Weather Was An Issue For Bucky Irving
December 9th, 2025
So Sunday in the shocking loss to the slimy Saints in Tampa, Bucs running back Bucky Irving got off to a poor start.
At one point he had a dozen carries for less than 20 yards.
However, fellow running backs Sean Tucker and Rachaad White had much more success, and consistent success. But the Bucs went back to Irving and he broke a run late in the game.
So what was up with Bucky early? It seems, per Todd Bowles, Irving’s style wasn’t meshing the rainy weather sloppy field.
“I think he had to adjust early on with the weather. He was trying to jump cut and do all the side to side stuff and you know, and that type of weather you gotta get going downhill,” Bowles told the Buccaneers Radio Network.
“And I think he adjusted well in the second half and started getting downhill.”
Why it took so many carries for Bucky to adjust is anyone’s guess. The Bucs certainly knew the weather forecast before kickoff.

So many mysteries with this team. Nothing makes sense. Why oh why do we collectively play and coach like crap. Starts at the top. Fire over confident mistake prone clueless Bowles!

Is the field going to be ready for Thursday? Looked pretty chewed up Sunday.

I’m Fn yelling & the tv Put Tucker in the game!!!
My Bucky is slasher/ cutter. See this is why fans question the HC.
And further more, they had to know the forecast did they practice with wet balls.
Just stupid and frustrating.

everyone knew it was gonna rain on Sunday…even Todd has a weather widget on his phone. if you did practice in simulated rain during the week. That is a fire able offense. From Dino-Arians to Jason to Todd. Fire them all.
Glazers…you are wasting money on these losers.

I’m sure the weather was an issue for Bucky and his style of running. Heck, the weather was an issue for both teams and unfortunately our Buccaneers came out of the game with less points !!
We sure need a productive BI 7 this Thursday night. We have one heck of a stable of running backs that should be able to wear any team out if our offensive line is executing their blocking schemes correctly.
Go Bucs !! Beat the Falcons!!

Pathetic coaching. White and Tucker were killing it. Can’t watch another game with the Clownzo regressing the franchise.

This looks like a team that likes to take it’s time off. Just looks like they don’t do much until the games start and then everyone gets injuried. Zero chemistry and so sloppy they just look so confused by themselves by the opposing team they even have me confused.

I was also yelling at the tv to run with tucker. If they would have just played downhill they would have won easily.
