New starter and rookie cornerback Tyrek Funderburk.

One note of intrigue regarding the sad Bucs defense is that undrafted rookie starter Tyrek Funderburk hasn’t been a significant piece of the problem. (more…)

The Manningcast can be a really fun resource for Xs and Os perspective on a particular play, and the whole show has kicked up a notch from that perspective with Bill Belicheat joining Eli and Peyton Manning this year. (more…)

Todd Bowles

If this is the type of defense Joe can expect a defensive guru to craft, perhaps it is time to scrap the defense and start from scratch. (more…)

MRI scheduled.

Perhaps by tonight the Bucs will know more about what’s going on with Mike Evans. (more…)

Still putting up numbers.

So Monday night, it appears Bucs offensive coordinator Liam Coen let loose. (more…)

Wishful thinking?

UPDATE: Whatever glimmer of good news can come out of the carnage Monday night of the Bucs losing two of the league’s best receivers, Mike Evans and Chris Godwin, Todd Bowles delivered it yesterday. (more…)

Has Todd Bowles’ back.

Super Bowl-winning cornerback and current four-letter hot take artist Ryan Clark is morally offended by those in the Tampa Bay pen and mic club who — in Clark’s eyes — had the nerve to badger Bucs coach Todd Bowles Monday night about why he didn’t wave the white flag against the Crows.

For those with working crystal balls, that would have saved Chris Godwin from a season-ending injury. (more…)

This is right up the alley for the folks who constantly stomp their feet about the Bucs’ offensive line. (more…)

Through the 2019 and 2020 seasons, Todd Bowles’ Buccaneers defense was among the best ever when it came to stopping the run.

J.C. Allen of SI.com has word of a timetable for the future Hall of Fame receiver to possibly suit up again.

Per Allen, Evans is out until at least the first game after the bye  — Nov. 24 when the Bucs travel to New Jersey to play the Giants.

Allen added, per his sources, it is “unlikely” Evans plays before the bye week. Allen offered no specifics on Evans’ hamstring issue.

Confused.

Joe is confused. Did Bucs fans want the Bucs to walk out of the game at the end of the third quarter like so many Bucs fans did at The Licht House last night so they could have their heads hit the pillow by midnight? (more…)

Man, Joe might need help digging out of the sadness today after the Bucs lost Chris Godwin for the season last night and Mike Evans to what will be a lengthy hamstring issue. (more…)

A former Chris Godwin teammate didn’t mince words this morning with the news of Godwin being lost for the season with a busted ankle. (more…)

As Bucs fans feared late last night, Chris Godwin’s great 2024 season is over. (more…)
