Over the past two games, the top-shelf interior of the Bucs’ defensive line hasn’t been its usual powerful self. [read more]

Who is out?

Sad news.

While Bucs Super Bowl-winning coach Bucco Bruce Arians said several players will be game-time decisions on whether they suit up Sunday, two starters definitely will not play.

We know the Saints have Tampa Bay’s number and that number now stands at 4 — as in four key players who went down with significant injuries during a Sunday evening to forget. [read more]

No surprise this afternoon when the Bucs formally placed Lavonte David and Leonard Fournette on injured reserve. They could return for the playoffs.
