San Francisco Does The Bucs A Solid

November 25th, 2025

Helped Bucs out.

The 49ers put the hammer down on the Stinking Panthers last night.

Why is that important? Because with a win, the Stinking Panthers would have taken over first place in the NFC South, pushing the Bucs into second place.

The way that the Bucs have played since the bye, specifically the defense, this team is trending down. Teams with bad defenses generally crumble late in the season and Joe fears that is what is happening now.

If the Bucs are going to make the playoffs, they are going to have to win the division. And the Bucs need all the help they can muster the way they’ve been playing after the bye.

With Baker Mayfield now hurt and his immediate status uncertain, the Bucs very easily collapse.

What once looked like a sure thing (playoffs) is anything but a lock now.

    panthers schedule = tough road ahead

    Bucs were lucky that Bryce Young had a horrible night. Brock Purdy was not much better with 3 picks but the Niners controlled the clock. Canales went for 2 after the Panthers scored their only TD, he must have been channeling Bowles on that one. Rams 10 point favorites at Carolina next week.

    Purdy tried his best to give it to them but fortunately they didn’t want it.

    A Panthers loss and news that Baker’s shoulder is (just) a low-grade sprain–I’ll take it. Redeems at least a little bit what was a bad showing Sunday night. Could’ve been a lot worse. I just hope this year’s mid-year slump is over soon, like now.

    It’s just prolonging the inevitable

  6. Rod Munch Says:

    At least we have the week 6 ESPN Power Poll title and week 6 MVP, that’s got to count for something to the playoff team selection committee.

  7. Rod Munch Says:

    You guys are all wrong about the Rams game. The Bucs had nearly double the rushing yards of the Rams and easily won the time of possession. Outside of the score, it was basically a perfect game.

  8. Christos Says:

    So after all the preseason hype, after all the contenders talk during the first part of the season where are we now.
    In the standard midseason yearly tradition of waiting other teams in the division lose so we go to the playoffs.
    Day of the marmot.
    Nothing changes. We just have to make a couple more tackles and a couple more plays. That is the only problem.

  9. MadMax Says:

    We already collapsed….its over.

    Where Im at so far…..will probably change a little according to our 1st rd placement.

    1. Christen Miller
    2. Whit Weeks
    3. Sawyer Robertson

  10. MadMax Says:

    Of course I’d love Sonny Styles or Cj Allen, but they’re probably gone by the time we pick.

  11. MadMax Says:

    But, if we pick at 19 and hes there

    LB Sonny Styles
    DT A’mauri Washington
    TE Michael Trigg
    QB Sawyer Robertson (we need a capable young bu)
    RB Leveon Moss

  12. LVMYBUCS Says:

    Bucs organization has low expectations from Bowles.

    Boy I gotta say I’ve read it All non stop since Sunday night. Now repeated Thousands of times over and over. It’s a shame it’s come to this. BUT IT HAS..

    It’s not as “refreshing” as you may think to have spelled it out all Off season and the Off season before, and to have been “Spot On”, on All the points that have been laid out concerning our Desperate Need for a New Answer at head coach/DC by the HUNDREDS of different fans. Seems many were reading what I and a few others were so desperately pointing out. WARNING the Entirety of Bucs Nation to DEMAND BETTER Before it was Too Late!

    Now I’d preferred that Todd kept trending upward. We STILL need a competent head coach after all and for a short time it Really “Looked” like Todd FINALLY turned the corner. I know it’s Easy to forget, but IT WAS the Defense that saved our bacon for a few games and Not the offense. Did everybody forget that? It seems so.

    But it Really leads to the point of why we Desperately Need a change of the ENTIRE coaching staff. Because IT ALL FELL APART FAST! AND I DON’T MEAN IN SOME SMALL WAY!

    I’ll tell you all EXACTLY WHEN it happened. And if you look back and ponder it for a minute, you’ll realize that, that’s Exactly WHEN the Implosion began….
    It WAS DIRECTLY AFTER THE TRADE DEADLINE…. The defense WAS Balling Out just before the deadline and ABSOLUTELY CALAPSED afterwards. Tell me I’m wrong if your crazy enough to CONTINUE TO DENY THE TRUTH. That IS when it happened…
    Don’t care if some short sited few don’t understand the relevancy of ‘”TEAM SPIRIT”. The fact that the GM DID NOT SUPPORT THE EFFORT NOR VERY OBVIOUSLY DID NOT BELIEVE IN “THIS YEARS TEAM” ENOUGH TO GIVE THEM “HOPE” when THEY (the players) “NEEDED IT” the Most!

    It Must Have been DEVASTATING to the them. Look, they quit after that. It was ALL THE SUDDEN that they had no heart. They quit trying. If you demonstrate that you don’t believe in them, and “their cause” then they aren’t going to believe in “your cause”. And neither would you. When they realized that the management wasn’t going for a Super Bowl, they STOPPED PLAYING FOR ONE!

  14. Obvious One Says:

    Also, this year Won’t Be like years past when Bowles was “bailed out” by the Offense..

    I’m sorry to say, neither Bowles or us fans will taste Satisfaction this time. We will be playing scared as fans. We Already Knew the luck would eventually run out with the Defensive play NO BETTER and perhaps Worse than years prior.

    The BIGGEST Reason is Starring us In The Face! Our luck has run out with this last shot in the dark OC! He’s (Grizzard) Not talented enough to save Bowles job for him. He’s NOT EVEN SORT OF QUALIFIED TO RUN OURS OR ANY PRO TEAMS OFFENSIVE GAME PLANNING! NO WAY THIS BAILS BOWLES OUT OR US THIS TIME as Bowles has so “Homer Simpson” like relied on for YEARS now. THAT LUCK has Run Out…… Gizzard has demonstrated that he never was qualified. But I suppose if someone got a little ahead of their ski’s in an Over Confident High on their finding talent abilities and past luck (Bowles), I’d of taken the job if I’m Grizzard For Sure! And SO WOULD YOU!

    I’m Actually nervous and scared that going forward, if the Glazers don’t get this right… It’s BACK to another lost decade.
