Costly whistle.

Tradebait?
Joe hates to write the following, but it is a real possibility. [read more]

The 2019 Buccaneer season ended at 4:15 p.m. on a Sunday afternoon in Nashville, with Peyton Barber prone on the turf, curled up in a fetal position.
Rather apropos, don’t you think? [read more]
“Bruce, you said we were talented.”
Happy Halloween!
Jameis Winston is giving the ball away like it’s mini-Snickers to trick-or-treaters, and Bucs fans are shifting their focus to the NFL Draft.

Flimsy stats
If Gerald McCoy was still with Tampa Bay and had half a sack, six solo tackles and just one quarterback hit through seven games, fans would be screaming their heads off that he’s a loser, overpaid and soft as Charmin.
Well, those are Ndamukong Suh’s stats through seven games. [read more]
Robbed of hero status.
There were so many dumb things the Bucs did you really can’t single out one play. [read more]

Lotta tension flowing through the Buccaneers locker room after another crushing loss, this time to the Titans in Nashville today.

It seems to Joe that the Bucs locker room is a powder keg about to blow the lid off of things. [read more]
Awful game.
Now Joe isn’t fully sure if Bucco Bruce Arians behind the scenes is telling Bucs offensive coordinator Byron Leftwich who exactly to play and what plays to call, but Arians has said in the past it is Leftwich who is putting together gameplans. [read more]
By any fair measurement for grading a starting veteran NFL quarterback, Jameis Winston has had seven exams this season and received three different grades. [read more]
There was Jason Pierre-Paul centered in the Bucs’ pregame huddle at midfield on the Titans’ home turf.
JPP was jacked up and firing up his teammates. [read more]
Those juggernaut Titans and their backup quarterback shamed the Buccaneers today and dropped Tampa Bay’s favorite team to a sickly 2-5 record.
Who’s to blame?
There’s plenty to go around. [read more]
Another Bucs season on the brink — in October.
A shaky Titans team awaits Tampa Bay today in Nashville. Joe is here hoping, praying the Bucs leave town with a 3-4 record and real hope for the season.
Big day for the future of No. 3.
