Joe is paid the small bucks to share whatever Joe finds interesting or moving in the world of the Bucs.
And there was a tense moment worth mentioning after training camp practice yesterday. [read more]
Joe’s already called opening day against the Tennessee Titans on Sept. 13 in Tampa a “must-win.”
It’s not a must-win for the standings. Duh. But it is necessary for the psyche of a fanbase that’s hasn’t seen a home victory since 2013, and compares Jameis Winston to Marcus Mariota. [read more]
Potential burnout victim?
All Joe and just about everyone who follows the Bucs had heard through the draft process and into training camp was that “America’s Quarterback,” Bucs signal-caller Jameis Winston, was all football. [read more]
Bucs coach Lovie Smith invoked MMA fighter Ronda Rousey when talking about “America’s Quarterback,” Bucs signal-caller Jameis Winston yesterday.
Joe likes creative analogies but must confess this one left Joe scratching his head.
Yesterday, in his daily presser, Lovie Smith was asked about the development of “America’s Quarterback,” Bucs signal-caller Jameis Winston. This somehow dovetailed into Lovie invoking the name of MMA fighter Ronda Rousey. [read more]
A healthy CB Alterraun Verner already making a difference with both the defense and offense.
Joe is peppered with questions all the time about what player is standing out in the early days of training camp. Joe usually hesitates to answer because it is so early, some guys that are getting noticed will be assistant produce managers at Publix in a few weeks. [read more]
Joe’s got practice video
Multimedia Joe aims to please, and what could be more pleasing than Jameis Winston, America’s Quarterback completing a quick strike? [read more]
Joe was back in the steel cage this evening with the dean of Tampa Bay sports radio, Steve Duemig of WDAE-AM 620.
The “JoeBucsFan Hour” returned for madness and mayhem and all kinds of takes out of training camp. [read more]
Charley Casserly of NFL Network is a big fan of Austin Seferian-Jenkins.
Joe will never forget after a memorable training camp practice last year, where Bucs linebackers struggled to stop tight end Austin Seferian-Jenkins, Joe mentioned to ASJ that he had a helluva day. [read more]
Bucs RT Demar Dotson is on this third rookie starting quarterback.
Bucs right tackle Demar Dotson won’t say it, but Joe is guessing he’s had his fill of rookie quarterbacks.
Dotson was not starting in 2009 when then-rookie, leaky, sleepy Josh Freeman started every game after the Bucs left London with their tails between their legs. [read more]

Finally! Sunshine and broiling humid conditions at One Buc Palace for training camp. Order is restored. Joe’s got all kinds of goodies and your need to know from Day 4.
Enjoy! [read more]
Running back by committee?
Based on the news that seeped out of One Buc Palace this spring and summer, it seems new offensive coordinator Dirk Koetter may have saved Doug Martin’s gig. [read more]
As Joe wrote yesterday, Jameis Winston was given a homework assignment by Derrick Brooks.
So Joe asked Jameis about that today to see if he completed his assignment. [read more]
Joe’s got video of the Jacquies Smith/Donovan Smith battle today
Tampa Bay fans have been crying for an edge pass rush. They’ve also been weeping for a left tackle since Donald Penn left the building.
Today at practice, Bucs rookie left tackle Donovan Smith joined the first team offensive line. [read more]
Don’t worry about Jameis’ picks, said Bucs CB Alterraun Verner. Photo courtesy of Buccaneers.com.
Yes, “America’s Quarterback,” Bucs signal-caller Jameis Winston, had a shaky performance today — good passes and ugly picks.
Just like yesterday, he started out Gabbert-like with two picks in his first three passes, but quickly got over the shakes and the longer practice went, threw better and better. [read more]
The steamy fields of One Buc Palace were broiling this morning for Day 4 of training camp.
And after two interceptions by Jameis Winston, in his first three throws of 11-on-11 work, America’s Quarterback was on the hot seat. [read more]
Bucs second-year wide receiver Robert Herron
Once upon a time, the Bucs gave $10 million guaranteed to a wide receiver who already had proven he had Jell-O hands and Vaseline fingers (no, not a tight end.)
It was mind-numbing. A team just can’t carry a receiver that can’t catch. [read more]
Bucs are ready for the ups and downs from “America’s Quarterback” said Lovie Smith. Photo courtesy of Buccaneers.com.
Look, no one pined, beat the drum, hollered from rooftops, and coerced more bartenders that the Bucs needed to draft “America’s Quarterback,” Bucs signal-caller Jameis Winston, more than Joe. [read more]
