The Buccaneers want you thinking offense, offense, offense. (more…)

Ali Marpet speaks at the NFL Rookie Symposium

How bout that rookie Ali Marpet, the pride of Division III Hobart College! He can see that he’s jumping from, say, charming crowds in a preschool production of Jack and the Beanstalk to a Broadway stage. (more…)

Tampa Bay’s version of Julio Jones?

This shouldn’t shock anyone, but if one wants a window into what the offense of the Bucs will look like, take a peek into the past. The Dixie Chicks’ past. (more…)

Joe’s idea of watching what he eats involves smiling and gazing at plates of french fries. So Joe’s not casting stones at America’s Quarterback, Jameis Winston. (more…)

Lovie needs wins, says Fox Sports Florida.

Yes, roughly 35 days remain until sweaty training camp begins at One Buc Place.

This is sort of like the Hot Stove League time in baseball, when all fans wait in anticipation of pitchers and catchers reporting, talking/conning themselves into believing this is the year their team makes a World Series run. (more…)

Sadly, there are still too many who believe Jameis Winston is a felonious animal and a menace to society.

The NFL disagrees, and it had Jameis play with and coach young children this afternoon in Ohio. (more…)

Joe’s learned in life that verbs are very important, like if a woman says she likes you. That can have a lot of meanings. (more…)

Bucs WR Mike Evans suggests a lack of discipline doomed 2014.

The Bucs were so rotten last year, one almost had to watch the TV between fingers because of hands covering their faces, it was such a nightmare. (more…)

During his days as a starting left tackle for Penn State, Buccaneers rookie Donovan Smith was knocked by some as being overweight and lazy. (more…)

Stud offensive lineman La’el Collins likely spurned the Bucs, in part, due to the charms of Cowboys henchman Jerry Jones.

Joe remembers for days after the draft Bucs fans were out of their minds because Tampa Bay didn’t try to sign LSU stud offensive lineman La’el Collins. (more…)

“Underrated,” says CBS Sports.

Look, the Bucs had a garbage offensive line last year. Let’s put all cards on the table and be brutally honest as if we are in a confessional, shall we?

Joe doesn’t care what position on the line you want to talk about, none lived up to preseason expectations. We can all agree on that, can’t we? (more…)

What the heck happened to Jameis Winston, America’s Quarterback, the guy who stood at the NFL Scouting Combine podium in February and said he planned to win the Super Bowl in February, 2016? (more…)

Bucs icon Warren Sapp’s legal fees keep soaring while his chances of making big money in media again are plummeting. (more…)

Bucs rookie left tackle Donovan Smith and friend

Yes, training camp feels like an eternity away, but it’s really not. (more…)

Numbers point to big year.

Yes, it is well established that Mike Evans is moving into an “X” receiver role and Vincent Jackson will move to where Evans played last season, the “Z.” (more…)

High marks from NFL.com.

There is no question the most important pick up this offseason is “America’s Quarterback,” Bucs signal-caller Jameis Winston.

If you listen to Bucs AC/DC-loving general manager Jason Licht, Jameis may be the most important draft pick in team history. (more…)

Can old coaches improve?

Tampa Bay is banking on that. (more…)

Has Charles Sims been demoted?

Look, Joe doesn’t have a thing against Charles Sims, the Bucs running back selected in the third round last year. Nothing at all.

But Joe has to call it like he sees it, and it often rankles many, whether they be suits or fans at the bar. (more…)

Those who know Bucs icon Mike Alstott know he’s not one to say much, and not one to throw around false praise. (more…)

Impressed by “America’s Quarterback.”

Joe just loves SiriusXM NFL Radio, except yesterday afternoon when it was all Tom Brady talk. Made Joe want to sit at the beach bar at his trendy Miami Beach hotel and nurse Crown and Cokes. Oh, wait. (more…)

The man who has his mind set on “15+ sacks” this season and believes he “should be able to win” got a huge honor tonight. (more…)
