The Bucs offense exploded against Cleveland tonight, but the tight end position was eerily quiet and unused.

Tampa Bay repeatedly had early red-zone opportunities that Austin Seferian-Jenkins sat out. (more…)

Yesterday, Joe typed a story explaining that Mike Evans was the Buccaneers’ big winner through training camp.

Tonight, Evans was dominant against the Browns and has Joe salivating for more. (more…)

Amid all the giddy, beer-soaked excitement over how the Bucs looked in the first half tonight, and how America’s Quarterback, Pro Bowler Jameis Winston, shredded the Browns defense, Joe offers cautionary, sobering words of caution. (more…)

It seemed as if it was one of the most anticipated place kicks in recent Bucs history. (more…)

Cover your hearts and stand!

When America’s Quarterback, Pro Bowler Jameis Winston, completed a 34-yard pass to Mike Evans late in the first half for a touchdown to put the Bucs up 27-3 (fast starts!), it nearly brought Joe to tears. (more…)

Welcome to Preseason Game 3. Sorry you have to watch Browns quarterback Josh McCown play football.

Joe is pumped up for this next step toward being finished with nearly meaningless preseason games.  And Joe and the Custodian of Canton, eye-RAH! Kaufman, are at the Stadium on Dale Mabry Highway eager to deliver A+ postgame coverage.

Bang it here for your thoughts on the game. What player is good; what player should be cut tomorrow; what player should get used to the bench.

Play nice. Personal fouls at not tolerated.

UPDATE: 7:49 p.m. America’s Quarterback, Jameis Winston, better watch his back tonight. (more…)
