Chris Godwin Out For Regular Season

Monday, December 20th, 2021

Test results.

It could be worse.

Ian Rapoport of NFL Network says MRI tests of Chris Godwin’s sprained MCL are back and Godwin is done for the regular season.

However, Rapoport noted Godwin “should” be ready to get back on the field for the playoffs.

Joe is actually breathing a sigh of relief. This could have been so much worse.

Officially, Godwin finishes his fifth regular season with 98 catches for 1,103 yards and 5 touchdowns.

Crumbled.

NextGen Stats often comes up with cool nuggets. This one is damning for the Bucs and may very well be the blueprint for any Bucs playoff opponent. And maybe even the Stinking Panthers. (more…)

The Worst Of Gronk

Monday, December 20th, 2021

It’s somewhat comforting to know that the Bucs’ offensive struggles last night had a lot to do with one of the very worst games of Rob Gronkowski’s career.

Saints 9, Buccaneers 0

Sunday, December 19th, 2021

The unthinkable is now reality.

The Bucs just imploded and lost to the battered and depleted slimy Saints. And now the Bucs (10-4) will need a Christmas miracle to gain the No. 1 overall seed in the NFC, as they sit a full game behind the Packers with just three games to play. (more…)

Jason Licht Confirms Return Of Antonio Brown, Mike Edwards

Sunday, December 19th, 2021

Welcome back!

Speaking on the Buccaneers Radio Network pregame show, Bucs AC/DC-loving general manager Jason Licht confirmed both suspended receiver Antonio Brown and safety Mike Edwards will return to the roster tomorrow when their suspensions are lifted.

“We look forward to having them back,” Licht said. “We look forward to having them in uniform next week.”

The two were popped by the NFL with a three-game suspension for flashing fake V-cards. Tonight is the final game of that suspension.

Joe is so pleased that reason and common sense were applied within the walls of One Buc Palace.

As Tom Brady would say, “Let’s f@cking go!”
