Bucco Bruce Arians did a lot of talking this week at the NFL Scouting Combine, and he was even on television sharing what a treasure chest of talent he sits on at One Buc Palace. (more…)

Draft strategy.

There is always a sect of fans who want the Bucs to trade down in the draft. There is always a sect. (more…)

Stats show one of NFL’s best.

From time to time Joe likes to bring you Next Gen numbers. These are sort of off-the-wall stats that are not grades or subjective gibberish but stats derived from new technology including camera angles at stadiums and computer sensors located on players’ equipment. (more…)

We were *this* close! So the Bolts came up just a game short of another month without a regulation loss. But the trends this week say the Bolts have dead legs and a little bit of an issue in the 5-on-5. Tom Lang breaks down a loss to the B’s, managing minutes down the stretch, talks even strength play, raises a red-flag about cockiness and answers a question about young Matthew Joseph. Brought to you as always by Bill Currie Ford. Go Bolts!

PRESENTED BY BILL CURRIE FORD

Talks working with a diva.

If one is to only take on face value what Bucs AC/DC-loving general manager Jason Licht and coach Bucco Bruce Arians had to say this week in Indianapolis, they want malcontent wide receiver DeSean Jackson back. (more…)

BY IRA KAUFMAN

From late February to late April, NFL head coaches and general managers have a 2-month license to lie.

They talk about free agency and the draft but give away very little.

They talk about the season that just concluded and the one dead ahead, but when you look back, many of those offseason remarks are proven comical. (more…)

Should heart trump production?

It seems one member of the Fourth Estate who covers the Bucs is shaking his head in disbelief over what he is reading coming out of Indianapolis the past few days. (more…)

Careful wording.

In the forum of public speaking, NFL types must be careful walking through the minefield as any mistake can be taken the wrong way by owners, coaches, players, agents and even fans. (more…)

Joe has noticed a trend from new head coach Bucco Bruce Arians. (more…)

No.

Bucs AC/DC-loving general manager Jason Licht has already stated on record he has had no talks with Steelers brass about potentially acquiring quitting wide receiver Antonio Brown. (more…)

Done with Bucs?

One reason why Bucs coach Bucco Bruce Arians is so adamant that America’s Quarterback, Pro Bowler Jameis Winston, is the man, his man, is that he doesn’t want Jameis looking over his shoulder and thinking he will get the hook. (more…)

Iowa State RB David Montgomery.

You know the Bucs need a running back. Joe knows the Bucs need a running back. (more…)

Off day.

One of the cool things about Twitter is it offers observations. The downside is, observations can be faulty. (more…)

Joe has a lot of confidence in new head coach Bucco Bruce Arians, but Joe is starting to wonder where Arians’ focus will be. (more…)

Joe’s friends at Bill Currie Ford mean business, just north of the stadium on Dale Mabry Highway and home of the nationwide lifetime warranty on new and used vehicles.

General manager Jason Licht

One great mystery of the 2018 season is why Caleb Benenoch was allowed to start 16 games at right guard when he was dreadful in that role.

Heck, Jason Licht’s own words confirmed that yesterday. (more…)

Touching moment with America.

Yes, we know  Bucco Bruce Arians came to the Bucs in large part because he viewed the team as having a quarterback in America’s Quarterback, Pro Bowler Jameis Winston. (more…)

New position.

Hey, have you heard the latest about Noah Spence? You know, the defensive end who the Bucs placed in the witness protection program last year? (more…)
