Myles Garrett is going to make a lot of left tackles look bad this season. Donovan Smith ranks as Exhibit A.
The first overall pick in the 2017 draft was very impressive in Cleveland’s preseason victory, pressuring Jameis Winston repeatedly off the right edge.
And while the Browns have much to look forward to enjoying Garrett’s ascension, Buc fans are left wondering which Smith will show up in the season opener at Miami. (more…)

The NFL preseason is essentially behind us and the Buccaneers are one of the league’s big winners.
Yeah, you heard me.
Forget about the 1-2 record heading into Thursday night’s preseason finale. You think the Glazers are pressuring Dirk Koetter to play regulars against the Redskins so Tampa Bay can even its exhibition mark? (more…)

There’s another growing fan movement going on in Tampa besides the Stick Carriers.
A new wave of Buc supporters was in evidence Friday at the East Stadium Club when Darcie Glazer Kassewitz presided over the third edition of Women of RED.
More than 2,000 fans packed Raymond James Stadium for the event, with former WFLA-TV anchor Gayle Sierens serving as emcee. Ali Marpet, Clinton McDonald and rookie O.J. Howard were the special guests, answering questions and giving fans a peek behind the pewter helmet. (more…)
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.

Stick Carriers to the rescue.
Hey, somebody has to give Hard Knocks some intrigue after two rather bland episodes.
This show obviously has a lot of appeal in the Bay area because Buc fans are hungry for any morsel about their football team. But when you get past Spring Hill and Lakewood Ranch, is anybody watching this supposed “inside” look at a franchise on the rise? (more…)

Derrick Brooks wrestled with mixed feelings when Mike Smith went job hunting last January.
Brooks knows an outstanding coach when he sees one, and he admired Smith from afar until 2016, when he saw the Bucs make dramatic strides on defense under their new coordinator. (more…)

Clinton McDonald will line up in the trenches tonight and prepare for a slugfest.
Even in the preseason, defensive linemen and their counterparts engage in a continual series of collisions that leaves both sides bruised and battered. (more…)

Dirk Koetter must feel like heading off to Vegas right about now.
The way Koetter’s fortunes are running, he’d walk away from the tables hoarding enough chips to fill a tackling dummy. With one month left before the season opener in Miami, the best adjective to describe Bucs training camp is a word any NFL head coach would love to apply this time of the year.

The facts are in and the conclusion is uncommonly clear.
Malcolm Glazer was a badass.
Don’t be fooled by the red beard, the specs and a belt buckle worn unusually high. The late owner of the Buccaneers would have been very proud of this confident football team and Dirk Koetter’s aggressive approach. (more…)

Bob LaMonte won’t be in the audience during Jon Gruden’s Ring of Honor news conference this afternoon, but he sure was there when it counted.
Right at center stage.
There were a lot of contributors and factors in 2002, as Gruden was pried out of Oakland a year early. Al Davis received the price he wanted, Jim McVay was a valuable go-between and the Glazers weren’t about to return from the West Coast without a head coach to replace Tony Dungy. (more…)
