“Mr. Glazer, let me show you the schedule again.”

So the signature voice of NFL Network is surely one that grabs attention in the expensive offices at One Buc Palace. (more…)

Saved by the schedule?

Simeon Rice’s Hall of Fame case remains on slow boil.

Since sacks became an official statistic in 1982, only 20 players have deposited quarterbacks on their rumps more often than No. 97, a terror off the right edge in Tampa Bay for six seasons.

Yet Rice’s name doesn’t trigger much enthusiasm among the 49 selectors who decide who will be fitted for gold jackets in Canton. It’s an enduring mystery because Rice has been eligible for induction since 2013. (more…)

Team Glazer is lurking.

Consider that through this ugly Bucs four-game losing streak the Todd Bowles defense has allowed 15 touchdown passes against 0 interceptions — all while opposing quarterbacks have completed 99 of 131 passes, a 75.6 completion rate. (more…)

Who knew something good could come out of something horrible? But it seems that’s what has happened with Bucs tight end Cade Otton — and he’s not happy about it. (more…)

There’s something about the Buccaneer defense that brings out the best in Kirk Cousins.

It doesn’t matter what uniform Cousins is wearing, he continues to wear out Tampa Bay.

Although he didn’t shout out “You like that?’ when he walked toward Atlanta’s locker room Sunday, that collective groan from Buc Nation made the question moot as Cousins shredded the Bucs for the second time in 24 days. It marked the second time this season that Cousins threw four TD passes against Tampa Bay’s reeling defense. (more…)

It’s almost ironic that on a day that saw Mr. Cleveland, Jameis Winston, put the Browns on his back for a huge interception-free win against the Ravens, Baker Mayfield channeled the ghost of Jameis and threw two more bad interceptions in a Bucs loss. (more…)

Can’t look down any longer.

Bucs legend Lavonte David always likes to talk about “mindset” and “mentality.” He must have been a psych major at Nebraska. (more…)

So the Bucs allowed three drives totaling 225 yards and 17 points on Monday night against the Ravens — in the second quarter. (more…)

“Look, Cade. I don’t care if you’re tired or worn out.”

One Bucs offseason goal was to cut the snaps of tight Cade Otton significantly.

It hasn’t happened. (more…)

It’s been a bunch of days since former Bucs linebacker Devin White negotiated his release from the Eagles. (more…)

Jamel Dean immediately popped off Falcons receiver Drake London after making this tackle.

So late in the fourth quarter last night when the Bucs defense tried to hold a three-point lead to keep the Falcons (who had used all their timeouts) out of field goal range, Tampa Bay was 1 second shy of completing the task. (more…)
