Ira’s Week 12 Weekend Picks Against The Spread
November 25th, 2017
Joe has challenged Ira Kaufman, Tampa Bay’s only Hall of Fame voter, to pick against the spread this season for a $500 prize. Every Friday, Ira types out his picks for each Sunday and Monday game. If Ira hits at 53 percent or better for the regular season, then he gets $500 in gift cards to Abe’s Place in Clearwater, home of historically amazing food and 44 craft beers on tap. Feel free to send Ira your stone cold locks on Twitter, @ikaufman76. The sage of Tampa Bay sports always appreciates a tip.

Can’t Buy QB Pressure
November 25th, 2017
“Guys, the quarterback hasn’t been to Madagascar. He doesn’t have The Plague.”
The Bucs can’t rush the passer with their front line (outside of an accident like against the Jets) and they can’t get pressure on the quarterback with a blitz. [read more]
