BY IRA KAUFMAN

Let’s hear it for the grunts.

Mike Evans, Baker Mayfield and Bucky Irving put on quite a show for the Buccaneers last season, but it didn’t happen in a vacuum. (more…)

Team guy.

Cool thing about Cade Otton. The Bucs’ starting tight end the past three years is reluctant to embrace any personal credit for the Bucs’ offensive success. (more…)

How hurt was SirVocea Dennis?

Does anyone still have the memory of the Bucs losing to the Cowboys at The Licht House on Monday night of Wild Card Weekend in 2023? (more…)

So it seems in the mind of one dude who traffics in the fantasy world, Bucs AC/DC-loving general manager Jason Licht is inching toward getting run out of Tampa by a Twitter mob if the Bucs don’t make a serious run at the Super Bowl soon. (more…)

Solving Chris Lindstrom.

Joe has been to too many NFL combines to count. Each year, Joe is on a quest to learn how many coaches or front office shot-callers think the PFF tribe’s mindless “grades” are worth a bucket of warm beer. (more…)

Joe had a nice chat with one in attendance about the current team. (more…)

Confident in Josh Grizzard.

“Hope you enjoy losing, Liam. We’re freakin’ loaded.”

The blessing of Emeka Egbuka has come from face of the franchise. (more…)

Bucs ILB SirVocea Dennis.

SirVocea Dennis has a friend in Calijah Kancey. (more…)

Feels responsible for rookies.

As Todd Bowles said earlier this week, he doesn’t like to “sugarcoat” things for rookies in underwear football. (more…)

Best of 2021 draft?

No one is perfect. And given what transpired in the early months of 2021, there isn’t one Bucs fan who wouldn’t take this deal: (more…)

Retired Bucs Pro Bowl DT Gerald McCoy.

Six-time Buccaneers Pro Bowl defensive tackle Gerald McCoy was a polarizing player during his Tampa Bay days.

But Joe thinks there’s at least one thing every Bucs fan can agree on when it comes to McCoy: (more…)

Steelers coach Mike Tomlin.

It’s official. The Bucs will have one joint practice with the Steelers on Thursday, Aug. 14, at what used to be called Heinz Field.
