    Well this is early Joe…LFG, gotta start righting the ship and get healthy and better!! 6-0 down the stretch to build confidence and be ready for a tough round 1 home playoff game!

  2. BigBucJoe Says:

    Does anybody else think Bowles will go for two if we score on our first drive?

  3. mluckett Says:

    Play calls need to stay consistent and balance. Take what they give them, don’t force anything, and keep them guessing. Crazy its been 7 weeks since we’ve seen that. Defense can’t get any worse can they? Its only up from there but lose today and its Mayhem for bucs fans and organization as a whole.

    Go Bucs, Sledgren Pearl

  4. firethecannons Says:

    I do not want tricks just good play, we do not have to go for two when not needced

  5. Inwoodjeremy Says:

    I think he kicks the point @BigBuc He might later in the game depending on score.

  6. LCohen7 Says:

    GO BUCS!!!

  7. SBucs Says:

    Today’s game is the beginning of the end for Todd here with the Bucs. He loses it’s over.

  8. Larrd Says:

    Time for offensive line to take control of a game.

  9. HeavyE Says:

    Let’s Win it for Simeon!!! Let Go Bucs!!!

  10. FrontFour Says:

    Take care of Baler. Teddy needs to go back to coaching high school. Watching him in warm ups he so doesn’t care. Just happy to be in the NDL.

  11. NaplesBucsFan Says:

    He’ll, suit Simeon up for the game…probably get a couple sacks for us!!

  12. Buccaneer Bonzai Says:

    Here we go! Win streak inbound!

  13. Winny Testaverde Says:

    A loss today could dim the lights at the “Licht House”. Surely by now all the glazing has made Jason forgive Ira for speaking truth? 🙂

    Come on Bucs…show us your meddle/moxie !

  14. NaplesBucsFan Says:

    So far, we’ve won all the games we were supposed to win…we should go 6-0 to finish the year. LFG BUCS!!
    I’m surprised Baker is playing, I got the same injury to my left shoulder playing basketball a couple months ago and it took me almost 2 weeks to be ready to play again…but I don’t have million dollar doctors and recovery resources…so go Bake

  15. HC Grover Says:

    Looking like Bake will play!

  16. Simeon4HOF Says:

    Let’s go Bics!! Do it for Rice

  17. Simeon4HOF Says:

    Oops lol. Let’s go Bucs! Do it 4 Rice

  18. SBucs13 Says:

    The first play is the same every game. Surprised?

  19. SBucs13 Says:

    What a start!

  20. NaplesBucsFan Says:

    CG14 is BACK!!

  21. Jugheadfla1 Says:

    Why is white starting? Smdh

  22. Steven #55 Says:

    Yay – Godwin

  23. Badbucs Says:

    2 penalties already. It’s like they don’t practice.

  24. Crickett Baker Says:

    I can’t even listen to the game from my desktop. Its just not workinhttps://www.joebucsfan.com/2025/11/ira-kaufmans-10-takeaways-from-bucs-rams-6/g! DAMNIT~!!!

  25. Warren Brooks Lynch Says:

    Gotta get the dang play off! These penalties lead to punts

  26. HC Grover Says:

    whoopsie

  27. Jugheadfla1 Says:

    JSN EE is not

  28. NaplesBucsFan Says:

    Damnit Buka!!!

  29. D-Mac Says:

    Sans for one play, this team looks so unprepared to start the game. Don’t blame Todd the Toad, whatever you do

  30. BuccoDav Says:

    aaarrgh!

  31. sunny Says:

    ugh egbuka has to catch that.

  32. Chuckys Bucs Says:

    Rookie of the Year. Another game that Baker is the only offensive player that gives a damn

  33. firethecannons Says:

    we will need to run it

  34. cmurda Says:

    Well, so mu8ch for Egbukas hands. Dude drops at least 1 a game. Unacceptable

  35. Alvin Scissors Harper Says:

    Egbuka with a terrible drop!

  36. Warren Brooks Lynch Says:

    Great play Kam Johnson!

  37. buc4evr Says:

    Baker better screaming at EE on the sidelines. That is not acceptable.

  38. D-Mac Says:

    Ebuka has more drops this year than I can count

  39. cmurda Says:

    The talk here will be about Baker as these drops get forgotten about

  40. Francisco Says:

    Butter hands.

  41. unbelievable Says:

    EE has to catch that come on kid!

    Another wasted opening drive by the Bucs

  42. Show Me the TDs Says:

    The offense looks like they just started the playing.together…today.

  43. PSLBucfan Says:

    Rookie of the year…..not.

  44. Inwoodjeremy Says:

    First drive – offside, delay of game, dropped pass, punt.

  45. Alvin Scissors Harper Says:

    Can we bring in Bucky for the next series please?

  46. Tim Says:

    That’s what you get for giving guys half the week of and have a soft ass head coach.

    Unprepared, soft football. Egbuka looking like a big bust 2nd half of the season. Can’t catch a cold.

  47. Dan the Bucs Fan Says:

    He drops a lot of passes but decent first drive! Pinned them back time to find out if Reddick really does make as much difference as it seems!

  48. Steven #55 Says:

    Another opening drive and no points
    No danger of replacing the offensive coordinator this offseason

  49. Gofortheface30 Says:

    Keep it up Emeka – or that rookie receiver in Carolina will be walking away with that ROY. Small ask: can you pretty please stop DROPPING A F’ING PASS EVERY-SINGLE -GAME

  50. Badbucs Says:

    4 mistakes already. Way to get them ready Todd.

  51. cmurda Says:

    Constant stupidity on this team. All this is a result of a lack of accountability and coaching. Egbuka should sit at least 1 series.

  52. Tim Says:

    Bowles is on the spectrum. Grizzard a HS coach.

  53. BucsFan81 Says:

    I am on cruise can’t really watch the game. Looks like from the comments they are starting off where they left off last week

  54. Texas Bucs Fan Says:

    You cannot biame the OC for dropping a pass

  55. buc4evr Says:

    here we go. Zyon.

  56. Gofortheface30 Says:

    Immediately going at Zyon, a most excellent strategy

  57. Jmarkbuc Says:

    Arizona knows who McCollum is

  58. Jugheadfla1 Says:

    But yet their offense has no problem carving up our trash D

  59. rock1051 Says:

    Mayfield eludes 1 sack, gets sacked same old same old def sitting on short routes cause he ain’t got no time

  60. SC Bucs Fan Says:

    Right away go at Zyon

  61. heyjude Says:

    Come on Bucs, get a turnover!

  62. Outrigger Says:

    Picking on Zion right out of the gate

  63. Jmarkbuc Says:

    This is the stand and watch defense, pathetic

  64. Crickett Baker Says:

    You guys better stop manifesting a losing game!!!!’

  65. buc4evr Says:

    he saw it, should have jumped the route.

  66. Jugheadfla1 Says:

    Lol….Reddick in coverage already

  67. SBucs13 Says:

    The cardinals slash the defense. Defense doesn’t stop anyone.

  68. Faspro Says:

    Reddick in coverage

  69. Outrigger Says:

    This Defense is trash

  70. Chad Says:

    Boy I can see what’s going to happen with the defense today

  71. buc4evr Says:

    no one on the edge.

  72. unbelievable Says:

    Brisset about to have a career day today?

    Someone sets a record every week vs the Tampa defense. Just target McCollum every time.

  73. Mhystc Says:

    They know Zyon is our worst corner, so they target him.

  74. Davenport Says:

    Nice coverage by Reddick — WTF!!!

  75. BuccoDav Says:

    I hate that our pass rushers are in coverage!

  76. Tim Says:

    Great tackling.

  77. LFG Bucs Says:

    Brissett is going to put up large numbers against our defense. Just need to keep them from scoring majors.

  78. buc4evr Says:

    pitch and catch. easy peasy

  79. Show Me the TDs Says:

    The Bucs look like crap, again.

  80. Chad Says:

    Please fire Todd bowels for the love of god

  81. Jugheadfla1 Says:

    Game over already?

  82. Faspro Says:

    0 pass rush

  83. Jor Jor Binks Says:

    Have we become allergic to wearing red and pewter? It’s constant white on white (which I get to start the season, but didn’t matter to Dungy and Gruden) or red on white under Bowles

    For the love of goodness can we start wearing our white on pewter and red on pewter more like we did in our glory years. We weren’t averse to them then, so what changed 🤷‍♂️

  84. Davenport Says:

    Now Diaby in coverage — fire Bowles right now!

  85. D-Mac Says:

    This team looks like sh!t on both sides of the ball

  86. Warren Brooks Lynch Says:

    @Bucsfan81

    Enjoy, but yes defeat by a thousand cuts. Flags, drops, and lacking rhythm

  87. buc4evr Says:

    d line is getting owned

  88. Jmarkbuc Says:

    This defense is pathetic

  89. Darengibo Says:

    Brissett carving up the secondary like turkey

  90. Alvin Scissors Harper Says:

    Five starting plays all big plays for Arizona. Our defense is just AWFUL.

  91. SC Bucs Fan Says:

    What will it take for ownership to set up and insist the Bucs get a real defensive coordinator

  92. BucU Says:

    All day to throw. God damn embarrassing man.

  93. cmurda Says:

    Todds defense folks. Looking good D Line and secondar4y. Zyon baby

  94. HopetheBucswin Says:

    Cardinals look like a Superbowl team against us. Fire over confident mistake prone clueless Bowles!

  95. Buc in VA Says:

    Gash Fest in effect.

  96. Gipper Says:

    Zyon looks bored again.

  97. Mhystc Says:

    If we lose, there’s no reason to keep Bowles.. losing to the cardinals will be an all time low.

  98. Chad Says:

    I wish baker could play Bucs defense every week, he would average 300 and 3 touchdowns a game

  99. Mac Says:

    This team has quit. This is embarrassing. And FOR THE LOVE OF God do we start with the ball every game.

  100. Jugheadfla1 Says:

    The most flaccid D in the NFL…..hands down

  101. Badbucs Says:

    No clue on defense.

  102. SBucs13 Says:

    Todd really knows defense as well as my grandmother.

  103. BucU Says:

    This team totally sucks.

  104. unbelievable Says:

    ZERO PRESSURE.

    Meanwhile Baker running for his life on every play behind our “vaunted” offensive line.

  105. Chris Says:

    The Cardinals and Brissett getting first downs like nothing and our O is playing 2 and 20 🤣🤣🤣

  106. firethecannons Says:

    unless things change we lose

  107. Warren Brooks Lynch Says:

    AZ’s Right guard keeps jumping early in pass pro

  108. Faspro Says:

    Can’t stop the run or the pass

  109. sunny Says:

    ugh this defense is embarrassing. too bad we don’t have a defensive guru for a head coach…

  110. PSLBucfan Says:

    Can’t tackle…just basic stuff.

  111. UKBuccaneer Says:

    Has anyone declared the ball game over yet? Sorry, I’m late on this evening.

  112. Boltsfan17 Says:

    Soft and pathetic team. Maybe if the Cards hang 40 on this joke team, changes will come.

  113. SBucs13 Says:

    Defense has wrong people and bad coaching a winning combination.

  114. HopetheBucswin Says:

    Somebody tell them it’s tackle football. So soft out there.

  115. NaplesBucsFan Says:

    So damn easy!!

  116. Josh Says:

    If hes not fired this week Im DONE with this team been a Bucs fan for 30 years I cant watch this crap anymore I have said it week after week im about to turn off the TV already…

  117. BucU Says:

    Bowles you are honestly terrible at your job. RESIGN.

  118. Gipper Says:

    Defense is a joke. Have to play it better. Coach it better. Communicate it better.

  119. Jorge Says:

    Bumbling idiots..not a clue. Cardinals moving the ball
    W no.problem.

  120. MegaFailure Says:

    defense straight doodoo feces fecal matter

  121. Buc in VA Says:

    Braswell. Swallowed up and never to be seen again following the snap.

  122. Jugheadfla1 Says:

    Anyone going to cover the middle? ANYONE?

  123. JA Says:

    Come on boys, let’s not start the game by giving up a 95 yard TD drive.
    Then again, would any of us be shocked?

  124. Chris Says:

    🤣🤣🤣🤣

  125. LakelandSteve Says:

    Bowles already has Hassan Reddick dropping into coverage. What a waste

  126. buc4evr Says:

    easy passes all the way down the field. This defense is getting owned. embarrassing.

  127. Bakerfan Says:

    Defenders of Bowles are clueless

  128. HC Grover Says:

    Alls I can say id Pfffffth!

  129. What the heck Says:

    Business as usual….defense stinks

  130. Alvin Scissors Harper Says:

    Right down the GD field! So soft!

  131. firethecannons Says:

    so easy for them

  132. Jorge Says:

    The Mighty Cardinals

  133. SBucs13 Says:

    Not rush, poor tackling, bad coaching. 92 yards drive. Easy.

  134. Show Me the TDs Says:

    This.team is absolutely gutless!

  135. Angelo Says:

    Our defense has just deteriorated. WTF

  136. SB~LV Says:

    Next Head coach should be a defensive minded coach

  137. Outrigger Says:

    We can’t even stop the run anymore. Pathetic

  138. Jmarkbuc Says:

    Stop freaking dancing. The defense still sucks. Got a lucky bounce.

  139. Jugheadfla1 Says:

    Bowels bailed out by a deflection

  140. Darengibo Says:

    Aw31!!!

  141. BucU Says:

    Could we look any more lethargic?

  142. Bakerfan Says:

    Just lucky

  143. Texas Bucs Fan Says:

    Good looking defense. Definitely Super Bowl contenders

  144. Badbucs Says:

    Good job Dean.

  145. BuccoDav Says:

    Wow! Bend but don’t break?

  146. Buc in VA Says:

    If luck is what it takes, then I’ll take luck.

  147. LFG Bucs Says:

    Good job Winfield. Dean should have had that.

  148. Jorge Says:

    We are pathetic. So difficult to stop anyone and our offense struggling
    To put 3 plays together. Embarassing

  149. Dan the Bucs Fan Says:

    We finally make a play on defense!

  150. Warren Brooks Lynch Says:

    There ya go!

  151. firethecannons Says:

    the only way we can stop a drive thank gawd

  152. heyjude Says:

    Dean and Winfield!

  153. NaplesBucsFan Says:

    The backup QB is our best defender so far…he’ll of a catch by AWJ though

  154. Alvin Scissors Harper Says:

    Well, we’ll take it!

  155. Oldbucsfan Says:

    That’s the only way they can stop then is if they turn the ball over.

  156. JA Says:

    Got lucky.
    But I’ll take it.

  157. buc4evr Says:

    Now wake the F up offense.

  158. Gipper Says:

    Lucky tip for interception.

  159. NaplesBucsFan Says:

    This drive will tell us how this game is gonna go…gotta put up points every drive the rest of the game.
    LFG

  160. TheVerv7 Says:

    So pretty much if our DEC don’t get an INT other teams are scoring Everytime.

  161. Jorge Says:

    Lucky bounce and let’s now see what we do with it

  162. Angelo Says:

    I will take the luck, but purely embarrassing

  163. unbelievable Says:

    Classic Winfield: makes a splash play and everyone will forget how average he is for the other 99% of the game.

    Who thinks the offense can score 7 here?

  164. Mhystc Says:

    Keep Dean, get rid of Zyon this offseason. Trade him to the raiders let him go be bored with his twin.

  165. buc4evr Says:

    O line needs to man up.

  166. Warren Brooks Lynch Says:

    We complaining about turnovers now?

  167. Dan the Bucs Fan Says:

    Honestly sometimes one big play can snap you out of a terrible funk! Maybe that pick calms us down gets us back focosed and playing with passion. Let’s hope but somebody has to make a play to restore some kind of confidence in this defense!

  168. Addb Says:

    Sounds like they are all a lot more hurt than the injury report says

  169. Mac Says:

    Why isn’t Dean covering Harrison? Harrison is going to have 200 yards today with Zyon I get bored McCollum defending him. That right there should be a firable offense.

  170. SteveK Says:

    Champing at the bit for a victory today, go Bucs!

  171. buc4evr Says:

    EE needs to get a grip

  172. Jugheadfla1 Says:

    Don’t get it twisted, that is literally the only way we can get off the field on D

  173. SBucs13 Says:

    Punter Riley Dixon needs to have a big game today…

  174. Badbucs Says:

    This is Bowles defensive philosophy. Depends on a mistake by the other team.

  175. TheVerv7 Says:

    Drinking Game: take a shot every time a DL drops back into coverage.

  176. Jmarkbuc Says:

    2 yard loss. Nice.

  177. Buc in VA Says:

    Griz up the middle. How imaginative.

  178. Mike Johnson Says:

    Don’t sleep on the AZ Cards. They have lost 4 games by 3 pts or less. They play hard and will keep coming. We gotta get off the snide.

  179. What the heck Says:

    Nice gift from Cards Qb

  180. Warren Brooks Lynch Says:

    The plan: put Bucky in and cross your fingers

  181. BuccoDav Says:

    TheVerv7 Says:
    November 30th, 2025 at 1:23 pm
    Drinking Game: take a shot every time a DL drops back into coverage.

    Can anyone drink that much?

  182. heyjude Says:

    There goes Bucky! Yay!

  183. ATLBuc Says:

    Baker’s throwing the ball a lot better

  184. Simeon4HOF Says:

    Welcome back Bucky

  185. LFG Bucs Says:

    Wow. NOT up the middle??!!

  186. ATLBuc Says:

    I spoke too soon!

  187. BuccoDav Says:

    C’mon, Baker!

  188. Jugheadfla1 Says:

    That was a TD to Tez, nice miss

  189. HC Grover Says:

    Bucky is buckin

  190. Warren Brooks Lynch Says:

    High and away

  191. ElioT Says:

    BS call

  192. Badbucs Says:

    Bad call

  193. Jugheadfla1 Says:

    How in the hell is that holding?

  194. ModHairKen Says:

    Cade Otton can’t block. He can’t catch. He’s a useless player

  195. Faspro Says:

    What, that’s not a hold!

  196. Badbucs Says:

    Another bad call

  197. Faspro Says:

    The fix is in

  198. BuccoDav Says:

    screwed again!

  199. Steven #55 Says:

    That was not a penalty

  200. D-Mac Says:

    They need to be able to challenge all calls so we can expose these refs for the complete joke they are

  201. Ricardo Says:

    The fix is in. Terrible call.

  202. Tim Says:

    Hope that ref dies on the field.

  203. Warren Brooks Lynch Says:

    Defeat by a thousand cuts, big positive play called back by a phantom hold smh

  204. Mr_Barf Says:

    Garbage Refs

  205. ATLBuc Says:

    We keep getting shafted by the refs

  206. HC Grover Says:

    Pffffttth again….

  207. Jugheadfla1 Says:

    This O line is turds

  208. Daniel Z Says:

    Ridiculous call. Penalized for pancake-ing your opponent.

  209. Darengibo Says:

    We are struggling enough on our own, without refs piling on

  210. NaplesBucsFan Says:

    Unbelievable garbage call by the ref…that should be a fine against the damn ref…it was a 30 yard PENALTY for NOTHING!!!!!

  211. Boltsfan17 Says:

    More WWE style officiating. Maybe spend less time virtue signaling and more on officiating quality.

  212. cmurda Says:

    No hold followed by shutting the play down. This O Line is a joke. Thanks Licht for making moves.

  213. rrsrq Says:

    Kinda hard to play bad and play the refs too

  214. BuccoDav Says:

    Grizz gotta call some quicker hitting plays. The oline is struggling today.

  215. Stallworth Says:

    Refs didn’t cause that sack though

  216. Dan the Bucs Fan Says:

    We just held a team scoreless for a Quarter! Baby steps!

  217. ElioT Says:

    This is going to be a long game.

    Thankfully it’s an early one.

  218. Outrigger Says:

    Oline is still struggling

  219. Chad Says:

    Refs single handily ruined that drive

  220. SC Bucs Fan Says:

    Nice post Tim crawl back under your rock

  221. Obvious One Says:

    P@ssy O Line

  222. Buc in VA Says:

    So Wirfs absolutely destroys a defender, better than textbook. Renders him useless and helpless and they call a hold.

  223. SteveK Says:

    Josh Sweat- 10 sacks. Licht passed on him in the offseason. Better see some edge sacks, NOW!

  224. Addb Says:

    NFL is making itself unwatchable with bad refs and sports betting

  225. TheVerv7 Says:

    The only thing worse than the Bucs defense are these sorry ass refs. They need to be able to make it so teams can challenge some of this terrible calls

  226. Mike Johnson Says:

    Josh Sweat. Hate to mention this but..we had a shot at him during free agency. But Licht said NO.

  227. sunny Says:

    that’s complete bs. how are the refs this bad? i usually think it’s loser mentality to blame the refs but c’mon.

  228. SBucs13 Says:

    The offensive line is definitely not ready. The refs aren’t helping. The guy slips down and it’s called holding. Sick.

  229. Alvin Scissors Harper Says:

    That drive looked good, until it didn’t.

  230. David Says:

    That holding call is exactly why they should review every play constantly throughout the game. No reason they can’t do that and call down to the field to have a look at something or overturn something. It can be done with today’s technology and keep the game flowing.
    Get the call right. That should be the only objective. None of this BS where you have to throw a challenge flag and lose a timeout if it’s not correct. And no calls should be off limits because you don’t want to hurt a referees feelings.

  231. NaplesBucsFan Says:

    They need to allow 2 call challenges per game as part of the challenge flags…it is atrocious how these calls are SOOOOOO BAD this year

  232. Chris Says:

    When you’re having a hard time with the Cardinals you know you suck

  233. Colonel Angus Says:

    F@cking refs

  234. unbelievable Says:

    Shocking

    I’ll give the offense a pass that time though since that horrendous BS flag took away our huge play.

  235. Jorge Says:

    SO DAM DIFFICULT TO MOVE THE DAM BALL…PENALTIES, BAD PASSES, BAD PLAYS…

  236. JA Says:

    The Wirfs holding call would make any neutral observer think the NFL is fixed.
    I don’t believe it is, but how can a ref throw a flag on a play like that?
    It changes the damn game!
    Brutal bad call.

  237. firethecannons Says:

    we are going to lose if things dont change, o-line is not even good maybe just run the ball as we are not yet behind

  238. SteveK Says:

    Licht needs to prove the edge rush is talented enough to get home. If we can’t dial it up today, I have my doubts.

  239. Orlando Kevin Says:

    Really bad referee call that killed a promising drive

  240. HopetheBucswin Says:

    Lots of empty seats baking in the sun. Here go the terrible NFL officiating. They really ruin/rig this game. #terriblerefs they really don’t want the Bucs to win, this league sucks.

  241. rrsrq Says:

    Dam @Tim, it’s just a game

  242. ATLBuc Says:

    I doubt if any of the refs that have officiated in any of our games will be graded high enough to get playoff games. But they don’t care because they’re probably being well compensated by the casinos

  243. Angelo Says:

    Probably the worst offensive holding penalty call of the year so far

  244. adam from ny Says:

    i just saw the refs literally shut down a drive……wtf

  245. Mike Johnson Says:

    If we don’t get pressure on Brissett, he’s gonna have a field day on us.

  246. dbbuc711 Says:

    But can Josh Sweat cover??? That’s what Todd looks for.

  247. EA Says:

    This game has the feel of being another game like the one against the bills, winning the turnover battle and still losing big.

  248. buc4evr Says:

    Refs. point shaving. lol.

  249. Bucs 95 Says:

    Why was that not a free play

  250. Buccaneer Bonzai Says:

    Mike Johnson Says:
    November 30th, 2025 at 1:30 pm
    “Josh Sweat. Hate to mention this but..we had a shot at him during free agency. But Licht said NO.”

    Or…Josh Sweat said no.

  251. BigZ Says:

    Classic Bucs

  252. Jugheadfla1 Says:

    Why does YaYa always look lost?

  253. heyjude Says:

    Horrible refs. Don’t blame Mayfield for getting upset. Good guy, Baker apologized. But still a bad call.

  254. Jorge Says:

    1st place team..Really.? we are making everyone doubt us and
    have 0 confidence in this team…on both sides.
    What happened??

  255. Francisco Says:

    This team is so bad. Lucky the division stinks.

  256. Gofortheface30 Says:

    Dbbuc71- lol what, you don’t like your edge rushers covering running backs in the flat? “Cmon man.”

  257. Dr. Bucenstein Says:

    Bad holding call by the refs on Wirfs. Unacceptable

  258. MegaFailure Says:

    logan hall with a pressure

  259. Alvin Scissors Harper Says:

    The longer you let the Cardinals hang around, the more confident they become. Cardinals have nothing to play for.

  260. D-Mac Says:

    Stallworth, yes they did indirectly. It would have been a first down without that phantom holding call, which would mean they wouldn’t be in a known passing situation at 3rd and 18. Stick to volleyball and WNBA. Jesus people sure are dumb

  261. SBucs13 Says:

    The beauty of watching g the Bucs under Todd is how unprepared they seem to be game after game. They’ve taken the personality of their clueless head coach. Each player has their own excuses to use.

  262. Warren Brooks Lynch Says:

    We just saw this offense struggle to move the ball 20 yards, where the hell is the dedication to the run on 1st & 2nd?

    Bucky just had a run for like 7 yards nobody touched him the first 6. Also, that’s 0 points of a turnover

  263. Buccaneer Bonzai Says:

    You all suck as fans, lol

  264. Chris Says:

    Brisket just throw toward Zion and do runs outside and you will win this game all the NFL knows it that why we get our butts beat

  265. Curse of Gruden Says:

    “dbbuc711 Says:
    November 30th, 2025 at 1:32 pm
    But can Josh Sweat cover???”

    Lol!

  266. buc4evr Says:

    bucs95. should have been. ball was snapped

  267. SteveK Says:

    Let’s get a sack from the edge! Come on Bucs!

  268. Badbucs Says:

    Holy cow a 3 and out.

  269. Obvious One Says:

    I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY THE ZEBRAS ARE ALLOWED TO CALL BS WITHOUT PENALTY TO THEMSELVES! 🙁

    The Zebras reminds me of the government. Pick your poison bit they function just like the government. There is CLEARLY MAFIA INVOLVEMENT! WHO WILL STOP THIS? YOU CAN’T EVEN VOTE THE D.O.U.C.H.E. BAGS OUT! Something has to change!

  270. ATLBuc Says:

    A rare 3 and out!!

  271. rrsrq Says:

    A 3 and out, where do they do that out

  272. Jmarkbuc Says:

    Anybody else see Tykee Smith stand there and watch and wait as the QB was scrambling? John Lynch would punch him in the mouth.

  273. BucfaninMi Says:

    This is simply not a good team. Injuries or coaching, probably both. Something needs to change

  274. NaplesBucsFan Says:

    I love how they don’t want disparage the BS ref call that cost the drive for the Bucs!
    Such a double standard

  275. SteveK Says:

    Boo, bad third down rush. Get home edge, you all stink at sacks.

  276. buc4evr Says:

    Refs are cheating today.

  277. Bucsbelife Says:

    Good stop d. Hope that turnover gets some momentum going for that side of the ball. Get it together offense.

  278. BPBucsfan Says:

    @MikeJohnson, the Bucs don’t value an edge rush. They’ve proven that time and time again. Mr. I have my draft picks promised us Braswell would “shock the world “. Still waiting.

  279. SBucs13 Says:

    Maybe there’s no scoring today. Two bad teams.

  280. TheBucsAnthem Says:

    Lord,

    Thus Bucs team sucks so bad right now

  281. heyjude Says:

    buc4evr – Agreed. That was blatant.

  282. Angelo Says:

    So I can’t be the only one who notices that we don’t even attempt to block a punt we strictly rush and quickly turn around. Pathetic, special teams…

  283. TheBucsAnthem Says:

    This Bucs team is beyond bad

  284. Dan the Bucs Fan Says:

    Reddick for MVP! We look 1000 times better with him on the field. He doesn’t make any plays but seems like we are lights year better with him

  285. Bucsbelife Says:

    Carolina has two picks on Stafford in the first qtr. just pick sided him. Need a win today bad.

  286. SBucs13 Says:

    Nothing worse than bad boring professional football.

  287. SteveK Says:

    I am offended by our dog 💩 edge rush. Get home, now! Get a sack, make an impact, at least be league average. I want Licht to fix this yesterday. If we suck next season at the same position, I’m going to call it out all day, every game. It needs to change.

  288. TheBucsAnthem Says:

    Let’s see another crappy go off this Bucs team

  289. LFG Bucs Says:

    Run up the gut for 3 yards???

  290. ElioT Says:

    I may take a nap here soon.

  291. Angelo Says:

    I told so many people early on this year. We had a deep playoff run team and a shot at the Super Bowl. Where did this delusion come from…?

  292. Bonan Says:

    I can’t get over that holding call man.

  293. rrsrq Says:

    What happened to Kam Johnson, he actually looked decent returning the ball earlier this year, he probably got coached and it messed him up

  294. Jor Jor Binks Says:

    Are we allergic to wearing red on pewter or white on pewter anymore?

    I get the argument for not wearing those uniforms at the beginning of season due to heat, albeit we wore them all the time under Gruden and Dungy

    Sick of constant white on white or red on white these days under Bowles

  295. Todd Says:

    As much as our edge rush sucks, I see the wisdom in Licht hoarding picks for next year’s draft…because next year’s draft picks will help us secure the NFC South, this year.

    Or something.

  296. SteveK Says:

    If Licht thinks spending another 2nd round pick on an edge rusher is going to work, I’d rather se him trade the pick for a bonafide player. Go Bucs!

  297. D-Mac Says:

    Don’t look now but the Panthers just took a 14-7 lead on the Rams. Yikes

  298. Crickett Baker Says:

    Panthers are beating the rams

  299. SteveK Says:

    Good to see Bucky back

  300. TheBucsAnthem Says:

    This play calling is so bad

    …….that a HS Def coach can defeat this offense

  301. TheBucsAnthem Says:

    There is absolutely no rhythm on the offense

  302. TS_Bucs Says:

    It doesn’t matter if the bucs win today. Todd Bowles has to go. His defense is crap. He isn’t a mad scientist, he is a idiot. Only Todd thinks covering a wide receiver with a dlineman and putting a corner back against an inside guard, who is waiting for him and has help, is a good idea.

    John griz should also be fired. Dan freeny has some testicular challenges. You don’t run block by running to a spot and stopping your feet. That’s all he does is get to a spot and stop his feet. He is worse than terrible he can’t even match the stopping power of a bolted down turn style that is unlocked and you can walk right through.

    This is Greg Schiano levels of incompetence covered up by Jason and his team building.

  303. Buccaneer Bonzai Says:

    Instead of bashing the Bucs, why don’t you all bash the opposing team? A team’s fans are not supposed to talk smack against their own team.

    The Troll Generation.

  304. ElioT Says:

    They tried to gas-light us with the Bowels mid-season slump as a “rollercoaster” lol

  305. SteveK Says:

    Go get a Tuddy here, Baker!

  306. SBucs13 Says:

    Anyone think a Better c than that end will score today?

  307. TheBucsAnthem Says:

    Josh Grizzard is THE WORST offensive coordinator in the league

  308. Buccaneer Bonzai Says:

    Crickett Baker Says “Panthers are beating the rams”

    No. They are not beating them. They are currently one score ahead. That will change.

  309. adam from ny Says:

    carolina is not f’in around

  310. Daniel Z Says:

    A rare Payne Durham sighting.
    And it goes for a 10-yard gain.

  311. Warren Brooks Lynch Says:

    Payne Durham sighting, that’s like his 9th target smh

  312. Ricardo Says:

    Wow, pick 6 for carolina.

  313. BuccoDav Says:

    Godwin!

  314. Badbucs Says:

    Rams trying to let Panthers win.

  315. Faspro Says:

    Godwin!

  316. NaplesBucsFan Says:

    CG14 looks great!!!
    LFG

  317. heyjude Says:

    Excellent throw and catch, Baker and Godwin!

  318. SteveK Says:

    The biggest atrocity on this roster is the GM/HC thinking our edge rush is “league average”. Until we have a bonafide edge rush, we will be lucky to make playoffs- and will get our butts sent home in one game. We must have an edge rush, so glaring.

  319. Buccaneer Bonzai Says:

    Wow. Godwin is actually producing. Way to go, Chris!

  320. LFG Bucs Says:

    Can a tight end not step up and get open ?

  321. buc4evr Says:

    now it’s cg14. omg

  322. SteveK Says:

    Let’s get 6, come on Bucs!!

  323. buc4evr Says:

    that sucks

  324. Warren Brooks Lynch Says:

    Redzone offense is cheeks!

  325. rrsrq Says:

    Now we got the dropsies

  326. cmurda Says:

    Wow.LOL

  327. SteveK Says:

    Gotta catch that, Chris. Damn.

  328. BuccoDav Says:

    WTH!?

  329. buc4evr Says:

    terrible

  330. BigZ Says:

    22 mil per year.

  331. Faspro Says:

    Man, bad drop

  332. Buccaneer Bonzai Says:

    I so miss Evans. I hope he keeps playing next year.

  333. Alvin Scissors Harper Says:

    Jesus, really Godwin?

  334. Steven #55 Says:

    Have to catch that

  335. Boltsfan17 Says:

    LOL. Glad Godwin got another huge contract.

  336. SteveK Says:

    Enough with the drops, as Coach monken said, “you choose to suck”.

  337. NaplesBucsFan Says:

    Catch with the damn hands not cradling that sh!t…damn CG, you’re usually a hands guy

  338. adam from ny Says:

    struggle bus continues………….godwin

  339. Mr_Barf Says:

    Ebuka & Godwin need to play Pattycakes on the sideline

  340. buc4evr Says:

    Godwin. ugh. wake up

  341. D-Mac Says:

    Baker seems to be the only one who’s come to play today for the Bucs

  342. Jmarkbuc Says:

    Wow, just Wow.

  343. JBBUCS_06 Says:

    While I don’t mind the Chase fantasy pts, CG14 HAS GOT TO CATCH THAT TD FROZEN ROPE BY BAKE!!!!! GEEEEZZ!!!!

  344. Warren Brooks Lynch Says:

    All types of points left on the field, defense gets you a turnover, nothing

    Defense forces a 3 & out, 3 effin’ points smh

  345. Outrigger Says:

    Baker looks good today. 2 big drops and a blown call by the refs and it could be 21-0

  346. Ricardo Says:

    Wow. Godwin. Rust?

  347. buc4evr Says:

    Baker doesn’t have any help at WR.

  348. unbelievable Says:

    Brutal

  349. TheBucsAnthem Says:

    This ain’t a damn team…… just a bunch of individuals playing out there

    How many drops will this team have today?

    How many penalties?

    How many missed defensive assignments?

    There is something wrong in the lockeroom for sure

  350. Daniel Z Says:

    Second straight-up drop by our WRs. We cannot afford to do that and let the Cardinals hang around.

  351. Chad Says:

    Baker actually looks decent today when he’s had time to throw, drops are a little concerning right now though

  352. Alvin Scissors Harper Says:

    3-0 in the middle of the 2nd quarter at home against a sorry Arizona team. No bueno.

  353. Buccaneer Bonzai Says:

    Chris Godwin was expected to be rusty, so the fact that he is producing at all is a big plus.

  354. Chris Says:

    Panthers will win the division unfortunately

  355. adam from ny Says:

    who was that guy on the sidelines impersonating evans…looking all stoic and cool lol

  356. passabuc Says:

    This game is not Baker vs Arzona its Baker vs his own receivers

  357. Buccaneer Bonzai Says:

    Baker is being given time to throw when it counts. OL is pulling themselves together.

  358. Crickett Baker Says:

    Panthers have had two interceptions so far.

  359. DmanTX Says:

    At least we’re finally moving the ball. The drops are due to rust I’m not expecting to see too many more from Chris today. Go Bucs!

  360. adam from ny Says:

    godwin looks real good…

    but his hands look real bad

    lol

  361. Badbucs Says:

    Beating ourselves today. 2 bad drops. Poor Baker. Can’t win like this.

  362. Mike Says:

    This team sucks!

  363. Gipper Says:

    Mayfield stinks. He knows better to throw a perfect pass. Can’t wait for the usual chorus to tell us what a bad pass that was.

  364. buc4evr Says:

    and Carolina is beating the Rams. ugh

  365. Jmarkbuc Says:

    Dennis is too small and light to tackle anybody

  366. Chad Says:

    You can’t say rusty when he’s made two really good catches and then keep saying he’s rusty when he drops a perfectly thrown touchdown ball

  367. Warren Brooks Lynch Says:

    Shoulda throw the back shoulder to Durham

    But noooooooooo, he’s freakin 6’6” we’re using the guy as a skinny, 6th offensive tackle

  368. Buccaneer Bonzai Says:

    Crickett Baker Says “Panthers have had two interceptions so far.”

    I don’t really care about the Panthers. So no thanks for the updates.

  369. Jeff Says:

    Here come an AZ TD drive.

  370. Dr. Bucenstein Says:

    Cmon Chris shake off the rust

  371. adam from ny Says:

    egg man and godwin with big drops today

  372. MegaFailure Says:

    YAYA SACK

  373. Warren Brooks Lynch Says:

    @Chad

    You can, mid-season form Godwin catches passes like that in his sleep. We’ve seen him do it a lot over the years

  374. adam from ny Says:

    scrubby sack

  375. NJBucsfan23 Says:

    Boring game

  376. BigZ Says:

    Hope Hall gotta good look at Jacoby scrambling

  377. BigZ Says:

    It is boring

  378. heyjude Says:

    Yay Winfield.

    Looked like grounding.

  379. buc4evr Says:

    yaya has come to play

  380. BigZ Says:

    50 showed up today

  381. Buccaneer Bonzai Says:

    Oh, look at that. Panthers are no longer winning. See? It doesn’t matter what they do. Pay attention to the Bucs instead.

  382. Badbucs Says:

    Coverage sack?

  383. Texas Bucs Fan Says:

    Not sure what what the term Rusty means or drppsy means at 22 mil a year?

  384. Jugheadfla1 Says:

    Anyone interested in actually watching an entertaining game, flip over to the Panthers game

  385. BuccoDav Says:

    That looks like a defense!

  386. adam from ny Says:

    ok vita said time 2 eat

  387. SteveK Says:

    We be jack sh!t on the d-line without vita, thankful for him.

  388. Crickett Baker Says:

    Well, Bonzai, I can’t watch OR listen to this game so..

  389. Jmarkbuc Says:

    If our 2002 defense was one of the fastest in history, this one is one of the slowest. Everything seems to take forever.

  390. heyjude Says:

    Yaya, Wirfs, and the rest looking good.

  391. NaplesBucsFan Says:

    Time for Bucky to rip off a big one…him and Tucker in the game at the same time

  392. LFG Bucs Says:

    Every Cardinal receiver was open against our soft zone when they showed the last sack again.

  393. Chad Says:

    Where has this defense been the last few weeks

  394. Buccaneer Bonzai Says:

    Texas Bucs Fan Says
    “Not sure what what the term Rusty means…”

    First game back. Gotta re-adjust to the flow of a real game.

  395. SteveK Says:

    DB and DT sacks are great, where the hell is the OLB/Edge sacks? Come on Bucs, overcome the blatant deficiency on this roster construct.

  396. Dan the Bucs Fan Says:

    We are back!!!! So nice to have some weapons on the field! Guys who can make plays it will only get better as these guys get healthier

  397. Stallworth Says:

    “Chad Says:
    November 30th, 2025 at 1:52 pm
    Where has this defense been the last few weeks”

    They haven’t been playing a 3-8 team the last 3 weeks.

  398. Buccaneer Bonzai Says:

    Crickett Baker Says:
    “Well, Bonzai, I can’t watch OR listen to this game so..”

    Ahhh…I get it. That sucks. I Heart won’t let you?

  399. buc4evr Says:

    wake up CG14 and EE.

  400. Alvin Scissors Harper Says:

    Rusty? Bonzai, the guy is a wide receiver! He doesn’t lose his hands while he’s injured.

  401. Bakerfan Says:

    Exactly what I said the last two weeks. They are those that will make excuses that players are rusty and give them time. By then the season will be over or they will be injured again

  402. SteveK Says:

    Catch the ball, and get a touchdown Bucs!

  403. Alvin Scissors Harper Says:

    Two straight 3 and outs for the defense. But, it is the Cardinals.

  404. Mhystc Says:

    Replace Otton with Payne.. he’s 6’6. Especially in the red zone.

  405. Badbucs Says:

    Let’s go now. No more mistakes. Baker is trying to win. How about the rest of you guys try to help.

  406. Buccaneer Bonzai Says:

    Alvin Scissors Harper Says:
    “Rusty? Bonzai, the guy is a wide receiver! He doesn’t lose his hands while he’s injured.”

    Maybe not lose them, but they can still get clumsy without gameplay. He’ll get it together.

    I’m just glad his injury doesn’t seem to be affecting him now.

  407. Crickett Baker Says:

    I don’t know about IHeart. If you know a free link I would be forever grateful..

  408. heyjude Says:

    Love Baker. Laughing about his slide.

  409. BigZ Says:

    Tristian getting beat again

  410. D-Mac Says:

    The point we are making about the Panthers is the fact thwy are playing the Rams waaaay better than we did last week. That thought alone should be disconcerting

  411. Buccaneer Bonzai Says:

    Crickett Baker Says:
    November 30th, 2025 at 1:55 pm

    I don’t know about IHeart. If you know a free link I would be forever grateful..”

    Try clicking my name, if this works.

  412. HC Grover Says:

    Lucky Bake can play

  413. Alvin Scissors Harper Says:

    Mayfield looks better running and throwing than I expected today.

  414. Jmarkbuc Says:

    Would sure like to see Tucker

  415. Buccaneer Bonzai Says:

    Bah…it put me in mod mode.

    Go to iHeart. Com and look up 98 rock tampa

  416. SteveK Says:

    Let’s go boys, get a touchdown.

  417. Jugheadfla1 Says:

    Just curious, what has Tucker done to get relegated to 3rd string?

  418. Mhystc Says:

    Tristan has to be hurt. He’s been getting beat week after week.

  419. Old Sombrero Says:

    Reddick makes a huge difference in this a defense. They’re winning line of scrimmage because of him. He’s getting doubled while Vea is doubled. Because he can drop into coverage they don’t know to account for him which leads to disguised blitzes. That’s an effective vintage Bowles.

  420. BigZ Says:

    Terrible call

  421. Ringer Says:

    How bad is Feeney?? Omg. I could protect better.

  422. Alvin Scissors Harper Says:

    GD it!!!

  423. cmurda Says:

    Im done with the NFL. Zero respect for the fixed game

  424. Jugheadfla1 Says:

    Go for it!

  425. Buccaneer Bonzai Says:

    Freaking flags

  426. D-Mac Says:

    The refs doing everything they can to erase our big plays

  427. SteveK Says:

    Officials calling everything g against us. Woof.

  428. NaplesBucsFan Says:

    SUCH F’NG BS ON THESE CALLS!!!!!!!!!

  429. SteveK Says:

    Go for it! Come on Todd.

  430. TheBucsAnthem Says:

    Here we go again

    Another crappy Josh Grizzard loser offensive plays …. 💩

  431. Alvin Scissors Harper Says:

    Go for it please!

  432. MegaFailure Says:

    REFEREES SUCK REFEREES SUCK REFEREES SUCK

  433. Buc in VA Says:

    Refs and injuries are just taking all the fun out of this sport

  434. buc4evr Says:

    Refs are cheating.

  435. Boltsfan17 Says:

    That propagandist Perrera will come on and make some lame excuse for the quality officiating.

  436. TheBucsAnthem Says:

    Crap offense

  437. Panthers suck! Says:

    these Refs SUCK!!!!

  438. Chad Says:

    These refs are ridiculous

  439. LFG Bucs Says:

    What a garbage call. This is blatantly bad.

  440. David Says:

    Holy crap. Another horrendous call possibly taking seven off the board?

    I will keep screaming it… Get rid of the stupid challenge flags, enable live booth reviews throughout the game of every single play in order to get every call correct.

    It can be done seamlessly

  441. Bucco2 Says:

    Getting absolutely graped by these refs

  442. rrsrq Says:

    What we gotta do, their players ran into each other

  443. buc4evr Says:

    need fbi investigation fast.

  444. Badbucs Says:

    Refs are relentlessly terrible. Really making this a clown show.

  445. TheBucsAnthem Says:

    Josh Grizzard is a total failure

  446. Crickett Baker Says:

    Nope. Arkansas is out of area—TY for trying.

  447. unbelievable Says:

    Wow these refs are effing us hard today unreal

  448. Colonel Angus Says:

    Refs make it hard to watch

  449. buc4evr Says:

    refs suck

  450. heyjude Says:

    Refs are fixing it for the Cardinals. 🤢

  451. Alvin Scissors Harper Says:

    I hope we’re not gonna kick a FG coming out of the 2 minute warning to go up 6-0 and keep it a 1 score game.

  452. NaplesBucsFan Says:

    That was contact moving away front he defender within 5 yards of the LOS and had nothing to do with the play but the ref calls OPI?!?!?!?!?!?!?!!!!!!

  453. unbelievable Says:

    These refs are really screwing us hard today. It’s unreal

  454. Inwoodjeremy Says:

    Kick or go? I like the kick

  455. Mike Johnson Says:

    Show us you got a pair, Todd. GO FOR IT.

  456. Bucfan1988 Says:

    Like I’ve been saying ALL FREAKEN YEARRRRRRRRR

    The officiating in the Bucs games is an absolutely Fukin JOKE!!!!

    I’m sick of seeing this utter crapshow of zebras that are actually getting paid to make these ridiculous calls…

  457. Dan the Bucs Fan Says:

    Take the field goal everything is going our way no need to give them any momentum go into half up 6-0.

  458. Bucco2 Says:

    NFL = WWE at this point

  459. Chad Says:

    Thebucsanthem, offense actually looks fairly decent, you telling me refs aren’t helping the cardinals defense?

  460. sunny Says:

    looks like baker came to play.

    and as for the panthers game and them playing better against the rams.. stafford looks to be having a bad game. it happens. the game’s a long way from over. not to mention, the bucs also played like trash last week.

  461. Curse of Gruden Says:

    Hard to beat the opposing team and the refs.

  462. jcscycles Says:

    Not a penalty. Shameful!

  463. unbelievable Says:

    Yeah that’s literally not OPI in any way shape or form.

    These refs should be fined for how bad they are.

  464. Bucfan1988 Says:

    Definitely go for it!! No kick here..

  465. Alvin Scissors Harper Says:

    Has Tucker even been in this game?

  466. DBS Says:

    I can’t wait for this. If they go for it and miss the experts B!tch. If they take a FG. The expert B!tch.

  467. NaplesBucsFan Says:

    Nah, you notice how they haven’t even mentioned the horrible OPI phantom call…can’t be defended

  468. Bakerfan Says:

    This is a team that gets no respect so officials have no problem screwing them. Wirfs and Tez’s penalties are examples that if it looks fishy they are going to call it against the Bucs

  469. buc4evr Says:

    go to Sterling when it has to get caught

  470. HopetheBucswin Says:

    Woooow. This is sooooo infuriating. Sooo rigged. How do they get away with this? Literally taking points off the board.

  471. BigZ Says:

    Shep can catch

  472. Inwoodjeremy Says:

    Glad to be wrong, but gotta punch it in now.

  473. Badbucs Says:

    Throw to guys who won’t drop it Baker

  474. SteveK Says:

    Hand it to Bucky and Rachaad. Get a tuddy.

  475. BucfaninMi Says:

    I’m for whatever decision is made. Fact is they shouldn’t be in this situation

  476. NaplesBucsFan Says:

    Bucky has fresh legs, feed his ass!!!

  477. Alvin Scissors Harper Says:

    Nice call Grizz! Nice execution Bucs! Now, let’s make sure we get 7 here!

  478. adam from ny Says:

    i’m realizing the nfl doesn’t want the bucs to pull away from carolina before their 2 big match ups…for ratings

  479. Bucco2 Says:

    Bucky just has a different level than White

    “Thus Bucs team sucks so bad right now.”
    “This Bucs team is beyond bad.”
    “Let’s see another crappy go off this Bucs team. ”
    “This play calling is so bad…….that a HS Def coach can defeat this offense.”
    “There is absolutely no rhythm on the offense. “

  481. SteveK Says:

    Run Bucky behind Wirfs!

  482. adam from ny Says:

    bucky running hard

  483. Outrigger Says:

    Baker looks fantastic today. Should have 2 TDs and another 50 yards passing if not for the refs and dropped passes.

  484. Faspro Says:

    That was a hold

  485. SteveK Says:

    Bonzai,

    I’m offended by the lack of production of our edge rush and I think we won’t win a Super Bowl by not at least being league average at the position. I am bummed at Licht and Bowles for not doing more.

    Go Bucky!!!

  486. Curse of Gruden Says:

    The fix is in.

  487. Alvin Scissors Harper Says:

    Stupid, stupid penalty!!!

  488. heyjude Says:

    OMG, this is horrific. These refs are cheating.

  489. Chuckys Bucs Says:

    Who’s the Jack azz that keeps calling for Durham to get fade routes in the end zone? Maybe that’s why he doesn’t.

  490. Buccaneer Bonzai Says:

    SteveK, I get that…but I prefer as a fan to hope it gets better over the next 5 games.

    Refs rob us of a TD again.

  491. SBucs13 Says:

    The Bucs are a poorly coached team. Two touchdowns called back by penalties.

  492. BigZ Says:

    Weak holding call
    Bake is on fire today

  493. Alvin Scissors Harper Says:

    Nice run White!

  494. BuccoDav Says:

    Good catch and run, White!

  495. MegaFailure Says:

    WIRFSSSSSSSSSSS

  496. Faspro Says:

    Wirfs!!TD

  497. BigZ Says:

    Nice play

  498. BucWild410 Says:

    That was a hold and an unnecessary one too, but the one on Wirfs was criminal, not even close to being a hold.

  499. Badbucs Says:

    Some creativity. Way to go Grizz.

  500. Jmarkbuc Says:

    I mean you gotta love that

  501. BigZ Says:

    They fooled me

  502. MegaFailure Says:

    WOWOWOWOWOWOWO

  503. BuccoDav Says:

    Woohoo, Wirfs!

  504. Alvin Scissors Harper Says:

    Come on guys! That holding call on Durham was totally legit.

  505. Buccaneer Bonzai Says:

    OMG, hits the pilon and not a TD????

  506. Boltsfan17 Says:

    Send a message and cut Durham after the game. Never gonna happen though.

  507. BucWild410 Says:

    Judas Priest, that was nice.

  508. heyjude Says:

    I love it! Wirfs, so cool!

  509. SteveK Says:

    Big man touchdowns are awesome!

  510. buc4evr Says:

    did Wirfs check in as a receiver ? TE?

  511. Alvin Scissors Harper Says:

    That was FANTASTIC!!! Way to go big guy! Great call Grizz!

  512. TheVerv7 Says:

    Run out of flags ref???

  513. Curse of Gruden Says:

    This is going to be a challenging game. We have to score three times to get one to count.

  514. BigZ Says:

    More of TW in space please

  515. Jmarkbuc Says:

    Baker shoulder must be all right, lifting up
    Wirfs

  516. PSLBucfan Says:

    Great play call.

  517. NaplesBucsFan Says:

    Wow I didn’t realize Wirfs was eligible…hell of a play!!!
    LFG, get the bal back and score again before the half

  518. Buccaneer Bonzai Says:

    Wirfs??? LOL!!!!

  519. LFG Bucs Says:

    Did the announcers even mention that Wirfs checked in? Set him up as a TE all game!!

  520. Boltsfan17 Says:

    Wirfs has better hands than Godwin.

  521. adam from ny Says:

    okay…just what we needed…

    big wirfsy !!

  522. Badbucs Says:

    Don’t give it up now defense.

  523. Chad Says:

    What a great play call

  524. SteveK Says:

    Ok edge rush, get a damn sack and quit being less than average! Ready for it. Vita has a sack, Winfield has one. Let me see the edge win a battle to get one.

  525. Bucs 95 Says:

    I hate that refere he has a punch me face

  526. DailyRich Says:

    Just thrilled to see the Panthers giving the Rams all they can handle….

  527. Chuckys Bucs Says:

    Great to see gruden back. Thanks Trump!

  528. UKBuccaneer Says:

    That was a legit hold. Don’t be a homer and pretend it wasn’t

  529. David Says:

    That was awesome.

    But I am surprised the referees didn’t throw a flag for the formation or something

  530. Outrigger Says:

    At least Wirfs can hang on to the ball

  531. Dr. Bucenstein Says:

    Wow!!!! Bucs can do trick plays. Grizz is learning

  532. JBBUCS_06 Says:

    Grizz the Wizz tells all haters to STHU.

  533. Mr_Barf Says:

    Holy heck! Wirfs TD & he was the 3rd read…Grizzard making me smile

  534. Chuckys Bucs Says:

    Great to see gruden back. Thanks President!

    Since you won’t let me post his name

  535. Daniel Z Says:

    A big man TOUCHDOWN!

  536. Buccaneer Bonzai Says:

    Bucs 95 Says:
    November 30th, 2025 at 2:09 pm

    “I hate that refere he has a punch me face”

    Gotta love autocorrect.

  537. SB~LV Says:

    Damn !
    3 TDs in 3 minutes

  538. D-Mac Says:

    For the rest of this game, and possibly season, as the Bucs score a touchdown, we should always look for a flag because there is one more often than not. If the Bucs start to run away with the game, the refs will slack off on the penalties against the Bucs knowing that they cant keep the Cardinals in the game any longer.

  539. NaplesBucsFan Says:

    S U S13, you do realize that IF THE BS CALL DOESNT TAKE THE TD OFF THE BOARD THE HOKD DOESNT HAPPEN??????

  540. Josh Says:

    Like I said, I’m not sure if it’s gambling, pure entertainment value, or something else, but the refs are very suspicious in every single game—not just the Bucs games it’s been super strange this season…

  541. David Says:

    Steve k
    I get where you’re coming from but
    Yaya has a sack and may get credited for another half with Vita’s

  542. Buccaneer Bonzai Says:

    I would love to have Gruden as OC…but he would leave the moment another team offered an HC job.

  543. Colonel Angus Says:

    Grizzes first good call all season

  544. adam from ny Says:

    what the hell is going on with those freakin panthers !

  545. sunny Says:

    loved that play call. the holding call against durham was legit, dumb move on his part. the other penalty calls on that drive were ridiculous though. terrible officiating.

  546. buc4evr Says:

    intentional grounding.

  547. adam from ny Says:

    gruden could wind up coach of the giants next season

  548. NaplesBucsFan Says:

    Holy sh!t the refs didn’t screw the Bucs that time!!!!!

  549. MegaFailure Says:

    WOW THE REFS GOT IT RIGHT AFTER A DELAY

  550. Buccaneer Bonzai Says:

    I tried to defend the refs for the first few games. I still think most of those were legit penalties.

    But since then the refs have been truly horrible.

  551. SteveK Says:

    Good pass rush by Dennis, ILB, how bout the edge position? It drives me crazy how impotent they are.

  552. LFG Bucs Says:

    Good call stripes!

  553. heyjude Says:

    Can’t defend these refs. But glad they got it finally right. But they stink.

  554. rrsrq Says:

    Refs trying us

  555. Alvin Scissors Harper Says:

    How could they say it wasn’t grounding? At least they eventually got it right.

  556. MegaFailure Says:

    3RRRRRRDDDD DOWWWWNNNNNNN

  557. Buccaneer Bonzai Says:

    adam from ny Says
    “gruden could wind up coach of the giants next season”

    Think so? I could see him doing well there.

  558. Steven #55 Says:

    Refs making it too obvious not calling that – New York must have called in

  559. SteveK Says:

    Yaya, Redick, Nelly, etc. someone get a sack.

  560. jcscycles Says:

    Finally – a penalty on the Cards!

  561. Alvin Scissors Harper Says:

    Let’s get our third straight 3 and out!

  562. MegaFailure Says:

    CMON

  563. Buccaneer Bonzai Says:

    Falcons. Panthers. Saints. Refs.

    Our rivals.

  564. SteveK Says:

    Defensive backs are sold out by dog sh!t edge rush.

  565. Chuckys Bucs Says:

    3rd and Todd never fails

  566. TheVerv7 Says:

    Why the hell did Bowles call a timeout?!?

  567. Usfbucs Says:

    Doesn’t intentional grounding include a loss of downs plus penalty yards? If so it should have been 3 and 23 right?

  568. NaplesBucsFan Says:

    Garbage D letting them get in FG range

  569. MegaFailure Says:

    ICE EM TODD

  570. SteveK Says:

    Come on edge rush.

  571. BigZ Says:

    Too easy

  572. Scotty in Fat Antonio Says:

    Our defense is a clown show!!!!!

  573. Jugheadfla1 Says:

    2nd and 23 from their own 20 and they are going to get 3…..ridiculous

  574. NaplesBucsFan Says:

    UsfBucs…yes they lost 1st down instead of replaying 1st

  575. ElioT Says:

    Beautiful defense

  576. Buccaneer Bonzai Says:

    Time for a pick.

  577. SteveK Says:

    Stupid edge rush, can’t get home, exposes secondary, and it’s a shame Vita doesn’t have a legit edge next to him. Damn.

  578. LaBrente Says:

    I often wonder if everyone here is a real Bucs fan because some of these comments are really mind blowing

  579. Bakerfan Says:

    I can live with that. There was a good pass rush on all those plays

  580. Mr_Barf Says:

    Fire the time out coach…got greedy & AZ gets an free 3..dang we beat ourselves in inventive ways

  581. Rod Munch Says:

    Had them stopped, getting huge pressure, then on 3rd down goes back to the super soft zone while rushing 4 with the same results we always see. ALWAYS see. If he brings pressure, they get the stop, get the ball back with time to score again. Another stupid call by Bowles. Don’t use your time out if you’re just going to play soft, it ALWAYS ends in a big play for the opponent. ALWAYS.

  582. HC Grover Says:

    Good thing Bowles called that TO.

  583. SteveK Says:

    Come on edge rush. Wake up

  584. cmurda Says:

    3rd and Todd. Defense gives up too many yards there

  585. buc4evr Says:

    Bucs went with a four man rush. should have blitzed on that series.

  586. Coltol Says:

    Gift FG, Tampa TO gives them the time to do it, stupid

  587. NaplesBucsFan Says:

    That’s pretty damn impressive that Graham could lift Worfs a little higher after he jumped in to Graham…that’s a massive man to lift

  588. Jugheadfla1 Says:

    Bowels is nauseating…..3rd and 9 and he relies on a 4 man rush…..Forking idiot

    Great to see gruden back. Thanks President!

    Since you won’t let me post his name

    Pathetic how my attempt to post the PRESIDENTS name was blocked, but you allowed me to post without it. Clear and obvious

  590. TheBucsAnthem Says:

    PATHETIC DEFENSE!

  591. Rod Munch Says:

    The time out was the correct call.

    The issue was the call after the time out, to sit back in that soft zone and not bring pressure after you’ve been getting sacks and stopping drives. Just flat out stupid by Bowles to not bring pressure when it matters most. Just flat out stupid.

  592. Outrigger Says:

    Overall good half but left a lot of points on the board thanks to drops and bad calls by refs.

  593. NaplesBucsFan Says:

    Colton, you do realize all teams do that when the team has a 3rd down and a chance to get the ball back, right????
    The TO wasn’t the problem, the Swiss cheese D was the problem

  594. David Says:

    The issue was not the time out being called.
    I was actually glad they did that, shows some confidence in the defense and offense.
    The issue is this defense has a horrendous time getting off the field on third and long all season.

  595. Buccaneer Bonzai Says:

    Okay, I have work to do on a big project due in January. I’m signing out here and listening. Have fun, everyone!

  596. TheBucsAnthem Says:

    PATHETIC OFFENSE!

    …..when you gotta have your offensive lineman score a TD

    …..that’s when you know your offense is broke hard!!!

  597. TheVerv7 Says:

    Should be at least 14-0. Dropped passes and our HC using TO to literally give the Cards a free field goal. Dumb

  598. sunny Says:

    crazy how much of a difference it makes having godwin and bucky back on the field-even with the two drops.

  599. jcscycles Says:

    Offense looks better with Bucky back.

    Refs are terrible! Should be at least 14-3.

  600. TheBucsAnthem Says:

    FIRE JOSH GRIZZARD!!!!!

  601. LakelandSteve Says:

    Looks like the Refs got paid today… by the Cardinals

  602. firethecannons Says:

    hope we do not see any more of the usseless defense that just gave up 3 points

  603. cmurda Says:

    The same people that would have complained if Todd didnt call the timeout. Calling the TO is the right call. The D going soft and giving up a gaping chunk of yards on 2nd and 3rd down is the problem.

  604. NaplesBucsFan Says:

    Shut up about the TO morons, EVERY DAMN TRAM CALLS TO AT THAT POINT TO GET THE BALL BACK…3rd and 9 and the D can’t get a stop is the problem!!!
    NOT THE TO!!!!!

  605. Colonel Angus Says:

    Just win, stop the bleeding. Godwin is looking like he is on the road to being a threat again. Mike and JMac should be back in a few games hopefully. Gotta have this one anyway we can

  606. Josh Says:

    Be honest—anyone really think this Bucs team can beat any playoff team? Bucky’s gotta keep showing up, and Baker and the offense would basically have to light up the world—every pass perfect, no drops, zero penalties, and 40 points a game. Against a real team? Yeah… it feels impossible. But hey, stranger things have happened, right?

  607. Rod Munch Says:

    How do you as Todd Bowles, see that every single time this game you bring pressure, real pressure, those ‘exotic’ blitzes, you get huge pressure and stops — then when it matters most, you throw that out the window, only send 4, with the same results we ALWAYS see in that situation. Isn’t there a point in time where you start to see the results that come from calling that soft garbage, in particular in key situations? How does it happen over and over and over again? The Cards give up more sacks than anyone, and in a key situation, you play the softest defense you got. Just flat out stupid.

  608. chark Says:

    bowles does too many dumb things to make games loseable

  609. buc4evr Says:

    Bowles better go back to all out blitz packages and mix things up.

    no one wants to see political bs on here, so if his name is moderated then i for one am thankful.

  611. chark Says:

    No calling a timeout was stupid and I called 10-3 before because I knew he would do something stupid before half. He has done this many times. He sucks!

  612. Ringer2 Says:

    Reffing is is so suspect now. Why did ref change his mind? To me it was a legit receiver in the area. Something is really going on lately.

  613. NaplesBucsFan Says:

    Josh, this team has 5.5 games to round in to playoff shape…time will tell what we are when we get there. The only way in is to win the division, so a home game is on the docket barring a huge collapse

  614. HC Grover Says:

    Bucs need to win today to set up the end of the season

  615. NaplesBucsFan Says:

    I like that Baker said to the media that winning out and having a playoff mentality now…that’s exactly how the team Needs to play the rest of this year

  616. Stallworth Says:

    Glad to see Simeon Rice going into the Ring of Honor. Well deserved.

  617. HC Grover Says:

    Bake should have this w/o anymore Bowles Blunders….
