Antoine Winfield (right) walks off the practice field today with undrafted rookie safety Shilo Sanders.
So the Bucs have a couple of players whose dads were true NFL superstars: Antoine Winfield, Jr. and Shilo Sanders. (more…)
Confident.
What has been a disconnect between the Bucs and fans — not just Bucs fans but NFL fans — is now a full-blown major disconnect. (more…)
Local media was only permitted to watch one of the Bucs’ four practices last week. So today Joe asked head coach Todd Bowles to share a few positive standouts from the three sessions closed to prying eyes like Joe’s. (more…)
Rookie cornerback Benjamin Morrison (left) coming off the practice field today with fellow rookie Tez Johnson.
Joe is impressed. Others collecting checks from Team Glazer are, too. (more…)
It’s Joe’s nearly world famous practice notes.
*Few clouds but a sweet breeze for the 10:35 a.m. start.
*Trey Palmer, Jalen McMillan, Emeka Egbuka, Tez Johnson and Kameron Johnson catching punts. One drop by Johnson. McMillan isn’t very smooth but no drops. (more…)
Pressure.

What will he do in 2026?
Lost in the excitement for the coming season is one potentially ugly fact: (more…)
Expect more from Todd Bowles.
Sometimes, Joe thinks Todd Bowles has become a punching bag and the guy still has the sword of Cooper Kupp hanging over his head. (more…)
Winning the offseason.
A month ago, Bucs fans were winding down from the draft. And after the second day of the draft, Bucs AC/DC-loving general manager Jason Licht was catching flowers from folks in the fourth estate.
Including one employed by the league. (more…)
Joe always pays attention when one NFL analyst talks Bucs because he’s a former scout who worked in a similar world traveled by Buccaneers Ring of Honor general manager Jason Licht. (more…)
“Just soak it all in, Kyle.”
Might Kyle Trask become the next Tampa Bay offensive coordinator?
The fifth-year veteran is coach material, says Todd Bowles. (more…)
Joe finds this report somewhat funny considering who calls plays for the Steelers and the presence of Scotty Miller on the Pittsburgh roster. (more…)
Taking charge.
So as Joe prepares to march out to One Buc Palace tomorrow morning for underwear football practice, one thing jumped out Joe last week watching the first voluntary spring tune-up. (more…)
Run defense debate.
No, Joe is not into quarterback pressures, the football equivalent of playing horseshoes and hand grenades. (more…)
Playoff loss eats at him.
Joe actually likes this for the 2025 season. But Joe certainly does not like it for how the 2024 season ended. (more…)
“Baker, this is idiotic!”
Joe is in disbelief after being triggered by something so stupid, but here we are. (more…)
Baker Mayfield is no Tom Brady or Jameis Winston.
That’s the word from one of his Tampa Bay teammates. (more…)
Future Ring of Honor general manager Jason Licht signs a football for an adoring fan.
Occasionally there is intriguing Bucs chatter during NFL Live on ESPN TV. (more…)
He’s figured it out.
A former high priest of the PFF tribe seems to have split opinions on Bucs defensive tackle Calijah Kancey. (more…)
