After last night’s choke job against the miserable Falcons, Baker Mayfield fell on his sword. (more…)

Baker Mayfield

The Bucs like to brag loud and proud of their “I Am That Man” slogan for selecting players. (more…)

Bucs co-owner Joel Glazer met with Jason Pierre-Paul on the field prior to last night’s game.

Bucs-fan rage is at an all-time high.

Heck, Joe is absorbing venemous darts for not calling for Todd Bowles to be fired this morning. (more…)

Safety Antoine Winfield, Jr., with no receiver behind him, is about 10 yards off the receiver as Kirk Cousins releases the football on 4th-and-14 during the Falcons’ game-winning drivfe.

So Todd Bowles would not name who made the “big blunder that was inexcusable” on 4th-stand-14 during the Falcons’ game-winning drive last night. (more…)

Bucs coach Todd Bowles reacts to a play Thursday night.

The Bucs looked like they had wrapped up a win. The Bucs led 28-26 with just over a minute to play. (more…)

Tight end Devin Culp celebrates his first NFL touchdown Thursday.

Joe thinks the Bucs are on the verge of upheaval at One Buc Palace in some form or another. That’s what happens when you may have the worst defense in the league and your team is cratering so bad in the past seven weeks you’re on the cusp of missing the playoffs. So start chugging that mug of java, you will need it. (more…)

Some players tuned out?

Joe has suspected, maybe going back to last year, that the Bucs have a locker room issue. (more…)

Baker Mayfield

Baker Mayfield doesn’t want to hear any smack run about the Bucs defense. (more…)

Look, Joe fully understands that every team, on occasion, will have a defensive lineman drop into coverage. This is nothing new. (more…)

Chase McLaughlin had a different kind of night.

No mas!

Todd Bowles decided the miserable Bucs kickoff coverage unit would no longer pollute the team. (more…)

Made huge difference.

The Bucs offense was not perfect. But the offense didn’t choke the game away and let a quarterback who otherwise looked like he had one foot in a retirement home look like Dan Marino in his prime. (more…)

“You like that?”

The nicest way Joe can put this is that someone in authority with the Bucs doesn’t learn from past mistakes. (more…)

Tonight Todd Bowles channeled one of his mentors, Bruce Arians.

Whoa!! (more…)

So the Bucs have painted themselves into the mother of all corners. The Bucs, barring something totally unforeseen, will need to beat Carolina twice to make the playoffs. (more…)

A week ago the Bucs were struggling but hadn’t lost to a bad football team all year. (more…)

So the Bucs allowed two touchdowns and a field goal to the miserable Falcons in the fourth quarter tonight.

Keep in mind Atlanta was playing a backup quarterback and was without their No. 1 receiver. (more…)

Losing to a crap team at home in back-to-back weeks.

That’s our beloved Buccaneers. (more…)

Comment all game long with fellow Buccaneers fans and the loud haters. It’s a huge division game!

Must-win territory for the Bucs.

Be decent. And be respectful. It’s not difficult unless you’re barking about zebras or the Bucs defense.

Go Bucs!!!
