Yes, Joe was on ESPN Tallahassee radio earlier this week talking Bucs with Jeff Cameron, he of “The Jeff Cameron Show.”

Joe has long been a fan of Cameron, a St. Pete native who puts together damned good radio. (more…)

Lovie Smith said potshots at Gerald McCoy are misdirected.

For reasons Joe is unsure of, some Bucs fans have come to loathe one of the better players on the team. That would be defensive tackle Gerald McCoy. (more…)

Thank goodness there’s a Bucs game in two days. It’ll finally wipe the lingering stain of the Washington washout from the minds of Bucs fans.

But the seasoned football men aren’t expecting a competitive Bucs team in Atlanta on Sunday. (more…)

Sunday isn’t just another game for many Bucs fans

Believe it or not, there are fans that only care about wins and losses and whether their beloved Tampa Bay Buccaneers are in the playoff hunt. (more…)

Believes Bucs need a roster housecleaning.

One thing Joe loves about Shaun King when he does a hit on local sports radio is that he brings it. No beating around the bush. (more…)

Trade and re-sign?

No, to the best of Joe’s knowledge, Doug Martin is not on the trading block.

And no, to the best of Joe’s knowledge, he has not been traded. (more…)

With Vincent Jackson out, one would think Mike Evans is sure to see a steady diet of double teams.

Not so, Evans told Joe this week. (more…)

The man who gave Doug Martin his famous handle speaks out.

The man who coined perhaps the greatest sports nickname of the 21st Century has been found.

And the man who has that nickname, “Muscle Hamster,” Bucs running back Doug Martin, probably won’t like what the gentleman had to say. (more…)

One play! Just one play!

Yes, the Bucs are a bad team as we near Halloween.

Could they turn things around? Sure. At this point, it doesn’t look promising. (more…)

So what makes rookie head coach Dan Quinn’s merry band of 6-1 Falcons, the Bucs’ opponent Sunday, a little different than their NFC South counterparts?

Oh, there are lots of reasons. But one difference is they practice old school. (more…)

Updated 12:09 p.m.: Now it’s official, since it comes from the mouth of Gerald McCoy.

No. 93 is hurt, and it appears to be a season-long issue. (more…)

Tactics backfiring?

Could Bucs coach Lovie Smith be in panic mode?

Joe isn’t sure, but if you read a former Buccaneer’s musings on the Tampa Bay defense, that may actually be happening. (more…)

Gerald McCoy put his foot down last night

Rookie Falcons head coach Dan Quinn has former Buccaneers Adrian Clayborn and Raheem Morris in key roles on his team.

So, naturally, Quinn was asked about those guys yesterday during his conference call with Tampa Bay media. (more…)

More evidence emerges that teammates are holding back “America’s Quarterback”(Photo courtesy of Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Joe is sickened upon hearing about how some Buccaneers ask Jameis Winston to be something he’s not: a bystander, a sheep among the rams.

Let the guy be himself, be what made him a national champion and a notorious leader of young men. (more…)

Yeah, bad luck was a moderate factor in whacking the Bucs on Sunday in Washington.

Two injuries at one position slapped virtual handcuffs on offensive coordinator Dirk Koetter. (more…)

Gerald McCoy lectures his teammates

Is there now too much passion and rage pulsing through the Buccaneers? (more…)
