Rich Gannon explains
So what the hell went wrong with Robert Griffin, III? Where did things turn sour for Colin Kaepernick last year?
And what could this have to do with America’s Quarterback, Jameis Winston? [read more]

Joe has stated many times that when a team finishes 2-14, there are more holes to fill than on a freaking screen door. On top of that, the Bucs jettisoned five starters, which one could argue were holes to begin with. [read more]
Yes, it’s June and some don’t feel any urgency for football season because they think it’s so far away.
Joe’s here to remind you that things get very dangerous in just 66 days. [read more]
Joe can’t decide what’s more interesting: Jameis Winston getting a new locker room neighbor or punter Michael Koenen having a fire lit under his ass. [read more]
Change isn’t really change
Once upon a time, the Buccaneers had the NFL’s ninth-ranked offense under first-year (and first-time) offensive coordinator Mike Sullivan. [read more]
Save for the Andrew Lucks of the world, rookie quarterbacks struggle far more often than not. That’s why Joe thinks if the Bucs can get six wins this year, that would be a nice season, tripling their wins from the previous puke-filled season. [read more]
Joe will never forget when Mike Evans, in his first rookie minicamp practice, made one of the silliest catches Joe has ever seen.
You could almost hear all the audible “Ohs” from witnesses all the way to Jesuit High School. [read more]
Look, it is June. Joe’s concentration this time of the year is tilted toward gawking at lovely lasses in tanned legs while nursing cold beer on a hot afternoon more than who the starting long snapper will be. Sorry. [read more]
Greg Schiano wanted his quarterbacks terrified of making a mistake.
Lovie Smith? He nailed his audition for Fear Factor in Game 2 last season. [read more]
Bucs rookie WR Kenny Bell doesn’t have a high bar to clear for a roster spot.
Readers who come to Joe on this here corner of the Interwebs know Joe loves the one-two punch of Vincent Jackson and Mike Evans. They may not be the best receivers duo in the NFL, but the list ahead of them is awfully damn short. [read more]
Joe gets that Mike Glennon should have some first-team reps in June, but the latest information makes Joe feel like the Buccaneers are going overboard. [read more]
Joe has scrutinized the dozens of photos released by the Buccaneers from Day 7 of OTA practices yesterday. The session was closed to media. [read more]
Football Outsiders has harsh data on Bucs CB Alterraun Verner.
Regular readers here are well aware Joe is no fan in any way of cornerback Mike Jenkins. Joe doesn’t give a damn where Jenkins is from or where he played college ball, the guy is a slug.
When Joe thinks of the Buccaneers who are interesting, intriguing guys people in the bar five beers in can recognize, Gerald McCoy comes to mind.
Arguably the best 43 defensive tackle in the game, GMC is both a stud on the field and a good guy wearing a perpetual smile off it. [read more]

Last week, Joe brought word of “America’s Quarterback,” Bucs signal-caller Jameis Winston, running gassers with the offensive linemen in OTA practice.
Led by barbecue pitmaster Logan Mankins, the veteran guard was having his fellow linemen sprint after every mental error. [read more]
Whether Demar Dotson is staging some sort of contract protest/holdout is unclear. Bucs fans truly will find out when mandatory minicamp starts in eight days.
But the notion that Dotson has a strong case to play hardball with the Bucs has Joe laughing hysterically. [read more]
A Bleacher Report columnist is not fond of Doug Martin
In a few weeks (training camp is less than two months away if you can imagine), you are going to see a lot of lists because we are quickly approaching the dead zone of NFL news that is the early summer.
Some are getting a jump on the lists. [read more]
Underwear football hype resuming.
Joe will never forget two years ago, some guy on Twitter was panting constantly about Bucs backup wide receiver Russell Shepard, as if the guy was wrestling between the sheets with Rachel Watson. [read more]
Little used battering ram Jorvorskie Lane
Hats off to Danny Lansanah, fullback Jorvorskie Lane and rookie linebacker Kwon Alexander. [read more]
