Target of GM’s barbs responds.

Last week Bucs AC/DC-loving general manager Jason Licht may have had one of the funniest quips in the history of “Hard Knocks.” (more…)

Targeted his desire.

It just about shocked the Bucs world last week when, after a busy offseason restocking his safeties toolbox,AC/DC-loving general manager Jason Licht picked up former Pro Bowl safety T.J. Ward who was abandoned by John Elway and the Broncos. (more…)

PRESENTED BY

Broncos players are unhappy.

As Joe detailed earlier, credible reports claim three-time Pro Bowl safety T.J. Ward, who was just cut by Denver, is your newest Buccaneer. (more…)

Bernard Reedy is in

Here is the official list!

Of course, look for changes soon as the Bucs work the waiver wire. (more…)

BY IRA KAUFMAN

That’s what he’s here for.

So far, Buc fans have noticed that Chris “Swaggy” Baker is an extrovert who doesn’t mind showing off his playful side. He’s been a natural for those Hard Knocks cameras, flashing a wide smile and some nifty dance moves.

Baker’s first tango with his new teammates comes Sept. 10 in Miami, where Jay Ajayi is eager to strut his stuff against a rush defense that ranked 22nd last fall. (more…)

Eye-opening claim

Man, Bucs icon Ronde Barber served up all kinds of insight last night from movers and shakers at One Buc Palace. (more…)

Yes, Kwon Alexander is injured. The severity has not been made public by the Bucs, though Jenna Laine of ESPN says it’s a hamstring.

When Kwon got hurt in practice over the weekend, multimedia guru Rock Riley (@realrockriley) was filming for JoeBucsFan.com and caught the injury on tape. It’s all below.

You’ll see Kwon running over the middle covering a crossing route and then go down without contact. He later appears to talk to trainers about his left hammy and is then consoled by Jason Licht. Scary times right now for Bucs fans with opening day in 19 short days.

“Frustrated”

More often than not, winning head coach Dirk Koetter has walked off the practice field recently and said his team didn’t practice well at all. (more…)

Diva chatter emerges

First, let Joe say that DeSean Jackson, by all accounts and observations, has been a model Buccaneers teammate since arriving in March.

Yeah, he missed a big handful of voluntary spring practices, but otherwise Jackson has looked like a brilliant fit in all aspects. (more…)

“Jason, Ira’s got a point.”

The sage of Tampa Bay sports, eye-RAH! Kaufman, Tampa Bay’s only Pro Football Hall of Fame voter has spoken.

Starting as a New York Giants beat writer in 1979, Ira has seen it all. And his football wisdom tells him the Buccaneers should make a trade immediately if they can. (more…)

Enjoy the moment.

There’s a lot of hand-wringing going on by national observers and even a few Buc fans about some of the things that went wrong Thursday night in Jacksonville.

Nick Folk had an extra-point attempt blocked and missed a field goal that caused Dirk Koetter to drop his head. The red-zone offense struggled at times. Jameis Winston turned in a bonehead play.

I get all that. (more…)

“”Losing had become too easy.”

Winning head coach Dirk Koetter was heard talking about the Buccaneers’ culture yesterday. (more…)

Unfair dart thrown

Another sharp javelin has been hurled in the direction of America’s Quarterback, Jameis Winston, by mercurial local newspaper columnist Tom Jones. (more…)

Backroom intrigue.

The rumor floated by prickly Pete Prisco yesterday really got Joe’s mind working overtime. (more…)
