It’s the countdown feature you’ve all been waiting for. Not really, but on the heels of last year’s award-winning “20 Worst Buccaneers Of The Past 10 years” feature, Joe had to deliver.

A list like this is highly subjective and toxic. Fits of rage were common during production meetings at JoeBucsFan.com world headquarters. Scared interns soiled their pants. Full beer bottles were smashed, and a treasured Rachel Watson poster was accidently destroyed. But order was restored.

Current and former general managers and head coaches might not like what’s coming, but it had to be done. This is what happens when your team is 30-70 in its last 100 games. (more…)

How much time?

There has been rancor amid untold beers at JoeBucsFan.com headquarters, and it’s not about the dipstick who trashed a treasured Rachel Watson poster. (more…)

How fitting that the Florida home of Mickey Mouse and fantasy, where legions of soccer-crazed lunatics run around in purple shirts screaming, “Kaka,” will play host to what might be the most important legal proceedings in Buccaneers history. (more…)

Chances of starting examined.

Sure, Joe is all about competition. Until there is no competition.

That’s what is happening in the case of quarterback of the past and quarterback of the future and perhaps quarterback of the present, Mike Glennon, and “America’s Quarterback,” Bucs signal-caller Jameis Winston. (more…)

Few running backs were able to turn catches into first downs as well as Bobby Rainey did last year.

Good grief, all the wacko things that happened to the Bucs last year, Joe can’t count them all.

Turnover-prone Josh McClown, Ghost Johnson, Anthony Collins… and that is just the guys the Bucs signed. That’s not counting the guys they ran off who were productive with other teams. (more…)

Jameis is talking — and acting — like a leader.

Jameis Winston, America’s Quarterback, likes to talk about urgency. And Jameis is walking the walk. (more…)

Yes, there are thousands of deranged, bored Bucs fans hanging on the happenings of today’s annual NFL Supplemental Draft.

But Joe, the Bucs might draft the next Dan Sileo, their supplemental pick in 1987. (more…)

Alterraun Verner explains

Only Buccaneers players know what man leads the team when it comes to work ethic and effort.

It’s a subjective take, but one worth sharing when it comes from the mouth of a player on national television. (more…)

Bruce Allen, Jason Licht and former Bucs rockstar general manager Mark Dominik might not like what’s coming, but it had to be done. This is what happens when your team is 30-70 in its last 100 games. (more…)

Top 25.

Joe has consistently written that if there are NFL teams with a better one-two punch at wide receiver, if there are teams ahead of the Bucs on such a list, that list is damn short. (more…)

Is Lovie Smith’s defense in for another long year?

In the early handful of games last year, Lovie Smith’s famed defense was chain-whipped like few teams ever have been.

They were lit up so bad by the Crows and the Dixie Chicks that one didn’t dare light a cigar with the defense on the field because they were so flammable. (more…)

Was Bucs OC Dirk Koetter so down on Charles Sims that he lobbied the Bucs to keep Doug Martin instead?

Yesterday, Joe brought word from Super Bowl quarterback Rich Gannon that having Charles Sims in the same backfield as “America’s Quarterback,” Bucs signal-caller Jameis Winston, would be a “train wreck.” (more…)

It’s one of those steamy summer nights when Joe is craving ice cold Guiness and amazing hamburgers, and some of the best sports TV viewing around.

So you’ll find Joe at Peggy Oneill’s in Tampa/Oldsmar, at the southeast corner of Hillsborough Avenue and Racetrack Road. Click through below to see all their specials and menu items.

Updated: Just like surgeons should not carve Thanksgiving turkeys, NFL players should be smart enough to pass on tinkering with handheld explosives.

That’s nearly as dumb as when Josh McCown let his brother Luke hurl an axe at his throwing hand. (more…)

The last Buccaneers quarterback to have a remarkable season, Josh Freeman, is trying hard to shed his leaky, sleepy image while he lurks at the bottom of the Dolphins’ offseason roster. (more…)

Harsh words from a former MVP

The Buccaneers’ hierarchy might have grand visions of Jameis Winston wreaking havoc handing off the rock and throwing to versatile second-year running back Charles Sims, but a former NFL MVP says that combination spells disaster. (more…)

Still won’t acknowledge “America’s Quarterback.”

The man closest to “America’s Quarterback,” Bucs signal-caller Jameis Winston, on the football field this summer and fall and winter will be none other than center Evan (nee: Dietrich-) Smith, who didn’t seem too fond of Jameis after the NFL Draft.

Smith continued his strange silent-treatment public stance on Jameis yesterday. (more…)

National NFL columnist reveals a private chat he had with Bucs coach Lovie Smith last summer.

What the hell did Bucs coach Lovie Smith see in turnover-prone Josh McClown? (You could ask the same question of about five players the Bucs acquired last year, but Joe digresses.) (more…)

Jameis transforms rotten games into compelling TV

If Joe were a neutral NFL fan stuck in, say, the Midwest, or a perpetually half-drunk fan in the Keys without strong ties, Joe would care about watching compelling games, you know, matchups of strong teams. (more…)

Jeff Tedford wanted to return and lead the Buccaneers offense after his heart trouble last year, but the figurative gates of One Buc Palace were slammed in his face. (more…)
