It’s more takes from JoeBucsFan.com Saturday columnist Gil Arcia. @pewternerdgil
By GIL ARCIA
Two games into the preseason and the Buccaneers’ first-team offense appears to be progressing at a promising rate. And don’t give me that “it’s just the preseason” talk. [read more]
Battle to back up Demar Dotson is on.
So Thursday night at the Gator Bowl while watching the Bucs-Jags game, Joe was monitoring Caleb Benenoch at right tackle, in for the injured Demar Dotson. [read more]
Improving.
Yes, Joe is in the tank for America’s Quarterback, Pro Bowler Jameis Winston. That doesn’t mean Joe is an ostrich. If Jameis effs up, Joe’s going to call him out. [read more]

One down
How bout that pride of Hobart, the Division-III left tackle turned stud Bucs right guard turned experimental starting center! [read more]
Hurt
Joe had to laugh.

Todd’s got plenty going into this weekend for you. First, he needs more owners for the fantasy leagues he is hosting at Tampa Bay Area Hooters locations in Tampa & St. Pete. If you’d like to be an owner, now is the time to send your name, phone number and email address to toddwrightfantasyfootball@gmail.com. These leagues are absolutely free and powered by Hooters as well as JoeBucsFan.com.
Todd’s podcast is full of commentary on Blake Bortles impact on all Jaguars, Andrew Luck’s impact on all Colts, LeGarrette Blount’s touchdown and attitude regression, Ezekiel Elliott’s suspension and the DraftKings pricing for all Week 1 Sunday wide receivers and how it can help you with your season-long draft boards. Todd also had a vision of combining Keenan Allen and Devin Funchess for the perfect WR2…a strange vision, but we’ll let him explain for himself.
The Todd Wright Fantasy Football Podcast has expanded to twice weekly, Mondays and Fridays! …Enjoy it right here and at iTunes and Google Play.

Step 1 is as follows: If Joe sees it or hears it, whatever it is, and really finds it interesting and Bucs-related, then it appears on these pages. [read more]
It’s another Friday all-Bucs video report from Rock Riley. (Yes, the multimedia guru @realrockriley!)
Rock has a look at the standouts from last night’s preseason game. Enjoy! (On Wednesday, Rock went deep on the Bucs with Gene Deckerhoff. That’s linked here.)

Enjoy the moment.
There’s a lot of hand-wringing going on by national observers and even a few Buc fans about some of the things that went wrong Thursday night in Jacksonville.
Nick Folk had an extra-point attempt blocked and missed a field goal that caused Dirk Koetter to drop his head. The red-zone offense struggled at times. Jameis Winston turned in a bonehead play.
I get all that. [read more]
“”Losing had become too easy.”
Winning head coach Dirk Koetter was heard talking about the Buccaneers’ culture yesterday. [read more]
The hype is building.
First it was Adam Schein. Now add two Bucs Super Bowl champions to the mix. [read more]
A little more insight into Doug Martin’s journey back to health and football competency was revealed last night. [read more]
GMC and the boys brought the heat.
It is a beautiful thing, pressure. [read more]
Rough night
Last year, offensive coordinators leaguewide wanted to target passes toward cornerback Vernon Hargreaves rather than Brent Grimes on the other side of the Bucs defense. [read more]
Strong night. Strong scrutiny by Chucky.
Despite a dropped pass and limited touches, Doug Martin looked like a No. 1 running back last night for the first time in a long, long time. [read more]
