Bucco Bruce Arians’ Brilliance
January 9th, 2022Man, Joe is fired up.
The Bucs are the No. 2 seed in the NFC. And Joe needs to give major love to the greatest head coach in Bucs history, Bucco Bruce Arians.
A 13-4 record with a ton of injuries and a healthy dose of ridiculous drama. So much of that is on a head coach who managed the season beautifully when so many other teams win a Super Bowl and come out flat and underachieve.
This NFL season was one loaded with upsets and roller coaster rides by clubs in both conferences.
The Bucs held very steady while weathering a ton of setbacks on both sides of the ball. And they even were cursed with an extra road game, which turned out to be against then-sizzling-hot Indianapolis.
Arians deserves so much credit. His roster is loaded with believers and the Antonio Brown nonsense obviously had no effect on the club today, hammering an all-in Panthers team whose head coach had just received a blessing for the 2022 season.
Joe is full of appreciation for the head man. He knows what the hell he’s doing, which fans through The Lost Decade know is never a given in Tampa.

On our way to a hat trick! Yeah I said it. 2 in a row is just not enough!
January 9th, 2022 at 7:54 pm
I loved that the Bucs put up 41 points and Evans scored two TD’s after AB acted like the Bucs wouldn’t be able to score without him. Just beautiful.

Here is someone who deserves credit
Orlbucfan
Haha. What a total waste . Stanky
Brady sucks. Brady is a fossil. F brady
Guys dropping like flies and brady calm under pressure. The td before half swung the momentum.
Again …take a hike. You are absolutely clueless

Wrong. We’re #3 seed. Read NFL network or any other site dude
Bucs are the No. 2 seed. Not only did Arians and Mike Evans speak about this after the game, feel free to read the same site you suggested. Here is a direct link. — Joe

“If you don’t want to play, get the eff out of here!” Yes, brilliant!
January 9th, 2022 at 7:58 pm
Awesome game plus a 2nd seed cherry on top. Good job BUCS !!
January 9th, 2022 at 7:59 pm
I agree with Geno… the fact that this team was focused and handled their business is a reflection of great leadership among players and Coaches.
January 9th, 2022 at 8:00 pm
This defense has to get better especially on 3rd down. I wish they didn’t give the receivers all this cushion.
January 9th, 2022 at 8:00 pm
Yeah, to say BA sucks, you are an idiot! 13-4 and reigning Super Bowl champs. Without a doubt, the best and most accomplished coach in Buccaneer history – golf cart and all!
January 9th, 2022 at 8:00 pm
Tom takes care of his buddies. Mike got his NFL record. gronk got his bonus. if AB was healthy he will get his too.
January 9th, 2022 at 8:06 pm
Hmmm……BA stepped into a losing team and after jettisoning our #1 overall pick all he has done is won a SB for us. Then the next yr we win our first NFCS title in over a decade AND get the No.2 seed in the Playoffs.
YUP. BA definitely needs to go.
January 9th, 2022 at 8:14 pm
BA did a great job but the Glue of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers wears # 13 and his name is Tom Brady.
If Brady wasn’t here and with all the injuries including the AB drama do you believe they would be 13-4?
I don’t…..
January 9th, 2022 at 8:16 pm
Wear a # 12. I hate autocorrect
January 9th, 2022 at 8:19 pm
Sorry, I am still trying to figure out why they are.nit 16-1????
January 9th, 2022 at 8:23 pm
Bucfan, I imagine most teams have that one player that makes a huge difference. Do you think Matt LeFleur would have the record he does as a head coach without Aaron Rodgers? Just so happens Brady is our key cog in the offensive engine. He’s a Buc now and we’re lucky to have him, but you can’t take anything away from BA just because Brady’s on the team.
January 9th, 2022 at 8:25 pm
Two things I would like too see ( Joes get with your Marketing partners and hype that up for the city. Please if possible or can u talk with marketing @ 1 Bucs place👊🏾
1. T-shirts that say “ If u don’t wanna play, get the F**** out” w/ Bruce face on the front.
2. The Flags waiving in the stands ( 49er’s playoff game. first Super Bowl run)
January 9th, 2022 at 8:28 pm
Great job by Arians, the coaching staff and Tom Freaking Brady
January 9th, 2022 at 8:35 pm
Bruce Arians is by far the greatest head Coach in the NFL. Everyone admires him because he does everything possible to stimulate his players that are on the Bucs. Team especially the great Tom Brady!

I remember all the BS over us hiring BA, so many thought it was a bad move well…. Beast coaching record of any bucs couch in history!!! BA is da man hands down, I really hope we can keep him and TB around for a couple more years, winning feels sooooo good finally! GO BUCS!!!!

Why would anyone think the team would fall apart because of Brown? This is a veteran team, short of Brady or David quitting, I don’t think it would phase the team from a mental standpoint.
From an on-field standpoint they’re going to miss Brown bigly, but they’re not going to fall apart because the ticking timebomb went off, even everyone knew he was a ticking timebomb.
January 9th, 2022 at 8:56 pm
Man. A guy can’t believe Joe knows enough to know what seed we are, after the games that mattered were all played? I can’t say I agree on all topics, but when it comes to topics like this, Joe has it all down pat.

I haven’t thought about that in a while, but you’re right, all the idiots here were talking about, he might only be here 3 years, what then, why are we getting an old guy.
LOL! What idiots. Man, thanks for reminding me of that.

LISTRN…
Did you seriously just say you’re trying to figure out why they aren’t 16-1?!?!?
When I see statements like that it makes me astonished at how so many football fans can be so ignorant to reality. These are all professional NFL players, the worst teams in the league can and have gone out there and beaten the best teams in the league every other week this year.
If you don’t bring it each and every week it’s really easy to lose.
The fact that the Buccaneers are 13-4 when they’ve played 2 or 3 total games with their starting defensive backfield and one of the best coverage linebackers missing a lot of games and one of the best pass rushers playing with a torn rotator cuff… It’s pretty astonishing.
Through all their injuries and drama there are two teams that just keep winning a little under the radar: The Buccaneers and the Titans

AB who? One mention the entire game. He’s now yesterday’s news.
The news now is Jalen Hurts!

Love BA or Hate him, whatever.
The man can coach.
Very glad BA “got the band back together” when he signed the contract to be the HC of the Bucs.
GO BUCS!!!!
