Defense Came To Play (Again)
Sunday, December 26th, 2021
Bucs DC Todd Bowles.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it is the Stinking Panthers. Joe doesn’t care. (more…)

Bucs DC Todd Bowles.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it is the Stinking Panthers. Joe doesn’t care. (more…)
The sheet says 10 catches for 101 yards, plus 6 Tom Brady smiles and 140,000 sneers by Antonio Brown haters. (more…)

Upgrade.
OK, Joe has seen enough. (more…)

Bigger goals.
Joe can hear his old man screaming at him, “It’s not a hat, it’s a cap!”
So yeah, today the Bucs finally won their Cap and T-Shirt Game, or as Bucs Super Bowl-winning coach Bucco Bruce Arians would say, “Hat and T-Shirt.”
And Joe honestly doesn’t give a crap. (more…)
Ronald Jones proved again today that he can’t pass block or catch, but he sure can tote the rock. (more…)
What a glorious tonic today has been after last Sunday’s debacle.
Our beloved Bucs have won their first division title since 2007! (more…)

Sort of a playoff-like game today at Carolina and there are zero excuses against a bad Panthers team. The Bucs must win and should win.
Chat with fellow fans and a few haters all game long in the comments below. Please be nice! It’s not so hard. Keep it clean.
Go Bucs!!!

Interviewing.
Joe would not be shocked whatsoever if the Bucs coaching staff looks far different next year than it does currently. (more…)

Cornerback Sean Murphy-Bunting
Today, finally, the Buccaneers’ starting three cornerbacks — Jamel Dean, Carlton Davis and Sean Murphy-Bunting — will be back on the field together. (more…)
Flash poll posted at 8:24 a.m. Flash poll closed at 11:07 a.m.

The goal remains the No. 1 overall seed in the NFC playoffs, and a No. 2 seed would be sweet, but the pressure has intensified. (more…)

He will get the job done.
The Bucs have nothing but trash opponents in the next three weeks to close out the regular season. Yeah, both teams are trash. (more…)

Needs to show up now.
Look, Joe has tried to go easy on O.J. Howard. (more…)

Just a few short years ago, Joe never would have dreamt of seeing this from the Bucs. (more…)

Out.
Just as Ian Rapoport reported, the Bucs will be without their injured star outside linebacker.
The Bucs announced several minor roster moves today, with the exception of one. JPP was been downgraded on the injury report to out for Sunday’s game at the Stinking Panthers.
Yesterday, Rapoport of NFL Network reported JPP would not play, despite his injury designation of “doubtful.” Seems Rapoport has a good source.

Playcaller Byron Leftwich in the spotlight.
Joe sometimes enjoys listening to longtime NFL offensive coordinator and former Chiefs head coachTodd Haley on SiriusXM NFL Radio.
He’s very laid back and not one for hyperbole or criticism, but he will talk plenty of Xs and Os and occasionally wag a finger at playcalling. (more…)

Bucs RB Le’Veon Bell.
Former basketball coach Tex Winter was a man who learned in college something he perfected later and won fame and rings with as an assistant on the Michael Jordan-led Chicago Bulls.
That is a triangle offense.
It seems, the Bucs now may have added their own form of a triangle. (more…)
