Offenses explode on Bucs.
Disturbing numbers for a defense coached up by a defensive-minded head coach. (more…)

Playoff percentage.
Well, this is something very interesting to Joe. (more…)

Bucco Bruce Arians
The remaining Bucs opponents have a combined record of 24-47. (more…)

So Joe sat down to listen to an interview today with retired Giants fan-favorite receiver Victor Cruz.
Why? Because Cruz caught passes from Bucs offensive coordinator Liam Coen in college, and he stays tight with the Giants, the Bucs opponent on Sunday. (more…)
