Well, Joe certainly appreciates Kyle Trask’s candor here, even though it seems like a vanilla answer bordering on a dodge. [read more]

Ex-NFL suit down on Baker Mayfield.

As Joe has noted many, many times, outside Tampa, no one seems to think Baker Mayfield can resurrect his career with the Bucs, much less lead them to the playoffs. [read more]

Still a stud, stat suggests.

It’s been an up-and-down past 10 months or so for Bucs linebacker Devin White. [read more]

Bucs sacks king Shaq Barrett.

You know it; Joe knows it; hell, children who have watched the Bucs practice this summer know it. [read more]

“Rachaad, see the goal line? Run there.”

Man, the Bucs must really love Rachaad White and Sneak Vaughn. [read more]

Rachaad White waits his turn during running back drills.

Joe can’t recall hearing of such a thing since the days of Lawrence Taylor (aka ancient times), so Joe got a birthday surprise this morning. [read more]

Fun revelation today by Devin White about his NFL big brother. [read more]

Devin White no longer wants out from the Buccaneers roster, he explained today after practice.

Bucs RB Rachaad White.

One thing that still has Joe head scratching is how the Bucs, with the worst running attack in the league, did nothing to upgrade the running back position. [read more]

Rookie OLB YaYa Diaby.

The reason rookie third-round pick YaYa Diaby (no, he didn’t launch YaYa’s Flame Broiled Chicken) is getting a lot of run isn’t too difficult to figure out. [read more]

Second half breakdowns.

Joe hates to go into the wayback machine because in today’s world, anything over a decade ago is geezer material. [read more]

It’s hard to believe that Baker Mayfield is playing for his eighth head coach and sixth offensive coordinator as he starts his sixth NFL season. [read more]
