Dirk Koetter believes Team Glazer has a set a brass ones. (more…)

America’s Quarterback, Jameis Winston, told quite a tale this evening that took fans inside the mind of Dirk Koetter over the past week. (more…)

Massive highs and lows on display today

Here we are, 45 Jameis Winston starts are in the books and his ball security is, well, brutal.

At least he’s finally healthy — and a dramatic winner. (more…)

Happy New Year!

Now that was complementary football! (more…)

Last call for 2017

Let’s go Bucs … unless you want a better 2018 draft pick.

Comment here all game long as your Buccaneers look to snap a five-game losing streak against the hungry Saints.

Will the defense dare to play will in two consecutive games? They must if for the Bucs to have a prayer.

Play nice. Have fun. Stick with Joe for plenty after the game, live from the locker room, Ira Kaufman‘s 10 takeaways, and more.

“Jason, watch me keep Brees out of the history books and do a great job with your defense next year.“

A motivated Drew Brees, with plenty to play for, is in Tampa today flaunting an incredible 2017 mark. (more…)

Thriving with Saints.

Of course, the concept of the Bucs having a great edge rusher is a common joke/nightmare from Lakeland to Largo. (more…)

One of the greatest NFL front office suits salutes the Bucs.

A guy who has on his resume building one of the greatest NFL dynasties has stood up and is clapping his hands in honor of Team Glazer. (more…)

Bad gamble?

Man, it seems Bucs coach Dirk Koetter may be the most hated man in the Tampa Bay area the way many Bucs fans are freaking out after word leaked that Team Glazer will retain Koetter for the 2018 season. (more…)

Where the Bucs game will be shown on free TV.

Seven states today. (more…)

Game 16

Saints (11-4) at Bucs (4-11)

Kickoff: 4:25 p.m.
(more…)

Claims no talks with Bucs.

If one is to believe Chucky, Bucs fans who were stocking up on liquor and fireworks, ready to celebrate his return, were cruelly conned. (more…)

Significant long-range woes for Patrick Murray

Eighteen full-time NFL kickers are burying 50-yard-or-more field goals this season at a 70 percent rate or better. (more…)

A former Buccaneer doesn’t like general manager Jason Licht’s’ batting average in free agency. Brent Grimes and Robert McClain, though, have been successes.

Through the years, Joe has pounded a loud drum for the Bucs to lose the egos and open the wallets to get consultant/coaching help for Raheem Morris, Lovie Smith and Dirk Koetter — to fix repeated deficiencies on their watches. (more…)

Joe challenged Ira Kaufman, Tampa Bay’s only Hall of Fame voter, to pick against the spread this season for a $500 prize. Every Friday, Ira types out his picks for each Sunday and Monday game. If Ira hits at 53 percent or better for the regular season, then he gets $500 in gift cards to Abe’s Place in Clearwater, home of historically amazing food and 44 craft beers on tap. Feel free to send Ira your stone cold locks on Twitter, @ikaufman76. The sage of Tampa Bay sports always appreciates a tip.

BY IRA KAUFMAN

We’re closing with a flourish as a 7-6 week against the spread offers hope that this prediction business will pay dividends in 2018.

Still, let’s not get carried away. An overall 90-120 mark will get you hammered in Vegas as you ask for bus money on the way out of town.

There’s only one more spin at the NFL roulette wheel, so let’s make this final week count. (more…)

Unnerved.

A well-documented Jameis hater is outraged with Team Glazer. (more…)

Year 8 of the Gerald McCoy era concludes tomorrow at the Den of Depression.

Three things have been consistent during McCoy’s career. (more…)

Still haven’t replaced him.

Joe understands some don’t like facts. So this may be difficult for that crowd to swallow. (more…)
