Ira’s Week 3 Picks Against The Spread
September 23rd, 2017
Welcome to a new feature on JoeBucsFan.com. 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 will type out his picks for each Friday-through-Monday game. If he hits at 53 percent or better for the regular season, then Ira 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 could always use some help.
BY IRA KAUFMAN
After a disastrous 4-10 opening week, your fearless prognosticator rebounded slightly.
A 7-8 slate is nothing to shout about, but the arrow is going up and Week 3 offers a heavy slate of road favorites. That’s because slappies like the Bears, Colts and Jets are trying to defend their home turf.
Just getting back to .500 seems like a herculean task at this point, but one good week could establish some needed momentum, so here goes. [read more]

It’s Official: Case Keenum Will Start Against Bucs
September 22nd, 2017
Bucs killer Case Keenum will start for the Vikings on Sunday.
Wipe the drool from your chins, Bucs fans.
Case Keenum has carved up the Bucs while quarterbacking for the Rams in 2015 and 2016. And he will start for the Vikings on Sunday. Sam Bradford officially was ruled out for the game.
Keenum, 29, with 25 career starts, should be playing with plenty of confidence (even if it’s misguided) and he’s clearly capable.
