Chris Godwin.

This may make some people call in sick to work this morning. (more…)

Exactly a month ago today when the Bucs lost to the Broncos, Joe was outraged. When the Bucs choked away a win against the Dixie Chicks, Joe was as p!ssed off as he has ever been at a Bucs loss. Still is. (more…)

What next?

In a couple of hours last night, the Bucs went from one of the best teams in the NFC if not the league, and perhaps the best team in the NFC South, to looking like a team that will have a top-10 pick in the draft. (more…)

“It’s going to be tough.”

So what are the Bucs going to do for an offense now? (more…)

Can he fix the defense?

As a commenter on this here site typed on Monday night: (more…)

Every week this season Joe is impressed by third-year cornerback Zyon McCollum. (more…)

Air left the balloon.

Joe doesn’t have field access in any NFL stadium. So at times, the only way Joe can judge what’s happening on the bench is by sight. (more…)

Game (season?) turned on injury.

Color Joe unconvinced that the Bucs have a defense capable of being counted on to win games when the offense is sputtering. That was very evident tonight at The Licht House. (more…)

Joe is having trouble digesting how far the Bucs defense has fallen. (more…)

How bad?

Could the Bucs season hinge on an upcoming injury report? Well, if you judge what happened in the second quarter and late in the game Monday night, it could. (more…)

Baker Mayfield owned up to “dumb” throws tonight and lamented the loss of the Bucs’ star receivers after the 41-31 loss to the Ravens. (more…)

UPDATED: Todd Bowles delivered the news on the Buccaneers Radio Network. Chris Godwin’s serious injury is an ankle.

Is it broken? Bowles gave no details.

UPDATE: Per Ira Kaufman, Bowles said in his postgame remarks that the Bucs thought Godwin may have a dislocated ankle.

Joe was in the stadium tunnel near the Bucs’ locker room when Godwin suffered his injury. He was taken to an X-ray/examination room.

Joe did see what police confirmed to Joe was Godwin’s family jogging through the tunnel hurrying to the exam room to be with him.

Prayers are with Chris Godwin tonight.

He suffered a major ankle injury with the game out of reach. Why he was on the field, Joe has no idea. (more…)

With apologies to Zyon McCollum and Cade Otton, Joe feels comfortable saying the Bucs were not ready for prime time tonight.

But the Bucs have great leadership, Joe. Pfffft!

Tampa Bay’s defense was embarrassed after the Ravens’ opening drive. Baltimore scored on their next six possessions. Ballgame. (more…)

Huge game at The Licht House with the Ravens and Bucs each sporting 4-2 records, high-octane offenses and Super Bowl dreams.

Comment all game long with fellow fans and a few haters. 

Play nice. Go Bucs!

Gamer.

So Buccaneers No. 1 (?) cornerback Jamel Dean will miss at least four games after being placed on injured reserve today with a hamstring injury. (more…)

Joe had a bounce-back Week 6 and is now 6-5 on the season after a Week 1 focused on futures wagers.

Joe highlights Bucs-related lines weekly in this space and how Joe is — and is not — throwing cash around.

Or is it finished? (more…)
