Sort of a weird official injury report.

Despite fully participating in each practice this week, reserve OLB Anthony Nelson is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game with the Dixie Chicks. Nelson is trying to bounce back from a concussion.

Stud defensive tackle Vita Vea is also questionable with a bum foot. Bucs coach Todd Bowles said Vea’s foot was sore this week sort of out of the blue, not from a game or practice injury.

Meanwhile, the Dixie Chicks are at full strength with no player on their injury report.

Extra work.

Sorry, Coach Bowles, but when your brief, on-field news conference was on YouTube after practice today, Joe was much more interested in what was happening in the background. (more…)

Here the come the Falcons.

Bad road team. Bad quarterback. Head coach with a sad résumé. (more…)

Lavonte David weighs in.

Unlike the Buccaneers, the Falcons run wide often, on most of their rushes. (more…)

Easy vs. hard.

We live in a microwave, fast-food-drive-up, video-on-demand world. We want it now! Five minutes is five minutes too late. (more…)

Critical game.

The more Joe studies this Sunday’s Dixie Chicks-Bucs game, the more Joe thinks it will either be a springboard to really good things or the crack in the damn that no fan wants to think about. (more…)

Raves about rookie tackle.

Bucs first-round pick defensive tackle Calijah Kancey played his first (mostly) full game on Sunday, logging 40 snaps. (more…)

Bucs OC Dave Canales explains.

This week at One Buc Palace, folks were circling the wagons for the best receiver who has ever played for the Bucs, Mike Evans. (more…)

Tough days in the Big Easy.

The slimy Saints lose! The slimy Saints lose! Time for a Bromosa! (more…)

Bucs beating Bucs.

Joe could listen to Bucs offensive coordinator Dave Canales talk football all afternoon. (more…)

Limited Bucs buzz is hitting Team Glazer’s wallet.

Last Sunday was a throwback 1970s-theme Buccaneers home game with the orange gear and all the retro touches around the stadium.

This Sunday will be a 2010 throwback. (more…)

Bucs GM Jason Licht.

Joe knows Zack Moss very well because he’s the guy who stopped what appeared to be Leonard “Playoff Lenny” Fournette’s imminent signing to the Indianapolis Colts in September. (more…)

The big what-if of Sunday’s first quarter.

Joe has heard tons of national praise for the Lions after their beatdown of the Bucs at The Licht House on Sunday.

Despite being chosen to play the Chiefs on opening night — and winning — and being a hot club since midway though last season, it is now that the Lions seem to be on Super Bowl radars everywhere. (more…)

Defensive coordinators have sleepless nights thinking about Mike Evans and Chris Godwin. But Baker Mayfield’s legs? (more…)

Critique from Bucs locker room.

After the loss to the Lions, Bucs quarterback Baker Mayfield said one way for the offense to improve is to start playing “p!ssed off.” (more…)

Rookie special teams ace Josh Hayes.

What a Sunday it was for general manager Jason Licht. (more…)

DT Calijah Kancey, the Bucs’ rookie first-round pick.

Per NextGen Stats, in his first significant playing time, Bucs defensive tackle Calijah Kancey had one of the best games in years Sunday for a rookie defensive tackle. (more…)

Run game chatter.

In the eyes of Bucs coach Todd Bowles, it’s apples and oranges. (more…)

Offense will be fixed.

Damn, it still irks Joe that early in Sunday’s loss to the Lions, Baker Mayfield had a wide-ass open Mike Evans at least 15 yards behind the Lions defense and Mayfield’s pass was tipped. (more…)
