Devin White Says Eagles Are A Better Overall Team Than Bucs

March 22nd, 2024

It seems Devin White doesn’t understand the meaning of “scoreboard.” Or perhaps he just doesn’t remember.

Joe’s never quite sure when it comes to the former Bucs savior linebacker.

Mostly from the Buccaneers’ bench, White watched Tampa Bay maul the Eagles 32-9 in the playoffs last season. Philadelphia completed its implosion and then shook up its roster after the season, which included signing White.

The Bucs’ 2020 postseason hero addressed the Eagles media after signing his new one-year contract this week and confidently advised them that he’s on a better team now.

He called it the “perfect situation” for him.

“Now you get the opportunity on a even bigger stage; this is a bigger platform here,” White said. “I think it’s a better all-around team built right here right now to go do great things. I just want to be a part of that.”

White said he’s in love with his fresh start and last year was a mirage of sorts. “That’s never been Devin White, you know, in and out on tape, you know, just dealing with everything I dealt with.”

Joe is so glad the Bucs have a home game against the Eagles during the 2024 regular season.

    To bad Devin turned out to be a self centered, self promoting diva.

    No surprise. Love the guys who get a ring then badmouth their team.

    Joe wrote that up a few days ago.–Joe

  5. Eckwood Says:

    Well R White should have 10 catches that game

  6. heyjude Says:

    Wow, so disappointed in Devin White. He has been with the Eagles for a minute and couldn’t wait to bash our Bucs. Last year was a mirage, where was he!

  7. ModHairKen Says:

    He’s perfect for Sirianni, who is also “me, me, me!”

  8. Upstate NY BUC Says:

    What ever, my best friend is a Eagle fan!! Those fans will eat him alive if he try’s to pull that DOG act out there, good riddance. Go Bucs!!

  9. A Bucs Fan Says:

    Really should have traded him. He didn’t want to be in Tampa and it showed.

  10. Mike C Says:

    Oneilbuc your boy is all class

  11. Viktor Saint Claire Says:

    Devin White sucks rope.

  12. Couch Fan Says:

    Why you all getting angry? What he said is correct. Eagles do have a better overall team. He didnt bash the Bucs. LMAO

  13. Tampabaybucfan Says:

    One more reason not to like the Eagles…

  14. Sue Says:

    Bad behavior and poor judgment. Why can’t you just go out on a good note?

  15. rriddler Says:

    He signed with the Eagles, What do you expect him to say?

  16. Beeej Says:

    Upstate NY BUC— My buddy is an eagle’s fan. also, he once got Ricky Waters (“alligator arms) so mad his teammates had to stop him from charging into the stands to beat the crap out of him lol

  17. Rick Says:

    What an idiot. If he was signed there to start, I know we have better linebackers because he wasn’t good enough to start here.

  18. Permanently Moderated Says:

    So he was just messing around down here on the little stage?

  19. Cobraboy Says:

    Jameis of the D.

    Better team? 32-9.

  20. Bucsfan207 Says:

    @joe Thanks for the heads up.

  21. BridleOaksBuc Says:

    “Dealing with everything I had to deal with.” I call bullspit and cry me a freakin river! We all deal with “everything” everyday. I actually have a pretty decent life, but I dare you, Devin, come spend a day with me and let’s see how you, “deal with everything.” Seems like he has forgotten his roots….it’s a shame

  22. TomBucsFan Says:

    pride comes before the fall.

  23. OrlandoBucsFan Says:

    Love this picture of diva white. Looks like he’s passing gas !!

  24. SB~LV Says:

    The Bucs are a better overall team
    Without DW

  25. HomerSimpsonRocks Says:

    So glad this self-centered diva is on another team now.

  26. Upstate NY BUC Says:

    Beeej, I hear that brother!! Those Eagle games are rough, been there plenty of times…

    I dunno, Eagles are looking weak at Lber.
    Well,one spot looks weak minded.

    Devon White can have Philly. Rates up there with Detroit and Atlanta as least favorite cities. He’ll fit in.

  29. SlyPirate Says:

    BETTER HOW?
    Last Game: 32-09 (Bucs Win)
    Head-to-Head Playoffs: 4-2 (Bucs Win)
    Championships: 2-1 (Bucs Win)
    Longest Playoff Streak NFC: 3-2 (Bucs Win)
    Devin Whites on Roster: 0-1 (Bucs Win)

  30. Ricki Says:

    I am not sure why you guys get all butt hurt. In paper they are better, and they were better last year too. Its a different thing if it translates on the field so get it together.

  31. Defense Rules Says:

    rriddler … ‘He signed with the Eagles, What do you expect him to say?’

    Precisely. Devin White played less than half of our playoff game against Philly and had 2 assist tackles, 1 QB hurry & 0 PDs (1 target/1 completed). Not exactly earth-shattering for the guy who’s in the middle of our defense. It’ll be feast or famine up in Philadelphia; they’ll either love him (if he plays like he did in 2020) or they’ll run him out of town (if he plays like he did last year).

    Lost in all the Devin White horsepuckey is that we still NEED to replace him. Britt isn’t the answer unless he magically gets a LOT faster (opponents will take advantage of his slowness for sure). I’m hoping that we can find a replacement starter with 1 of our 3rd Rnd picks in the draft. ILBs MAY be overlooked until that round.

  32. TAMPA BAY DEMON Says:

    It doesn’t really matter what he thinks, because Devin White is unlikely to really be heard from again.

  33. Pickgrin Says:

    Some people just don’t know when to keep their mouth shut…..

    One would think getting benched and let go by the Super Bowl winning team that drafted you #5 overall – and having to play on a 1 year, prove it $5M deal when you wanted $20M per – would create some semblance of humility… at least temporarily….

    Apparently not.

    Enjoy your new sh!thole of an NFL city Diva!

  34. bill Says:

    Devon White is not the best judge of players. He can’t even see his own shortcomings.

  35. Rayjay1122 Says:

    I read and heard after we defeated the Eagles all about how the Eagles defense was not really trying and had quit on the coaching staff. Devin White will fit right in with that group.

  36. tampabuscsbro Says:

    I’m not sure what Ricki means when they got beat in the playoffs 32-9 and the former league MVP looked beyond cooked most of the year. And lost a lot of players.

    All that matters is the scoreboard when it matters win or go home they went home.

  37. Slacker Says:

    Devin White? Hmmm..never heard of her

  38. Bojim Says:

    Devin. You’re gone and now it’s history. Good luck and thanks for the SB.

  39. Smashsquatch Says:

    Can’t wait to see him overrun a play, loaf, and play out of position. Great tackler if he can ever get his hands on you. Always seems hunting splash plays to boost his own bravado. Benched during the playoffs says it all. There’s no I in team. Good riddance, addition through subtraction for the Bucs.

  40. Cobraboy Says:

    “Better on paper” is the proverbial bucket of warm spit.

    White, you’re good on paper, look like Tarzan, play like Jane.

  41. bucfan34 Says:

    Of course he did… Wait until the Philly fans unleash on him for his overrated abilities.

  42. stpetebucfan Says:

    “Now you get the opportunity on a even bigger stage; this is a bigger platform here,”

    True dat. Perhaps a few more scheckels down the road.

    Notice Devin said nothing about last season or the one before or his need to improve. It’s ALL about the team around him but not HIM.

  43. Cover deuce Says:

    This guys only skill is talking and he ain’t even that good at it

  44. BucfaninMi Says:

    They took the wrong Devin in the draft that year. Should’ve got Devin Bush.

  45. catcard202 Says:

    Who gives a rat’s arce what Diva White has to say about the Bucs?

    If 45 was half the player he was supposed to be as a #5 overall pick, he’d still be in Tampa with the fat contract he cried about last off-season…But he isn’t & has been living off an OK rookie year that brought him a SB ring…(Thanks in a VERY VERY VERY large part to Tom Brady!)

  46. steve R Says:

    Eagles are a better team. All u people point to a playoff game where the Eagles were imploding. They lost to the Cardinals a few games before and to the Giants. The bucs are trash. They won’t make it past the 1st round of playoffs for at least the next 5 yrs. Sorry but not sorry

    ———–

    White was literally an ALL-PRO and without him the Bucs do not win the SB.

    Wow, it’s amazing how many low IQ dummies are around here.

  50. Jack Clark Says:

    Did he lie though?

  51. Capt.Tim Says:

    Ricki, Rick(i)? Are you a chick?

    “ I dont know why you are butt hurt, they are better on paper . .”
    Paper? Paper football?
    Is that the kind lil kids play, with the lil triangles you fold up out of a sheet of notebook paper?

    Well , you may be on the the wrong site, cause

    WE ARENT TALKING ABOUT PAPER FOOTBALL HERE- WE ARE TALKING ABOUT REAL FOOTBALL!
    AND IN REAL FOOTBALL, THE BUCS KICKED THE EAGLES ROUND ARSE SQUARE!!

    If you wanna talk about paper eagles- then go to an oragami site!
    Then you can talk about paper eagles all you want.
    Nobody here cares about paper eagles!!

  52. Buccaneer Bonzai Says:

    Devin White wouldn’t actually know yet if it is a better team. He’s just playing to their fans.

  53. Orlando Buc Says:

    Going to circle this game on the calendar against the Eagles. I hope Bucs coaches reminds the team of what Devin said about them every day leading up to the game against the Eagles.

  54. Buddha Says:

    White, a weak ego guy.

    White, a weak ego guy.

    ——

    I always liked White, think he’s going to make the Bucs look really bad for getting rid of him — but I have no idea why he got so triggered by social media. I know these Gen Z cupcakes are a bunch of mentally weak crybabies, but my God, you’re physically a monster yet someone can bring you to tears by calling you a poopie head. It’s really embarrassing.

    I hope for his sake, going to Philly, he gets a flip phone.

  56. William Walls Says:

    Isn’t that like getting dumped by a hot chick, then hooking up with a freak show and telling everyone your new girl is hotter? It’s like, c’mon dude, shut up! We have eyes!

  57. Jaynav33 Says:

    Remember guys, he’s with another team now. What else is he supposed to say? Bucs are better team, eagles are mediocre? Lol

  58. Buckeyebuckchuck Says:

    Right. That’s why the playoff game was a nail biter

  59. G Buc Says:

    DW choice of words is correct. I think it explains DW play and demeanor perfectly.

    Mirage – something that appears real or possible but is not in fact so.

    Scoreboard Devin, Scoreboard.

    Having said that he will have the game of his life against us next year. Book it.

  60. Cobraboy Says:

    @Rod: “What have you done for me lately?”

    The SB White left on his horse two years ago.

    NFL: Not For Long.

  61. cmurda Says:

    To be fair to Devin he was loafing around on the sidelines while the Bucs destroyed the Eagles. If you can imagine an immature little baby not paying attention, it stands to reason that he would think the Eagles are so much better. I’m still not sure he knows that the Bucs won that game.

  62. cmurda Says:

    @jaynav. No, he can keep his mouth shut as hard as that is for him. If he kept his mouth shut, he likely would have had a far larger contract. Anyway, toddlers will be toddlers.

  63. 941Boltsfan Says:

    Too many bad memories of Philly in Tampa, particularly Foles

  64. D-Rok Says:

    Devin, meet Wirfs leading on a toss sweep. That is, if you can somehow manage to avoid overshooting the gap (yet again) and get tangled up with our new, recently drafted, 390 pound center.

    Good luck bro!

    ROFL

  65. Esteban85 Says:

    Homeboy just doesn’t have what it takes between the ears and it showed. Was delusional about how his skills translated to the field. It’s a shame because we needed him to take the humble LVD approach to the game but that’s just not his style. I’m happy the Bucs are building a team of high character dudes with football intelligence.

  66. Trevor in Orlando Says:

    Did Devin White just give me another reason to hate the Eagles? Just when I was getting over the early 2000’s, and thinking “I don’t like them, but at least they aren’t the Saints”, now I hope the Eagles go 0-17, just so that guy falls flat on his face with that comment.

  67. Shane Callahan Says:

    Played his way out of Tampa and signed with the team the Bucs crushed in the playoffs. Then he says the Eagles are a better organization. This dude is a moron.

  68. Gipper Says:

    If Devin White wants to resurrect his status with the Mayfield Hate Brigade, all he needs to do is take a few digs at Baker Mayfield. Nothing would rally RodMunch, Oneiilbuc, Conner50 and the gang like White blasting Mayfield. With a little encouragement from the Brigade, White will tell us all the Jalen Hurts is a better QB than Baker.

  69. Proudbucsfan Says:

    Not many people know but Devin White when he was 18 before he went to college he was arrested with one of his teammates for having sex with a 14 yo and again for reckless driving and running from the police. I’m glad he’s off our team Dude is a major head case

  70. AnonymousBucsFan76 Says:

    Lol…

    They just got a little worse now that Devin White is in town, wait till they see him in pass coverage…

  71. Capt.Tim Says:

    What, not even one “lol” for the origami paper eagle bit?

    Sometimes I think my talent is being wasted here! Lol!

    Pretty sure DW was holding this defense back, or at least keeping it from reaching it’s full potential

    Stick to the bass Capt, lol 🙂

  74. Drunkinybor Says:

    He’s showing his as..s. He’s a snake 🐍 I’m surprised horses let him ride. This is why he’s gone. Nobody wants a back stabbing 2 face. I guess this is his great leadership skills. Well I’ll admit it rook me a long rime ro really really understand tou don’t burn bridges. Consider his bridge to the Bucs burnt. Dueces..also now I know why among my 14 Bucs jerseys of the new guys I never got his. Godwin, Evans, David, those are the new guys I bought and I’m glad.

  75. Buc4evr Says:

    If we can get a decent center, a good LG, and a few edge rushers we can be one of the best teams in the NFC. As far as Devin, something about him and the horse he rode in on. lol. 😂

  76. Josh P Says:

    This is a non story. So a guy greets the media of his new team and talks up his new team? Big deal.

  77. firethecannons Says:

    Devin White very self focused as usual. No riddance.

  78. DavidBigBucsFan99 Says:

    He’ll do exactly there what he did here, whiff on tackles, take bad angles, get juked out of his j strap by qbs and hoot and holler about making a simple basic play. We’d miss him if he only played like he did in in the 2020 playoffs as a norm. Philthy fans will find this out quickly and will end his career on a series of 1 year deals

  79. DavidBigBucsFan99 Says:

    Lt Tim you have to have talent for it to be recognized. The lil Gulper whining about the Bakerboi hate brigade when no one is even thinking about him at this time. Fanbois suffer from schizophrenia

  80. Capt.Tim Says:

    Mtm,
    At this rate, its my last resort.my comedic genius has gone unappreciated! Lol

  81. ^^mtn^^ Says:

    No, probably just underappreciated my friend.

    So much to do, so little time.

    Hang in there!

    Devin white will be out of the league in 3 years. Philly is an old team with an overrated QB. they are stuck and aren’t gong anywhere. Devin won’t even start for them.

  83. gp Says:

    This brainiac threw away 15 million this year(by quitting on his team last year) because he didn’t get the deal or trade that he wanted last year.

    Why should I give a rats A55 what he thinks now?
