Yes Jameis, you made NFL history!

Yes, Bucs fans, you now have a quarterback who made NFL history. In a good way for a change! [read more]

When the Bears and John Fox decided that come hell or high water they were not going to get beaten by Mike Evans yesterday, it meant two things: [read more]

Upset by Donald Trump

[UPDATE: 9:19 p.m.: The Buccaneers have released an official statement concerning Mike Evans’ sitdown protest of the National Anthem during Veteran’s Day Weekend ceremonies.]

Bucs superstar receiver Mike Evans wouldn’t rise during the National Anthem before today’s game and he doesn’t plan to stand for it this season. [read more]

Turned the corner?

Lost in the glow of a Bucs home win — see what happens when there is a supermoon? — is the sudden rise out of a player Bucs fans couldn’t wait to run out of town. [read more]

BY IRA KAUFMAN

The Vegas oddsmakers favored the Bears in large part because Tampa Bay was playing at home Sunday, but that smile on Dirk Koetter’s face said it all after a 36-10 rout of the Bears. On a day overflowing with Buc takeaways, here are 10 more goodies to mull over: [read more]

Talks rust

Doug Martin had a nonstop, ear-to-ear grin standing at his locker after today’s blowout of the Bears.

It wasn’t the usual look for a guy who just carried 16 times for 33 yards. [read more]

Player-on-coach crime.

Much maligned Bucs safety Chris Conte may have had one of his better games today. [read more]

Brought the heat today.

Joe almost cannot believe he is about to write the following, though it is very true. [read more]

Dirk Koetter explains. And Ayers talks to Joe.

Interesting talk from Dirk Koetter before kickoff today about defensive end Robert Ayers. [read more]

Legend.

America’s Quarterback is no Johnny Football. [read more]

Godsend!

With a few exceptions, America’s Quarterback, Pro Bowler Jameis Winston, was making America great again today. [read more]

For a couple of weeks, Joe’s been yelling for the Bucs to throw the ball more to Cameron Brate. [read more]

Updated 6:13 p.m.: Joe’s trying to make sense of the Bucs only throwing once to Mike Evans in the first half today, a completion that was nullified by a penalty. [read more]

Joe’s been screaming for starting wide receiver Cecil Shorts to make a big play. [read more]

Major, positive shakeup in playoff position

Sound the trumpets! The Bucs won a home game!

And they won it easily.

Bucs fans deserved it, and the entire Tampa Bay roster needed to show the world they don’t belong lumped into the NFL stink pot with the Browns and Jaguars. [read more]

Injury update.

Good thing the offensive line of the Bucs is deep. [read more]

Time to win at home! Losing 17 of their last 20 in Tampa is humiliating for Bucs fans. Joe can’t take it any longer.

Beating the bumbling Bears today at the Den of Depression is mandatory for the sake of decency. You can’t lose all three games of a three-game homestand no matter who the opponents are.

Bang it here with comments all game long. And prepare yourself for postgame coverage.

Play nice. Personal fouls are not tolerated.

Game 9

Bears (2-6) at Bucs (3-5)

Kickoff: 1 p.m. [read more]
