Buccaneers-Jets, Open Thread
November 12th, 2017Comment throughout this afternoon’s Buccaneers-Jets game with intense, wild and usually reasoned Bucs fans. Great fun!
Direct all personal attacks at Josh McCown, Austin Seferian-Jackwagon and Jets players and coaches, not each other (Joe’s filters are tuned up for the haters.)

Go Bucs!!!!
November 12th, 2017 at 11:26 am
Oh boy. Here we go
November 12th, 2017 at 11:29 am
I can’t wait to be frustrated for three hours!!! Woo-hoo!!! Go Bucs!!!!
November 12th, 2017 at 11:30 am
Which Buc team is showing up today !
November 12th, 2017 at 11:35 am
Let’s go!! We made the switch! The switch 2 Fitz!!! Now it’s time to beat up on McClown and jackwagon!! Let’s go Bucs!!
November 12th, 2017 at 11:35 am
Reporters on channel 10 just said that they talked to most of the players, and they all have confidence in Koetter. That sort of flies in the face of what many here are saying.
He hasn’t lost the team at all.
November 12th, 2017 at 11:39 am
That’s too bad Bonzai. Because he’s leading the team to nowhere. Doesn’t even have the common sense to dismiss Mike Smith
November 12th, 2017 at 11:40 am
I’m hoping for a win today. Fitz has some familiarity with the Jets. Maybe enough to make them predictable to some extent.
I’m not worried about Mike Evans being out…truth is we have great depth at WR. Godwin will get a chance to shine at last.
Don’t get me wrong, I think we’re better with Evans…but thankfully we have the depth we need.
Now, I hope when Winston returns he doesn’t zero in on DJax so much. I think the pressure to connect with him made him predictable. HE was trying to get the timing down and so was staring done DJax too much. When he comes back, he needs to stop worrying about DJax and go with the proven WR. Mike Evans.
Because when he started trying to connect with Jackson, the losing started.
Also…I hope to see some no huddle today. That was Koetter’s specialty in Atlanta, and it worked. IT wasn’t until he got away from it that things went bad. It’s also why the hurry-up works so well with Jameis.
November 12th, 2017 at 11:41 am
Joe… we’re losing guys on here… comments are down… wins are down… stories are dull and annoying to read about… we need a win about as bad as Florida needs cooler weather.

“That’s too bad Bonzai. Because he’s leading the team to nowhere. Doesn’t even have the common sense to dismiss Mike Smith”
First off, you are wrong about where he is leading the team. And secondly, its Jason Licht’s job to fire Smith. And that won’t happen any time soon.
The truth of the matter is you are wrong about both Smith and Koetter.
November 12th, 2017 at 11:43 am
Huge fan of koetter but he is dead man walking. SO is gruden s youngest son a senior in high school?
Have a lot to do when he may come back?
November 12th, 2017 at 11:44 am

“…we’re losing guys on here… comments are down… wins are down… stories are dull and annoying to read about…”
I have not been coming as much, to speak for myself. Too many negative articles. And I scoff at the whole Stick Carrier movement, because they turned on the team as quick as anyone else.
Tampa has some good, dedicated fans…but they are few and far between. Most are extreme bandwagon or fair weather fans.

#KeepSmith
#KeepLicht
#ForgetGruden
November 12th, 2017 at 11:49 am
I defînitely feel like some players have checked out. Did you expect them to tell the reporters that he has no idea what he’s doing and we are just here to collect a cheque?
November 12th, 2017 at 11:50 am
My Predictions for today:
Bucs win in a close game.
Defense gets 4 or more sacks.
Fitz throws 2 picks.
ASJ scores once.
McCown throws two picks…maybe three.
November 12th, 2017 at 11:51 am
Nice pic Joe!
November 12th, 2017 at 11:52 am
I’m wrong about Smith and koetter. While I tend to agree with you Bonzai you defend every regime we have and accept losing. It is not a matter of fact or fiction it is opinion and how I feel about koetter and Mike Smith is well in the majority
November 12th, 2017 at 11:55 am
It’s starting to look like McCown was another victim of the dysfunctional Buccaneers or the Florida chem-trails. Look for him to set the record straight today as he shreds the Bucs at the DoD.
November 12th, 2017 at 11:56 am
Seeing as McCown grew up only a couple hours from me I’ve always pulled for East Texas guys to be successful. I just hope we can be competitive today
November 12th, 2017 at 11:57 am
@Broy34WantsGruden
I didn’t defend Lovie. I just felt that Licht should have been as accountable as Lovie was held. Licht got zero blame is all that.
I defended Schiano because things went wrong that were out of his control (like MRSA).
I was completely against Raheem.
And with Gruden, I had said he should be fired unless he finally had back to back winning seasons…which he did at the end and still got fired.
You act as though it is wrong to support the staff. Newsflash…they are a part of the team as well. Rooting for a team means rooting for the whole team, not just certain parts.
We should be hoping that each part of the team does well…instead of rooting against them.
November 12th, 2017 at 11:58 am
@Howard Cosell
McCown has had other seasons since leaving here, and all but this year sucked for him.
November 12th, 2017 at 11:58 am
I hope you’re right Bonzai. But a realist once said, without arguably the best WR on the field, combined with a horrible rush attack and 8 sacks in 8 games… it’s hard to say they can pull off a win, and quite frankly even harder to be optimistic at this point in the season.
November 12th, 2017 at 11:59 am
Man I gotta give the Bucs credit for one thing. They’re so inconsistent that they’ve become totally unpredicatable.
I think we all can easily imagine…another blow out loss…or a blow out win…who knows which team will show up…add in the Jets and this is an impossible game to really handicap.
November 12th, 2017 at 11:59 am
If we win this game today with Fitz, I shudder to hear the “QB controversy” talk around the Nation
November 12th, 2017 at 12:00 pm
So you were against the only coach who had a winning season between Lovie Raheem and Schiano combined. Interesting how that works Bonzai
November 12th, 2017 at 12:00 pm
It would be fitting for a McCown to ASJ td with 30 seconds to go to give the Jets a 1 point victory. Loss #400
November 12th, 2017 at 12:01 pm
Jets are fired up to play the game. Buc are fired up to leave the stadium and go home (or go party). Look for a blowout of the BUcs with the stands full of green.
J-E-T-S !!!
November 12th, 2017 at 12:11 pm
If Koetter still “has” the locker room lol, the Bucs better win or their coach’s grave just gets deeper. I don’t think the players really care that much for Koetter or the rest of the coaching staff because if they did, we wouldn’t be 2 and freaking 6. I’m still pissed off how bad the Bucs are this year. I’m tired of the latest excuses too.
It was our kicker’s fault.
The human ATM, America’s turnover machine, Jameis Winston, gave it away again.
No blocking
No pass rush
Stupid penalties
Inability to stop the other team on third down
No rushing game
Predictable playcalling both sides of the ball
Apathy (players just cashing their paychecks and aren’t trying enough)
Special teams mistakes
Dropped picks
Flu bug hit team
Someone said something nasty to Jameis and we had to pick a fight with them and got suspended and fined
We were outcoached
We were outsmarted
We were outplayed
We were outhustled
You get the point… The Buc apologists love making excuses. Time to put up or STFU and win a blinking game! Go Bucs!
November 12th, 2017 at 12:26 pm
Is Kevin Greeene maybe a DC option? Done good things as a LB coach
November 12th, 2017 at 12:27 pm
We need to hire a 3-4 based defensive coach to utilize our LBs.
November 12th, 2017 at 12:30 pm
@Bonzai. I’m not against you. I’ve said for a couple weeks now that the best thing for the organization would be for Koetter to work out. Obviously it would be best for Mike Smith to work out too even if I’m not his biggest fan. The truth of the matter is that if we go say 7-9 or 8-8 then that shows Koetter has not lost the team and the staff will likely remain in place. I’m skeptical that we will be able to accomplish a winning record in the 2nd half of the season. All Koetter and company can do is take it one game at a time. The first game is a very winnable game against an average at best Jets squad. The Jets are a run first team and there will be plenty of Bilal Powell. Kwon will be the x factor. If he looks like Kwon of yesteryear then we have a good chance.
November 12th, 2017 at 12:31 pm
Go Bucs!!! I want this win. Just because of McClown and A$$Jackhole!!!
Thanks God theres no JW3 retarded antics today!!!

Ok. So do we win or does the not trying , commie, cop and usa hating players. Take knees and stay on ground again, seems like no coach could take these malcontents. Any where , maybe. They need safe space to play with crayons and puppys?
November 12th, 2017 at 12:37 pm
I will bet he doesn’t cry in Ny
November 12th, 2017 at 12:39 pm
Overcome with excitement.
November 12th, 2017 at 12:40 pm
Jets gonna blow us out. The freaking tanking jets
November 12th, 2017 at 12:42 pm
how quickly will cancer93 quit today… you know 93 is pulling for his fellow good guy loser McClown over his own teammates.

He better at least get a sack today.

C’mon BUCS! Bring us some excitement already. PLAY HARD!
November 12th, 2017 at 1:01 pm
Let the flogging begin.
November 12th, 2017 at 1:01 pm
Good afternoon true believers…
November 12th, 2017 at 1:03 pm
Josh McCown vs Ryan Fitzpatrick
Is this the Arena League
Or the Senior Bowl
NFL has hit rock bottom
November 12th, 2017 at 1:05 pm
Wow lots of empty seats
November 12th, 2017 at 1:05 pm
Big Ben has threw a pick already…smh
November 12th, 2017 at 1:06 pm
Things have gotten so bad, they’re not even airing the game in my area.
November 12th, 2017 at 1:06 pm
911 – by halftime they’ll be full, mostly NY fans I’d bet.
November 12th, 2017 at 1:06 pm
Game not even televised here in Orlando wtf
November 12th, 2017 at 1:07 pm
People has figured it out
Bucs are not worthy of paying to see
They sucks
November 12th, 2017 at 1:07 pm
Lakeland- The pick on Big Ben was a super athletic play by the CB.
November 12th, 2017 at 1:11 pm
Tennessee has fired Butch Jones
November 12th, 2017 at 1:12 pm
Just think if the game ended now it wouldn’t be a “L”.
November 12th, 2017 at 1:12 pm
The bucs should throw any stretch or pitch plays out of the playbook. IT NEVER WORKS.
November 12th, 2017 at 1:12 pm
donovan smith is plain garbage
November 12th, 2017 at 1:14 pm
Koetter never finished the preseason mentally. These are preseason playcalls. Have some gonads for once Dirk and go for it.
November 12th, 2017 at 1:15 pm
run run pass punt omg
November 12th, 2017 at 1:16 pm
It isn’t just Koetter’s inability to innovate the Xs and Os, it’s the he has 0 ability to inspire anyone. Instead of winning Coach Koetter, I’m going to call him “Ho-Hum” coach Koetter.
November 12th, 2017 at 1:18 pm
Beckwith and his passion…love the kid!
November 12th, 2017 at 1:18 pm
Why trying to run to outside with martin. We tried that all last week and were minus 30 yards
November 12th, 2017 at 1:18 pm
That was a beautiful 60 yard bomb from Case Keenum to Stefon Diggs, beating Josh Norman.
November 12th, 2017 at 1:19 pm
Hey, were still in the game!
November 12th, 2017 at 1:20 pm
Klueless Koetter the Klown is….
Konsistent
Get this guy out of here
November 12th, 2017 at 1:23 pm
How far has Rudy fallen. Wow. Drops it when it hits him in bread basket.
November 12th, 2017 at 1:26 pm
Nice to see a quarterback with accuracy….been a long time.
November 12th, 2017 at 1:26 pm
Desean seems lost half the time when he goes deep. Turns the wrong way, doesn’t find the ball. Perfect throw Fitz
November 12th, 2017 at 1:26 pm
Two positive runs for #22 to the left.
November 12th, 2017 at 1:26 pm
Fitz has something going here. Jameis can/should learn few things from this drive.
November 12th, 2017 at 1:27 pm
Godwin looking good so far
November 12th, 2017 at 1:28 pm
Can the Bucs get a first Q TD with Fitz leading the charge???
November 12th, 2017 at 1:28 pm
Cmurda you’re right, that pass to DJax deep was on the money, DJax just expects to make no adjustments to the pass it seems and just wants it within a 6cm radius of his palms.
November 12th, 2017 at 1:29 pm
Nice to see 3rd down conversions!!
Fitz!!!!
I don’t miss Jameis..lol..
November 12th, 2017 at 1:29 pm
I already see the team playing like they have a chance to win. Running game looks better already. Maybe it’s because they actually respect the passing game and don’t crowd the box.
November 12th, 2017 at 1:29 pm
@Bonzai
Can you really be so Naive?
It matters very little what the players say verbally. Their play on the field speaks much louder.
Never in my life seen so many blank stares into oblivion on the sideline from both players and coaches than I have this season.
Koetter has absolutely lost this team. And as much as I like the guy, he’s gotta go. He is simply in over his head.
November 12th, 2017 at 1:30 pm
Fitz is doing his best to overcome the patheticness of our O Line.
November 12th, 2017 at 1:31 pm
Where’s Peyton Barber?? Let’s get him in on this first half!!
November 12th, 2017 at 1:31 pm
Accuracy.
November 12th, 2017 at 1:31 pm
Line continues to cause penalties. Discipline these players Coach K. I mean really!!!! Sit them….
November 12th, 2017 at 1:32 pm
Great drive
Need drives
November 12th, 2017 at 1:32 pm
No. The penalty on Sweezy is unforgivable. Fitz showing some live game rust.
November 12th, 2017 at 1:32 pm
ABSOLUTELY PATHETIC EFFORT FROM SMITH THERE!
Put him on the bench.
November 12th, 2017 at 1:33 pm
Lets see, lets do something different. Run Martin
run martin
3rd and 10 lets pass
next lets punt
Much better the 2nd time with the ball.
you can keep molasses aka JW on the bench
November 12th, 2017 at 1:34 pm
Wow! A lot of fans went to the game dressed as empty seats.
November 12th, 2017 at 1:34 pm
Just watch how much better the Defense will look after watching the Offense march down the field just now. Momentum begets momentum. The shoulder injury and M13’s suspension may be exactly what this team needed. Taking focus off of the divas of the team is a good look. And I’m a HUGE Jameis fan.
November 12th, 2017 at 1:35 pm
What happened to jw being the problem? It sure looks the same
November 12th, 2017 at 1:35 pm
Every time they’re in red zone , the OLine gets some sort of penalty Amazing
November 12th, 2017 at 1:35 pm
Line cost us 7 points. Another field goal , will not win games. Good job Fitz, sorry for the pathetic undisciplined offensive line.
November 12th, 2017 at 1:37 pm
Lamarcus..we are actually seeing passes being thrown and passes being caught..
November 12th, 2017 at 1:37 pm
Fitz moved the team beautifully down the field. Penalty on Sweezy & questionable play-calling by Koetter in the Red zone (Run-Run-Pass-Kick) doomed them to a FG. At least he’s using DJax better today.
November 12th, 2017 at 1:38 pm
Were given them 5yds a carry, not good.
November 12th, 2017 at 1:38 pm
I’m the biggest JW3 supporter, but seeing the accuracy of fitz leaves me wanting for JW to throw like that. That being said, I don’t think it is something that can’t be fixed. It is legitimately all about the throwing motion. JW was accurate at FSU, and when he got here they wanted to change his throwing motion to shorten it. I think this has completely thrown his accuracy off. Koetter not adjusting his Gameplan for that isn’t helping either. I think this next regime change will be a good thing for JW as long as we hire someone willing to adjust on the fly.
November 12th, 2017 at 1:39 pm
I think we look better without Jamies forcing passes to Evans. It is good to see other WRs getting receiving yards. Let’s hope this is what the rest of the game looks like.
November 12th, 2017 at 1:39 pm
Really ? Fitz is no better than jw. Hey Jets have no pass rush either
November 12th, 2017 at 1:39 pm
First quarter offensive explosion!
November 12th, 2017 at 1:41 pm
Ryan Smith is looking better
November 12th, 2017 at 1:42 pm
Gmc gets creamed on 1 on 1 matchup
November 12th, 2017 at 1:43 pm
The funny thing is, we are going to win just enough games to miss out on the top pass rushers AGAIN. Bradley Chubb would be wonderful next to GMC
November 12th, 2017 at 1:43 pm
Great Jacksonville TD just now.
November 12th, 2017 at 1:44 pm
It’s like the Bucs are playing themselves out there.
November 12th, 2017 at 1:46 pm
TV commentator calling out “Ho-Hum” coach koetter’s madden play calling.
November 12th, 2017 at 1:46 pm
Dance, dance, dance…
November 12th, 2017 at 1:46 pm
Bradley Chubb looks like K. Mack.
It either him or OT Conner Williams from Texas
They just called Koetter out for being predictable. Lol
November 12th, 2017 at 1:46 pm
Lamarcus,,, really. Give Fitz an entire game and he will win it for you as I said for the last 4 games. He is just better than JW….Better Athlete… Despite the constant offensive line penalties , he will find ways to win. He is a winner, he is going to win today.
November 12th, 2017 at 1:47 pm
Now you are seeing why JW is way better than Fitz. Fitz is causing these sacks with his happy feet. Stay in the pocket and throw the ball.
November 12th, 2017 at 1:47 pm
#76 Smith….play until the whistle every play and that wont happen. He had control and then gave it up when Fitz needed him most.
November 12th, 2017 at 1:47 pm
OL is just horrible, think marpet at center is a huge reason the OL cant be average
November 12th, 2017 at 1:47 pm
Dsmith is trash. Why is he on tampa?
November 12th, 2017 at 1:48 pm
Play calling is unimaginative and predictable.
November 12th, 2017 at 1:48 pm
Yeah the Jets have no pass rush. You are clueless La dumb a$$.
November 12th, 2017 at 1:48 pm
@Swanee – I don’t know if he is “better” than JW, he’s definitely more experienced and less of a diva.
November 12th, 2017 at 1:49 pm
Swanee
Lol there is absolutely no qb controversy here at all. Stupidest thing I’ve ever heard.
November 12th, 2017 at 1:51 pm
A holding on offensive is a sack to the defense in my eyes. McCoy has been a monster today
November 12th, 2017 at 1:51 pm
Cmurda
Are you kidding me?
Jameis innermost circle. Bucs are moving ball A little more exciting than in past. Go to a game and open eyes would help.
November 12th, 2017 at 1:52 pm
LETS GO!!!!!!
November 12th, 2017 at 1:52 pm
God we missed him
November 12th, 2017 at 1:52 pm
Grimes is amazing. Great coverage and he read that ball the whole way
November 12th, 2017 at 1:53 pm
Lol there is ur q.v. controversy LOL
November 12th, 2017 at 1:53 pm
Tell me more about how Fitz is way better than JW. That was a horrible throw. He leads him and that’s 6 pts.
November 12th, 2017 at 1:53 pm
Fitz throws his obligatory pick. #newbosssameastheoldboss
November 12th, 2017 at 1:53 pm
Yah. That was a jinx on command
November 12th, 2017 at 1:53 pm
This game is setting football back a decade. Both teams are absolutely awful.
November 12th, 2017 at 1:53 pm
LMAO 😂
November 12th, 2017 at 1:53 pm
McCown! Fitzgerald! The NFL on CBS!
November 12th, 2017 at 1:54 pm

November 12th, 2017 at 1:54 pm
True buccaneers fashion. Embarrassing
November 12th, 2017 at 1:54 pm
Time for our D to STEP UP McKown wil turn the ball over again. I PROMISE YOU.
November 12th, 2017 at 1:54 pm
Aaaaaand the losers who want Fitz can stop now. Pass was abysmal
November 12th, 2017 at 1:55 pm
Fitz doing his best Jameis imitation by throwing behind the player for INT.
lol
November 12th, 2017 at 1:56 pm
Goat,,, okay maybe your right. Maybe I am wrong. Terrible throw by Fitz. Better see an improvement next drive. However JW is not the answer, we better draft a QB who is a winner…
November 12th, 2017 at 1:56 pm
Great defensive series. Bucs doing much better today stopping the run.
November 12th, 2017 at 1:57 pm
Swanee, draft a QB?!?! Please hush.
November 12th, 2017 at 1:57 pm
Damn it’s like the offense this has been getting field possession this week. Can we get a td 🙁 or nah?
November 12th, 2017 at 1:57 pm
Both Qbs on the team suck!! Period
November 12th, 2017 at 1:58 pm
No it was not face mask it was a horse collar tackle
November 12th, 2017 at 1:58 pm
I can’t stop watching the YouTube video of Bradley Chubb stealing the Clemson QBs towel 4 times. Lol that is the kinda dawg we need on our team. Sapp would love the guy
November 12th, 2017 at 1:58 pm
Dirk koetter is a weak coach, we need stronger leadership to stop making stupid mistakes
November 12th, 2017 at 1:59 pm
ASJ met Kwon the giant killer.
November 12th, 2017 at 1:59 pm
Ha the jw basbashes looking dumb af. Are yall mad or nah????
November 12th, 2017 at 1:59 pm
I do see better energy on the OFF/DEF lines at least. Id like to see Barber get a few rips but not on first down, which seems to be our running down
November 12th, 2017 at 2:00 pm
But Pepperoni Winston is a playing today
November 12th, 2017 at 2:00 pm
Oline is weak
November 12th, 2017 at 2:01 pm
Chanepic, Both quarterbacks are awful. So you would go into next season with what we have? Really. It won’t change next season until we have A NFL QB who doesn’t continue to make mistakes.
November 12th, 2017 at 2:01 pm
calm down there Fitz! Holy crap he’s going to kill himself
November 12th, 2017 at 2:02 pm
Gotta love the flags being picked up against the Jets. No personal foul with #33 Jets roughing up Fitz after tackle.
November 12th, 2017 at 2:02 pm
I thank Evans makes Winston look like he can complete a pass. About time to give the receiver credit
November 12th, 2017 at 2:02 pm
Koetter is killing this offense again.
November 12th, 2017 at 2:03 pm
Whew….damn good thing we have our 5 best OL out there playing.
November 12th, 2017 at 2:03 pm
Our OLine doesn’t look like it’s pass-blocking today any better than it run-blocks.
November 12th, 2017 at 2:04 pm
I’m the biggest hater of this defense but they are good today pitching a shut out but offense for the 4th week in a row can’t get it together? This is on Koetter big time. Not his quarterbacks?
November 12th, 2017 at 2:04 pm
Holy crap this game is boring a.f.
November 12th, 2017 at 2:04 pm
Is Koetter brain dead? Why are we still dealing with runs up the middle on first and second down? We are lucky it’s still 3-0.
November 12th, 2017 at 2:04 pm
@Swanee – reasonable people can disagree but it’s pure Sunday morning couch-dweller GM comedy to talk taking a QB in this draft when you have a 23 year old on the roster now. This Oline needs addressing, DE, CB, all are more glaringly deficient than the QB spot. You’re talking crazy and you sound like a irrational JW hater.
November 12th, 2017 at 2:05 pm
Lavonte’s all over the place today. Great tackle for loss.
November 12th, 2017 at 2:05 pm
Lvd looking like a boss
November 12th, 2017 at 2:06 pm
No pass rush, no blitz. 8 games and counting
November 12th, 2017 at 2:06 pm
When we gonna play our top pick Howard !! No innovation on offense
November 12th, 2017 at 2:06 pm
Wow! Swaggy came alive. Great tackle for no gain.
November 12th, 2017 at 2:08 pm
this is a doodoo game WOW…. as a koetter supporter, this offense is bad, licht didnt build the trenches very well but go bucs
November 12th, 2017 at 2:08 pm
I want to see beckwith as an edge rusher every once in a while. Can’t hurt
November 12th, 2017 at 2:08 pm
So the cover no-one defense is back
November 12th, 2017 at 2:09 pm
Feels like an exhibition game played somewhere in Europe.
November 12th, 2017 at 2:10 pm
Dusty
Don’t blame Licht for Koetters lack of creativity.
November 12th, 2017 at 2:11 pm
ChanEpic, I agree we have to many other positions to fill. I did not mean in draft. Free agency. I like JW as a person but he is to inconsistent as he has proven in these past 4 games. To many turnovers and interceptions and red zone ineffective. Can’t go into next season under these circumstances.
November 12th, 2017 at 2:13 pm
Will Clarke? Nice sack.
November 12th, 2017 at 2:14 pm
Will Clark just stole home!!
November 12th, 2017 at 2:15 pm
Bucs get a sack and take a TO! Then the D gives up the booty on 3rd and 14…= terrible.
November 12th, 2017 at 2:15 pm
No pass rush + no coverage = 1st down. The saga continues.
November 12th, 2017 at 2:15 pm
wtf
November 12th, 2017 at 2:15 pm
Man I love the secondary.
November 12th, 2017 at 2:15 pm
This is on Mike Smith. These 3rd and longs and he is too much of a wuss to call a blitz. Why? He’s a horrible D Coor. All the stupid talk of getting a QB when JW is just fine. Mike Smith is a terrible coach and needs to be canned pronto. The only reason we aren’t losing yet is because the Jets receivers suck.
November 12th, 2017 at 2:15 pm
First game I’m not watching this season. Mainly because I’d rather lose for draft position and because no matter what Fitz does today I’ve seen enough from him his whole career to no have confidence in him. I swear the Bucs comment sections on sites are full of people who never watch other teams. Our Oline sucks and many of us have been saying this well before the season ended last year. The Dline is untalented yet we didn’t even try to bring someone in. The offensive play calling is more than vanilla and predictable and Dirk never tailors the game plan to his players strengths. Yet we act shocked at how the team performs. I’ve been unimpressed with Licht, he needs to be fired before the end of the season so they can get the best GM available before the season ends and there is more competition. This also would give the new GM enough time to recruit the new HC

Ha the jw basbashes looking dumb af. Are yall mad or nah????
If America’s Present Laughingstock, Instigating, Injured, Captain of Immaturity, Losing, Only Seen in Local Markets, Backed into Pro Bowler Because Three Others Backed Out and Never Returned, Benched for Ineptness, Having His Best Season as A Pro, Drive Killer, Mr. Magoo aka Jameis Winston were in the game it would be 30 to 0 already.
November 12th, 2017 at 2:17 pm
Waste of a timeout
November 12th, 2017 at 2:18 pm
LMAO we just blitzed 7 and still didn’t get pressure
November 12th, 2017 at 2:19 pm
The NY Receiver Anderson has killed us, on this drive. We are playing 15 yards off of him, like he is Odell Beckham.
Then, on national TV, it keeps showing more Jets fans then us, in our own stadium 🙁
November 12th, 2017 at 2:19 pm
Conte. Come on
November 12th, 2017 at 2:20 pm
Conte Being our best Safety all season says all you need to know about our secondary safeties
November 12th, 2017 at 2:20 pm
Kendell Beckwith, finally turned him loose off the edge. Great sack.
November 12th, 2017 at 2:20 pm
Look at that. Beckwith off the edge just like I asked. Lol
November 12th, 2017 at 2:20 pm
How either of these teams won a game this year is a miracle.
November 12th, 2017 at 2:21 pm
Watch the Jets get a TD after declining the penalty now.
November 12th, 2017 at 2:22 pm
I’m sure this is exactly what the NFL had in mind when they changed the rules to open up the game. What a 3-3 tie and neither team is able to score a single TD?
Scintillating football!!! The excitement is simply overwhelming.
November 12th, 2017 at 2:22 pm
Great job when it counted D! Lavonte’s on fire.
November 12th, 2017 at 2:23 pm
This game Sucs!
November 12th, 2017 at 2:24 pm
StPete, 3-3 sure beats being down 30-0. Been there, done that. Ain’t pretty.
November 12th, 2017 at 2:24 pm
This game is a real yawn burner !
November 12th, 2017 at 2:24 pm
No TD’s in 5 straight games in the 1st half.
November 12th, 2017 at 2:25 pm
Whewwww! 1/2 of that crap show is in the books.
November 12th, 2017 at 2:25 pm
Only took Smith 8 whole games to try and use Beckwith as a pass rusher.
I’ve been saying that we would use him this way since the friggin draft.
FIRE SMITH HIRE FANGIO… AS DC
November 12th, 2017 at 2:25 pm
There are some mental midgets on the OL!
November 12th, 2017 at 2:25 pm
Bucs’ fever!
Yeah!!!!
November 12th, 2017 at 2:25 pm
What’s really sad is some people actually paid $$$ to watch this.
November 12th, 2017 at 2:26 pm
LOL
November 12th, 2017 at 2:27 pm
Mike Smith is an idiot. LVD is running his own plays. 3-3 at the half. Koetter is not calling the offense right now. Hope the offense starts calling some plays on its own in spite of Koetter. C’MON TAMPA BAY!!
November 12th, 2017 at 2:28 pm
Has Batman wannabe made a play yet ?
November 12th, 2017 at 2:28 pm
Ok………..were in it. The big crowd noise should put us over the top.
November 12th, 2017 at 2:30 pm
How much cap space would be freed up releasing Martin and McCoy…
November 12th, 2017 at 2:30 pm
Another game with only 3 points at halftime
November 12th, 2017 at 2:31 pm
You know I’m starting to hope JW finishes up his current contract and moves on. You fans are insane, he’s the only one to bring any excitement and juice to this team. Then you’ll have nothing again but your same tired, horrible Bucs. Like I said you haters will have what you deserve… NOTHING!!
November 12th, 2017 at 2:31 pm
Not losing at the half! Not winning, but not losing. Oh yeah!
November 12th, 2017 at 2:31 pm
Are organization is ran by idiots let’s face it. They were fooled into believing Dirk was responsible for the offense being better Lovie’s last year. When in actuality the offense improved because we had a #1 pick replacing the garbage that was Glennon and Mcclown. The offense is still not producing in the first half today either with Fitz as the qb, so whats the only constant Dirk’s silly ass and his staff. Lmao it’s ridiculous that some of you are done with Jameis when half the coaches in the NFL would give up there left nut for him.
November 12th, 2017 at 2:34 pm
Offense had the ball at 50 or better 3 times and NOTHING
November 12th, 2017 at 2:34 pm
It’s becoming a task to watch this team.
#lichtmyb*lls
November 12th, 2017 at 2:34 pm
Koetter got some splaining to do to the jw bashers. I love Jw but I hope he moves on from the Buccaneers
November 12th, 2017 at 2:35 pm
Gerald McCoy with 2 sacks and 1 pass defense on the year. That is about 6 million per sack. Winning!
November 12th, 2017 at 2:35 pm
D.R.
Yeah we at least have a shot of winning this one but geesh…this stuff is getting hard to watch…kind of like UF football…or FSU football
November 12th, 2017 at 2:35 pm
Me too
November 12th, 2017 at 2:36 pm
I blame the Stick Carriers
November 12th, 2017 at 2:37 pm
I do not think I can stand so much offense. Its actually offensive.
November 12th, 2017 at 2:37 pm
WBIR-TV in Knoxville reporting Your football coach Chucky has just agreed to become the next head coach of your Tennessee Volunteers…. maybe the Tuna will reconsider taking the job if Koetter is out
November 12th, 2017 at 2:37 pm
Where tf is peyton barber? Koetter is a stubborn SOB.
November 12th, 2017 at 2:38 pm
I agree, WTF is Peyton Barber ?
November 12th, 2017 at 2:39 pm
Looks like the posters are on Mollases man (JW), even though he is not playing…..
I concur
November 12th, 2017 at 2:39 pm
I love Godwin
November 12th, 2017 at 2:39 pm
Teddy TB:
This Is typical Buc fan , they always look to get rid of players and than cry that we have no good players.
Anyone says get rid of Winston has no clue, never give players room to develop
November 12th, 2017 at 2:40 pm
Lets see
2nd half
1st down………… run
2nd down …………………run
3rd down ……………………………pass
4th down ……………………………………….punt.
Same old Sh…t
November 12th, 2017 at 2:40 pm
The irony of ASJ catching the winning TD from McCown to end this game is really going to be depressing for Buc fans. Especially when OJ Howard finishes with no catches on the day.
November 12th, 2017 at 2:41 pm
Bucs fans I understand how y’all are feeling I’m in this boat with you but don’t be so depressed. Lets embrace the tank, shutdown Jameis and give our new GM some high picks to work with. Trust me I’m a Lakers fan tanking has gave that team new hope. Best part about the NFL is you don’t have to tank multiple years to bounce back.
November 12th, 2017 at 2:42 pm
That wasn’t a hold
November 12th, 2017 at 2:42 pm
That didn’t look like holding on Donovan Smith. He just threw him down.
November 12th, 2017 at 2:42 pm
There is an NFL officiating agenda against the Bucs. No conspiracy theory. Just what it is. There is no other explanations for calls like the hold against Smith. Not even close to a hold.
November 12th, 2017 at 2:43 pm
Looks like ol 76 thinks he is david logan..swap him over to DT
November 12th, 2017 at 2:43 pm
I’m sorry I know Donovan Smith makes mental mistakes but I get seen a lot of penalties called on him that are phantom at best and it’s always on big plays
November 12th, 2017 at 2:43 pm
Tanking is for fuking losers.
November 12th, 2017 at 2:43 pm
THE TRUTH, HOW MUCH TIME DO YOU NEED TO GIVE WINSTON , THREE MORE YEARS , , IT MIGHT WORK !!!
November 12th, 2017 at 2:44 pm
@ the truth
he was the same in college as he is now.
Molasses Man
If you could correct that, and pass accuracy, and the ability to lead a receiver. and pass where they’re going not where they have been
and read a defense
and…………………..
he can stay
November 12th, 2017 at 2:44 pm
Hilarious Dusthty
November 12th, 2017 at 2:44 pm
Yes! We have a kicker.
November 12th, 2017 at 2:44 pm
D Jax wide open. Fitz nowhere close to him. There is definitely no Qb controversy in Tampa. I laugh my butt off at the notion. Nice to see Murray being our guy.
November 12th, 2017 at 2:44 pm
Bad playcalling running on 2nd and 15
November 12th, 2017 at 2:45 pm
Murray, u da man!
November 12th, 2017 at 2:45 pm
Seriously though how is that a hold I’m extremely confused. It looked more like Donovan Smith performing a flawless pancake/body slam.
November 12th, 2017 at 2:45 pm
Koetter is killing us. Murray just made us 6-3. THere’s always hope.
November 12th, 2017 at 2:45 pm
Tv announcer just called America’s Gm “ Jason Licked “
November 12th, 2017 at 2:45 pm
So nice to have a FG kicker who can make em!
November 12th, 2017 at 2:46 pm
Referees have ruined the NFL, not sure if I can watch the NFL, week after week, penalties are ruining the flow of games.
November 12th, 2017 at 2:46 pm
OJ Howard, Paging OJ Howard… Please report the Buccaneers sideline.

Not sure about that. This team is in a decade long rebuild. Now we have Can’t Hit a Receiver In Stride, America’s Present Laughingstock, Instigating, Injured, Captain of Immaturity, Losing, Only Seen in Local Markets, Backed into Pro Bowler Because Three Others Backed Out and Never Returned, Benched for Ineptness, Having His Best Season as A Pro, Drive Killer, Mr. Magoo aka Jameis Winston to cheer for.
November 12th, 2017 at 2:46 pm
Fitz throws one INT and they’ll want to hang him don’t worry!
November 12th, 2017 at 2:46 pm
BUC MAN SHUT THE F UP. WHY ARE YOU BASHING WINSTON IN A GAME HES NOT PLAYING IN AND BETTER YET FITZ LOOKS ATROCIOUS. YOU AND YOUR STUPID CAPS LOCK CAN GO BACK TO THE TITANS FORUM. YOURE FAR FROM WELCOME HERE. SERIOUSLY JUST GO
November 12th, 2017 at 2:47 pm
That invisible holding call killed us
November 12th, 2017 at 2:48 pm
Foot work related.. that’s on the coaching. Enough said.
November 12th, 2017 at 2:48 pm
With how quiet the stadium is I guess the Stick Carriers don’t travel well.
November 12th, 2017 at 2:49 pm
@WeAreLost um duhh we are losers right now! Lol You think that 1 extra game we won against Carolina last year made any difference in a positive way. We ended up drafting like 5 spots further back. Y’all need to get realistic around here before the browns create a playoff team before us.
November 12th, 2017 at 2:49 pm
The cover was still on that monocular…..jeeze
November 12th, 2017 at 2:49 pm
No one cried last year about Winston when they went 9-7.
It to early
You guys would have gotten rid of Peyton manning after year one , Troy aikman after year one. Not that he is that but give him more than 2 years.
Yes his accuracy on long ball sucks.
This coach calls plays to. Out them in 3rd and long , calling bad game effects QB AS WELL.
November 12th, 2017 at 2:50 pm
Smith is calling a good game
November 12th, 2017 at 2:50 pm
Playing better as a TEAM today
November 12th, 2017 at 2:51 pm
Again, Bucs’ D is holding tough. Even without Swaggy & Will Gholston. Smitty using the LBs much more effectively today to blitz.
November 12th, 2017 at 2:51 pm
Manning took his team to the playoffs in year 2 and 3 after two 3-13 seasons before that. There is no comparison with Mr. Magoo.
November 12th, 2017 at 2:53 pm
Yeah but it’s been three years and his down the field accuracy still sucks
November 12th, 2017 at 2:53 pm
@Seasonisover you either just hate Winston or you are a troll. He’s not even playing today, and is also not responsible for the Defense being horrible. And if you’re not sure a NFL team can draft & work Free agency in one offseason to bounce back just look at the Rams this year.
November 12th, 2017 at 2:55 pm
Why is Payton Barber not in the game ????
November 12th, 2017 at 2:55 pm
How many bad years has Jamies had ? Should I say seasons
November 12th, 2017 at 2:55 pm
Koetter is a slow learner!
November 12th, 2017 at 2:55 pm
Yes, I know other teams can do it. I’m saying the Bucs have been rebuilding for a decade. At some point the fans have to rebel against the losing.
November 12th, 2017 at 2:56 pm
weird jason licht didnt try and get kony ealy to help our outstanding DL
November 12th, 2017 at 2:58 pm
Fitz is laughable. Throws behind the receiver consistently. Go ahead and blame Dirk for a Qb and O Line that just stink.
November 12th, 2017 at 2:58 pm
Offense going to lose us this game. That’s 4 times past the 50 with no points
November 12th, 2017 at 2:59 pm
Different QB same result boys on offfense.
Again where is Howard , best TE to come out in years and we don’t use him all year.
Where is the OC putting players In position for success
November 12th, 2017 at 2:59 pm
Idiot just keeps Doug in there.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:00 pm
Winston in this game, healthy and we have 17 or so points. That’s a fact. I’m not even going to entertain the baphoons that said Fitz is in now we can win. It’s purely laughable. This is the case of every loss. One side shows up the other doesn’t. This week the offense sucks. Then again they have scored one touchdown in like 11 quarters
November 12th, 2017 at 3:01 pm
Season Is Over – Dude, with the exception of the Late-Dungy and very Early-Gruden era this team has sucked more than a Hoover warehouse since its inception. What is the only constant through all this agony? The ownership. The Glazers are far more focused on their real cash cow in Manchester and 98% of their decisions about the Bucs have been woefully stupid. How long can we the fans of this bunch of bozos suffer through this ownership-driven epic failure?
November 12th, 2017 at 3:01 pm
Great stop Bucs. Lavonte & GMCnoth in there.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:02 pm
Dirk punishing Peyton Barber for his aggressive running style last week, LOL. Charles Sims is still on our roster, LOL. Can we move D Smith to to RT please, even though that was a BS penalty, I have seen enough already.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:02 pm
LVD playing good today
November 12th, 2017 at 3:02 pm
By the way I want us to tank because I believe the team is actually talented and just has bad leadership. That means if we do end up drafting high we’ll be in a great position to turn it around next year. Don’t act like we don’t need DEs, CBs, OLineman, and a RB.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:03 pm
Safety too I’m tired of the Chris Conte Experiment
November 12th, 2017 at 3:03 pm
Charles Sims is still on our roster, LOL.
That’s what i was thinking!
November 12th, 2017 at 3:04 pm
Coach “3 and Out” Koetter should really think about changing the game plans.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:05 pm
O line got worse when we moved marpet, smith and martin suck
Coach losing team cause playing guys who don’t produce and play bad
November 12th, 2017 at 3:05 pm
Wow!!!
November 12th, 2017 at 3:05 pm
Nobody f**ks with the Jesus!
November 12th, 2017 at 3:06 pm
I use to like dirk but I’m over it!
November 12th, 2017 at 3:06 pm
Dotson and Smith lead the team in penalties.
Defense has been playing well at least.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:06 pm
We run too often on the first play of drives
November 12th, 2017 at 3:07 pm
BTW did Adam Humphries get into D Martins stash? He can’t catch at all this year.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:07 pm
LOL @ punishing Barber 😂😂
November 12th, 2017 at 3:07 pm
Is he saving barber for the 4th quarter?
November 12th, 2017 at 3:07 pm
What gives Joe? Have I been banned?
November 12th, 2017 at 3:08 pm
Fitz is beyond bad but the OL is worse as it can’t help him by establishing the run. This team, coach and GM remind me of those 80’s teams that were void of any talent or heart.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:08 pm
I fell asleep. What year is it?
November 12th, 2017 at 3:08 pm
Beckwith is quick … nice tackle for loss.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:09 pm
Hey Joe can we get a new Uniform contest posted on the site. Fans need to take something into our own hands lol. I wanna be able to buy new Bucs gear and still look good.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:09 pm
Kudos to Licht on Beckwith!! Dude is a real man, should have been sending him off the edge all year, M Smith
November 12th, 2017 at 3:09 pm
@Matts17 – Fully agree… they don’t even look like they want to be out there, and Fitz is stinkin’ up the stadium. Maybe I can play QB for the Bucs… I can’t be worse!
November 12th, 2017 at 3:10 pm
Good challenge finally Koetter!!!!
November 12th, 2017 at 3:10 pm
Nice challenge Dirk
November 12th, 2017 at 3:10 pm
Beckwith, such a bright light on this D!
November 12th, 2017 at 3:10 pm
That’s a fumble. I do have to say Kwon has had a very nice game. Nice to see. The defense looks motivated. Fitz needs to do something now.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:10 pm
@TeddyTB – I had over $1000 of pewter uniform gear but since the Alarm Clock redesign I even peeled the Bucs sticker off my car. Totally embarrassing.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:11 pm
I have been saying for years let the play go and rule afterward. It’s clear the balls out and they get a touchdown. Yet they rule him down and can’t reverse that to give 7
November 12th, 2017 at 3:11 pm
💯 fumble!
November 12th, 2017 at 3:11 pm
We just gots screwed out of a td!!!
November 12th, 2017 at 3:11 pm
Jooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooe
November 12th, 2017 at 3:11 pm
Of course if the refs get it right originally than LVD walks into endzone.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:11 pm
Should have been a td
November 12th, 2017 at 3:11 pm
LOVE the small sign on the back of that line judge’s helper: “I Will Always Stand!” So cool and appropriate this weekend especially.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:12 pm
Kwon’s Back!
November 12th, 2017 at 3:13 pm
I really like Godwin. He could be a star in this league.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:13 pm
Nice pass finally on first down again
November 12th, 2017 at 3:13 pm
This oline is terrible.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:13 pm
Bucs’ OLine run-blocking is a joke. Barber didn’t have a prayer on that play. Waste of a down.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:13 pm
Much better defense today. Much better tackling. It is a fumble absolutely.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:14 pm
FG?
November 12th, 2017 at 3:15 pm
Fitz should’ve known better on that INT. Thank heaven for the penalty on the Jets.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:15 pm
LMAO 😂😂😂
November 12th, 2017 at 3:15 pm
This OL hates to run block
November 12th, 2017 at 3:15 pm
Hope you idiots calling for Fitz are happy. Effing embarrassment to the fanbase.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:15 pm
The Refs are the best paid legs on the field today….what a queer game
November 12th, 2017 at 3:15 pm
At least our OLine is getting good at helping up the Bucs’ RBs after they get stuffed for a loss.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:15 pm
DLine, and Oline have to be the first two picks next year.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:16 pm
Keep running koetter. You’re a genius. Worst offensive line in Bucs history and you guys give jameis a hard time. It’s incredible.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:16 pm
Lucky penalty for Fitzy
November 12th, 2017 at 3:16 pm
F ing OL
November 12th, 2017 at 3:16 pm
FG coming up …..
November 12th, 2017 at 3:16 pm
4th and 2. Dirk doesn’t go for it. That’s how coaches lose jobs.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:17 pm
It can’t be the OL. We have been told all along that Martin forgot how to run the ball.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:17 pm
Barber getting stuffed in the backfield time and time again.
It must be Doug Martins fault!
November 12th, 2017 at 3:17 pm
Good thing jets are most penalized secondary in league… Got lucky
November 12th, 2017 at 3:17 pm
Smart play taking the FG right there.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:17 pm
We have a kicker. Now if we just had an offense.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:17 pm
The defensive improvement is nice to see. But we still can’t score points. Like I said earlier, we will probably win just enough games to miss out on the top pass rushers and OT in this draft. Smh
November 12th, 2017 at 3:18 pm
Good thing we FINALLY have a kicker
November 12th, 2017 at 3:18 pm
GJ Murray!!!!!
November 12th, 2017 at 3:18 pm
Defense has to win this game. And if they do it’ll be huge for this Defense.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:19 pm
Murray has been gold. To think, we had him before drafting Aguayo.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:19 pm
Nice hands #11. Really

Keep it up D!
November 12th, 2017 at 3:19 pm
@cmurda
The offense is struggling and taking the field goal was the correct call. Defense is playing very well and make the Jets get a TD instead of tying the game with a field goal
November 12th, 2017 at 3:19 pm
Tapp? OK good stuff.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:20 pm
WOW! Can our guys FINALLY be sensing when there’s blood in the water.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:20 pm
Best offense coming onto field. Murray best offensive player on this team.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:20 pm
Darryl Tapp? Say what? Nice sack though.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:20 pm
Damn! A td with the extra point still beats us. Gutless coaching. No wonder the stands will be empty at the remaining home games. Ticket buyers deserve better than this crap.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:20 pm
Is that 3 sacks today?
November 12th, 2017 at 3:20 pm
Not able to watch the game but stats say c Baker having a better game than gmc
November 12th, 2017 at 3:20 pm
Yea we will win just to mess up the draft pick
November 12th, 2017 at 3:20 pm
3rd and Mike Smith, please don’t sit back in that stupid soft zone
November 12th, 2017 at 3:21 pm
Oline might be a bigger need than dline. This oline is just pathetic. Starting with D Smth
November 12th, 2017 at 3:21 pm
Feel like I’ve gone back in the Delorean to 1977
November 12th, 2017 at 3:21 pm
Seasonisover while I hate your posts you’re spot on here. The running backs and QB aren’t the problem. Coach doesn’t help but he may not the problem. This offensive line that licht build and handpicked is one hundred percent appalling. It doesn’t matter what running back is there. Yet “Sage Ira” wants to say Martin lost his burst and isn’t good anymore. You can’t even evaluate when every back is getting slobberknockered every play in the backfield. Gimme a break. The talent evaluation of the site runners is a little scary
November 12th, 2017 at 3:22 pm
Murray has been gold. To think, we had him before drafting Aguayo.
The predictions I made for this game:
“Bucs win in a close game.
Defense gets 4 or more sacks.
Fitz throws 2 picks.
ASJ scores once.
McCown throws two picks…maybe three”
November 12th, 2017 at 3:22 pm
@Not There Yet
LOL McCoy is disruptive like always
November 12th, 2017 at 3:23 pm
Bonzai you’re right on about half of those so far
November 12th, 2017 at 3:23 pm
Here is a major change I’m seeing at least for today. It looks like our guys…especially the D are having FUN!!!
November 12th, 2017 at 3:23 pm
Fitz has one pick McCown has one ASJ hasn’t scored. Just stop Bonzai.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:23 pm
48% completion percentage and you mf want to talk about inaccuracy? Smh
November 12th, 2017 at 3:24 pm
Defense is fired up.
Good to see them playing with passion today!
November 12th, 2017 at 3:24 pm
We need 5 more Fg’s.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:24 pm
Is our OLine intentionally not blocking?
November 12th, 2017 at 3:24 pm
Why is The GM drafted a kicker at number 2, with Murray available is mind boggling . Murray has been outstanding. Will cost him his job at end of this season…..
November 12th, 2017 at 3:25 pm
Why on earth do we keep rushing Martin up the middle on 1st…
November 12th, 2017 at 3:25 pm
This defense is ridiculous!!! Why bother playing so good today? Nothing to gain but Jets offense did allow 26 sacks before today
November 12th, 2017 at 3:25 pm
Alright then Joe, peace!
November 12th, 2017 at 3:25 pm

I’ve said this for weeks. Most people shouldn’t talk sports.

@Broy34WantsGruden – ha! Get ’em.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:26 pm
Looked like Jets had NINE guys in the box on that 3rd-and-1.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:26 pm
Nice pass on 3rd & 1
November 12th, 2017 at 3:26 pm
Nice accuracy Fitz lol
November 12th, 2017 at 3:27 pm
Godwin! So glad we drafted him! Needs to take over for me13
November 12th, 2017 at 3:27 pm
Forget running the ball Coach K. Ridiculous, offensive lines running blocking is worst in NFC.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:28 pm
Pretty obvious hold by Sweezy. Ugly.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:29 pm
Sweezy is garbage. Hey Licht, your OL is a complete embarrassment.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:29 pm
That’s Licht’s pet Sweezy, smh!
November 12th, 2017 at 3:29 pm
Penalties killing both teams
November 12th, 2017 at 3:29 pm
Sweezy murdered his guy and D Martin STILL got hammered. #OLSuspectAF
November 12th, 2017 at 3:30 pm
OJ Howard is the most underutilized talent in football EVER. lol
November 12th, 2017 at 3:30 pm
Beautiful run by Sims.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:30 pm
D Smith, and Sweezy = weakest links on Oline
November 12th, 2017 at 3:31 pm
Look at that dancing bear run!
November 12th, 2017 at 3:31 pm
Sims on a CRITICAL long 3rd down romp. That’s what keeps Koetter fired up.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:31 pm
Great run Sims
November 12th, 2017 at 3:31 pm
Get Sweezy out of game. No discipline by this head coach…
November 12th, 2017 at 3:32 pm
I love how everybody is FINALLY turning on the OL a season and a half too late.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:33 pm
Really sloppy game.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:33 pm
Say what you want about playcalling but this has been a critical clock sucking drive. I think DK has the Jets off balance and they’ve been on the field enough they apppear to be sucking a bit for air. If the Bucs could somehow get a TD we win!!!
November 12th, 2017 at 3:33 pm
Swannee
U sound rediculously stupid. An O lineman has 2 penalties in a game and ur ready to bench him? Lol. U must be trolling
November 12th, 2017 at 3:34 pm
@TeddyTB – to be fair this is NOT the same OL from a season and a half ago.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:34 pm
Bring Murray out now before we turn it over.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:36 pm
@ChanEpic besides Sweezy who was on the roster just not playing it basically is.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:37 pm
Pee wee football is more exciting than these two boring teams
November 12th, 2017 at 3:38 pm
Finally able to run the ball.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:38 pm
Coaches suck bad we need a brand new team
November 12th, 2017 at 3:39 pm
This is the same formula for last year’s winning streak. Defense dominant, offense ugh.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:40 pm
Goat. Thinking like you will end up with 4-12 seasons. Nothing wrong with sitting him a series especially when he consistently holds and false starts. He holds cause he misses his blocks. You know that this line is extremely undisciplined and it continues after 8 games into the season.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:40 pm
@TeddyTb – Sweezy and Marpet playing out of position are two big changes though.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:41 pm
yeah Sims
November 12th, 2017 at 3:41 pm
Nice TD Sims!!!!!!
Jameis would have overthrown him!!!!!!
Yay Fitzie!!!!!
November 12th, 2017 at 3:41 pm
That seals the win, and our chances at an elite pass rusher or elite OT
November 12th, 2017 at 3:42 pm
Great play selection on that TD. Not so much on the 2-point conversion. Good idea going for 2 though.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:42 pm
There we go…some freaking separation. So DK calls his best drive of the entire season. Ate clock…got the TD….that’s what can happen when we’re able to run ball.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:42 pm
Nice!!!
November 12th, 2017 at 3:44 pm
Yeah, boy! I hope I’m still smiling tomorrow morning.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:44 pm
There were times on that drive that the offense looked like a real NFL offense…
November 12th, 2017 at 3:44 pm
A win feels good now but when it comes to draft day how is it going to feel?
November 12th, 2017 at 3:46 pm
We are back! Eight game winning streak to go to playoffs.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:46 pm
Cue the “told you we’d win with Fitz “ crap. He was awful. Defense won this game and it’s not a debate
November 12th, 2017 at 3:46 pm
Koerter is garbagek
November 12th, 2017 at 3:47 pm
5 sacks today. Give u that one Bonzai. Good lordie. Could the table have turned on the defense again? Hurry back jameis
November 12th, 2017 at 3:47 pm
Love how McCoy celebrates a the opposing OL is totally gassed, I haven’t done anything all day sack like a true franchise player.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:47 pm
QB pressure?? Wow. that’s what it looks like!
November 12th, 2017 at 3:48 pm
How angry would we have been if GMC’s celebration drew a flag…as was discussed on Hard Knocks. For heaven sakes win the freaking game and then go nuts!!!!
November 12th, 2017 at 3:48 pm
Stupid Bucs can’t even lose right.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:49 pm
The predictions I made for this game:
Bucs win in a close game.
Defense gets 4 or more sacks. DONE
Fitz throws 2 picks. DONE (though the second was called back by a penalty)
ASJ scores once. NOT SO FAR
McCown throws two picks…maybe three ONE PICK SO FAR
November 12th, 2017 at 3:49 pm
Again, how did either of these two absolutely awful teams win a single game this year?
I’m reminded painfully so of the Repus Bowl.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:50 pm
Twinkletoes!
November 12th, 2017 at 3:50 pm
No one else saw us getting 4+ sacks!
November 12th, 2017 at 3:50 pm
So the D finally wakes up after being called out so much…smdh! WTF GUYS! But glad you did it.
5 sacks in one game so far when they had 8 all year!
Who bought in and brought the rest with him?
November 12th, 2017 at 3:50 pm
You’re right win doesn’t matter as far as this season. It sure hurts are draft position. Would of loved to get Bryce Love or Chubb but they will be gone.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:50 pm
FIRE THEM ALL
November 12th, 2017 at 3:50 pm
I agree with all that our Defense showed up and won this game for us…but at least the O did their part.
Did Fitzpatrick win this game for us…of course not…but he did NOT lose it either.
And in fact he did a very workman like job of managing this game.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:51 pm
Absolutely hate the prevent defense. Dumber than dirt.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:53 pm
St. Pete, it appears there are alot of posters on here that would rather lose every game the rest of the year for a top three draft pic. Cowards and quitters. And obviously have no $$ in tickets for the rest of our home games.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:53 pm
Lol u want a rb in the 1st?
November 12th, 2017 at 3:54 pm
I’ll take this win!
November 12th, 2017 at 3:56 pm
The Stick Carriers are going to riot leaving the stadium.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:56 pm
Sierra
I would be saying 1 down 7 to go but I know it’s bad to look beyond next week.
One week at a time. I just hope this gives us some renewed confidence in two areas we’ve been weak….pass rush and running the ball.
November 12th, 2017 at 3:56 pm
if you are not in the playoffs, you want a high draft pick…..hello
just because you made a bad investment in the bucs does not make them cowards or quitters…lol
November 12th, 2017 at 3:56 pm
Sierra048
The season is over. what do u not understand about that? U knew when u bought the tickets that is was a gamble. Sell em. Winning 8 games every year just so u can have fun at the games is how we end up as the jets or Rams for the past 5 years.
I pay for Sunday ticket. I would much rather have us win, but it doesn’t make sense
November 12th, 2017 at 3:57 pm
Omg if we win of course we are going to be happy for the team. I’m not rooting to lose I’m just past ready to start winning playoff games. Like damn nobody remembers 7-9 or 8-8 seasons. You guys sound content to remaining a mediocre never feared team. But go Bucs
November 12th, 2017 at 3:57 pm
stick carriers is a stupid ased name
November 12th, 2017 at 3:59 pm
Yeah, Im happy for this win!!! Especially w/o Jameis and Evans….(dammmit couldve traded them while their value was still high 2 weeks ago)
November 12th, 2017 at 4:00 pm
This win alone will put us back at like #7 or 8. As compared to #4 with 2 wins. At 4 we would have our pick of the top pass rusher or OT. At 7 or 8 we will be picking from the left overs in a horrible draft class
November 12th, 2017 at 4:00 pm
The Bucs DL thinks this game against a horrible OL is saving face from a terrible year causing them to be in the position they are in. Just wait for the nonsense interviews.
November 12th, 2017 at 4:00 pm
Quitting/ tanking with half the season left makes you a loser in my book. Glad you never played on any team I’ve ever played on. I want a victory anytime e play. If not why not just forfeit the rest of the season.
November 12th, 2017 at 4:02 pm
Good thing the DBs are the strongest unit on our team
November 12th, 2017 at 4:02 pm
Both of these teams will have top 5 picks.
November 12th, 2017 at 4:03 pm
@sierra
UR NOT PLAYING. LOL. The players want to win. As a fan or GM it makes more sense to lose if the season is out of hand. It’s playoffs or bust. This is a busted season
November 12th, 2017 at 4:03 pm
Lmao @Sierra the players aren’t expected to actually try to lose games they do that on their own anyways. I’m just saying don’t flip the script now but clearly you’re one of those guys who shows off 2nd & 3rd place trophies.
November 12th, 2017 at 4:03 pm
Whoa Grimes!!!!!!!!!!!!
November 12th, 2017 at 4:03 pm
Quitting/Tanking gave us Can’t Hit a Receiver In Stride, America’s Present Laughingstock, Instigating, Injured, Captain of Immaturity, Losing, Only Seen in Local Markets, Backed into Pro Bowler Because Three Others Backed Out and Never Returned, Benched for Ineptness, Having His Best Season as A Pro, Drive Killer, Mr. Magoo aka Jameis Winston so you may be correct, Sierra.
November 12th, 2017 at 4:04 pm
awesome the defense is fighting each other
November 12th, 2017 at 4:04 pm
your book is a color by numbers, so no big deal
no fan wants the team to quit, but they have way under-performed, or over-performed last year and still need a talent infusion. they way to do that is high draft picks, not meaningless wins
November 12th, 2017 at 4:04 pm
KWON AND GMC GOING AT IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
