“RoJo’s not staying here. Where’s my treat? Woof!”

The quote in the headline is from Bucco Bruce Arians. It’s the status of cornerback Richard Sherman after straining/pulling a calf muscle yesterday before the loss to Washington.

Enough said.

The NFL Network report had Joe exhaling and finally putting down the Big Storm beer.

Manbeast nose tackle Vita Vea has a knee (MCL) tear that’s considered minor, and he’s got a bone bruise. Vea will not be out long term. Three weeks? Four? That’s unclear. The diagnosis is what’s important.

Vea was hurt on Washington’s final drive and it looked really bad. It’s not.

UPDATE: Bruce Arians said Vea is bearing weight on his knee, which is a great sign.

Massive task with little time.

Joe is convinced Bucs defensive coordinator Todd Bowles broke the Chiefs in the Super Bowl (though Kansas City didn’t look broke last night in Vegas — nyuk, nyuk, nyuk — broke… in Vegas. 🙂 ). (more…)

Tom Brady

Joe’s detecting great pessimism in the air, including at JoeBucsFan.com world headquarters. (more…)

A sad, chilly Monday morning. Let’s get this out of the way. (more…)

Dangerous quotes from Bucco Bruce Arians. (more…)

Joe has gone from organizing a keg party for the Bucs’ first home playoff game since 2007 to wondering about going on vacation the weekend of Jan. 15-16?

Somehow, Taylor Heinicke completed 81 percent of his passes against the Bucs on a day Lavonte David and Devin White put up a hell of a lot of production, including two sacks by White. (more…)
