Gameday Tampa Bay
October 24th, 2013
Game 7
Stinking Panthers (3-3) at Bucs (0-6)
Kickoff: 8:25 p.m.
TV: NFL Network.
Radio: Buccaneers Radio Network (in Tampa WFUS-FM 103.5, and WDAE-AM 620); SiriusXM Channel 93.
Weather: Per AccuWeather.com, fall is making an appearance in the Tampa Bay area and it can be felt tonight. Tailgaters best bring a jacket or a sweatshirt with them. Temperature at kickoff is expected to be 68 and slip to 65 toward game’s end. No rain and little wind are expected.
Odds: Per FootballLocks.com, Stinking Panthers -6.
Outlook: This has a chance to be very, very ugly for the Bucs. Their two main weapons tonight, quarterback Mike Glennon and running back Mike James, are both rookies and will be going up against one of the top front sevens in the NFL. Sounds comforting, huh? Yeah, the Bucs could throw the ball like crazy, which is what Glennon is doing, and it may not be a dumb idea. But when you are only throwing for about six yards each completion, that’s not going to get the job done.
A couple of reasons Glennon is throwing short is the failings of the under-performing Bucs offensive line and the steady diet of blitzes coming at him. Glennon often doesn’t have time to throw so he is tossing short passes, hoping his receivers break a few. Of course, it might help if stud wide receiver Vincent Jackson would solve his dropsies virus.
Joe doesn’t foresee the Bucs doing anything much offensively. The only way Joe sees the Bucs winning is if the defense creates a bunch of turnovers, which can happen with Cam Newton.

Correction, the Bucs are 0-6, the only time we haven’t lost was the bye week.
October 24th, 2013 at 6:28 pm
Correction: We lost against the bye too. The bye was even favored by Vegas but I thought we would pull it off in neutral grounds.

What is the local tv channel for those with cable but no NFL network channel?
October 24th, 2013 at 6:34 pm
Channel 10, CBS
October 24th, 2013 at 6:35 pm
I don’t think it’s on another channel
But I think TNF is available on NFL.com, someone help me, is that right?
October 24th, 2013 at 6:35 pm
Oh never mind, I’m wrong. Bonzai got’s it
October 24th, 2013 at 6:36 pm
I have a feeling that if the Bucs win the players will go crazy and tear up.
October 24th, 2013 at 6:40 pm
We released Trevor Scott a little while ago. Promoted Skye Dawson back to active roster.
October 24th, 2013 at 6:41 pm
Bonzai I am tearing up with laughter.
October 24th, 2013 at 6:44 pm
Really? Could we afford to release Scott?
October 24th, 2013 at 6:53 pm
@ PRBucFan
I don’t know. Making this move so close to game time makes me wonder if both Mike Williams and Chris Owusu might be out tonight.
Also, releasing Scott maybe indicates they’re ready to activate Steven Means.
October 24th, 2013 at 7:01 pm
Releasing Scott means don’t hit the QB five minutes after he’s thrown the ball on third and long and cost your team 15 yards which led to an extended drive and TD.
October 24th, 2013 at 7:07 pm
Sacks and TDs, something this team is sorely lacking.
Bo Gucs!
We are going to win our first game of the year, and the host from 620 will have to call our QB something better than “Opey” or “Bean Stalk”. Tonight, MG8 gets us a win.
October 24th, 2013 at 7:11 pm
Williams is active. Dashon Goldson out.
October 24th, 2013 at 7:14 pm
NO GOLDSON
October 24th, 2013 at 7:17 pm
Goldson is inactive
October 24th, 2013 at 7:18 pm

October 24th, 2013 at 7:27 pm
Mike Silver
Bobble headed idiot is annoying to even look at.
October 24th, 2013 at 7:34 pm
SIlver reminds me of Lewis from Revenge of the Nerds
October 24th, 2013 at 7:39 pm
What happened to Goldson? Why is he inactive?
October 24th, 2013 at 7:39 pm

STORY TIME!
October 24th, 2013 at 7:44 pm
Simeon gave a deep answer
October 24th, 2013 at 7:49 pm
Man, watching Sapp, Brooks, Rice and Booger was probably the highlight of the night. Like Sapp said, they let him and Rice kick the doors down and let Brooks and the others scheme!
New coaches will know how to utilize this D.
October 24th, 2013 at 7:54 pm
It was the highlight of the season so far 😀
October 24th, 2013 at 7:56 pm
No respect for Lavonte
Surprise surprise
October 24th, 2013 at 7:57 pm
If the Kittens have a great night then I can live with that. But please for the love of god, stop with the dam penalties.
October 24th, 2013 at 8:00 pm
The game is on locally on WMOR channel 12 on Bright House cable.
October 24th, 2013 at 8:01 pm
That stadium is EMPTY
October 24th, 2013 at 8:04 pm
@ MadMax
Goldson injured his knee and went out of the Falcons game.
October 24th, 2013 at 8:05 pm
Tandy will start in Goldson’s place.
October 24th, 2013 at 8:07 pm
Does Vegas have the line up that Schiano is fired tomorrow?
October 24th, 2013 at 8:09 pm
Bucfan#37 Says
“The game is on locally on WMOR channel 12 on Bright House cable.”
You are right. Earlier tonight it was listed on Channel 10. Now the BH digital guide says 12.
October 24th, 2013 at 8:12 pm
Interesting. Dan Snyder’s neighbor filed a trademark application for the name “Washington Bravehearts.”
October 24th, 2013 at 8:14 pm
Inactives are RB Doug Martin, RB Jeff Demps, G Patrick Omameh, G Carl Nicks, WR Chris Owusu and DT Derek Landri & Goldson.
October 24th, 2013 at 8:19 pm

October 24th, 2013 at 9:53 pm
Thanks Illuminati 🙂
@blackmagic, Im impressed with him so far…one of the few bright spots.
October 24th, 2013 at 11:13 pm
