Bucs “Home” Game In Miami?
December 26th, 2025
“Pete, I hope you’re right!”
A team needing a win to make the playoffs against a team needing a loss to help tank is the difference in Sunday’s game.
That’s the word from NFL insider prickly Pete Prisco of CBS. He thinks the Bucs should have Sunday’s game in the bag because of the consequences.
In fact, Prisco believes so many Bucs fans will travel across Alligator Alley for the game, that Bucs fans will take over Hard Rock Stadium.
The Bucs have to win the next two to win the division. Miami is done and the past two weeks has played like it. This is a road game for Tampa Bay, but will it feel like it? Look for Tampa Bay to win it behind a better showing from Baker Mayfield and the offense.
Man, Joe doesn’t know about Bucs fans taking over Hard Rock Stadium. Bucs fans have a hard time taking over The Licht House. And given the malaise Bucs fans are under currently due to the state of the team, when 56 percent of Bucs fans hope the Bucs don’t make the playoffs, Joe has a hard time seeing Hard Rock Stadium turn red.
If that did happen, it would be cool.
For those eager, Joe sees tickets for under $100 on the secondary market.

The joint will be near empty!

Almost double the ticket price for parking at Hard Rock Stadium

Not going to happen. More people will make the trip from Miami. The stadium will not be close to full.

The NFL is in the entertainment business and needs a Cinderella story. With the Kansas City Swifts and Detroit eliminated, the Bucs fit perfectly, while Carolina could emerge as another. Grizz, who might be just two weeks away from never being an NFL OC again, gets Mayfield dialed in this week against the Dolphins. Oddsmakers at HRB have the Bucs scoring 25–28 points. If they face the Rams in the playoffs, Todd will have to break the honor system for the script to play out.

We will be there! Got free tickets from a Fins season ticket fan who refuses to go! While I don’t think this coaching staff should have jobs next season, it’s impossible to not root for my(OUR) team to win! Been a fan since 1982, and even when it hurt the worst, I was still was a fan and always want the Bucs to win!
GO BUCS!

I can see a lot of fans going. A lot of people off from work for the holidays. Go Bucs!

If the Bucs win 2games they are Div champs. If the Bucs win 3more games they will be NFC Champs. If the Bucs win the 6th game the Bucs will hoist the Lombardy Trophy.
Seems doable doesn’t it? Think Disney. “If you wish upon a star. Makes no difference who you are. Every thing your heart desires will come to you.”
Are you listening Bake? Mike? Chris? Tristian? Vita?
Just 6 games. Let the ball rip and demonstrate “violence of action on defense.”
That is the last thing anybody in the “Fake News” expects and most other people.

Never give up!

I’m with you, westernpennafan. It’s a playoff, not a best record competition. So long as the Bucs are still in it, only the next game matters!

Fire Todd

When a “normal” team faces a NFL team dumping their QB and trying to lose for higher draft spot, the spread would be 10-14 points. What’s this one, 5 1/2? This shows you what outsiders think of Buc chances. Still going to watch and try not to throw something thru the TV.
It’s a Buc life. Sigh!

I doubt that the people who actually own season tickets for either team will be the ones walking into the stadium.
Reselling on after market, giving to friends who have never been to an NFL game, that is who will be in the stands!

Our Fans are bad most want to give back the 2002 SB because it was Dungys team and the 2020 Mahomes was missing 2 O-linemen so it should not count .
December 26th, 2025 at 11:17 am
I have no faith in my Bucs team. I got the Dolphins winning. And nobody, not even you, will be surprised. This Buc team Sucks.

I’ll never underestimate Todd Bowles ability to screw up a wet dream.
December 26th, 2025 at 11:32 am
YES PLEASE FIRE TODD
December 26th, 2025 at 11:37 am
Just a few more weeks till fate approaches..
December 26th, 2025 at 11:50 am
Bucs as a 6 pt favorite on the road is a joke.
December 26th, 2025 at 11:52 am
Mike Johnson is correct.
December 26th, 2025 at 12:10 pm
Not one person I’ve talked to has any plans to attend one game next year if Bowels is retained…. Like let every seat be empty at Ray Jay as long as the owners embrace mediocrity for buddy system!

Todd will do his best to embarrass Bucs fans. Two uninspired teams looking to rid themselves of the yoke of making millions playing football. Prepare yourselves for more Todd excuses for two more weeks.

I guess you can dream all you like….

Joe, I think Licht house should be restored to it’s original name den of depression if the Panthers beat us at home. What say you?
December 26th, 2025 at 1:23 pm
What are the odds the game ends up a TIE!?!?!?!?!??
December 26th, 2025 at 1:24 pm
This is the HOT POTATO game. lol
December 26th, 2025 at 1:52 pm
Fish tank for draft.
December 26th, 2025 at 1:53 pm
LMAO.
Bucs fans can’t even take over the crowd in their home stadium, why on Earth would anyone think they could do so at an away game? Especially after this season’s epic and pathetic collapse?
That hasn’t happened at an away game since they played in San Diego back in 2016.
