Advice for Jameis

Father Dungy was on national radio this morning talking about the great disappointment he is certain that is being felt inside the walls of One Buc Palace. (more…)

It’s one thing for a starting QB to get benched for a journeyman quarterback when he’s having a garbage game.

It’s quite another thing for the journeyman to step in and light up the scoreboard on the road in just over one quarter of action and tie the score with seconds to play. (more…)

“What’s the market, Jason? You always want to know the market.”

Today, Jameis Winston hit rock bottom of his professional football career. (more…)

Warren Sapp weighs in.

Joe is not sure if it is just schtick or just two dudes being real but two former Bucs are not on the Vita Vea bandwagon. (more…)

Ira talked defense after the game with Mark Duffner, Lavonte David, Noah Spence and M.J. Stewart

BY IRA KAUFMAN

When Tampa Bay players return to practice Wednesday, one particular ditty should be blaring from those loudspeakers at One Buc Place.

The year was 1968 and the group was Archie Bell & the Drells. The song that went to No. 1 on the charts that spring was “Tighten Up.” Check it out on YouTube. (more…)

Saved the season?

Jenna Laine of ESPN has the money information. (more…)

“Monk, let Jameis sleep in today.”

In a game in which they were winning or tied for the majority of play against a Browns team that was terrible against the run before they arrived in Tampa, your beloved Buccaneers dropped back to pass 66 times and handed off just 22 times. (more…)
