Center Joe Hawley talked to Joe right after the passionate postgame sermon America’s Quarterback, Bucs signal-caller Jameis Winston, gave his teammates — after his touchdown run gave the Bucs their fourth win of the season Sunday. (more…)

Joe noticed fantastic reaction on both Twitter and on this here corner of the Interwebs for the video of Jameis Winston, America’s Quarterback, pumping up his teammates in the locker room after the Bucs beat the Cowpokes Sunday. (more…)

My way.

Bucs defensive play caller and head coach Lovie Smith believes in his defense more than Joe believes beautiful blonde women should be afforded free parking and liquor at all area beaches and bars. (more…)

Joe wonders how much more America’s Quarterback, Bucs signal-caller Jameis Winston, would have developed during this rookie year of his — if he had his top receivers available each game. (more…)

“Sanchize” expected to start against the Bucs next Sunday.

No, no, no. Joe promises we will wallow in the warm waters of victory through tomorrow. But news has surfaced that impacts the Bucs a great deal, as they battle to stay alive for a wild card berth. (more…)

An Xs and Os guru weighs in, and Sterling Moore talks to Joe.

The Bucs’ new dedicated lockdown cornerback, Sterling Moore, arrived in Tampa as a nickel corner telling everyone who would listen that he shouldn’t be pigeonholed and was in the hunt for a starting outside corner job.

Finally, and thankfully, Lovie Smith took him seriously. (more…)

If anyone wants to know who is leading the Buccaneers, let there be no doubt the locker room has been taken over by a young, charismatic quarterback from Alabama, but 21-years old. (more…)

Yearning to grow

The Buccaneers’ high-priced nickel cornerback, a guy recently thrust into the position, would love to sit down and talk business with iconic Tampa Bay nickel Ronde Barber. (more…)

Sackless George Johnson

Sackless George Johnson suffered a significant injury yesterday. (more…)

The way general manager Jason Licht was talking on the Buccaneers Radio Network pregame show yesterday, exciting developments are forthcoming on the Tampa Bay offensive line. (more…)

Bucs rookie LT Donovan Smith

Where was Cowboys demon seed Greg Hardy yesterday? Lots of people thought he would mop the Tampa turf with rookie left tackle Donovan Smith. (more…)

Too much running for Jameis? (Photo courtesy of Buccaneers.com.)

It is no secret the Bucs struggle offensively in the red zone. Until or unless Vincent Jackson and/or Austin Seferian-Jenkins return, Joe has a hunch the red zone troubles won’t vanish. (more…)

Joe finds it rather easy to assign blame or praise to Buccaneers personnel moves. There’s either a Lovie Smith move, a Jason Licht call, or a true joint decision.

There are many examples. (more…)

Mike Evans is out of excuses.

The rain is gone. The domes are gone. And he’s no longer rotating gloves like Joe flips through Hooters Calendar photos. (more…)

Cowboys QB Tony Romo greets America’s Quarterback after the Bucs win yesterday.

Welcome to Victory Monday, Bucs fans.

So the Bucs’ playoff chances are still a reality. A stretch? Sure. A long shot? No question. But real they are. (more…)

Challenging Lovie.

Bucs AC/DC-loving general manager Jason Licht started a cool new tradition earlier this year when, after a Bucs win, he decided to dive in his swimming pool wearing his suit. (more…)

Watch Lovie address his team after beating the Cowboys.

Joe gets a kick out of fans who claim Bucs coach Lovie Smith is a bloodless ghoul on the sidelines, more cigar-store Indian than a human being. (more…)

A couple of Buccaneers know a lot about making playoff runs.

Yeah, that’s right. Joe’s talking playoffs. The Bucs are 4-5 and in the hunt. Joe will break down the fuzzy math tomorrow, but the reality is upon Bucs fans in mid-November.

Looking to talk playoffs after today’s glorious victory, Joe found a guard with a Super Bowl ring, and a guard who spent a career with the Belicheats. (more…)

Jameis is giddy over OC Dirk Koetter.

As Joe was told by players in the locker room after the Bucs beat the Cowboys to pull within 4-5 and keep their longshot playoff hopes alive, Dirk Koetter thought the Cowboys would bite big time on a run when the Bucs had the ball on the goal line after America’s Quarterback, Bucs signal-caller Jameis Winston, used his Chico’s Bail Bonds card to dodge an ugly fumble. (more…)

Lovie’s defense came to play today.

After the game, Bucs coach Lovie Smith crowed about the Bucs defense. His defense. For good reason. (more…)

A leaner, less-meaner-looking Warren Sapp was patrolling his house this afternoon and was on the sidelines for much of the Bucs-Giants game. (more…)

Each and every game it seemed like Lovie Smith shuffled the deck that was the Bucs secondary, as if he was a pit boss in a smoky, off-strip Las Vegas rub joint. (more…)
