When ex-Bucs Aqib Talib and Gerald McCoy are arguing, Joe pays rapt attention. With 11 Pro Bowl trips between them, these dudes are passionate and knowledgeable about all things NFL.

Today’s topic was the Bucs.

Injury status.

The key words here are “possibly” and “multiple.” (more…)

Rams receiver Davante Adams will be alongside his 2014 draft classmate Mike Evans in the Pro Football Hall of Fame one day. (more…)

Still hungry.

Bucs defensive tackle Calijah Kancey is sadly lost for the year with a pectoral injury and 12-year Bucs defensive tackle Will Gholston still wants to play. (more…)

No mas defense on purpose?

So did the Bucs defense ole’ a play late on purpose in the win last night over Houston to make sure they had enough time left to score? Folks on the “Pat McAfee Show” sure believe the play looked fishy. (more…)

Awful update.

Horrible news on the Bucs’ injury front. (more…)

Spreads Josh Grizzard love.

As we all know, Super Bowl-winning coach Bucco Bruce Arians makes a weekly Tuesday in-studio appearance on The Pat McAfee Show. (more…)

Took a beating Monday.

Last night was not a pleasant night for Bucs quarterback coach Thad Lewis. (more…)

Injury talk.

Last night the Bucs were in a very physical game with the Texans and the walking wounded for Tampa Bay demonstrated that. (more…)

Baker Mayfield stretches for a first down as he is pulled to the turf by Houston DE Will Anderson.

There are a lot of crazy stats floating around social media about how the Bucs are one of a handful of teams to do this or do that in the final minutes of a game on the road… you can drive yourself crazy with this stuff. (more…)

All-22 look at Charlie Heck and Cade Otton blowing open a hole for Rachaad White on the game-winning score.

Backup Bucs right tackle Charlie Heck was overmatched in pass protection at right tackle last night and abused even more on social media. (more…)

Discusses game-winning drive.

Todd Bowles isn’t about to take credit for the gutty performance the Bucs had Monday night, specifically the final game-winning drive. (more…)

Baker Mayfield lands on his back finishing a 15-yard scramble on fourth down on the game-winning drive to beat Houston.

Welcome to Victory Tuesday! It may not be as much fun as Victory Monday, but it means the same thing: Bucs win, Bucs win!

Something tells Joe after last night Bucs fans may need an extra mug full of coffee. It’s all good. Damn that was fun! (more…)

When right tackle Luke Goedeke went down with a foot injury, the Bucs’ pass blocking quickly deteriorated.

Your eyes were not deceiving you. The Bucs’ pass blocking imploded once right tackle Luke Goedeke left the game. (more…)

Offensive coordinator Josh Grizzard.

Last year the Bucs led the NFL in third-down conversion rate at 51 percent.

Keep in mind 40 percent or better is quite good by league standards. (more…)

Bucky Irving always ready to roll with Baker Mayfield.

One thing Joe knows from experience: Bucky Irving does not like to talk to reporters after a game. (more…)

Certain things are a must in the church of Todd Bowles. (more…)

Texans RB Nick Chubb ran into wall after wall.

Texans running backs averaged 3.8 yards per carry tonight.

That’s a nice total for the 1992 season, but in the modern game, it means the Bucs did a strong job stopping the run. Again. (more…)

Former NFL doctor weighs in.

UPDATED 12:12 a.m. – Now Joe has to preface what this physician has to say about Bucs tackle Calijah Kancey. (more…)
