Nick Bosa Laughs At Baker Mayfield Win; Fred Warner Praises Niners Crowd In Tampa
November 15th, 2024
Yeah, Joe remains sour about Sunday’s loss to the 49ers. There’s no 24-hour rule at JoeBucsFan.com world headquarters, though there is a one-hour rule for the cole slaw on the intern hot dog bar.
You saw it. Joe saw it. And the video is below. Baker Mayfield made an insane play on fourth down with the game on the line and the Bucs still lost.
Mayfield dragged beastly 49ers edge rusher Nick Bosa 10 steps to the sideline, buying time for a first-down throw. It was such a freakin’ extraordinary play that Bosa was asked two questions about it in the 49ers locker room on Wednesday.
Bosa sounded like a guy still in disbelief.
“Oh man, (laughs) the slow motion makes it look pretty tough,” Bosa said. “Yeah, it was weird because it was fourth down so I was thinking more, ‘If I hold onto him I don’t think he can make a play. If I try and get him down, maybe go for his legs, then he could possibly get off me and throw it.’
“So I figured [Mayfield] couldn’t make a play but he definitely did.”
Man, what a waste of a historic play that turned out to me.
Joe also monitored other 49ers stuff this week, including the YouTube channel of All-Pro linebacker Fred Warner.
Warner offered a look back at the Sunday’s game and focused time on all those 49ers fans in Tampa (making far too much noise for Joe’s taste).
“Boy, did the faithful show up for this game,” Warner said. “Throughout the game you see me waving my arms in the air on third down, like late in the game, because that’s how loud it was for us and having our fans behind us.”
Hearing that made Joe want to puke. But that’s just how it is this season in Tampa. Even 49ers fans are being loud at The Licht House. And yeah, they were loud.
Warner added that the Bucs were a physical test and he called the game a “slugfest” victory that the 49ers will carry with them as an uplifting force all season.
BAKER & RACHAAD KEEP IT ALIVE 🤯

Thank Lovie for another megachoke. How many can Jason and the Glazers stand? Zero more.
November 15th, 2024 at 6:44 pm
I hope the Glazers read this article because this is sad. Fans probably don’t want to go to the games now because not only is Bowles killing the team but they very rarely make any attempt to make the team better. Then they wonder why they’re inconsistent. The fans care more than everybody else. Some of the fans probably figure they could just sell the tickets & get the $$$$ for them & have their beer & everything at home instead of going because if the Glazers don’t care then WHY SHOULD WE. We’re gonna keep supporting owners & all that put no effort into helping the team? Everybody could just watch the game at home instead.
November 15th, 2024 at 6:45 pm
So many teams I would to get revenge against in the playoffs run the Table Baker
November 15th, 2024 at 6:49 pm
Why pay good money to watch this defense choke away a win every game? Or witness the horrific in game coaching of Bowles. It’s not even worth watching on TV.
November 15th, 2024 at 6:51 pm
And good gosh darned job by Rachaad getting to the sticks. How many yrs did we watch sh*tty Bucs receivers stop 3 yds short on 3 and 4thbdowns.
November 15th, 2024 at 6:54 pm
@PelsBuc61
That’s true, too! Sometimes I don’t even wanna watch their road games because of how it might end up. I’ve got season tickets & I had a bunch of SF fans by me & then they don’t understand why alot of fans from the other teams are there. This is why. Clueless coach, stubborn owners & an inconsistent front office.
November 15th, 2024 at 6:54 pm
A really great play by Baker and White.
November 15th, 2024 at 7:07 pm
It’s a transient town guys. How many Tampa natives do you really know? Everyone is from somewhere else, hell even the Sage’s favorite team isn’t the Bucs. That’s the nature of the beast when you live in a paradise like Tampa Florida, everyone is from somewhere else and everyone already has a favorite team.
November 15th, 2024 at 7:10 pm
I guess most didn’t even watch the games. Even when Bowles sends the house 99% of the time they don’t get there. Even if they do the ball is gone and in the receivers hands. Don’t send the house the middle is wide open or our people are so confused or out run. Look at the one catch bobbled our guys all around nobody touched him. The pass on the sidelines. How many yards was that? I even forgot 40 or 50? QB’S just scramble away from what pressure we do get on them. Their lines are better we are slow. Look at it.
November 15th, 2024 at 7:41 pm
Home record is nothing to be proud of.
November 15th, 2024 at 7:55 pm
Fans have quit on Bowles as proven by the fact there’s more visiting fans on a regular basis… Hopefully they haven’t quit on the team yet…
November 15th, 2024 at 7:58 pm
The good news this weekend is the bye week, although Lovie will probably figure out a way to choke out a loss.
4-14
November 15th, 2024 at 8:26 pm
Ian Beckles got it right. Bowles can only work with the ( lack of ) talent he has.
This Bowles hate is irrational. If we had a full compliment on defense, and still lost, then it would make sense. When the defense was healthy, they stifled Detroit at home.
November 15th, 2024 at 8:31 pm
Sorry Tony, but it’s the so called “fans” who are at fault here. i was a season ticket fan for 40 years and there were plenty of times I could have sold my passes and made a tidy profit, but I knew I would be selling them to enemy fans and there was no way I would do that. Any person who does isn’t a true fan but just a greedy traitorous capitalistic businessperson..
November 15th, 2024 at 8:52 pm
Goff threw for over 400 yards, but I guess in a Lovie offense that’s considered stifling.
November 15th, 2024 at 8:52 pm
* the defense is so putrid we take offense.
November 15th, 2024 at 9:17 pm
“Greed, for lack of a better word, is good.”
November 15th, 2024 at 9:42 pm
I wish I lived in Tampa during football season because I would have been at that game supporting my bucs !! We have to do better as a fan base regardless of who the coaches are players are .
November 15th, 2024 at 9:43 pm
9ers have always had a ton of fans here
November 15th, 2024 at 9:43 pm
Or
November 15th, 2024 at 9:48 pm
We have to support the team win lose or draw we can’t support team only when everything is going good . We have to support the team even when we are struggling to win games that’s the only way were be a respectable franchise. Look at the Jets they have been trash for years and they’re fan base support them anyway. That’s why they meadi talks about them so much because they respect the Jets fan base.
November 15th, 2024 at 9:49 pm
@davepear why you called him lovie? They look nothing alike 😂
November 15th, 2024 at 10:02 pm
@drdneastup
I agree I wouldn’t do that either. I’ve got season tickets & after awhile it just gets old being around the other teams fans constantly. But part of the problem is if the Glazers & the front office put any effort into this team it would be a totally different story.
November 15th, 2024 at 10:31 pm
Owners should feel so proud they hosted so many s f fans. So nice that they cater to the opposing team fan bases. At least someone is buying the tickets. Money is money, am i right? It’s a unique marketing strategy. Kudos. It’s a BUCS life.
November 15th, 2024 at 10:35 pm
EVERY effing thread, regardless the subject, “TEAM sucks” Can’t read this crap any more
November 15th, 2024 at 11:14 pm
Let’s be honest…The same people making excuses for Todd Bowles defense also wear women’s panties. Pink ones.
November 15th, 2024 at 11:29 pm
Esteban85 Says:
Solid point
I had an opportunity to watch the game in LA in ’19.
40% of the fans had Rams gear on, 40% had Bucs gear, the other 20% had gear from almost every other team in the league.
There was absolutely no home team advantage there either.
Some places just aren’t worth visiting just for a game.
Buffalo, Green Bay, Jersey……. who wants to even go there?
November 15th, 2024 at 11:55 pm
Tony l don’t think anybody wants you speaking for Buc fans.
November 16th, 2024 at 12:24 am
@Woodenman
Why’s that? After awhile you don’t think it gets old watching losing constantly? You don’t think it gets old always having opposing teams fans around you in the stadium?
November 16th, 2024 at 12:51 am
This season?
Been that way for almost 2 decades at this point.
Tampa crowds are weak af. Always.
November 16th, 2024 at 1:47 am
Yeah, because continuously mortgaging our future and staying in perpetual ‘salary cap’ HELL on a team that was the 22nd Betting “Favorite” to win the Super Bowl, makes a helluva lot of SENSE. The team was NEVER a ‘serious’ Contender to begin with, and the FO KNEW THAT. They are just letting it all ‘play-out’ right now, as they should. They have a plan in place and are sticking to it. It just is what it is. They’ll be ready, when the time is right!!!! You can either accept that reality, or you can continue (crying about it) repeating yourselves, by saying the exact same thing(s) on here, every single day.
November 16th, 2024 at 5:05 am
I love seeing that video again of Baker strong arming Bosa. Perfectly done.
Agreed, sad to see fans for other teams outnumbering the Bucs fans in our own stadium.
November 16th, 2024 at 8:08 am
Faker was tremendous. A highlight reel loss for the ages.
Especially when he missed a wide open receiver at the goal line.
TDS are fascist. FGs are more democratic.
You have to be equitable and fair.
Bowels doesn’t want to hurt anyone’s feelings by taking a victory from them.
Better to lose gracefully than win decisively.
November 16th, 2024 at 8:09 am
I had an early morning flight on Monday. Most crowded I’ve seen the plane in months. A lot of 49ers fans.
November 16th, 2024 at 10:04 am
make liam head coach now
November 16th, 2024 at 10:10 am
Ask Warner about the headbutt from White that left him grasping air.
November 16th, 2024 at 10:34 am
It is not a new thing for the local “fans” to not fill the stadium for home games. Fans support their teams while enduring losses. Tampa Bay will never change.
Go Bucs!!
November 16th, 2024 at 11:04 am
Tampa has always been a bunch of fair weather fans. All the real fans got priced out when they built the new stadium. My family had 9 seats together 11 rows up at the 40 YL, east side. When we got our seats at the new stadium they pushed us out to the 30 yard line up 35 rows. They said corporate seats took priority. And they kept bumping the price up 25-30% every few years. With better TV coverage and bigger screens it became a difficult choice. Games were not what they used to be. At the old stadium we knew all families around us for years some families for generations others since ‘76-92. At the new stadium we all got scattered it didn’t seem like half the people around us were even from Tampa much less Bucs fans. My family dropped most of our tickets the 2nd year after Rayjay.
November 16th, 2024 at 11:05 am
Melvin, I envy your confidence that the Bucs front office as some magical plan that hey are going to spring on the world when “the time is right!!!!”
That is the second plan the Bucs have. the other is old “Plan 9”. I hope this secret plan works out better than that one is.
PS
What if this plan is in your imagination and there is no plan other than try for the SB each year.
November 16th, 2024 at 11:23 am
8 more weeks and Lovie will start his new non-football career. Maybe Athletic Director at a college who wishes to allow lots of points in all their programs but not score many.
November 16th, 2024 at 12:38 pm
Don’t know where we dredged up BallHawk75. Have a feeling he is Trask to the Future with another screen name. Have to wonder about this lunatic. Mayfield is leading the NFL in TD passes, top 5 in PY, completing 70% of his passes, and otherwise leading a high powered offense minus ME13 and CG. Some of these guys just want attention. Probably best to just ignore them.
November 16th, 2024 at 1:07 pm
The owners would spend money if they thought this year is a Superbowl window. They don’t, obviously. And with good reason. Porous D, too many players hurt, young roster, those things add up to a subpar season. This team is still recovering from breaking the bank during Brady’s tenure. The team needs depth, speed at linebacker, and a head coach who knows when to call a timeout. I’m willing to give Bowles a break, hope he learns from his mistakes, but only for one more year. Next year youth won’t be an issue, nor will speed at linebacker. The Bucs will fill their high priority needs with the draft, while spending money on key free agents. We’ve got an excellent young o-line, a gritty quarterback, a rookie running back destined to be a star, and owners who have proven they will spend when the time is right. If the team doesn’t contend next year, it’s time for a new HC.
November 16th, 2024 at 6:48 pm
Went to the playoff game against the Eagles and loved it (especially shutting that Eagles fan behind me up) and was planning to go again this season but not after this 4-6 start. We’d have to win out. Don’t see it happening (Chargers) Maybe next year…if they fire Bowles.
November 16th, 2024 at 8:11 pm
I was there. We held our own in the stands. It was a good game. We were in it all the way. We always have fans of other teams, because of everyone moving to Florida. They’ll root for the Bucs until their home team comes to town. I always tell them they should move back. Carpet bagging yankees lol.
November 17th, 2024 at 1:15 am
I bet Nick Bosa really laughed his azz off when, after it appeared Baker may have made the game winning play on him, Lovie directed his team to crap the bed, again, as he is legendary for. I bet he had a throw up throw down laugh about that.
November 17th, 2024 at 4:34 am
Esteban85 Says: “It’s a transient town guys.” Good point.
Relocating here 20+ years ago from upstate NY I was amazed of how many people I met that were cheering for their home state teams, and still are. I also love the teams from my home regions-Buffalo Bills, Syracuse…, still do too, but I immediately began supporting FL teams, and our own Tampa Bay teams. The big sombrero. Remembering the excitement when USF got football and going to those games. Getting baseball-the Devil Rays. High school football. There is so much to love and support here. Go Bucs!
November 17th, 2024 at 8:56 am
2 division titles, a playoff win, players love and play hard for him, with the exception of Denver & Baltimore – we’ve been in every game, dealt Detroit their only loss and has had to deal with and manage significant injuries this year.
The references to Lovie and the hate that he receives is not warranted from my pov. AND – he is not the reason the fans don’t go to the games… many reasons for that. Transient fan base, cost of tickets and concessions, hdtv and ac beats the early season heat, this is a good trip for opposing fans (and local fans can make money off tickets), etc, etc. etc.
Keep the faith folks…
