This is blowing Joe’s mind and we may be witnesssing something truly historic. (more…)

No longer do Bucs fans have to wince while watching their right guard play.

The Benenoch-Sweezy-Smith era is far in the rear view mirror. (more…)

It’s that time of year again, when Tampa Bay’s big PGA Tour event returns. And there’s no better way to watch it than in the Hooters Owl’s Nest.

Joe’s weekly Monday column looking back at this weekend’s game. (more…)

It wasn’t the same old Bucs yesterday, and that felt damn good. (more…)

This is not fake news.

With the first quarter of the 2019 campaign in the books, Ronald Jones is on pace for 200 carries for 936 yards and four touchdowns this season. (more…)

The chant began at Buffalo Wild Wings in Oldsmar seconds after Ndamukong Suh’s 37-yard fumble return sealed Tampa Bay’s improbable victory.

“Lock him up, lock him up,” Buc fans shouted in unison. They weren’t talking about Suh, Joe Biden or Donald Trump.

They were talking ’bout Shaq Barrett, who had just concluded another monster game to cap off a monster September. Yes, it was Barrett who caused Jared Goff’s fumble for Suh’s scoop and score. Buc fans are already lobbying the front office to extend Barrett’s contract to prevent him from hitting free agency next March.

There were plenty of other gladiators at the cavernous Coliseum, which looked surprisingly empty considering the home team was 3-0 and the Rams represented the NFC in the Super Bowl last season.

The Bucs were too busy scoring a franchise-record 55 points to check out the action in the stands. They arrived in the City of Angels as 10-point underdogs and promptly beat the devil out of a Los Angeles team that clearly wasn’t ready to compete when the game began.

Here’s how the Bucs evened their record at 2-2 heading into the Big Easy. They didn’t make it easy on Sunday, but they made plays in crunch time and erased the sting of last week’s setback: (more…)

Contained.

Quick, anyone see Aaron Donald? Maybe someone should call his family. (more…)

Deflects credit.

Last week Joe brought word that Los Angeles sports television personality and former Rams quarterback Vince Ferragamo claimed America’s Quarterback, Pro Bowler Jameis Winston, was playing the best ball of his career. (more…)

Helps set record.

If you thought watching today’s thrilling, exhausting 55-40 Bucs win over the Rams that it seemed like a lot of passes were completed, you weren’t wrong. (more…)

Matt Gay went from goat to stud in one week. (more…)

Playah.

By the label slapped on him by the team last week, Bucs receiver Chris Godwin was questionable for today’s game. (more…)

Shaq speaks.

A guy who is on pace to be the best free agent signing in the NFL since the Packers signed Reggie White, Bucs pass rusher Shaq Barrett, wasn’t all smiles and giggles after one of the wildest Bucs wins since beating the Saints in New Orleans last year. (more…)

Inspiration.

Can we just put Shaq Barrett in the Pro Bowl already?

He’s earned it after just four games. (more…)

Playcaller power

Joe is so damn tickled by what the Bucs offense accomplished on the road against a stout Rams defense and their legendary defensive coordinator. (more…)

Monster

Bucco Bruce Arians wasted no time telling fans after the game that Chris Godwin’s massive performance today was delivered by an injured player. (more…)

Todd Gurley led a Rams rushing attack that combined for 11 carries for 28 yards today.

For the third freakin’ week in a row, a powerful running game was completely neutered by the Bucs defense — yet the defense still allowed four touchdowns and two field goals. (more…)

Wow! The Bucs manned up in a massive, massive way after a brutal home loss.

Our beloved Buccaneers shocked the NFL world, racking up 55 points on the defending and undefeated NFC champions. And Bucco Bruce Arians showed Bucs fans everywhere that he’s captaining a very different ship.

It’s not every day when your team wins after allowing 517 yards passing on the freakin’ road. (more…)
