Joe really has enjoyed watching the Raise The Flags documentary on Amazon Prime. It’s a new 10-part series on the 50-year history of the Bucs, minus a lot of impactful happenings. But Joe is not complaining. It’s a very informative and entertaining watch. [read more]

Joe touched upon this briefly in “GameDay Tampa Bay,” but Joe will dwell on it a bit more here. [read more]
Pressures don’t mean squat.
Aside from YaYa Diaby, the Bucs are so awful at an edge rush, they reached back to five years ago to a glorious year to bank on a former star getting a sack or two in the next three games to save the team from choking away a playoff berth. [read more]
Big day today?
