PRESENTED BY

[UPDATE: 3:37 p.m.] Today is the day! [read more]

“G@# damnit Cousins, why would you ever throw toward Winfield? His old man kept me up at night. His kid might be better. Jiminy Christmas!”

It’s bad enough that the man who guided the bridesmaid Bucs to their first Super Bowl win worked with the slimy Saints last year. [read more]

The Buccaneers’ Ring Of Honor general manager has evolved.

Joe is a huge fan of the in-season Hard Knocks series.

What a gem of an inside look when the games really count. Heck, the shows almost made Joe a closet Colts and Dolphins fan. [read more]

Teammate weighs in.

Joe realizes folks at One Buc Palace have been absolutely terrified to say publicly that Tom Brady wasn’t his usual self as a player and as a leader in 2022 — a year in which he had a very heavy hand in crafting a bad offense. [read more]

Key to draft class success?

You know how the Bucs didn’t have a sexy draft? Look at the draft grades. [read more]

Great news! [read more]

Football first.

Earlier this week, Joe was irritated as hell. [read more]

Fighting Father Time.

Bucs future Hall of Fame receiver Mike Evans really had a remarkable season last year if you think about it. [read more]

The Kyle Trask bandwagon has a lot of empty seats. [read more]

The recent words of former Bucs ironman left tackle Donovan Smith sparked Joe to think deeper about the arrival of Baker Mayfield last year. [read more]

“Something’s wrong, Mr. Glazer.”

Buccaneers Ring of Honor general manager Jason Licht now has dozens more people to hate. [read more]

They’re out there: Bucs fans and observers who think general manager Jason Licht put his toes over the line signing safety Antoine Winfield, Jr. to a historic contract yesterday. [read more]

Bucs coach Todd Bowles.

Warren Sharp has updated his strength of schedule for NFL teams in the wake of the draft. And if last season is any harbinger of the future, the Bucs could have another good season. [read more]

Rookie OLB Chris Braswell.

One reason YaYa Diaby did not start until after the loss to the 49ers last year was that he (allegedly) wasn’t yet proficient enough in Todd Bowles’ defense to be on the field more than he had been. [read more]

“Ultimate traffic cop.”

Take it from a Super Bowl-winning cornerback. If folks didn’t believe Antoine Winfield is one of the game’s best defenders, then his new contract proves it. [read more]
