Todd explores why Travis Kelce has dropped in many fantasy drafts this season. The Todd Wright Fantasy Football Podcast is presented by Hooters!

Joe would have filed this away as nonsensical except the guy who spit it out just spent a day at One Buc Palace and plenty of time with Buccaneers Ring of Honor general manager Jason Licht. (more…)

Shame on you if you missed Buccaneers Ring of Honor general manager Jason Licht on the Ira Kaufman Podcast recently.

You won’t hear that kind of interview with the GM anywhere else. (more…)

“No Mr. Bidwill, I haven’t been looking for work for some time. Yes, Mr. Bidwill, I’ve got a great job and supportive owners. Didn’t you see the boat parade on TV a few years ago?”

Stunning admission from the football shot-caller of the Bucs earlier this week. (more…)

“Jason, strong pick in Bucky Irving.”

In the mind of one of only four quarterbacks to lead Tampa Bay to the NFC title game, improvement is required if the Bucs want to make another run at the Super Bowl. (more…)

Getting the run game going.

Joe doesn’t think this is an insurmountable obstacle. (more…)

Todd reminds fantasy league managers and owners to plan accordingly on how to handle the 14th week of this NFL season. The Todd Wright Fantasy Football Podcast is presented by Hooters!

So the Bucs craved Baker Mayfield’s input into who to hire as offensive coordinator seven months ago, but now they won’t want his input into what receivers make the roster?

Joe’s not buying it. (more…)

Bubble popping?

The way Joe looks at it, Chase Edmonds’ chances of sticking with the Bucs are floating away faster than you can drain a hot tub. (more…)

Highs and lows for rookie edge rusher Chris Braswell.

So Bucs pass rushers — inside and outside — lined up 1-on-1 against Dolphins offensive linemen yesterday on the practice fields on One Buc Palace. (more…)

Draft strategy.

Was this a suit version of “real recognizes real?” Joe isn’t sure but a current NFL general manager with a ring on his finger seemed to impress a two-time NFL general manager who is still searching for that same ring. (more…)

Projections.

These are some weird stats. But hey, if Joe was a math major, Joe would be doing your taxes and not covering the Bucs. (more…)

Stay healthy please.

With the third worthless preseason game tomorrow night, Bucs stud defensive tackle Calijah Kancey may see his first game-type action. (more…)

Not happy with o-line.

For weeks, maybe months, Bucs fans were singing hosannas and raising glasses to what they were convinced is an upgrade to the hated Bucs offensive line. (more…)

So it seems the Bucs and their beloved fans may see more running this season from Baker Mayfield. (more…)

Todd Bowles

Could there be any more seemingly opposite head coaches than Buccaneers’ chieftain Todd Bowles and Miami Dolphins leader Mike McDaniel? (more…)
