Alarming Practice Report

September 24th, 2026

Uh, oh.

The only decent starting Bucs linebacker both inside and outside missed practice for the second straight day today, as the Bucs prepare for a game against the Vikings that very well could determine the January job status for so many people employed by Team Glazer.

This scares Joe.

Josiah Trotter, the star rookie inside linebacker on a tear, sat out practice the past two days with a sore shoulder.

Linebacker play in the first two weeks for the Bucs has been just about totally dreadful, with the exception of Trotter, who has shined.

Rookie edge rusher Rueben Bain (groin) has a grand total of one sack in two starts and also has not practiced the past two days. His backup, Anthony Nelson (shin), returned to practice today but was limited. Defensive tackle A’Shawn Robinson had a partial rest day, and he, too, was limited.

    15 more putrid Sundays and we can move on.

    I’m going to put $50 on the Vikings just as an F-U to the Glazers.

    Hope they like empty seats at the stadium because that is a Bowles specialty.

    Until they actually win a game everyone should boycott and stay home.

    The only thing they listen to is our wallets closing.

    Scared of what this thing is already a train wreak when you lose to the worst team in the league they are no longer the worst team in the league.

  3. Bosch Says:

    Bain does not have any sacks. I think you mean 1 tackle.

  4. JustVisiting Says:

    Looks like it’s gonna be a +really+ good week for the offense to show up big.

  5. GMC hater Says:

    No reason to care about anything else until Bowles is fired.

  6. BuccinBaker6, Says:

    Wait Bain has a Sack

  7. Mark Says:

    I assume you mean one tackle? I don’t remember Bain getting a sack.

  9. Andrew Says:

    Bain doesn’t have a sack Joe… For the year he actually only has 1 tackle.

  10. Baker Head Case Says:

    I don’t know why the glasiers or anyone else thought this team would be improved by bringing the toilet bowl back. This is just a continuation of last years melt down with the exception of head case baker and slow slob vitta not needing money or caring about performance. Stay home people! Make the owners pay for giving toilet another wasted year

  11. Nick Says:

    One sack? Did I miss something or should it be one tackle?

  12. Rocket10 Says:

    Bucs are favored, if they stay favored I’m betting on them If points drop or Vikings are favored then I’m betting on Vikings

    Rookie edge rusher Rueben Bain (groin) has a grand total of one sack in two starts and also has not practiced the past two days.

    I just checked Pro Football Reference. He has one tackle, not one sack.

  14. Muscle Hampster Says:

    The Bucs are “cooked” regardless. See ya next year! Congrats to the Carolina Panthers for winning the garbage NFC South!

  15. Lakeland Says:

    The Tom Brady effect is officially gone

    It’s back to the days of the YUCS
    Having a new HC every 2 seasons
    Looking forward to the draft in October

    Man people sure are freaking out with the Bucs one game out of first place. Maybe we should get out of the gates before we decide what we have.

  17. Davenport Says:

    STPETEMATT — come on, man!
    is it too much to ask that the rose colored glasses fans, look at reality and say “enough”?

    I’m convinced that the Glazers won’t do anything until the entire fan base refuses to buy into the hideous product they’re trying to sell.

    The standings don’t matter this early in the season. The freak out is about the overall poor play, which can’t be sustained if they have any hope of a winning season. Fact is, there’s no reason to believe this team will pull itself out of the funk it’s been in since last season. They’re cooked. If they prove me wrong, then I’m wrong, but right now, based on the trend from last year and through the first 2 games, I say cooked, burnt, toasted, done.

  19. Stpetematt Says:

    I’m concerned but it’s way too early to be freaking out. I don’t equate last season with this one. Half our defense was replaced. Lots of positive things could still start to happen. This team has plenty of talent to compete and were a play or two from winning both games. What they need to do is absolutely hammer a couple of teams so they don’t have to get lucky at the end. That would do wonders for team (and fan) confidence.

  20. Hodad Says:

    Good thing we practice in the heat of summer for that home field advantage. We very likely could go 0-3 during this home stretch. Packers play tonight so they’ll be well rested when they come to Tampa next. It’ll also look like a home game, for them! This team needs to win Sunday.

  21. NCbucfan Says:

    Muscle Hamster, don’t be so sure. Unfortunately the stupid Saints are looking at least decent. They have done something Bowles never can, beat the Ravens. It will be a miracle if we beat the Steelers in a few weeks.

  22. #1bucsfan Says:

    It’s not about how you start it’s about how you finish. To write off any team after 2 games is ridiculous. Looking at you JOE. after mid season and the standings in our division then you can start crying like most of you have. Lot of football left.

  23. NCbucfan Says:

    Stpetematt, sure dude! One big problem with your hope. We still have the same genius coach. Believe me, I want to win, but what about Bowles history gives you any hope we can pull out of this??

  24. Smoke Porterhouse Says:

    Conrad Bain might’ve had a sack in a preseason game.

  25. firethecannons Says:

    Joe says this,”This scares Joe.” wth for? really why in hell be scared? be glad that they get fired! these “coaches” are not performing and they are fully 100% responsible for this Bucs debacle. I would throw Licht and Glazer kids in their as well. They have all fouled up the Buccaneers so badly that for the rest of our lives the Buccaneers will be known as LOSERS!

  26. Ugotrobbed Says:

    They had everyone healthy for last weeks practice and still went out and lost to the worst team in the nfl…so what the h#++ does that matter! TB is still coaching!
    Oh, and that officially makes us the worst team in the nfl!
