Bucs running back Rachaad White throws down a dunk.

This isn’t a 350-pound man jumping out of waist-deep water in a swimming pool, but Joe was still impressed. (more…)

Preparing for contract year.

Not very often do you see Hall of Famers, or future Hall of Famers, excel as coaches. (more…)

Better than Saquon Barkley?

Joe bets that if just about any Bucs fan were asked who would they take straight up, Bucky Irving or Saquon Barkley as your go-to back, they may pause a moment to think about it. (more…)

First down maker.

The mark of a good offense is one that doesn’t wait for third or fourth downs to get another series of downs. Now Joe doesn’t have the data, but in the recent past, the Bucs have done a very good job of converting on first and second downs. (more…)

High expectations.

If Joe has to go by stats, Joe’s leaning with either Aaron Schatz and Mike Tanier, refugees from Football Outsiders (RIP), or Joe’s jumping into the stats pool of Sports Information Systems. (more…)

Yes, Todd Bowles has doubters after three consecutive division titles.

They’re not everywhere, but there are enough that Team Glazer might end up commissioning a focus group to figure out why and craft a fix. (more…)

“Jason loves us, Graham.”

Buccaneers Ring of Honor general manager Jason Licht played in the trenches during his college days and has proven himself in the NFL as an offensive line whisperer. (more…)

Tight end Cade Otton.

After Week 14 last season, Cade Otton ranked seventh in total catches (57), seventh in yards (576) and fourth in completions of 20 yards more among NFL tight ends. (more…)

Solid first-year starting.

Maybe Joe is weird, but when Joe sees a player do something very good, to Joe, that’s a foundation on which to build.

Others believe it’s worthy of throwing a guy overboard. (more…)

Not good.

There is a difference of opinion at JoeBucsFan.com World Headquarters. (more…)

Preparation.

Two years ago, then-Bucs offensive coordinator Dave Canales never guided the Bucs offense to a touchdown on an opening drive. (more…)

Soon to be popular?

Bucs fans are stoked for this season. There are high expectations. (more…)

Ranking.

Joe heard a lot of football folks before last season, including Chucky and Brian Baldinger, rave about Bucs 2024 first-round pick Graham Barton and knight him as a future star. (more…)

So two guys employed by the NFL sat around talked about how special Bucky Irving is but were just fine ranking him as a middle-of-the-pack starting running back.

What? (more…)

Deion Jones has Devin White’s number.

Don’t you dare throw shade at the Bucs’ inside linebackers corps. (more…)

Dodges sacks at high rate.

Baker Mayfield didn’t face a ton of pressure last year, though he was sacked 40 times (10th-most in the NFL). But when Mayfield did face pressure, he did a really solid if not strong job of avoiding disaster. (more…)

Regression doesn’t mean bad.

Not everyone is on the Baker Mayfield bandwagon. (more…)
