There’s no asterisk on this one.
This wasn’t the Browns or the 49ers coming to town, bad teams ready to roll over on the road. This time, it was a Panthers team saddled with a 3-game losing streak, fighting for their Wild Card lives. (more…)

In a crazy way, Sunday’s decisive victory against the 49ers was incredibly frustrating for Buc fans.
It showcased what might have been in 2018 if this team had shown more discipline about keeping the football and retrieving the football. (more…)

When this Buc season of despair mercifully concludes, some misguided souls will argue that a slew of injuries on defense derailed a promising start.
Some will point to the absence of Mitch Unrein, Vernon Hargreaves, Chris Conte and Kwon Alexander as key factors in Tampa Bay’s demoralizing collapse. And they would be wrong.
Dead wrong. (more…)

Dirk Koetter said last week’s decision was close. This one shouldn’t be.
If Koetter has the audacity to announce Ryan Fitzpatrick as his starter Sunday against the 49ers, it can mean only one thing – the man wants to get fired. (more…)

Here we are again on Buccaneer Boulevard, talking about finishing out a lost season with pride.
We’re all too familiar with this scenario as Buc fans head toward Thanksgiving with one eye on the cranberry sauce and another on the next NFL draft.
Brent Grimes talks to Ira
It’s painful to look at the standings and even more painful to remember that this team was once the talk of the league.

Let’s not kid ourselves — it’s over.
The breathtaking promise of the opening two weeks has turned into harsh reality. This will be an 11th consecutive Buc season without a playoff berth, followed by a regime change.
This was the game that could have prompted a turnaround, facing a battered Redskin team at home. This was the game to stop the bleeding and trigger a winning streak against bottom feeders like the Giants and 49ers. (more…)
Buccaneers icon Derrick Brooks has really been bringing his A-game to TAMPA TWO with Ira Kaufman, the esteemed JoeBucsFan.com columnist, presented by Caldeco Air Conditioning and Heating. Not a lot of sugarcoating from Brooks. Whoa! As always, TAMPA TWO is a joint project of The Identity Tampa Bay and JoeBucsFan.com.
