Bucs franchise quarterback Baker Mayfield is having a career year and, as Joe said all spring and summer, he’s a hell of a lot better than Kirk Cousins.

You like that, Falcons? (more…)

Has Todd Bowles done a good job this season? (more…)

Tampa Bay answered the bell!

Take that, Todd Bowles haters. The Bucs hammered and hammered and hammered away at the Panthers for a total of 550-plus yards of offense. (more…)

Baker Mayfield will face his old team.

Massive game at The Licht House. It’s a must-win for the Bucs and the Todd Bowles regime against the feisty 4-11 Panthers.
