Colts QB Matt Hasselbeck talks about the Bucs’ defense.
Interesting takes from a savvy veteran quarterback coming from Lucas Oil Stadium in chilly, gloomy Indianapolis.
From the words of Colts 40-year old, bald quarterback Matt Hasselbeck, discipline is way overrated. [read more]
Lovie’s discipline message just isn’t getting through
So what was the worst of the Bucs’ ridiculous 12 penalties today? Joe’s going to go with Mike Evans’ false start on 3rd-and-5 in the red zone.
Brilliant!
Logan Mankins even got into the stupid act.
Blames himself
Man, America’s Quarterback, Jameis Winston, sure was quick to cut off a reporter’s question after the Bucs game today in Indianapolis. [read more]

Bucs fans have been slamming their pints of beer on the bar, spilling good brew and p!ssing off the hot chick next to them, all because Austin Seferian-Jenkins can’t get on the field. [read more]
Updated: 7:44 p.m. – Despite today’s frustrating loss in Indianapolis, the Buccaneers are very much alive in the NFC Wild Card hunt.
Things broke very well for Tampa Bay today. [read more]
Part of the reason the Bucs’ defense was so putrid against the pass today was that Colts ancient QB Matt Hasselbeck had so much time in the pocket he could order a pizza.
Remember when the Bucs got torched before the cornerbacks combination of Sterling Moore and Hey Jude clicked?
Yeah, when the Bucs were letting opposing receivers run free like reindeer in Alaska. [read more]
Joe can’t find any real happiness this evening, but there’s plenty of appreciation for Doug Martin as Joe sits in the Indianapolis press box. [read more]
The Bucs never had an answer for Colts OLB Trent Cole.
Today may be the first game all year that the Bucs had bad play from the offensive line. Not all game long, but most of the second half. [read more]
Bad penalty at a terrible time.
No, Joe is not going to blame the referees. To Joe, that is beyond immature.
The referees did not drop big-time passes right in their hands (coughmikeevanscough). The referees did not miss kicks. The referees were not letting opposing receivers run wild and free. [read more]
Mike Evans is a great talent who has had some excellent days in the first 27 games of his career.
But Joe must call it as it is, Evans’ issues catching the football are unacceptable. He’s the No. 7 overall pick from last year’s draft. [read more]
When you play a solid football team like Indianapolis on the road — in late November — you need to be sharp to win.
Tampa Bay was not sharp today. Simple as that, as Lovie Smith would say.
Mike Evans? Jiminy freakin’ Christmas. [read more]

Let’s hear it for the birthday boy, Akeem Spence.
The Bucs’ starting defensive tackle turns 24 today, and Tampa Bay’s defensive fortunes turned positively when he replaced injured captain Clinton McDonald a month ago. [read more]
Leader of men. Another veteran speaks out.
Joe noted a few weeks ago that there was a culture change in the Tampa Bay locker room led by the young turks, notably rookies. [read more]
In-house video prevents touchdowns.
What a game it was in Philadelphioa for everyone’s favorite Muscle Hamster, Bucs running back Doug Martin.
Martin ran for 235 yards on 27 carries last week, one of the best games in Bucs history and the second best of Martin’s career. [read more]

Joe shared Monday night that America’s Quarterback, Jameis Winston, was calling plays in Philadelphia because of faulty headsets.
But now a stunning revelation comes to light. [read more]
