Add fragile to the list of negatives for this year’s Buccaneers.
What a train-wreck season.
Injured during this game were O.J. Howard, T.J. Ward, Robert Ayers, DeSean Jackson, J.R. Sweezy, Ryan Smith, Devante Bond, Adarius Glanton and Cameron Brate (who returned). Things got so bad that Joe Dirt, aka linebacker Riley Bullough, saw action and was pushed aside by the Falcons like raw Brussels sprouts on a buffet. [read more]
Joe’s wagging a finger at you, Dirk Koetter and Jason Licht. Martin never should have been on this team in 2017. All the evidence you needed was in front of you last season.
No matter what Team Glazer decides to do this offseason, Bucs AC/DC-loving general manager Jason Licht will be under contract with the Bucs through the 2018 season. [read more]

Jon Gruden’s homecoming affair is a joyous occasion, a chance for the Tampa Bay community to express its appreciation for a Super Bowl-winning head coach as he enters the Ring of Honor.
It’s also a sad reminder of where this franchise has dwelled since that fateful evening of Jan. 16, 2009.
It was a Friday night and I was at a local dining establishment with my wife when the phone rang. Just as I was polishing off my second margarita, the office called with the news that Gruden and GM Bruce Allen had been fired. [read more]
Todd’s looking exclusively at the Falcons-Bucs from a fantasy perspective in this Monday podcast. For some of you, tonight is your last chance to gain the needed points to win your fantasy semifinals OR avoid next week’s last place game. For some of you, tonight is where you anxiously watch as your opponent has a player or two trying to gain those same points to surge past your posted score since you do not have anyone left in your lineup. Remember, you can email Todd any of your fantasy questions at ToddWrightFantasyFootball@gmail.com.
“Jiminy Christmas, I can’t control that people love me!”
This is something Joe feared and detailed way back in May, when the Bucs announced that the greatest coach in franchise history, Chucky, would be inducted into the Ring of Honor. [read more]
