Insight, observations, quotes and more from the Sage of Tampa Bay sports

BY IRA KAUFMAN

The Bucs ended another ugly streak Sunday, and if the game didn’t reach the heights of Masterpiece Theater, so be it.

A week after snapping a 5-game tailspin, Tampa Bay ended its 6-game nightmare on the road. In beating up on the bottom feeders of the AFC East in successive weeks, the Bucs capitalized on mistakes by the Jets and Dolphins.

The Bucs forced some of those errors at Hard Rock Stadium, but they were also the beneficiaries of 17 Miami penalties. If Don Shula was looking on from a suite, he probably tossed up his steak sauce. [read more]

How about those streaking Buccaneers!

Winning always feels damn good — even if there is no hope for the playoffs. Or is there hope??

Yes, it’s a Sunday afternoon for the optimists, with the Bucs putting together a rather complete game in South Florida, even with some ugly third-down defense, allowing two big plays and zero running game. [read more]
