Jason Licht Keeps Receipts
January 7th, 2024Buccaneers general manager Jason Licht may not have jumped in his backyard pool after clinching his third conseuctive division title today, but he did engage in online trash talk.
Licht took to X and smacked around Cameron Jordan, the slimy Saints’ fat mouth edge rusher. You can see Licht’s commentary below alongside a Jordan video taking a swipe at the Bucs’ chances without Tom Brady.
For Joe, today was a Buccaneers Ring of Honor game for Licht, as in he now has earned immediate enshrinement courtesy of the Bucs’ NFC South crown.
To win a division with $70 million-plus unavailable to spend on players because of the excess of the Tom Brady years, after losing two big-money players this summer in Ryan Jensen and Russell Gage, and via a plan to play 13 rookies and start a low-budget quarterback other teams would kill to have, Joe thinks this season is a stunningly great Licht accomplishment.
And to keep it very real, Licht’s roster achieved a winning record while battling against some questionable in-house coaching.
In 10 Buccaneers years, Licht forged a team Tom Brady chose to join, delivered Bucco Bruce Arians and a Super Bowl, and retooled the roster while not making fans suffer a losing season after Brady quit/broke down.
That’s a Ring of Honor GM.
Joe hopes Team Glazer doesn’t make Licht wait years for his rightful honor.
Yep, went back to being the Bucs! Champs again. pic.twitter.com/osLQpp8LBl

I agree Joe. šÆ
January 7th, 2024 at 5:30 pm
Nobody cares about the ring of honor. People donāt even listen to the speech. It became a joke when the booted gruden for hurting feelings.
January 7th, 2024 at 5:30 pm
That’s awesome!
January 7th, 2024 at 5:31 pm
Awesome totally awesome!!! Yeah I gave you a spicoli
January 7th, 2024 at 5:32 pm
Gruden got booted for naughty language that democrats donāt like! Put gruden back in or Iām never buying a ticket or merchandise again.
January 7th, 2024 at 5:33 pm
And for all those Haters out there, Bowles took that roster, cap strapped and all, finished with a winning record and a division championship.
January 7th, 2024 at 5:33 pm
Haha this is awesome Joe! Cameron Jordan has to choke on his words today š
January 7th, 2024 at 5:34 pm
Those Stainks are just sick.
January 7th, 2024 at 5:40 pm
Pack and Hawks have to lose to keep the Stinks out of playoff
January 7th, 2024 at 5:40 pm
Itās not every year Buc fans get to celebrate a division title let alone 3xs in a row
January 7th, 2024 at 5:42 pm
Tampa bay has Two SBā¦.. How many this old Guy has??
Great post me Licht!!
January 7th, 2024 at 5:44 pm
They would have been much better without Bowles.
January 7th, 2024 at 5:45 pm
Hey Grover, I am definitely pulling for the Pack and Hawks today just to keep the Aints out. And looks like Philly is getting boatraced by the Giants which bodes well for the Bucs next weekend as Philly would be on a 1 dash 5 freefall since starting out 10-1.
January 7th, 2024 at 5:47 pm
I have to admit this season exceeded my expectations, and Licht did a masterful job in player personnel with the cap and injury issues.
January 7th, 2024 at 5:48 pm
Agree with NcBuckie. Bowles is a liability. Bucs will be a better team without him.
January 7th, 2024 at 5:53 pm
You’d think that billionaires would have a thick skin and not be sensitive babies……
Maybe change “Ring of Honor” to “Ring of Rainbow Unicorns” ?
January 7th, 2024 at 5:53 pm
Agreed Joe. He has orchestrated a phenomenal turnaround of the team post Lovie, Koetter and Winston. Whatās great is he took BIG swings, never blinked when he whiffed, gave people time to develop and owned any mistake and pivoted. A great leader. Would be great to get the inside scoop on his thought process, when and how he develops or pivots from players. This off-season and the Devin White/ Winfield/Evans situation will be an excellent case study.
January 7th, 2024 at 5:57 pm
Devon White is gone Mac Nupeā¦ā¦
No way Winfiled and I have my serious doubts ME13 will go
January 7th, 2024 at 5:59 pm
Licht is a very good GM. Toad Bowels is a mediocre, at best, Head Coach. He has reached his ceiling. Eagles are truly sh*tting the bed. They are losing 24-0 to the Giants with everything to play for. If we can’t beat them next week, Bowels should be canned.
January 7th, 2024 at 6:00 pm
So all the others teams killed each other fighting for Mayfield and he had to sign with Tampa at a discount? Gotcha.
January 7th, 2024 at 6:02 pm
I hope Devon White is gone. Guess who played better than him? JTS.
January 7th, 2024 at 6:11 pm
Joe claims Brady quit,
when BA was the one who split
He left behind his dog crap coaches,
spending Glaizers money like slimy cock roaches
They forced Tom to play, when he wanted out,
Bucs went 8 and 9 without Tom, Atlanta would rout
In the locker room Todd gave all a game ball,
It’s the DEI thing a trophy to all
So let’s look ahead at the next playoff game,
No matter the team like 2023, 2024 will be the same
Call him Blowzo, Bowels or toilet Bowls, it falls on deaf ears,
Thanks to the win today you have now him four years!!!
January 7th, 2024 at 6:19 pm
Ask cam Jordan at the pro bowl how the bucs were this year……..ohhh wait his sorry ass won’t be there .
January 7th, 2024 at 6:20 pm
For some reason Fox NFL keeps having Cameron Jordan on their pregame show. I have no idea why?… I don’t get it.
January 7th, 2024 at 6:21 pm
THE BUCS ARE TO WIN THE SUPER BOWL, BUT IT’S GOING TO TAKE ALL OF US GETTING ON BOARD THE POSITIVE BANDWAGON!
REJECT NEGATIVITY, AND JOIN THE TEAM!
#TEAMPOSITIVE!
January 7th, 2024 at 6:26 pm
Rod, WTF is that, being ironic
Mayfield enters the weekend ranked ninth among qualified signal-callers with a 95.9 passer rating, tied for fourth with 28 touchdown passes and eighth with 3,907 yards through the air on the season.
January 7th, 2024 at 6:26 pm
Anyone see what the slimy Saints did at the end of their game today? Up 41-17 with time almost out, they line up in the victory formation and then run it instead for another meaningless score. Atlanta’s coach was not happy. That’s a really good way to get your QB blown up the next time you line up in victory formation.
January 7th, 2024 at 6:28 pm
You suck, Dr. Negitive, I think BM got u n the arse when u were indisoosed FO
January 7th, 2024 at 6:29 pm
Licht should be awarded “GM of the Year” for this roster he assembled with all the dead salary cap money.
The Bucs aren’t great but did succeed almost all expectations outside One Buc Place. And some of the rookies are promising. It looks like Ya Ya is going to be a terror in the league for many years to come.
January 7th, 2024 at 6:29 pm
And Dave GFY
January 7th, 2024 at 6:30 pm
Talk that smack BOSS!
January 7th, 2024 at 6:31 pm
@NotSays,
You are probably right. I hadn’t thought of that. Makes sense and thankfully there are other choices to turn the channel to.
January 7th, 2024 at 6:33 pm
Licht should get GM of the year!
January 7th, 2024 at 6:45 pm
Iām sorry Jason didnāt jump in the pool.
But I did. And i slammed two beers afterwards.
And I recorded it.
If you want to see it the celebration click my name.
January 7th, 2024 at 6:45 pm
Yeah dunno if you want t9 talk much smack after that performance but to the playoffs the bucs go hope they are competitive go bucs
January 7th, 2024 at 6:46 pm
While I’m not happy with the play the past two weeks. It is awesome and historic what our beloved Bucs have accomplished. Also Aints elimination day, as well as Dirty Birds day is always wonderful
January 7th, 2024 at 6:51 pm
Licht did a very good job this season with this roster.
January 7th, 2024 at 6:59 pm
Saints eliminated
January 7th, 2024 at 6:59 pm
I think the Saints are out. GB is going to win it.
January 7th, 2024 at 7:00 pm
Slimy Saints are out.
January 7th, 2024 at 7:00 pm
Saints are toast. lol.
January 7th, 2024 at 7:01 pm
Haw Haw Pack just drove the stake in the Stinks hearts…….Stinks are sunk and done for!!!!
January 7th, 2024 at 7:02 pm
Love it!!
January 7th, 2024 at 7:02 pm
Jordan Love is legit.
Maybe thereās something to sitting for a couple years..
January 7th, 2024 at 7:02 pm
This team made the playoffs in spite of our coaches. Anyone can watch the Bucs play, even people who know nothing about football and see that the coaches make questionable decisions.
January 7th, 2024 at 7:06 pm
I think this means we play the Eagles. The only team we have a chance to beat.
January 7th, 2024 at 7:09 pm
MUNCHER: Agree totally with M Milligan. FO!
January 7th, 2024 at 7:14 pm
Last play of Saints game. TD on a kneel down. Arthur Smith goes crazy. Great day when both Saints and Falcons are mad.
January 7th, 2024 at 7:18 pm
We got da eagles
January 7th, 2024 at 7:20 pm
This is a life lesson on why you shouldn’t arrogantly run your mouth all of the time.
January 7th, 2024 at 7:30 pm
and the meat head GM is celebrating after barely winning the worst division in the NFLā¦
and then taking it to twitter to talk smack to a player?
Very professional Jason
January 7th, 2024 at 7:44 pm
Plus the fake kneeling Saints didn’t make it AND Sean Payton lost today!

January 7th, 2024 at 8:03 pm
Love it!! Mouthy Cam inserting his foot AGAIN! Slimy Saints are starting their vacation plans and figuring out how to rescue the league worst cap space! Hahahahahaha

@Todd Rolls do you realize your solution to cancel culture is more cancel culture??
January 7th, 2024 at 8:33 pm
Great, Licht’s childish dig on X and euphoria for winning the Sun Belt Conference sounds like canning Bowles after next week’s loss is highly unlikely.
January 7th, 2024 at 8:48 pm
This made me a smile.
Weāre a bad team right now, no doubt. But nothing makes me happier than the Saints losing / us winning more than them.
January 7th, 2024 at 9:19 pm
NE Fan, BA didn’t quit .. his health was so bad he couldn’t function as a HC!!! He was forced to move on because of his health!!! FACT!! Not fiction!!!!!!
January 7th, 2024 at 9:31 pm
Joe … ‘And to keep it very real, Lichtās roster achieved a winning record while battling against some questionable in-house coaching decisions.’
Strikes me as somewhat of a cheap-shot Joe. Licht didn’t coach this defense to a #7 ranking in Points Allowed, Bowles did. We replaced the injured Gage with a 6th Rnd draft pick Palmer who was trained up by Canales, not Licht. Same thing with the other draft picks; they weren’t coached up by Licht. Give this coaching staff credit for doing a decent job of developing a bunch of high round picks and quite a few undrafted players (like Izien?).
Could Bowles & Canales have coached better this year? Of course. Could say that about literally any coach. But to say that LICHT achieved a winning record while BATTLING against questionable coaching decisions is demeaning to what this coaching staff did with the dime-store roster that Licht provided them to work with.
January 7th, 2024 at 9:35 pm
The GM hasn’t done crap wining post Tom Brady. There is no glory in wining this division on last game of the season. What has he done to keep the Bucs fans hopeful in wining super bowl in near future ?
January 7th, 2024 at 9:40 pm
DR – thatās a good point about coaching people up, but there have DEFINITELY been more than a few questionable decisions from both Bowles and Canales. (Of course Canales is green as grass.) It seemed like Bowles was making some progress on that front, but then the last 2 weeks have been a complete question mark. At least the defense played well today, albeit against the worst team in the league, with 2 touchdowns narrowly escaped.
My issue with Bowles is stubbornness on scheme and personnel issues, and the fact that his teams come out flat way way way too often.

Why exactly do people have their panties in a bunch? Because they played all 60 minutes?
This sissy garbage where you stop playing with 12 minutes left in the game because you got a lead is some real loser mentality nonsense.
I had no issues when Schiano made his guys play 60 minutes (it was literally the only thing I liked about him), and I have no issues with anyone embarrassing the lazy Falcons when they quit before the game is over.
January 7th, 2024 at 10:35 pm
Licht’s a BEAST!!!
Now get us a Center and a true run up the gut RB
January 7th, 2024 at 11:42 pm
Licht has been awesome. Easily a top five GM the last several years. The problem is, for some reason, the Tampa Bay area has some extremely pessimistic fans who think every draft pick should be first team all pro and they love to live in hindsight when a draft is three years old and say what they should have doneā¦ Theyāre idiots.
Jason Light hits on more picks than the vast majority of the GMās, not to mention his free agent signings.
As for sticking it to cam Jordan on Xā¦ Absolutely love it
January 7th, 2024 at 11:45 pm
Joe what other team would want Baker Mayfield other than the Jets this year and that’s because their QB got hurt. Lol š Joe what team would take him who? Let’s not get crazy with us winning the division.
January 8th, 2024 at 12:48 am
Licht is definitely a TOP 5 GMā¦
Heās learned over the years to not reach for a certain position of need and taking BPAā¦Great researcher on small school O-line guysā¦.
Found some diamonds in the rough this past draftā¦..
May have been his best draft ever when you think about it.
Add the free agent rookies he signed and did a fantastic job finding quality for the coachesā¦
I just think they could have gotten coached up betterā¦.

Objectively, lets see…
Falcons
Redskins
Patriots
Steelers
If you’re not talking about injuries, and about performance, that’s the list.
Speaking of which, Baker was on the Panthers last year and was literally the worst QB in football on that team, and that was while they still had DJ Moore plus McCaffrey – Young had a lot less talent and also looked like the worst QB in football on that team. It tells you that Young might not be as bad as he looks. Maybe the Bucs can offer the Panthers a 7th rounder for him, throw in Trask. Don’t get your panties in a bunch Baker Bois, I’m talking about as a backup.

The same people who think THEY KNOW FOR SURE the team would be better without Bowles, have never heard the saying about the Devil you know.
Lets face facts, we mortgaged our future for super win and next years attempt. Worth it. But when it came time to pay the price, we STILL won a division championship? and you people KNOW BETTER that Bowles is no good.
You don’t know spit.
January 8th, 2024 at 8:28 am
Ring of honor = blowout loss
January 8th, 2024 at 9:28 am
Maybe the most ridiculous takes on this website ever. Licht is mediocre at best. This team is a joke and will get pounded by the Eagles.
January 8th, 2024 at 9:45 am

Love that kind of Moxie there Jason!
Got crickets back I bet…
That is usually how low class loudmouths roll.
Go bucs!
January 8th, 2024 at 10:04 am
Funny its Cam and the saints that lost Drew Brees and have diminished!Not the Bucs, We just keep winning division championships and by the way if Cam would like to win some more of them I think most BUcs fans would be glad to see himin a Bucs jersey anytime he wants!!
January 8th, 2024 at 2:01 pm
Baker needs to play in the playoffs just like he did at green bay if that happens they can go all the way
January 8th, 2024 at 5:24 pm
Good for Licht, nothing wrong with calling out Jordan.
I wish Licht was here instead of Rock Star, then Jordan would be a rightful Buc. But Dominik wanted Adrian Clayborn, with a known physical limitation, over the son of an all-pro and now the future hall of famer. Itās shameful think that Dom was making picks based on ādinner ordersā.
