Bucs quarterback Baker Mayfield is a “pr!ck.” And with the Bucs, that’s a good thing. (more…)

Get. Him.

Joe is seriously thinking about making this a weekday column with the same headline daily. For every drip of the faucet, for every day that goes by that this is not addressed, Joe gets more and more stressed if not p!ssed. (more…)

Tampa Bay not just puckheads.

This isn’t exactly No. 1 bullsh!t. (more…)

Recently traded Bucs cornerback Carlton Davis was introduced to Detroit Lions media today.

The Bucs dumped a “Gravedigger” two days ago and added one today.

The departed one, former Bucs No. 1 cornerback Carlton Davis, met with the Detroit media this afternoon. Joe enjoyed the fun with a plate of Hooters wings and an ice cold Big Storm beer (Bromosa). (more…)

“Tough” call.

We all sort of guessed it, but now it is confirmed. (more…)

Bone-crushing safety Jordan Whitehead is back where he started.

Joe loves when listeners of the Ira Kaufman Podcast get A-list insight, and that happened multiple times this past week. (more…)

Back home.

There were rumblings on social media from Bucs players/defenders over the weekend this may happen. And it did. (more…)

Is Todd Bowles somehow great for the salary cap? (more…)

The Bucs GM shared today how he was hounded by his head coach religiously.

Later today, Joe will share an exclusive look at how Todd Bowles has an influence on the Buccaneers offense.

Today, Buccaneers Ring of Honor general manager Jason Licht gave a different kind of taste. (more…)

Baker Mayfield speaks.

Everyone paying attention knows Baker Mayfield’s new contract is a fraction of what comparable fellow Pro Bowl quarterback Kirk Cousins got on his new deal with the Falcons. (more…)
