Sizzling.
This past offseason Bucs quarterbacks coach Clyde Christensen believed the Bucs’ offense, which averaged 30 points a game in the regular season and through the playoffs, was eight games (or a half-season) from peaking. [read more]

Free agent cornerback Richard Sherman
Per Bucco Bruce Arians, starting cornerback Jamel Dean had the bouceback game coaches expected on Sunday and No. 1 corner Carlton Davis played great ball.
That hasn’t quashed the Richard Sherman interest swirling in Arians’ head. [read more]

Congratulations, Mike Edwards!
It’s not every day that a guy coming off the bench hauls in a major award.
But it’s hard to argue with Bucs safety Mike Edwards getting the NFC Defensive Player Of The Week honor after two critical pick-6 interceptions against the Falcons on Sunday. That’s a rare feat, and the fist interception was a thing of beauty.
Pretty wild that the Bucs have two 2019 third round picks, Edwards and Jamel Dean, making major contributions in their Super Bowl-winning secondary. And people wonder why Joe calls the Bucs’ home turf The Licht House.

The Rams have Tampa Bay’s full attention, and that’s a very good thing or Buc Nation.
All during the offseason, Bruce Arians drove himself hoarse after constantly reminding the defending Super Bowl champs they are now the hunted. He kept telling his players and coaches that Tampa Bay needed to bring its “A” game every week because opposing teams would be amped up to topple the kings of the NFL hill.
But despite all the warnings, the Bucs proved you can’t mess with human nature. [read more]

Team guy.
Joe is confident given the words this week that Bucs Super Bowl-winning coach Bucco Bruce Arians fingered Tom Brady for holding the ball too long on his sack/fumble against the Falcons, all of Brady’s sycophants and bootlickers in Bristol, Conn. will have their briefs bunched up at Arians.
