Delivered By Papa John’s

And Teed Up By The Eagles Golf Club

Injuries happen in football.

Just on paper, it seems like the Bucs have been ravaged by injuries in only five games. (more…)

The elephant in the room for the improving Bucs defense is the anemic pass rush, the one that registered zero hits on Panthers backup Derek Anderson last week. (more…)

He’s not Matty Ice.

Joe has been writing all week how the 49ers are flat garbage. (more…)

Conditioning key in battling up-tempo offense.

So the Bucs will face the rotten 49ers and the up-tempo offense of 49ers chieftain Chip Kelly. (more…)

No VJax means more passes for Cameron Brate & Co.

News of Vincent Jackson likely seeing the last of his Bucs days after being placed on injured reserve sent more than a few Bucs fans into freakout mode this week. (more…)

Sideshow Bob’s pathetic play made a former 49ers stud want to puke.

How rotten of a quarterback has Sideshow Bob devolved into? His play makes a former 49ers tight end want to vomit. (more…)

LeSean McCoy, David Johnson, Ezekiel Elliot, Christine Michael and Fozzy Whitaker have something in common of interest to Bucs fans. (more…)

Returned to floppy hat patrol.

[UPDATE. 3:04 p.m.: Dirk Koetter said Louis Murphy did practice today, just not during open session.]

Joe understands Bucs fans, irrational as they can be over Vincent Jackson’s latest knee injury, want Bucs players on the field no matter their physical condition, whether team doctors/trainers have cleared them to practice or not, whether the Bucs would indirectly set themselves up for an ugly lawsuit down the road or not. (more…)

Joe has heard far to many bitter Bucs fans and Lovie Smith apologists scream “baloney” at the notion Dirk Koetter was nearly about to bolt Tampa Bay in January for a head coaching gig somewhere else. (more…)

Players get all jacked up for Monday Night Football and other prime-time action. (more…)

Dirk Koetter spoke last year and this summer about getting America’s Quarterback, Jameis Winston, more experience against a 3-4 defense, something he didn’t see much of in college. (more…)

During the Bucs’ bye-week Sunday, head coach Dirk Koetter was an NFL fan just like millions of other men and women.

He sat down at a local establishment with every game blaring on TVs surrounding him. (more…)

Pathetic third-quarter team.

For much of last year when Dirk Koetter was offensive coordinator, and through training camp and preseason, Joe heard the term “fast start” uttered quite often at One Buc Palace. (more…)

Fly over, tune in and drop dead.

That seems to be the motto for the Bucs when they travel to the left coast. (more…)

Can pace overcome rotten talent?

49ers chieftain Chip Kelly likes to run as many plays as he can while his offense is on the field. (more…)
