Well, it seems a certain quarterback really likes playing for the Bucs. [read more]

Bucs CB Ross Cockrell.

It seems come Sunday when Bucs corner Ross Cockrell arrives at SoFi Stadium (does that place offer discounts for Sam’s Club members?), he better bring his work boots and lunch pail. He’s going to have a full day. [read more]

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.

The first road trip of the season won’t be typical

Yes, Buccaneers players are expecting to get a sleep schedule from their head coach. [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.

But despite all the warnings, the Bucs proved you can’t mess with human nature. [read more]
