TAMPA!!!!!!!
October 29th, 2017 at 12:19 pm
So what position are we drafting first…top 5-7 pick probably.
DE?
RB?
CB?
Im thinking DE Bradley Chubb, then move back into the bottom of the first for CB Denzel Ward.
Thought?
October 29th, 2017 at 12:19 pm
Bucs fans in the stadium will make the difference between a winning or losing effort. If our fans can get into Cam’s head, we win this game! Wish I was using my seats today, instead of watching from NFL Sunday Ticket.
October 29th, 2017 at 12:24 pm
Settle down mad max. We are only six games in and have yet to play a division game.
I know we have looked bad thus far but if you think there is no chance to turn it around you need to learn sports.
October 29th, 2017 at 12:26 pm
Is Simeon starting today?
October 29th, 2017 at 12:27 pm
I knows what I sees and experience makes me sees what i knows coming 😉
October 29th, 2017 at 12:28 pm
I’m in Section 121 and there was a significantly less amount of people going into the stadium while walking in.
October 29th, 2017 at 12:28 pm
hopefully cancer93 does not come out flat or in his traditional home stance of face down arse up welcoming the entire opposing teams offense to score. my only hope the is the defense does not put jameis in a double digit hole before halftime.
October 29th, 2017 at 12:28 pm
The Bucs playoff run starts today. Lose and the season is over.
October 29th, 2017 at 12:31 pm
Think we need to establish a run game today. The tough prt is that we never show much of a short passing attack and not sure we have an ability to go there if our run gets shut down. But we are depleted on defence and can’t continue to get dominated in time of possession and think we will have success.
Don’t think Carolina will try to take advantage of our secondary issues a ton and turn this into a shootout because that plays into our . Instead I expect Carolina to try and exploit our shaky run stop and test our weak zone coverage that has been exposed all year.
October 29th, 2017 at 12:32 pm
Keotter you better call a good time management game. Dink and donk. Run the ball 50 times. KEEP THAT D OFF THE FIELD
Gmc ward baker ( cancer trio) will not win you a game.
October 29th, 2017 at 12:35 pm
Let the Sunday Crap Show begin. Please Bucs…..PROVE ME WRONG!
October 29th, 2017 at 12:37 pm
Yeah lamarcus…….Our defence has played awful and there’s no excuse. But Dirks gameplay that hands control of the clock to his opponent does is no favours.
Everybody wants to give Dirk a break because his offence is effective but he is the HC. Play calling is not his only priority
October 29th, 2017 at 12:41 pm
Must win. Don’t care how. Pure luck will be fine.
October 29th, 2017 at 12:42 pm
I love koetter. He has done well this year imo. Over my expectations. But the d is a letdown once again and litter w media complainers. This doesn’t help the team.
October 29th, 2017 at 12:43 pm
The one time our defence showed up was against New England when they hand Dirk the ball to start the game with a Int and a three and out.
Dirk took the ball and hands it right back to the greatest coach in football. I’ll never forgive Dirk for that game but I will forget if he ever does something to allow me to.
Enough is enough, the guy has been on the sideline too man games. Time to figure it out and be a HC…..not a coordinator standing on the sidelines
October 29th, 2017 at 12:46 pm
Go bucs go Chris Godwin and oj Howard j Winston desman mike Godzilla EVANS
October 29th, 2017 at 12:46 pm
Koetter inherent a losing culture. From the day he step in to now he has done his part and more…… and he is still building. We keep koetter and rid of the guys who can’t adjust to him and his guys. Not these career losing players.
Ward I give a pass to cuz yes its embarrassing being benched for Conte/tandy and he is in culture shock
October 29th, 2017 at 12:48 pm
Jimmyjack
I’m good w koetter
I don’t want to see 5th hc in 8 years. Idoitneers again.
October 29th, 2017 at 12:53 pm
Lamarcus
Your expectations must have been quite low then. I think Koetter has done a questionable job with the game planning, clock management, and in game adjustments. Not fireable yet, but Mike Smith on the other hand should have been left in Buffalo.
October 29th, 2017 at 12:55 pm
Jay Glazer just said JW has a slight tear in the shoulder. Why is he playing?
October 29th, 2017 at 12:56 pm
I have experience of someone that actually played football and learn multiple playboy’s and most importantly realistic.
October 29th, 2017 at 12:56 pm
NO CHANCE TODAY.
October 29th, 2017 at 12:58 pm
I mean playbooks
Maybe playboy’s was the word with your expectations. This isn’t madden ps4 man
October 29th, 2017 at 12:59 pm
Koetter is improving hc
Video game and real life football time management are 2 different things
October 29th, 2017 at 1:00 pm
Lol I played d 3 football @ UW whitewater. I have experience as well. That doesn’t mean that this was to be expected. Give belicheat this roster and he would take em to the super bowl. This is one of the more talented rosters out there. Scheme is holding us back on both sides of the ball
October 29th, 2017 at 1:02 pm
Lamarcus……..The coaching carousel shouldn’t be a reason to keep a HC. Especially not when you figure that most of those head coaches we are talking about we’re playing under a GM that didn’t know how to acquire talented player.
Those coaches that got fired were just taking the axe for horrible football operations above them. If you can convince me that those coaches that got fired should have been winning with the players they had then I might buy it. But I’m pretty sure you can’t…….In the case of Dirk I see a lot more talent and this team should be expected to win more then they are. The coaches that got fired before him I did not ever expect to win with the little talent they had
October 29th, 2017 at 1:02 pm
VHIII gonna get wrecked by big bodied Benjamin and Funchess if he’s still playing off 10 yards every snap
October 29th, 2017 at 1:03 pm
Get-R-Done Bucs!
October 29th, 2017 at 1:05 pm
All I know is when you play Tom Brady and your defence gives you a three and out and an Int and the first quarter stats show that you have been dominated in TOP and are behind in the game your coach has ruined a golden opportunity.
I am not sure how anybody can see it differently
October 29th, 2017 at 1:07 pm
Where is the screen game?
October 29th, 2017 at 1:07 pm
Lol can’t even get 5 yards. No quick passing game.
October 29th, 2017 at 1:07 pm
What a joke! Can’t even get 5 yards
October 29th, 2017 at 1:08 pm
How about our start vs the Cards………..They ran the ball the whole length of the field on us and we stayed in the same defensive set for the entirety of it.
This is Dirks team and he can not allow his team to start a game unprepared to stop a run which they clearly were. He didn’t even burn a timeout to burn.
Again, Dirk is the Head football coach here. Not an O coordinator
October 29th, 2017 at 1:09 pm
Panthers corners playing 10 yards off with 5 yards to gain and we try to throw it deep. No rhythm in this offense. Bad play calling. Dirk needs to give up play calling duties.
October 29th, 2017 at 1:09 pm
Nice to see VHIII playing press coverage.
October 29th, 2017 at 1:09 pm
If Winston is going to float every pass like those first 2, take him out and let Fitz go! Recipe for interceptions and turnovers.
October 29th, 2017 at 1:09 pm
tmaxcon Says:
October 29th, 2017 at 12:28 pm
hopefully cancer93 does not come out flat…
You have said time and time again that it on matters what GMC93 does in the fourth quarter. What gives?
October 29th, 2017 at 1:09 pm
MadMax … I doubt we get a #5-7 pick but if we lose the next 2 games I wouldn’t be opposed to losing on purpose and trying to get the #3 pick as we could trade back and pick up a TON the way the Titans did in the 2016 draft, as one of Darnold/Rosen/Allen will still be available and command a King’s ransom!
October 29th, 2017 at 1:10 pm
Oops got caught up and missed kickoff. See y’all after game
October 29th, 2017 at 1:11 pm
Ok let’s see what they do on second drive
October 29th, 2017 at 1:12 pm
Lamarcus
Where did u play with all that experience?
October 29th, 2017 at 1:15 pm
Do we have 1 shotgun play in our high school offense?
October 29th, 2017 at 1:15 pm
Pathetic offense
October 29th, 2017 at 1:15 pm
ME13 u suck
October 29th, 2017 at 1:15 pm
Gotta make that catch Mike
October 29th, 2017 at 1:16 pm
0 rhythm in this offense. Such a predictable offense.
October 29th, 2017 at 1:17 pm
Playing scared once again. Open things up Dirk.
October 29th, 2017 at 1:17 pm
We just getting warmed up let’s go bucs
October 29th, 2017 at 1:17 pm
TO was a great receiver with inconsistent hands. I suspect we’re going to have to live with the same thing with ME13.
Everybody keeps talking about making “a play”. That drop by ME13 will not be a statistically giant thing…but in terms of this game these are the plays we MUST make.
That was simply a terrible play given that we were finally moving it!!! ONE play like that could show up big time in our poor Defensive stats.
ME has given the Panthers a fresh start!
October 29th, 2017 at 1:19 pm
I think monken should call plays
October 29th, 2017 at 1:20 pm
You guys with the “You suck” comments when a player makes a bad play, really need to shut up. You make mistakes at work all the time. Ffs
October 29th, 2017 at 1:20 pm
Kwon looking better today!
October 29th, 2017 at 1:21 pm
panthers are a poorly offensively coached team
October 29th, 2017 at 1:22 pm
Dirty Bucs
COming from the guy who just said Bench WInston after an overthow over the best LB in the NFL.
October 29th, 2017 at 1:23 pm
Block that extra point. Hold them to 6 here.
October 29th, 2017 at 1:23 pm
well chris baker does suck and jason licht sucks for signing him instead of campbell
October 29th, 2017 at 1:23 pm
First drive defense is playing press coverage now back to playing off 10 yards
October 29th, 2017 at 1:23 pm
This defense is pathetic. HOW DOES THEIR SLOT WR HAVE NOBODY WITHIN 10 YARDS OF HIM??!?!???
October 29th, 2017 at 1:24 pm
GJ VHIII
October 29th, 2017 at 1:25 pm
Please please, I beg u to fire Mike Smith. He is GARBAGE
October 29th, 2017 at 1:25 pm
I understand the NFL is loaded with talent and the other team has guys capable of making plays.
What I do not understand is how frequently we simply leave guys totally uncovered. I’m a big Shep fan but dang…3rd and long and you leave him WIDE open? Too many plays where we get beat mentally or in coaching.
October 29th, 2017 at 1:25 pm
Keying on spence and his one move today
October 29th, 2017 at 1:25 pm
Can’t get off the field on third down.
October 29th, 2017 at 1:26 pm
Nice to see VHIII off to a good start. Conte is hot garbage.
October 29th, 2017 at 1:26 pm
This is getting to be Lovie esq on defense. I’m having flash backs
October 29th, 2017 at 1:26 pm
Spence is on IR
October 29th, 2017 at 1:26 pm
Mike Smith is garbage and he’s the trouble. Why would you have your corners playing that far off on 2nd and 10. Stupid
October 29th, 2017 at 1:26 pm
************************
Take a LONG-TERM view of this team … the reason the Titans should win the AFC North this year is BECAUSE they were so bad Mariota’s rookie year and were able to get a high pick and flip that for a ton … losing can be a wonderful thing at times if one has a long-term view of things …

Winston is not 100%. There’s a huge difference between saying someone sucks, and saying to bench an unhealthy player who can’t get it done. I also said “IF”… reading comprehension is your friend…
October 29th, 2017 at 1:27 pm
Has Will Clarke made a tackle since he joined the team?
October 29th, 2017 at 1:27 pm
Wow. This D is just awful.
October 29th, 2017 at 1:28 pm
gj D….hold em on3rd
October 29th, 2017 at 1:28 pm
Cam is not 100% either though.. So? That’s life in the NFL.
October 29th, 2017 at 1:28 pm
Not There…
Smith has said in the past that how far off the corner plays is the corners’ decision to make.
October 29th, 2017 at 1:28 pm

October 29th, 2017 at 1:29 pm
BALL GAME
October 29th, 2017 at 1:30 pm
Man. That was to easy.
I feel sick to my stomach watching this defense. They have quit. Guys walking off injured Bet if we were winning team they would play with a few bumps
October 29th, 2017 at 1:30 pm
@bucco
Well it still falls on Mike Smith, if he can’t coach these guys to play press then that is his fault. He is supposed to be the boss, if he wanted them to play press they would be in press.
October 29th, 2017 at 1:31 pm
I knew I shouldn’t have watched today.
October 29th, 2017 at 1:31 pm
Got the ball first and still down by 7
October 29th, 2017 at 1:31 pm
All this talent and this is the product that Mike Smith puts on the field. No wonder Atlanta let him go.
And Jamies looks terrible. He can’t hit a receiver in stride…hell he’s lucky to throw it into the same part of the field.
October 29th, 2017 at 1:31 pm
We don’t really need d jack yet as we don’t have a defense that can compete
We are going to have to have 2 years of d line corner and saftey drafting.
By then d jack will be 34
October 29th, 2017 at 1:32 pm
I tell you the players have tuned Mike Smith out. What other explanation is there? In other news, Florida is looking for a new coach.
October 29th, 2017 at 1:32 pm
Not coaching
It’s personal
October 29th, 2017 at 1:33 pm
Nflnut, we usually dont start thinking like that until the last 3 or 4 games of the season…..even though we tried winning last year, it still worked out for getting your “man crash” Howard…lol
October 29th, 2017 at 1:33 pm
Longest drive of the year for Carolina
October 29th, 2017 at 1:33 pm
Two plays were integral in Carolina’s seven points.
ME13 drops a very catchable first down conversion…hell who knows how long we might have stayed on the field.
Then we play good D…it’s 3rd and 9 and Russell Shepherd is the invisible man…how does he get do open…he didn’t beat anybody…there wasn’t anybody in the same freaking zip code.
Carolina is a decent NFL team they will get their runs and passes we simply cannot make a play…ME’s drop and leaving Shep wide open on 3rd and 9.
I’m starting to get ill.
October 29th, 2017 at 1:33 pm
Hot garbage defense.
Bad on 3rd down on both side of the ball.
Flat start
No heart.
Yup we’re watching the bucs play.
October 29th, 2017 at 1:33 pm
Carolinas longest drive of season.
Sounds about right
October 29th, 2017 at 1:34 pm
1st play……. “HOLDING….”
BWAHAHAHA!!!
October 29th, 2017 at 1:34 pm
GOAT,
A good manager let’s his employees work to what they think are their strengths…
October 29th, 2017 at 1:34 pm
Definitely not personal. Like I said earlier, give belicheat this roster and watch him win a super bowl
October 29th, 2017 at 1:34 pm
It seems obvious to me. The Bucs DBs/LBs do not know who their assignments are on pass plays, and as a result cannot play fast. They are almost always chasing the WRs/TEs/RBs from behind on pass plays. The scheme is not being tailored to the players on the team.
October 29th, 2017 at 1:34 pm
Nflnut, we usually dont start thinking like that until the last 3 or 4 games of the season…..even though we tried winning last year, it still worked out for getting your man crush Howard
October 29th, 2017 at 1:36 pm
Looks like a lot of people ditched their GMC jerseys today and instead went to the game dressed as an empty seat.
October 29th, 2017 at 1:36 pm
Bucco
A good manager doesn’t let his employees sink the company.
October 29th, 2017 at 1:36 pm
Again the Yucs offense can’t move a feather pillow in the first quarter. The defense can’t stop a Pee Wee football offense. Tampa Bay sucks was. TD Carolina. Go Yucs. Yeah right. They can go to Help. Coaches suck too.
October 29th, 2017 at 1:36 pm
Chan
Good point.
October 29th, 2017 at 1:36 pm
YES MIKE HAS to make that we have opportunities we have to capitalize on them
October 29th, 2017 at 1:37 pm
Jameis is playing like crap right now. Horrible
October 29th, 2017 at 1:37 pm
Another wide open opportunity MISSED by Jameis. How long our coach is supposed to sit there and let this keep happening? The dude can’t hit water if he fell out of a boat
October 29th, 2017 at 1:38 pm
We need to clean the house. Dirk Koetter is too predictable and won’t give up play calling duties, Mike Smith is a terrible DC, and Jason Licht allows for this mediocrity to still happen. With the 6th selection in the 2018 nfl draft, the Tampa Bay buccaneers select, the punter from UF
October 29th, 2017 at 1:38 pm
GOAT,
Touched! But would it be better if he forced them to play at the line and they were repeatedly beat deep?
October 29th, 2017 at 1:38 pm
GMC needs to have his lazy get was cut. Letter could make a statement to the rest of the team. If we cut McAnnoy, the we can cut anyone’s ass.
October 29th, 2017 at 1:38 pm
C’mon Bucs. Still 3 quarters left!
October 29th, 2017 at 1:39 pm
Winston needs to start his receivers in stride. Thinks he’s Tom Brady, more like Ryan Leaf.
October 29th, 2017 at 1:39 pm
Chuck sims is your receiver back. Why TF are u throwing a screen to quiz?
October 29th, 2017 at 1:39 pm
This team is a damn joke
October 29th, 2017 at 1:40 pm
#3 was moving the chains in a scoreless game. He throws a very catchable first down completion to keep the chains moving the the Panthers off the field but the WR didn’t make the catch. That’s not on #3.
October 29th, 2017 at 1:40 pm
Helmet to helmet.
October 29th, 2017 at 1:41 pm
Holding….figures
October 29th, 2017 at 1:41 pm
Bad call…
October 29th, 2017 at 1:41 pm
That was head hunting for sure. So will we feel sorry if Davis comes up with CTE.
He’s certainly doing his best to concuss opposing players. That play wasn’t even close!!!
October 29th, 2017 at 1:41 pm
Another penalty
October 29th, 2017 at 1:43 pm
Phantom holding call negating a nice play was total BS!
October 29th, 2017 at 1:43 pm
St Pete
Winston’s mechanics are off. They need to let him throw naturally instead of always wanting to change how a person throws.
October 29th, 2017 at 1:43 pm
Lol sad. Loser call on 3rd down
October 29th, 2017 at 1:44 pm
HORRIBLE DEFENSE.
OFFENSE SLEEPWALKING IN FIRST HALF AS USUAL.
THIS GAME IS OVER.
IT’S A LAST PLACE 5-11 SEASON.
SOMEONE PROVE ME WRONG??
October 29th, 2017 at 1:44 pm
gj Godwin!
October 29th, 2017 at 1:44 pm
The only thing we’re good at: fielding punts inside the 5
October 29th, 2017 at 1:44 pm
That wasn’t holding
October 29th, 2017 at 1:44 pm
What’s the odds on a 98 yard drive here?
October 29th, 2017 at 1:45 pm
Now for another 14 play, 10 minutes drive ending in a touchdown to put us down 14-0 at the half. You heard it here first.
October 29th, 2017 at 1:45 pm
Anyone for a 99 yard scoring drive?
October 29th, 2017 at 1:45 pm
What the fu–! Humphries on 3rd and 8 behind the line with nonblockers in front. Letter saying we give up. We can’t make 8 fu–ing years. Pathetic!!!
October 29th, 2017 at 1:45 pm
Another glorious first half and lack of balls by Koetter. Same crap different game
October 29th, 2017 at 1:45 pm
Walter – That play is why Koetter might as well be Lovie. 3rd and 8 and you throw it wide to your ballet Dancing WR with no blocking help? MADDENING.
October 29th, 2017 at 1:46 pm
I would say very good Mike Evans
October 29th, 2017 at 1:46 pm
Terrible holding call. Terrible play calling. And then you punt on 4th and 2 following a 16 play drive by Carolina. Goodbye Koetter youve coached your way out of a head coaching gig. And Mike Smith can get walking too. Can’t even say Grimes as an excuse when Hargreaves is playing well
October 29th, 2017 at 1:46 pm
Boy they are so sorry. You draft a guy 19th overall and he’s it off the game on 3rd down? This team after all these years still has no heart. This team is soft because of stupid coaching. I guess we’re supposed to believe Mike Evans regressed…. Do you remember he is on your team Dirk?
October 29th, 2017 at 1:46 pm
Tough enough to beat the Panthers. Now we have to beat the refs too.
October 29th, 2017 at 1:46 pm
Already wrote Loss on my Picks. It’s the coaches. I keep hoping DK will line a receiver up in the backfield with Simms. Jameis would score a touchdown, and the Carolina D would be in shock.
October 29th, 2017 at 1:47 pm
Letter = Koetter. Damned auto correct.
October 29th, 2017 at 1:47 pm
Three drives and no points. Brilliant!
October 29th, 2017 at 1:47 pm
PATHETIC!!!!!!!!!
October 29th, 2017 at 1:47 pm
Lol 11 on the line, can’t stop a run up the gut. LMFAO
October 29th, 2017 at 1:47 pm
and here the TD drive goes
October 29th, 2017 at 1:48 pm
QB …can’t hit his passes…
October 29th, 2017 at 1:48 pm
Man. Gholston is terrible since he got paid.
October 29th, 2017 at 1:48 pm
The vaunted paper mache defense is in mid season form as the next beating ensues. This sorry, gutless team is just another embarrassment to their fans. God I wish we weren’t repeatedly the laughing stock of the entire league. Penned in the 1/2 yard line we give up 10 up the middle. The Bucs absolutely SUCK once again. Mistackling, blown coverages, no pass rush. Gutless
October 29th, 2017 at 1:48 pm
When do the glazers tell Koetter that enough is enough? FIRE MIKE SMITH
October 29th, 2017 at 1:48 pm
This defense is really pathetic. It’s a shame.
October 29th, 2017 at 1:49 pm
Mike Smith really needs to go.
October 29th, 2017 at 1:49 pm
Hargraves is terrible. Bench his arm tacking rear end.
October 29th, 2017 at 1:50 pm
guys dont be disappointed this was expected. This team is bad. need to watch the quitters and then after the season run they out of town.
October 29th, 2017 at 1:50 pm
Atleast VHIII is trying to play aggressively on this drive. Good job drawing the penalty on Funchess
October 29th, 2017 at 1:50 pm
Hargreaves is the worst player on the roster. Kid sucks
October 29th, 2017 at 1:50 pm
That defense is so bad I just can’t get enthused to watch this game. Totally pathetic
October 29th, 2017 at 1:51 pm
Hargreaves can’t tackle a guy twice his size by himself, that’s what the fatties up front are for.
October 29th, 2017 at 1:52 pm
***************
Well, if there was ever a year to get a top 3 pick, this might be the year as trading that pick to a team that wants Darnold/Rosen/Allen could net us a ton!

Might as well change our team colors to flag yellow and $hit brown. Always getting flags and $hitting the bed.
October 29th, 2017 at 1:55 pm
More stupid penalties. The hallmark of any Buc team regardless of the year.
October 29th, 2017 at 1:55 pm
I have yet to see a decent punt return on bucs without a penalty, bucs have stunk on O and D so special gets overlooked, special teams are garbage too.
October 29th, 2017 at 1:56 pm
Hargreaves gives up 1 catch in a game and a half and half terrible. Give the kid a break. New player since he’s realized he has to press. Period
October 29th, 2017 at 1:56 pm
The blind squirrels found an acorn
October 29th, 2017 at 1:57 pm
2 penalties to back us up when we should be on their side of the field. Your 2017 Bucs folks.
October 29th, 2017 at 1:57 pm
you guys are pretty negative.
October 29th, 2017 at 1:57 pm
I wonder if the Bucs would have made the same mistake of drafting McCaffrey if Carolina passed on him
October 29th, 2017 at 1:58 pm
Bad call on Godwin… defender turned his back and made it look bad.
October 29th, 2017 at 1:59 pm
Same old Bucs. Slow start. They will play from behind and pad stats for players while in catch up mode. Then disillusioned Bucs fans “think” the Bucs have a decent team. Same deal for the season; they will be a non threat to make the playoffs and win a few games down the stretch against teams that are either resting players for the playoffs or non playoff teams that are trying to Developement their young players. The same disillusioned fans will say “wait till next year”!!!!

No chit… welcome to JBF!
October 29th, 2017 at 2:00 pm
I hear every game how so many folks are negative while we keep losing. Perhaps some of us are sick of losing. We demand better
October 29th, 2017 at 2:01 pm
Grrrr…
October 29th, 2017 at 2:02 pm
Winston had regressed so much it’s crazy. We really need to clean house with these assistants. Bajakian has ruined our franchise qb
October 29th, 2017 at 2:02 pm
Wow… pathetic hands to the face call…
October 29th, 2017 at 2:02 pm
Winston’s inaccuracy will be his ultimate undoing in this league.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:03 pm
I’m done. Clean house fire everyone.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:03 pm
What an idiot Winston
October 29th, 2017 at 2:04 pm
Stupid Winston
October 29th, 2017 at 2:04 pm
No, no, no, no, no, no, no…
October 29th, 2017 at 2:04 pm
He will never learn
October 29th, 2017 at 2:04 pm
You have to eat that sack.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:04 pm
That’s his 8th. I repeat 8th fumble this year. Suck fest
October 29th, 2017 at 2:05 pm
JW needs to treat that football like a pound of crab legs. He will never drop it.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:05 pm
What hot garbage looks like.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:05 pm
The regression is so incredible.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:05 pm
Lol typical Winston play right there. Just take the God Damn sack!!
October 29th, 2017 at 2:05 pm
Bucs will never win with Winston. He just keeps proving it week after week. That play is just another prime example.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:05 pm
Just take the sack stupid. Here we go again
October 29th, 2017 at 2:05 pm
Two penalties and a fumble to ruin a great drive. That’s why we’re 2-4.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:05 pm
bad play JW and really inaccurate today…this does not look good. DEF held them and have a couple 3 and outs…playing better not great.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:05 pm
NO, THIS GAME WAS OVER WAY BEFORE THAT!
October 29th, 2017 at 2:05 pm
Stupid penalties. Lethargic play. Dumb plays.
The usual Sunday sh1tshow.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:05 pm
This offensive line is so undisciplined. Penalties week after week. Bench those players.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:05 pm
Bye bye Dirk. Bring in Gruden.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:06 pm
The F—s arentbworth the time. I’m goingbtonwatch paint dry and cars rust. F—- this team.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:06 pm
This is what a bad team looks like. Penalties, finding ways to lose games, excuses. I don’t care how much talent we have, this team is bad.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:06 pm
NO!!!! ITS NOT ON JAMEIS!!!!!
HAHA, yeah, tell that to the Josh Freeman 2.0 lovers here who are still stuck on stupid!
October 29th, 2017 at 2:06 pm
That is classic Winston… do you really not want him coached up better? 3rd season and he hasn’t realized he isn’t still playing against Wake Forest…
October 29th, 2017 at 2:06 pm
Love how all the random posters show up after a fumble.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:06 pm
Tell me again about how great our offense is.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:07 pm
Prime example of trying to do to much make up for the 4 penalties on the drive.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:07 pm
Every f**king Sunday this team makes me feel like Marlon Brando in Apocalypse Now.
#thehorror
October 29th, 2017 at 2:07 pm
Jameis turnovers and missing wide open guys is koetters and Licht’s fault.
Let’s make that clear
October 29th, 2017 at 2:07 pm
Yeah, would totally rather have Jeff Garcia or Josh McCown
October 29th, 2017 at 2:07 pm
Ayers with the whiff…
October 29th, 2017 at 2:07 pm
Winston made ANOTHER MISTAKE? Color me shocked…
October 29th, 2017 at 2:07 pm
Wow. Just wow
October 29th, 2017 at 2:07 pm
You do know that he scored a 27 on his Wonderlic test. You can’t teach a dumb Alabama redneck to make good decisions….
October 29th, 2017 at 2:07 pm
Lol the offense doesnt show up today but the defense does GET ON THE SAME PAGE PLEASE….o can we please bench jamies now and RELEASE ROBERT AYERS
October 29th, 2017 at 2:08 pm
Still not sure why I come to this forum… All the hate going on lol
October 29th, 2017 at 2:08 pm
did dirk call empty set on that winston fumble play? asking for a friend.
~gruden
October 29th, 2017 at 2:08 pm
Regressed? How about the idiot play agaibst Oregon in the Pkayoff game?
October 29th, 2017 at 2:08 pm
Team has quit in 7th game. F u Bucs. Rout their sorry gutless a$$e$
October 29th, 2017 at 2:08 pm
That was a bone head play by JW. Get Fitz in this game for crying out loud. H/C needs to quit wavering and make the decision.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:08 pm
If you want to see “regression” … watch Mariota and Carr … Winston is having the best season of his career this year and is playing hurt … don’t be idiots
October 29th, 2017 at 2:08 pm
If anyone thinks Winston is being developed is kidding themselves. If you think Dirk is what’s best for his career your kidding yourselves. Koetter doesn’t have the pedigree or the credibility to get this team over the hump or out of this funk. You got lineman all over you but think you have time to switch hands on a shovel pass lol
October 29th, 2017 at 2:09 pm
That was a bad fumble but Ithink fumbles were on Marpet’s shaky snaps.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:09 pm
Jamis has his head up his ass
October 29th, 2017 at 2:09 pm
This game is painful to watch. Almost like last years field goal game.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:09 pm
Here we go!
October 29th, 2017 at 2:09 pm
Half his fumbles are the genius decision to make an emerging guard a center. This in a strange way is the absolute sorriest team I have ever watched play. U have the top passing offense in football and have scored a combined six points in the first two halves in the last two weeks. I am so beyond fed up. I’m actually playing the new assassin’s Creed game and the half isn’t over. We might as well just lose now because there is ZERO PERCENT CHANCE of this being a playoff team. One unit shows up the other craps the bed every single. Game. Every. Single. Game. Defense shows up first time since week one and offense is absolutely pathetic. Coaching is poor. Dirk and Mike Smith need to be fired immediately. Yeah I get it coaching turnover isn’t good. Undisciplined bad game management zero adjustments. Underperforming. Right back to being a team nobody wants to play for.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:09 pm
BRUCE ARIANS LOVES JAMEIS … AND WORD IS THIS IS HIS LAST YEAR WITH THE CARDINALS … JUST SAYING …
October 29th, 2017 at 2:09 pm
Please can we bench jameis while were still in this game and its weird the defense shows up but the offense is at home kotter has to give up playcalling asap
October 29th, 2017 at 2:10 pm
All the unemployed NFL GM’s live on JBF! Everyone has a complaint, but who can, on this site, implement a solution. Answer: No one! I want better too, but I don’t see things as dire overall as many on this site. I especially do not want to start over.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:10 pm
Jamis is not throwing the ball he’s shot putting the ball no zip
October 29th, 2017 at 2:10 pm
Good hold Defense
October 29th, 2017 at 2:10 pm
VH3 actually playing well today
October 29th, 2017 at 2:10 pm
edit: somefumbles
October 29th, 2017 at 2:10 pm
Nice save by the defense.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:11 pm
Thank God defense came to play….
October 29th, 2017 at 2:11 pm
Yea good job D
October 29th, 2017 at 2:11 pm
Not there yet
Couldn’t agree more.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:11 pm
At least we’re playing Cam (6-for-13) and not Brady … or Keenum for that matter, hahahaha
October 29th, 2017 at 2:11 pm
It is amazing watching Hargreaves. The quarterback makes a bad pass and Hargreaves is shaking and dancing like he did something. Even if you make a defensive play, it doesn’t make up for your wretched tackling.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:11 pm
Hump is too much of our offense so far. Find somebody else jameis.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:11 pm
still 7-0…relax guys..game still very much in reach.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:11 pm
Bring back Chucks please Glazers
October 29th, 2017 at 2:11 pm
Aimless Winston….getting ready to start another possession….3 minutes in the half
October 29th, 2017 at 2:12 pm
VHIII decides to actually cover receivers this game.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:12 pm
Run the ball with 2:48 left???? Know why? DK does not trust idiot Jameis.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:12 pm
@elliot LMAO if i had 10 divisions of men like that our troubles would be…. 10 times worse LOL
October 29th, 2017 at 2:13 pm
Bring in Fitz NOW
October 29th, 2017 at 2:13 pm
Evans drops are becoming a problem
October 29th, 2017 at 2:13 pm
Another ME drop
October 29th, 2017 at 2:13 pm
Winston holding our offense back once again bench him he doesn’t look good at all
October 29th, 2017 at 2:14 pm
Waow this is bull Sh…..
October 29th, 2017 at 2:14 pm
Nice series there Jameis throwing the ball. You’re a franchise
QB???
October 29th, 2017 at 2:14 pm
3 and out. Sure glad they have all of those talented receivers…..
October 29th, 2017 at 2:14 pm
Wonder if they rolled Jameis out, if that would help.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:14 pm
WOW – Let’s raise season ticket prices
October 29th, 2017 at 2:14 pm
LMAO
I suspect the fan boards in Charlotte are just as negative as ours.
No need to dissect the first half…it was just ugly and crappy to watch as both teams struggle.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:14 pm
Oline can’t keep the pressure away. Lol
October 29th, 2017 at 2:15 pm
Pick 6
October 29th, 2017 at 2:15 pm
Who on this team is playing to their potential? Seriously. It’s bad.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:15 pm
I can’t believe how bad the suggestions are from JBF. I love the site, don’t get me wrong, but Winston is NOT America’s quarterback, we needed defense not more #WeaponsforWinston, etc. etc.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:15 pm
Well this time, the offense is flat. Such a soft team
October 29th, 2017 at 2:15 pm
The Bucs need to rest Winston. He is not ready to play.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:15 pm
why does our offense only play one quarter a game?
October 29th, 2017 at 2:15 pm
Winston sucks!! He over throws everybody except DJax…. he under throws him!! He has a longggggg way to go!!
October 29th, 2017 at 2:16 pm
Don’t blame high throws on Evans…
October 29th, 2017 at 2:16 pm
We needed that 1st down, if only to keep the deficit to 7 going into the half. Please defense, please hold them.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:16 pm
Aimless Winston….
October 29th, 2017 at 2:16 pm
Lining up 11 yards off.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:16 pm
Winston can’t put up points, put in Fitz.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:16 pm
Defense playing pretty well. Offense Sucks
October 29th, 2017 at 2:16 pm
2 out of 3 ain’t bad… defense playing great special teams playing great where’s the friggin offense… start Fitzpatrick second half…. what we got to loose?
October 29th, 2017 at 2:17 pm
It’s like only 1 side of the ball wants to show up game to game.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:17 pm
Listen the fumble was on #3….but he’s struggling to carry this team on his shoulders….MOST IMPORTANTLY one of those shoulders…the one he THROWS with is bum. Jay Glazier reported a slight tear and possible off season surgery.
He’s also suffered two critical drops now from his most trusted receiver.
There is PLENTY of blame to go around for our horrid first half…the only reason we’re in this game is Carolina sucked too.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:17 pm
Panthers are clowning ME13 and Famous J on their sidelines. in our stadium. sheesh.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:17 pm
Nfl nut your the idiot! Open your eyes,how is Winston having his best year? He has 8 fumbles already this year.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:17 pm
We all know Winston is a second half QB. Let’s just hope our defense can hold this game to 7-0 at halftime
October 29th, 2017 at 2:17 pm
Even if Jameis completes a pass, the receiver has to stop or turn to make the catch. Watch good QB’s who keep the receiver running in stride and getting all the YAK’s.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:17 pm
Jameis must play better. No excuses for this in accuracy and I normally defend him but he is missing every way possible. High, low, to far out front. And when he is accurate we drop the ball or get a stupid penalty.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:18 pm
The Falcons are getting slapped around by the J-E-T-S … if the Jets win that game they’ll be 4-4 and the defending NFC Champs will be 3-4 … I honestly thought the Jets were dumping all their good players and going to TANK ON PURPOSE this year to get the #1 pick and draft a franchise QB … very strange.
I would be furious if I was a Jets fan … I would WANT the team to lose every game!
October 29th, 2017 at 2:18 pm
Too early to call Next Year?
Start with dumping Mike Smith…and tell Koetter to stop letting Raheem call plays.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:18 pm
2-5 here we come and then we can talk draft.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:18 pm
NEWSFLASH. EVERYBODY SUCKING RIGHT NOW Baker and Vh3 came to play
October 29th, 2017 at 2:18 pm
Winston is inaccurate as usual
October 29th, 2017 at 2:19 pm
Hey Donut…. 7-0 will most likely be enough to win this game. Come into reality. Need to shake things up at half time and bench those lineman who consistently hold and false start.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:20 pm
*************
SERIOUS QUESTION: Could it be that our slow starts are due to Koetter not being able to game-plan in advance … that he’s constantly out-coached in regards to preparation and that it takes him a full half of football to figure out what the defense is doing and to get a decent game-plan ready for the 2nd half?
*************
October 29th, 2017 at 2:20 pm
Where is the play calling from last week.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:20 pm
hmmmmmmmmmm so much for turning the tables and coming out of the gates fast on offense. Just horrible to see the lack of urgency or effort on most of the plays. Just watching the game it is so obvious when they are going to run martin right up the middle for no gain. Soooooo many wasted downs. Our play calling is high school level at best. wouldnt be suprised to see carolina march down here at end and score again.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:20 pm
Block that extra point
October 29th, 2017 at 2:20 pm
@bucsfanforlife shooot i called after the pats loss.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:21 pm
Baker and Vh3 came to play. Umm yall boy gmc is checked out. Uninspired flat
October 29th, 2017 at 2:21 pm
That is classic Winston… do you really not want him coached up better? 3rd season and he hasn’t realized he isn’t still playing against Wake Forest…
yet 3 is on pace to set every qb and offensive record in bucs history… Short shighted dumbarses…
Give me the gambler he will win more than the conservatice pansy arses who want to see a scared team playing with no heart. it’s no coincidence it’s mostly the same losers who support the career losing choirboy gmc who is the undisputed face of the basement years.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:21 pm
Conte bit on that. So undiscipllned.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:21 pm
It ain’t Koetter….it is Aimless Jameis….
October 29th, 2017 at 2:21 pm
Glad they leaving mcaffrey open every.single.time
October 29th, 2017 at 2:21 pm
Go bucs baby, hellz yeah, best season ever.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:22 pm
McKaffrey =our weekly HOF Buc slayer. Joke of the league is what we are. Fire Smith at halftime
October 29th, 2017 at 2:22 pm
Please someone tell me why Justin Evans isn’t a better option than Conte?
October 29th, 2017 at 2:22 pm
TERRIBLE BLITZ. No one got near Cam.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:22 pm
@lamarcus yeah hes gone after this year i think. retire or ask to get traded.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:22 pm
When was the last time we led at the half?
October 29th, 2017 at 2:23 pm
Against the bears, maybe lol?
October 29th, 2017 at 2:23 pm
I rest my case.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:24 pm
Way to start fast boys.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:24 pm
@tmaxcon i nornally disagree but GMC has mailed it in this season.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:24 pm
Mike Evans will not resign with the Bucs….you heard it first here….WTF would he with Aimless Jameis
October 29th, 2017 at 2:25 pm
Another crap first half
Unacceptable
October 29th, 2017 at 2:25 pm
I hope they bring back blackouts so I don’t have to turn my room.into the den of depression
October 29th, 2017 at 2:25 pm
@alteredego money talks bubba
October 29th, 2017 at 2:25 pm
You mean the guy with 2 drops in the first half?
October 29th, 2017 at 2:26 pm
M EVANS SUCKS!!!!!!!!
October 29th, 2017 at 2:26 pm
What are we doing??? Take a knee!!!
October 29th, 2017 at 2:26 pm
Have Winston get his shoulder surgery now, tank the rest of the season for a high pick, draft a DE or LT in the first
October 29th, 2017 at 2:26 pm
Is Mike Evans going to catch a pass today?
October 29th, 2017 at 2:26 pm
where is OJ Howard in the pass game? GRRRRR?!?!? what did we draft him for?
October 29th, 2017 at 2:27 pm
ME- agree with you. Let’s play Fitz and have JW get his surgery.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:27 pm
@MikeEvansGoat – that may not be such a bad idea.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:28 pm
I guess Evans is taking a knee this game
October 29th, 2017 at 2:28 pm
@mike evans GOAT not a bad idea. play goodwin more too. the future is now… again with this team. throw justin evans in there too.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:28 pm
Shut out at half. Glad I’m not there
October 29th, 2017 at 2:28 pm
17 secs, down by 10 @ the 25, no rhythm to offense, so against taking a knee you jeopardize players getting injured on a chance play, seriously
October 29th, 2017 at 2:28 pm
My Dad’s had 4 Season Tickets since 1987. He donated the rest of this year to The Boys and Girls Club and he’s not renewing next year.
He said it’s pointless because they are still YEARS away from being relevant again.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:28 pm
Keep telling me about our amazing offense guys!
Like I said over and over they are invisible during the first half of games.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:28 pm
Jameis is just not sharp. Could be the shoulder. Can’t fault the defense,as
many chances as the offense has given Carolina .
October 29th, 2017 at 2:29 pm
The players have no confidence in this scheme or the coaches, and it shows on the field. Time for a change. Bring in a proven winner.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:29 pm
The ME13 pattern is to lose focus when it becomes obvious the season is a wash. Happens every year with this guy.

Nobody has ever referred to Tom Brady or Joe Montana as being “gunslingers” yet you prefer Favre, who won what, 1 super bowl???
You, sir, must be shortsighted and easily entertained by shiny objects…
October 29th, 2017 at 2:29 pm
Down by 10. We have them right where we want them. We are so bad lol.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:29 pm
How amny points did the Bucs score…in a league tilted over backwards for offensive football ?….Aimless Jameis
October 29th, 2017 at 2:29 pm
Tank the season, Draft Saquon Barkley, 3 Dlineman, 2 corners, and a right tackle.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:30 pm
10-0. Coaches suck especially Koetter. He needs to go back to being an OC. Smith is a bad joke. I always wondered why Atlanta fired him even after they got in the playoffs. Now, I know. Doubt we’ll have cardiac bucs win today. 🙁
October 29th, 2017 at 2:30 pm
The Bucs do have an amazing offense. Problem is the below average coaching.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:31 pm
Evans has terrible hands. It’s a 50 percent chance he catches it. He does make big plays once in awhile but he is to in consistent as a WR to have him out there every play.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:31 pm
If we can get a new QB in here (Dungey -Syracuse) and get a pass rush and draft another CB and DT over the next 2 years (along with another DC) We might be able to start competing.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:31 pm
Evans can’t catch a cold. Suck fest. Koetter and his entire bunch of gutless coaches and pretend athletes can’t do anything correctly. Most inept, sorry excuse of a wanna be NFL team I’ve seen since uh Schiano and Rageem’s clowns. Worst part is these losers have talent. They just suck out loud. This debacle needs to cost jobs. Don’t tolerate this foolishness Glazers
October 29th, 2017 at 2:31 pm
When our best offensive lineman goes down.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:31 pm
Trade Evans and Winston for draft picks NOW!!!!!!!!!!
October 29th, 2017 at 2:32 pm
Season over gang. This team has given up. Penalties show their heads are not in the game.
Time to start talking draft picks.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:32 pm
The Panthers beating us with a 1930s, single wing, Mike Shula coached offense that looks more innovative than ours.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:32 pm
Chucky was just spotted walking into the Glazer’s suite.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:32 pm
@blake
I would prefer we draft some DE help in the first. We have a lot of fire power on offense, just a horrible scheme. We can get a rb in the 2nd or 3rd
October 29th, 2017 at 2:32 pm
Mike Shula–the yahoo who got Dungy fired–is calling the Panthers’ offense. Talk about insult to injury!
October 29th, 2017 at 2:33 pm
Yet another gane of bad accuracy and bad defense. Turning this crap off
October 29th, 2017 at 2:33 pm
Only down 10. At least we are still in it. 👍
October 29th, 2017 at 2:33 pm
Well at least Dotson is ok….LMAO!
October 29th, 2017 at 2:34 pm
only down by 10 but the Panthers have the ball after the half. They’ll most like score then too.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:34 pm
I only came here to get my fix for reading a “taking a knee” reference from a Trump-Tard. Mission accomplished.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:35 pm
Josh McNown lighting it up! lol #3 not so much
October 29th, 2017 at 2:35 pm
Leave it to the Bucs to prove I an right! The offensive stats are truly for losers! Again down 10–0 halftime. That means in the FIVE games we were down (10 quarters) the Bucs have scored 16 points by the half. Only Two of those games we were getting blown out. So who is really to blame? The precious QB and the offense consistently going three and out then when we do get it going it is penalty after penalty.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:35 pm
I think NFLNUT has a valid point. We almost never jump out to a nice lead against anyone. You know like GOOD teams do. And like already stated how can you go from going to TE howard for 2 touchdowns one week and not even look his way next. This team has so many holes to fix its not funny. If you cant get professional players to give a good effort than thats on the coaches. Namely the head coach. Ive been disgusted with the buccaneers before but never this quickly in the season when they had such promise going in. argggggggggggggg
October 29th, 2017 at 2:36 pm
This is the worst coached football team I have ever seen. So predictable on offense the play calling is horrible we have no open receivers. Jameis has to throw in tight windows. And then anytime we get a good play there’s a penalty. And jameis is the worst first half quarterback I have ever seen. Even worse than freeman. But don’t worry joe will sing his praises this week when we are down 20 in the 4th and he throws for 200 yards against a prevent designed to give up yards. And he will have 300 and we will hear about all the records he is going to break. The only records that are breaking is the bucs record.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:37 pm
10 points is enough when you are playing against Winston.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:37 pm
tmax…
Any rebuttal?
October 29th, 2017 at 2:37 pm
Bucnjim, we’re making too much sense for the minions still stuck on stupid…they cant comprehend it. Its sad really….but is what it is.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:38 pm
Got the ball first and still down by 10 at halftime. So much for that first ranked passing game. Always coming from behind
October 29th, 2017 at 2:38 pm
Thank goodness for NFL networks RED ZONE I can watch real teams play !
October 29th, 2017 at 2:38 pm
With the season on the line(over I mean), the suckaneers show how pansy a$$ they really are. Koetter and his horrific coaching staff owe us a refund. Especially all the fans that paid money to watch this weekly train wreck in person
October 29th, 2017 at 2:38 pm
MadMax demanding we trade Jameis & Evans … HAHAHA … what a tool
October 29th, 2017 at 2:38 pm
This team plays a mentality weak brand of football. They poorly prepared week in and out. Dropped balls, stupid pentalaties, sloppy turnovers.
It’s the same thing every week. OUR poorly prepared Bucs play themselves into a hole in the first half and Winston has to try to carry us on his back in the 2nd. We need a HC that will get this team ready to play a professional brand of football.
This leaderless bunch of coordnitators trying to win games in the film room is providing us fans with nothing but a flat an unmotivated football team. They want a badass football team and so do I.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:38 pm
2nd half!! Showtime!
October 29th, 2017 at 2:39 pm
We are a second half team, right?
October 29th, 2017 at 2:39 pm
Uh maybe Mike Evans is angry because it’s a contact year and this team upgraded all it’s weapons only to come out against the Panthers and feature Adam hump. The game plan is complete madness and why would anyone need another year to see that these coaches don’t have a plan.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:39 pm
@madmax absolutely bring him in. Make JW hearn that extention. heat that seat up. competition never hurt nobody.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:39 pm
we have an amazing offense you said? LOLOL ok
October 29th, 2017 at 2:40 pm
LOL…Showtime for who?
October 29th, 2017 at 2:40 pm
Please just blow the whole team up this offseason and start over. Get rid of all the free ride guys. And just bring in a bunch of players who want to play. And bring in some coaches that know what they are doing. Coming out flat every game is on the coaches for not getting the players motivated. If my boss lets me slack at work all day with no consequences you think I’m not going to sit back and read some articles and surf the web. Instead of working my ass off all day.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:40 pm
dare I say shades of Free Free
October 29th, 2017 at 2:40 pm
This O takes a while to wake up most weeks. I’ll keep the tv on and see if they can get back into it. D has not been great today, but better than previous games. We just need a spark. Let’s go Bucs! Wake up time.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:41 pm
@Mike the Goat
Trust me. I want us to address the pass rush in the worst way. Problem is the 2018 class ain’t exactly loaded with top tier edge rushers.
But Barkley is a bonafide stud.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:41 pm
Winston has 8 fumbles already this year. That would seem to be a problem.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:41 pm
Nut, tools are used, usually in a fashion to fix things. I’ll take that.
But why not? We need better players and draft picks to get them….signing them sure as hll doesnt seem to work!
October 29th, 2017 at 2:42 pm
“Last four games, Bucs offense has 20 first-half possessions – 1 TD (vs. Patriots), two field goals, 12 punts, 2 fumble, INT, downs, miss FG.”
October 29th, 2017 at 2:42 pm
Let’s go Bucs! A new half – make it great!
October 29th, 2017 at 2:42 pm
And our kicker has to make the tackle to begin the second half.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:42 pm
We have twice the penalty yards as rushing yards in a must win game. These suckaneers have quit. Rout these losers
October 29th, 2017 at 2:42 pm
Yeah Rob. The season basically was on the line. The way I saw it if Dirk was ever going to prove he was capable of getting this team to play a winning brand of football this was his last chance. All we got was the same sorry brand of uninspired unmotivated lame football.
This guy is a play caller not a leader of men……down by ten and he leaves three wasted timouts in his pocket. He can’t motivate and can’t manage the game even.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:43 pm
Shoulda never let shep go.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:44 pm
@johnboy
You must not watch the games ver close or you would know over half of those “fumbles” are on Ali Marpet learning to play center.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:44 pm
Conte sucks!
October 29th, 2017 at 2:44 pm
Conte PICK!
October 29th, 2017 at 2:45 pm
Good T/O Conte!
October 29th, 2017 at 2:45 pm
Conte finally someone played FAST. Like he actually knew what to expect and ANTICIPATED the play. FINALLY!
October 29th, 2017 at 2:45 pm
There you go Conte!
October 29th, 2017 at 2:45 pm
Conte, a play made, now can the offense drive down the field
October 29th, 2017 at 2:45 pm
MADMAX … sir, you’re certifiable … the Bucs should trade ME & JW … the Raiders should then DEFINITELY dump Carr & Amari … Titans should DEFINITELY dump Mariota & Davis … Falcons should DEFINITELY dump Ryan and Julio who are both having HORRIBLE years … YOU SIR ARE A LOON!
October 29th, 2017 at 2:46 pm
Did we actually make a play? Pick six time Jameis
October 29th, 2017 at 2:46 pm
INT doesn’t matter, we won’t do anything with it
October 29th, 2017 at 2:46 pm
Classic. People say mike Evans sucks.
Yah. He is having worst game as a buc. No question.
He is hands down their best player. So please stop making those idiotic comments.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:47 pm
Even if we do come back the first half learned me that Dirk is no HC. His biggest game as a HC and his team is nowhere near being the badass he knows we need to be to contend in this league.
It’s one thing to want a badass football team it’s another to teach your team how o be one…….get this coordinator dressed in khakis out of here if he can’t figure it out. 31 games in and he still ain’t getting it. Forgive me for assuming he never will
October 29th, 2017 at 2:47 pm
go big feed 11 JW make the faking throw you got this!!!
October 29th, 2017 at 2:48 pm
Nice run, lets build on this!
October 29th, 2017 at 2:50 pm
The over glorified o-line is again not doing anything consistently well. Games are won in the trenches….We suck on both sides.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:50 pm
Lol. God we SUCK. Punt team
October 29th, 2017 at 2:51 pm
Sweezy is horrible.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:51 pm
Nice block Doug
October 29th, 2017 at 2:51 pm
This is a joke.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:51 pm
We really needed some points on that drive…
October 29th, 2017 at 2:51 pm
Sweezy and Dougie missed him. terrible.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:52 pm
Anger the Bucs MVP.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:52 pm
No, Bobby, you are wrong. The Joes assured us the o line is playing just fine. It’s the running backs who are the problem.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:52 pm
Sweezy just got abused on that sack.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:52 pm
Come on bucs !!
October 29th, 2017 at 2:53 pm
C’mon Elite offense #1 in passing, joe says your a great offense line.wtf
October 29th, 2017 at 2:53 pm
SHOtgun plays and some slants
October 29th, 2017 at 2:53 pm
It seems like they dont want to win.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:54 pm
I really don’t want to be typing when the game is on. But the weak azz effect of the team has completely lost my interest.
The season on the line and they come out and get pushed around. I’m trying my hardest to just give up caring but it’s so darn hard
October 29th, 2017 at 2:54 pm
next year they need to focus on both lines and theyll be much better off. no more weapons for winston. im all for tanking this season and letting the rookies play lets see what we got.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:54 pm
Tampa bay Hype, Yucs are back!
October 29th, 2017 at 2:54 pm
Bird. Are you out of your mind. Evans has more dropped passes then anyone in the NFL starting from the beginning of last season. He does make some outstanding catches once in awhile I will give you that, but he drops passes right in his hands consistently.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:55 pm
DK is failing as a HC. More Buc karma. Ridiculous and sad. Wish we fans owned the team. They would be 4-2 and winning.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:56 pm
wheres your man crush (Howard) NflNut? Why isnt JW3 hitting him?
October 29th, 2017 at 2:56 pm
Great job turning that pick into points!
October 29th, 2017 at 2:56 pm
We do have a good offensive line. But they aren’t playing physical. That’s a sin based on the fact that a few of them can be maulers too.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:56 pm
Brion, you’re a dumbass. Joe please start banning the unsolicited politics
October 29th, 2017 at 2:56 pm
Well on the bright side we got those weapons for Winston.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:57 pm
Is someone who promoted this offense being number two going to step up and defend their position? McCoy the ghost of Christmas present? Yes!
October 29th, 2017 at 2:58 pm
Target Godwin and oj Howard more please get some RB in the flats please let’s get a couple of slants going I have faith in you
October 29th, 2017 at 2:59 pm
You’re kidding Jöe says ” The offensive line is playing fine”. Better start checking their stats on that one.
October 29th, 2017 at 2:59 pm
That was a Jalen hurts pass
October 29th, 2017 at 3:00 pm
Underthrown on the deep ball… again
October 29th, 2017 at 3:00 pm
Y’all wanna keep pretending the Bucs are anything but HORRIBLE?
October 29th, 2017 at 3:00 pm
Underthrown again…
October 29th, 2017 at 3:00 pm
Don’t blame Winston. We came out playing one dimensional again. Gotta let your Oline have some fun and bruise the other team…….Instead we now have the panthers Dline building confidence and manhandling us
October 29th, 2017 at 3:00 pm
Beirut’s quarterback
October 29th, 2017 at 3:00 pm
25 overthrows and he underthrowa that one lol
October 29th, 2017 at 3:01 pm
I finally purchased Sunday ticket because i thought this year would be different, but watching complete games this year. Winston misses WAAAAAYYYY to many easy throws
October 29th, 2017 at 3:01 pm
Move them chains!
October 29th, 2017 at 3:01 pm
Doug Martin is our best player. Always plays and runs hard.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:02 pm
Run,run,run, screen
October 29th, 2017 at 3:02 pm
Here is the really sad part for the McCoy triple teamed fans…… he hasn’t even been doubled and has been seen watching everyone else make plays.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:02 pm
Why Jacquiz there? Didn’t Doug just rip off big runs?
October 29th, 2017 at 3:03 pm
Screen pass
October 29th, 2017 at 3:03 pm
Trent Dilfer with a personality….
October 29th, 2017 at 3:03 pm
FreeFree 2.0
October 29th, 2017 at 3:03 pm
I wish he could just make decent decisions…
October 29th, 2017 at 3:03 pm
James Bradbury was a third round pick the year vh3 was our 1st round pick
October 29th, 2017 at 3:03 pm
Pass was not catchable.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:04 pm
Lol. This team is terrible.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:04 pm
All the sudden we start running and big ole 73 is putting a hurt on the panthers……probably too little too late. They took him out of the game plan in the first half and he misses a key back to end a drive.
This team is just poorly managed top to bottom
October 29th, 2017 at 3:04 pm
Run Quiz. Pfft. Never should that happen
October 29th, 2017 at 3:04 pm
YEAHHH…… we got 3 points !
October 29th, 2017 at 3:04 pm
We can’t blame the kicker this game!!
October 29th, 2017 at 3:05 pm
Heyyyyyyy! Points, well the FG kicker has been fixed so far!
October 29th, 2017 at 3:05 pm
Can’t even get inside the 20 yard line
October 29th, 2017 at 3:05 pm
Swanee – please stop using drugs.
What’s crazy is that your serious. Yah. He’s terrible.
4000 plus yards and 31 touchdowns. Please stop being a moron
October 29th, 2017 at 3:05 pm
Thank God for our new kicker Patrick Murray….best player on our roster right now!!!!…..who KEEPS THE GAME CLOSE!
Like I said last week!
October 29th, 2017 at 3:05 pm
At least our kicker comes through
October 29th, 2017 at 3:05 pm
If that wasn’t pass interference what is?
October 29th, 2017 at 3:06 pm
When you are playing against a good pass rushing team, we threw one screen pass to O.J. Howard, it worked, but we don’t use it again, even to the RBs, that’s play calling
October 29th, 2017 at 3:06 pm
Once again Dirk and the offense pucker up once they can see the end zone.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:06 pm
Any points is a positive
October 29th, 2017 at 3:06 pm
Kick-a$$ offense
October 29th, 2017 at 3:07 pm
COMr on let’s get this stop and move on
October 29th, 2017 at 3:07 pm
Glad Murray is kicking with confidence
October 29th, 2017 at 3:07 pm
Can’t score touchdowns. Won’t win with field goals.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:08 pm
We need a stop… now!
October 29th, 2017 at 3:09 pm
Why are you 10yards off of Ed Dickson
October 29th, 2017 at 3:09 pm
Nice drop for a loss!
October 29th, 2017 at 3:11 pm
Great job Ryan Smith!!!!
October 29th, 2017 at 3:11 pm
We need points on this drive.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:12 pm
Pathetic O line
October 29th, 2017 at 3:12 pm
what kind of play call was that coach K?
October 29th, 2017 at 3:13 pm
Vernon has had his best game as a pro….but i also see Mike smith has him closer to the line…And a Ryan Smith sighting
October 29th, 2017 at 3:13 pm
Nice play Ryan Smith!
October 29th, 2017 at 3:13 pm
Nice audibel aimless….
October 29th, 2017 at 3:13 pm
That had to hurt.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:14 pm
It is hard to believe we can’t take advantage of DJax more…
October 29th, 2017 at 3:14 pm
I guess I will head out and wash the windows on the outside of the house.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:14 pm
Somebody show our coaching staff to the ball store. They need to buy a few pairs of balls.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:15 pm
I’m starting to flucking hate Dirk and his whack azz plays
October 29th, 2017 at 3:15 pm
Come on defense, this is turnover territory.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:16 pm
You now see how mediocre JW is when the Defense that he is up against is not in “prevent D”.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:16 pm
Kirk freekin’ Cousins didn’t seem to have Any problems finding Djax…
October 29th, 2017 at 3:16 pm
Altered ego-
Best nickname yet
Pretty funny
October 29th, 2017 at 3:17 pm
@Wewantgruden…yup, I have to replace the headlights on my truck…trying to hang in there though since its close.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:17 pm
Koetter is so predictable. No surprises. Getting outcoached again.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:17 pm
Life of a Buc fan, can’t just give you a weekend off by just beating a team. Offense, defense, special teams, can we get a game of complimentary football.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:17 pm
Really have no idea as to why O.J. Is hardly getting any snaps today, but We have Humphries in there on every play.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:17 pm
Anybody see Winston trying to motivate his players on the sideline?
He does this every second half when we are behind. That’s when you usually see us start to look like a pro team. He’s doing what Dirk can’t do. We have talented players that come out unprepared to play against other teams that are motivated and ready to play.
It’s why we have scored 1 TD in the first half all season. It shouldn’t be Winston job to inspire this team every week.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:18 pm
This right here is how you lose your job.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:18 pm
Can we have the whole team show up for one f’ing game please?
October 29th, 2017 at 3:19 pm
Great stop!
October 29th, 2017 at 3:20 pm
OJ Howard
October 29th, 2017 at 3:21 pm
We can do this, C’mon guys!
October 29th, 2017 at 3:21 pm
Use oj Howard more
October 29th, 2017 at 3:21 pm
Why is Dirk not putting Fitz in. His stubbornness will cost him his head coaching job. Terrible hire by this GM. I like JW as a person but he is not consistent to continue to start. I understand it is not all his fault how pathetic the offense is but QB makes the biggest impact on any NFL team.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:23 pm
dougie got scaed lol
October 29th, 2017 at 3:24 pm
Jameis is going by to get Doug Martin killed
October 29th, 2017 at 3:24 pm
Ouch
October 29th, 2017 at 3:24 pm
The Raiders are getting slaughtered by the Bills and Carr is doing so much worse than Jameis did against them … the Raiders should trade Carr and Amari and let MadMax be their gm … HAHAHA … stupid
October 29th, 2017 at 3:24 pm
Another turnover by dum redneck JW
October 29th, 2017 at 3:25 pm
Ball game ladies. Can’t even pick up a blitz
October 29th, 2017 at 3:25 pm
Dotson getting rag dolled. Tank the season. Tank tank tank.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:25 pm
Hahahaha!!! He’s the worst!!!
October 29th, 2017 at 3:25 pm
Who’s fault, the fans of the Bucs for watching this
October 29th, 2017 at 3:25 pm
We are NEVER going to win with Winston
October 29th, 2017 at 3:26 pm
Season’s over…
October 29th, 2017 at 3:26 pm
That was a TD. Would have been a tie game if his arm doesn’t get hit.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:26 pm
The stupidity of this fan base is unreal. That pick is on the Oline. Dumbarses.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:26 pm
What an awesome offensive line.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:26 pm
Blocking? What blocking? Wonder if that was taught in camp
October 29th, 2017 at 3:26 pm
Atleast if we are going to tank have JW get his shoulder fixed and let Fitzfinish the season.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:26 pm
The more this game goes on the better the Panthers defensive front is getting. Dirk don’t know how to manage a game. He has just played right into their strength.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:26 pm
Well bucs fan it don’t look good right about now anythings possible but starting to lose hope
October 29th, 2017 at 3:27 pm
We want Gruden,
U obviously know nothing about Football. How in the hell was an unblocked dB Winston’s fault?
October 29th, 2017 at 3:27 pm
Y’all need to stop watching real football and go back to playing madden.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:27 pm
He can’t move the ball unless it is prevent D when the Bucs are way behind.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:27 pm
Aimless Winston…..Local media…ain’t nothing you can cover up now….same sheet he did in college….WTF kind of fungo pass was that ?
October 29th, 2017 at 3:27 pm
tank it !!! let JW heal that shoulder
October 29th, 2017 at 3:27 pm
If we can get Gruden a really good gm….
You can’t let him have any say in personnel
October 29th, 2017 at 3:27 pm
Hanging their heads. Walking off the field. Let;s go! Pick it up.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:27 pm
@mike the goat
I swear it’s like all these people are inbred simpletons.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:27 pm
Defense! Get the ball back!
October 29th, 2017 at 3:27 pm
Go get Urban. His heart problems have subsided.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:27 pm
We want Gruden.
You’re just hating on JW for no reason now.. oline not blocking is his fault now ? Lmfao..
October 29th, 2017 at 3:28 pm
Yucs football
October 29th, 2017 at 3:28 pm
Dumbest fans in the league right here @ JBF
October 29th, 2017 at 3:28 pm
Enough with the turnovers. At what point will Koetter say that Jameis isn’t cutting it for whatever reason (hurt shoulder, limited practice) and switch to Fitz to give us even a small chance of coming back?
October 29th, 2017 at 3:28 pm
I agree with prior responses. Put Fitz in, JW gets surgery and get that high pick. This team is garbage. Let’s not kid ourselves
October 29th, 2017 at 3:28 pm
Get JW out, his injury is a detriment to this offense right now.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:28 pm
All these weapons.
Defense actually playing ok.
3 f**king points.
Den of Depression.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:28 pm
AlteredEgo … how ‘s FSU been since Jameis left? GARBAGE …
October 29th, 2017 at 3:28 pm
Godwin had his man beat by 10 yards for a TD.
James wanted to stare him down longer cause that’s what he does.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:29 pm
Cam
October 29th, 2017 at 3:29 pm
I can’t wait to see the post game press conference. Same old words, we got to get better I got to get better. JW is too ignorant to be a NFL QB. 27 on his Wonderlic. Nuff said

@alterego
Kill yourself you brain dead slack jaw mouth breather. You know nothing about football.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:29 pm
Blake…..Of course Dotson is gonna get ragdolled if you drop back this many times………Dirk was in the film room most likely when you the eagles were on national TV writing a basic book on how to take it to the Panthers.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:29 pm
So, again, we’re picking top 5-7…what positions?
DE?
RB?
CB?
Im sticking with DE and CB first 2 picks…..unless RB Barkley falls to us. (Id have to go for that one) He’s going top 3 or 4.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:30 pm
This games over. They’ll at least make the field goal and there’s no way we get 10 (let alone 7) points in 9 minutes.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:30 pm
Boy, did Evans get beat or what?
October 29th, 2017 at 3:30 pm
Who’s out there for GM and head coach?
October 29th, 2017 at 3:30 pm
In what universe is that not a push off.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:31 pm
It’s over!
October 29th, 2017 at 3:31 pm
There’s the dagger. This team is awful. Getting what they deserve.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:31 pm
That was on Ryan Smith
October 29th, 2017 at 3:31 pm
We are a bad football team. We’re not playing like a bad team, we ARE one. Such a disappointment.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:31 pm
Season over.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:32 pm
Ok max. You were right and I was wrong. I took my blinders off at halftime
October 29th, 2017 at 3:32 pm
Time for Gruden!!!!!!!
October 29th, 2017 at 3:32 pm
That’s all folks
October 29th, 2017 at 3:32 pm
That’s the dagger
October 29th, 2017 at 3:32 pm
pathetic
October 29th, 2017 at 3:32 pm
Wake up Tampa Ba Winston is the problem. Dumb as hell. No brains and lots of fake hype no substance.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:32 pm
This team isn’t gutless.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:32 pm
If they were going to score a TD… they could have at least thrown it to Funchess so I could have gotten some points.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:32 pm
This team is done. Draft talk begins in Oct yet again
October 29th, 2017 at 3:32 pm
Stick a fork in us, this season is over!
October 29th, 2017 at 3:33 pm
Is gutless. (Autocorrect)
October 29th, 2017 at 3:33 pm
Evans there to make a play his ball skills on that play??? i dunno what i was looking at
October 29th, 2017 at 3:33 pm
This team has multiple personality disorder from game to game.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:33 pm
NOW CAN WE ALL PLEASE JUST AGREE THIS SEASON IS OVER??
5-11. LOOKING AT SCHEDULE PROB 4-12.
AGREED??
October 29th, 2017 at 3:33 pm
#BringBackGruden
October 29th, 2017 at 3:33 pm
Winston really is the problem with this team…well, one of them.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:33 pm
Weapons for Fitz time
October 29th, 2017 at 3:34 pm
@max
It has to be DE or OL with our top 5 pick. Let Winston get his shoulder surgery this week. We don’t need him missing all of training camp with our new coaches and new Offense.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:34 pm
Was that GMC’s or Douggies blown coverage?
October 29th, 2017 at 3:34 pm
On a 3rd and 16 lol
October 29th, 2017 at 3:34 pm
Its all good jimmy….im not a hater, just calling it as i see it.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:34 pm
3 and 16 TD. So pathetic. Bad coverage. No fire. GMC looked annoyed that he had to make a tackle. Offense is so conservative, I can’t take it, where is the skyline bridge. J/k. Who am I fooling I’ll still sit here and Watch of these games and let this team continue to disappoint me.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:34 pm
See ya later Jason Licht, nice try!
October 29th, 2017 at 3:34 pm
Bet Koetter was not on the Aimless Winston draft pick….until the pick was given to him as OC….
October 29th, 2017 at 3:34 pm
Defense came to play…cbs playing up close have tight coverage…. Offense can’t execute… Winston off today… We in trouble….GO BUCS!!!
October 29th, 2017 at 3:35 pm
I thought a successful season would have been 10-6 one game better than last year but in typical fashion we regressed. Even with a 3 game win streak we would be 5-5 not good enough.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:35 pm
Buccs for Barkley
October 29th, 2017 at 3:35 pm
yall really thought this game was do or die? the season was over after the pats game. yall silly
October 29th, 2017 at 3:35 pm
I guess they need more weapons for Winston.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:36 pm
I have been a bucs fan for 25 years, seen a lot of ugly football. I’ve never felt like turning my back more on this team then I do now. I will send all my bucs gear back to the team. I’m embarrassed to be a bucs fan, never again! DIRK / SMITH are the worst coaches we ever had
October 29th, 2017 at 3:36 pm
Can we do that play where we just keep pitching back?
October 29th, 2017 at 3:36 pm
Finally Winston hit someone in stride.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:37 pm
We must lead the league in FAC. Falling after the catch.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:37 pm
Nice holding Donovan.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:37 pm
Keeping holding boys. Buc coaches don’t have a problem with it.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:37 pm
This offense only works against the prevent defense.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:37 pm
This offensive line sucks. Penalties killing us.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:37 pm
I wonder what Vegas saw in the team to have them 2.5 points favorite.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:37 pm
What the f is wrong with 76
October 29th, 2017 at 3:38 pm
FAC. Hilarious MIke Evans could coach the fall after the catch.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:39 pm
When are these coaches going to get the message about the refs? Bucs Pull ahead and this nonsense will stop.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:39 pm
“Licht’s Out….uh huh…trash trash trash!”
October 29th, 2017 at 3:39 pm
So Koetter’s second year and a major regression in very phase of his team.
Tampa fans have been conned every year that there is going to be change of fortune yet it’s the same crap. With season on the line, playing at home against a Panther team doing nothing special, you fall behind 14 points with 8 minutes left, you are just giving your fans no hope.
We deserve a decent product not more garbage football.
It’s a Bucs life!
NFL is a league of parity but organization is in loser mode for 10 years now!
October 29th, 2017 at 3:39 pm
It’s like he throws at them instead of to them.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:40 pm
Booooooooooooo
October 29th, 2017 at 3:40 pm
Good job, Winston! ………
October 29th, 2017 at 3:40 pm
#3 overthrow and then the INT in the gut of the LB….bring back Dilfer!
October 29th, 2017 at 3:41 pm
Great route by Kuechly there, and JW3 hit him in stride…
October 29th, 2017 at 3:41 pm
HahahahahahahhahahhhhhhHhhhh. LMAO
October 29th, 2017 at 3:41 pm
Welp! Wtf do I know?
October 29th, 2017 at 3:41 pm
Still no pass rush but dbs played well overall…. Evans still got work to do…. Good to see Smitty make an adjustment with the cbs…. Wish that #1 passing offense would’ve showed up… Really could’ve used that today…GO BUCS!!!
October 29th, 2017 at 3:41 pm
2-5 start rating that draft board
October 29th, 2017 at 3:41 pm
Miss Evans but not Kuechly, is he that good or we just making him look that good
October 29th, 2017 at 3:41 pm
I’m done with this team….for this week. This is ridiculous
October 29th, 2017 at 3:42 pm
#brainsforwinston
Put in Fitz
October 29th, 2017 at 3:42 pm
WTF they will blame it on not throwing in practice.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:42 pm
SMH I’m signing off
October 29th, 2017 at 3:42 pm
America’s QB sure pads the stats for defending teams with sacks and picks. He is definitely is not improving.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:42 pm
Jamies is playing hurt. Sit him down.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:42 pm
TRADE JAMEIS WINSTON AND MIKE EVANS BEFORE THOSE MUILTI MILLION DOLLAR CONTRACTS COME DUE…..JUST DO IT!!!!!!!!!!!!
October 29th, 2017 at 3:42 pm
PUT jameis on the titans and they are 1-6
October 29th, 2017 at 3:42 pm
Don’t worry guys our offensive passing yards are on cue. Tampas Man crush on Dirk will surely stay alive when this year ends because I’m sure the Glazers are judging his ability to coach in this league based on that.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:42 pm
But, But, but…hes a gunslinger… look at the yards he racks up!
In garbage time…
October 29th, 2017 at 3:42 pm
Who u gonna blame this week?
October 29th, 2017 at 3:42 pm
Lol
October 29th, 2017 at 3:42 pm
Jon Gruden
Jimbo Fisher
Matt Patricia
Jim Schwartz
Kris Richard
In that order
October 29th, 2017 at 3:43 pm
Give me a G!!!!!! Give me a R. Give me a U. Give me a D. Give me an E. Give me a N.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:43 pm
Koetter just lost this game. I love my team. We fans should have always owned this team. Go Bucs!!
October 29th, 2017 at 3:43 pm
Wake me up in September. Screw the draft, it doesn’t matter who we have on this team. Garbage organization. Totally unwatchable.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:43 pm
Trade D jacks and TJ wards for more draft picks
October 29th, 2017 at 3:43 pm
Season Over!
October 29th, 2017 at 3:43 pm
Aimless…….never could…never will….and the future of the NFL is mobile….accurate QB’s….folks I’ve them all…..Jameis is fatally flawed as a passer
October 29th, 2017 at 3:43 pm
Listening on line from the uk. From the noise made by the crowd you’d think it was a home game for the Panthers.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:43 pm
Remember, Tampa passed on Luke Kuechley, he was there when we picked
October 29th, 2017 at 3:43 pm
Tanking is ok but please dont let Licht draft again. dnt like GM or Koetter. Would be happy to get fid of both. wish Glazers would pull trigger now and not make us suffer the rest of the season.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:43 pm
Winston was bad today…. Simple as that….GO BUCS!!!
October 29th, 2017 at 3:43 pm
************************
Jameis’ INT % is higher than Dak’s now … it was actually lower and he had a higher comp % than Dak on the season coming into this game … it’s been reported that Jameis actually has a partial TEAR in his shoulder and surgery has been recommended but he’s playing through it … I DO NOT WANT TO SEE HIM TURN INTO ANOTHER ANDREW LUCK THOUGH
*************************
October 29th, 2017 at 3:43 pm
We should have drafted Mariota.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:44 pm
And the excuses will continue.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:44 pm
Our defense sucks
October 29th, 2017 at 3:44 pm
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA SAME OLD BUCS FULL OF 1st AND 2nd ROUNDERS ON BOTH SIDES OF THE BALL AND STILL GARBAGE YEAR AFTER YEAR LMAO GREAT ROUTE LUKE PERFECT THROW HAHAHAHAHA
October 29th, 2017 at 3:44 pm
Ok NOW the season is over. What a joke. These guys don’t care.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:44 pm
MARIOTA SUCKS … LESS THEAN 100 YARDS PASSING IN MULTIPLE GAMES IN HIS CAREER AND JUST TWO … ************* TWO ************ NON-SCREEN TD PASSES THIS ENTIRE YEAR … YOU (Bucs14) SIR ARE A VERIFIABLE LOON!
October 29th, 2017 at 3:44 pm
Nobody on this coaching staff can be defended anymore
October 29th, 2017 at 3:45 pm
It really sucks, to have a football team that sucks
October 29th, 2017 at 3:45 pm
Was that INT the OL’s fault too?
October 29th, 2017 at 3:45 pm
F****ing JW sir him down. Sorry you FSU homers he will never be accurate. You won a national championship becasue your defense was amazing and Dalvin Cook was a man beast. Just admit that your “America’s Quarterback” is garbage. You cried for weapons we got you weapons. Then what does he do nothing. The blaming Koetter is a joke when the QB is the one who throws the ball and makes the decisions. You can say it’s Koetters playing calling but how would we know if we don’t put in someone else. If it fails after another QB is in then I understand but da*m Winston is our problem right now.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:45 pm
franchise QB my ass over throws a TD then a pick short of the 1st down if winston dont start learnin he’ll be freeman in no time
October 29th, 2017 at 3:46 pm
Bucs 14
Get back on your short bus
October 29th, 2017 at 3:46 pm
Keep over throwing JW, And now another interception. Well, sorry Fitz you deserved to be in there today . But you have a gutless coach who won’t make a decision and it shows he does not coach to win. JW is going to have to go at this point.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:46 pm
From where I was sitting in the stadium, Mike and djax look like they’ve had enough… Mike dropped some passes but Winston was off all game….GO BUCS!!!!
October 29th, 2017 at 3:46 pm
If I wad a travel agent in Tampa, I’d be calling Bucs players to schedule their vacations…
October 29th, 2017 at 3:46 pm
So funny that it’s koetter s fault. It’s lights fault. Guys Jameis seems to be a great kid. I was surprised. Great leader
I want my qb to win games and he plays one good game then has 3 bad ones. Who cares about stats but the joes. He gets those mainly in prevent time anyway.
He is still young but this is year 3 and this is not good enough. Any good qb would put of filthy numbers with all these weapons
October 29th, 2017 at 3:47 pm
Welcome to the den of depression…..Dillly Dilly. Cheers to everyone who touted this piss poor offense as a top unit in the league. For the rest of this dismal season please keep this fantasy to yourself.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:47 pm
How many times is Jameis gonna overthrow the open WR? My God!! I’m done. I NEVER THOUGHT I WOULD SAY THIS, BUT IF HE CONTINUES TO MISS WIDE OPEN RECEIVERS, PUT IN FITZPATRICK. WE SHOULD HAVE TDS FROM JACKSON AND EVANS TODAY FROM OPEN MISSES, AND HE MISSED HUMP WIDE OPEN ON A CROSSING ROUTE AT THE TWENTY. HE HAS TURNED THE BALL OVER IN FIELD GOAL RANGE TWICE TODAY AND CANNOT HIT THE BACKSIDE OF A BARN. CONGRATS JABOO!! YOU ARE NOW LOSING THOSE THAT HAVE SUPPORTED YOU ALL ALONG!! 2 DASH 5!! GO YUCS!!!
October 29th, 2017 at 3:47 pm
We suck I’m done piss on this team they would rather save money then win good job guys must say let’s blow it up and start over! That’s the way it is as buc
October 29th, 2017 at 3:47 pm
My only question is how can anyone that calls them self a fan post lmaf on this thread? You are no fan.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:47 pm
dead on 1856
October 29th, 2017 at 3:47 pm
So Rivera wasn’t going to challenge so the clock wouldn’t stop. So we call a timeout so he can challenge.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:48 pm
WOW !!! Luke Kuelky was chug’n instant med’s after he took himself out of the game….that was a”special” cup….Panama Lewis style
October 29th, 2017 at 3:48 pm
It’s time to give someone else a shot at this team. Licht hasn’t drafted a pass rush and it’s killing us. Koetter hasn’t developed Winston one iota. I agree Winston has to play better period. His shoulder is bothering him but I just wanna see someone else get a shot at developing the best statistical young QB in a generation. Minor tweaks do the trick. But Koetter has failed this team licht has failed this team and it’s time to turn the page. Yes licht has drafted some players and missed on many picks simple as that. This fan base wants Chucky back. Make it happen. He’s been watching for years and guaranteed no what works
October 29th, 2017 at 3:48 pm
Jameis: 18 of 33 with two Pics and a fumble. He will probably save his day by scoring a TD while the Panthers are in prevent D
October 29th, 2017 at 3:48 pm
Only the Bucs would call time out and allow the other team to challenge the spot, even if it is not a first down I wouldn’t be surprised if Panthers go for it
October 29th, 2017 at 3:48 pm
**************
BUCS1856 …. the Noles have been garbage since Jameis left … and … DALVIN COOK WASN’T EVEN ON THE TEAM WHEN JAMEIS LED THEM TO THE TITLE … IDIOT!
**************
October 29th, 2017 at 3:48 pm
Lot of idiots on this site. Jameis had two red zone first downs called back by holding calls and resulting in 1st and 20’s. you can’t win in this league that way. They are called penalties for a reason.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:48 pm
Bucs1856
U sound slow
Dalvin was a non factor that season as we had freeman, so explain how EJ Manuel didn’t win a championship with the same team?
October 29th, 2017 at 3:48 pm
The person that said jameis finally hit someone in stride on that pick was the comment of the day
October 29th, 2017 at 3:49 pm
Somehow the Joes on here will blame Doug Martin for this loss
October 29th, 2017 at 3:49 pm
Winston is 100% without a doubt regressing this season.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:49 pm
TRADE FREEFREE 2.0!!!!!!!!!!!
October 29th, 2017 at 3:50 pm
NFL nut…. Mariota is much better then JW. Are kidding?
October 29th, 2017 at 3:50 pm
****************
Like I said above … BRUCE ARIANS HAS A MANCRUSH ON JAMEIS WINSTON AND HE HELPED LUCK (who turns the ball over a ton) and even turned old man Carson Palmer into a borderline MVP candidate … and word is he’s not return to the Cardinals … I LOVE BRUCE ARIANS!
****************
October 29th, 2017 at 3:50 pm
The sad thing is I’m going to New Orleans to watch the game next week
October 29th, 2017 at 3:51 pm
Y’all can keep defending his terrible play all you want but it isn’t going to change reality. Doesn’t look anything like a franchise QB right now.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:51 pm
😢
October 29th, 2017 at 3:51 pm
Winston was not worthy of #1 pick.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:52 pm
How many sacks is that?
October 29th, 2017 at 3:52 pm
Not even competitive in front of home crowd. Winston isn’t the QB Joe says he is. The franchise has to be led by him and he has to carry the team but he isn’t up to it.
Will Joe admit,that JW isn’t clutch
October 29th, 2017 at 3:52 pm
2-5! Fire someone tonight! We aren’t bad we are horrific
October 29th, 2017 at 3:52 pm
1856… That was dovonte Freeman but I hear you…. We 0-8 when Winston throw 40 times or more…. Last I looked he had 35atts….GO BUCS!!!
October 29th, 2017 at 3:53 pm
You guys can call Winston what you want but he was good in the first half. Unprepared players around him were caught dropping balls, missing blocks and committing penalties.
Your not gonna drop back Winston all day against nasty defences in this league and expect him to do all the work. Carolinas Dline destroyed us today. Philly wrote a perfect game script on how to handle this team…….Dirk didn’t listen and stubbornly came out with the same tired script that’s been failing us all season. This team comes out unprepared every dam week and I really had a hope Dirk would feel the pressure and have his team NFL ready. Too much talent for this team to play deflated football and Winston be the culprit
October 29th, 2017 at 3:53 pm
Draft a new QB 1st round 2018…..let it sort itself out….
October 29th, 2017 at 3:53 pm
Uzbekistan’s quarterback.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:53 pm
Ndog, who says anything about being a fan. Most of us are stating the facts. A Poorly coached with little true NFL talent Bucs team.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:53 pm
Jameis has got to wash his hands after eating that greasy fried chicken.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:53 pm
Debacle
October 29th, 2017 at 3:53 pm
Jameis may have all the heart in the world, but ask any coach if you can improve the accuracy of a QB. Freeman had all the intangibles, but he was so inaccurate too. You can’t teach a QB to be accurate in the NFL.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:53 pm
Dam
October 29th, 2017 at 3:54 pm
What the hell was THAT?
October 29th, 2017 at 3:54 pm
Mr. Licht do you see now why you build a teams defense first?
October 29th, 2017 at 3:54 pm
Embarrassing, shameful performance.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:54 pm
SWANEE … Mariota SUCKS … he’s a gimmick QB … Tennessee is all about the run and him throwing to wide-open guys off play action and even with that his comp % is low, his INT rate was higher than JW’s coming into this game, he’s one of the lowest rated RZ QBs in the NFL and he has thrown **** TWO *** non-screen TD passes ALL YEAR LONG … I’ve go Titans fan friends that want the team to draft a new QB … HE SUCKS
October 29th, 2017 at 3:55 pm
Screw you #WeaponsforWinston
October 29th, 2017 at 3:55 pm
What? Thus is will go on and on and on….maybe new ownership?
But WHO are they going to draft that will make this team even marginally better next season?
October 29th, 2017 at 3:55 pm
America’s QB= 3 f’n points
October 29th, 2017 at 3:55 pm
Let me guess……… My shoulder was hurting
October 29th, 2017 at 3:56 pm
Glazers need to rethink this whole ownership thing glad your making money while we suffer!
October 29th, 2017 at 3:56 pm
Nice stat 813…….. I bet that win % is on par with any team that plays Carolina and with as many deep drop backs as we showed them today
October 29th, 2017 at 3:57 pm
Gruden! Gruden! Gruden!
October 29th, 2017 at 3:57 pm
This is a coaching failure. Top to bottom. The entire staff is rotten.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:57 pm
Time to start looking for other possible answers at QB along with coaching.
Its a shame because as a leader he is the best you could possibly find. Sadly accuracy/decision making are probably the most important things a franchise QB needs. Winston lacks them both.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:57 pm
Season is over.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:58 pm
tank the season. Draft Barkley. Get a new left tackle. Move Smith to Right tackle, and draft all Dline and Corners.
October 29th, 2017 at 3:58 pm
Thanks Mr. Murray for your effort!!!! Well Done Sir!!!!
The only one playing good right now!!!!
October 29th, 2017 at 3:58 pm
Stop blame the Head coach,he’s not out there throwing Int. It’s the lame ass Qb, the team drafted #1 over all three years ago! GMC,DeSean,and there are more players that are a waste of money,some changes need to be made with these over paid player’s!!
P.s Bucs fans the season is over and it’s only week 8..
October 29th, 2017 at 3:58 pm
Maybe move Winston to head cheerleader
October 29th, 2017 at 3:58 pm
Joe. Don’t wait until the end of the game this week…shut this board down now!
October 29th, 2017 at 3:58 pm
Winston is more worried about his iron man status then the win
October 29th, 2017 at 3:59 pm
Winston sucks
October 29th, 2017 at 3:59 pm
Anybody remember last year when Quiz ran all over Carolina? We got the same basic Oline vs their same basic Dline.
What happened to that game plan? And why exactaly did we change it? I’d love to hear the answer to that Q if any Tampa reporter had the stones to ask it
October 29th, 2017 at 3:59 pm
I take that back, Mr. Anger….also playing good!
October 29th, 2017 at 4:00 pm
Gators fired Jim! Bucs please fire this joke of a freaking coach! I’ve been the voice of an idiot all year, we suck
