The NFC South crown is on the line for the Bucs, as is their nine-game home winning streak.

Time to choke out the slimy Saints on national television.

Go Bucs!

Have fun commenting all game long. Please try to be nice. It’s easy.

Welcome back!

Speaking on the Buccaneers Radio Network pregame show, Bucs AC/DC-loving general manager Jason Licht confirmed both suspended receiver Antonio Brown and safety Mike Edwards will return to the roster tomorrow when their suspensions are lifted.

“We look forward to having them back,” Licht said. “We look forward to having them in uniform next week.”

The two were popped by the NFL with a three-game suspension for flashing fake V-cards. Tonight is the final game of that suspension.

Joe is so pleased that reason and common sense were applied within the walls of One Buc Palace.

As Tom Brady would say, “Let’s f@cking go!”

Joe has to call it straight. And it wouldn’t surprise Joe if all fans are sweating watching tonight’s slimy Saints-Bucs game more than a vegan feminist at Hooters. [read more]

Shaq Dance tonight?

Joe can still vividly remember how Bucs sacks king Shaq Barrett ran freaking wild on the Chiefs and Pat Mahomes in the Super Bowl. That may just happen today. [read more]
