Sigh of relief.

Joe knows a lot of Bucs fans point to different elements of Bucs coach Todd Bowles’ style of leading an NFL team that is uncomfortable. But for Joe, this is just about the worst. [read more]

So Buccaneers Ring of Honor general manager Jason Licht was pounding his chest before today’s game, metaphorically speaking. [read more]

Another special, special day from the best rookie running back in the National Football League. [read more]

The Kancey Man can.

One guy jumped off the screen at Joe today. And that would be defensive tackle Calijah Kancey. [read more]

Eccellente!

How could anyone not suggest Baker Mayfield is one of the better quarterbacks in the league the way he played today? [read more]

Dominant.

Candid?

Joe had to do a double-take at halftime today. [read more]

It’s a blowout!

Joe is fired up. Today the Bucs did what good teams do. They crushed a weaker opponent. [read more]

The season is on the brink! At 4-6, the Bucs are in must-win territory starting at 1 o’clock against the Giants in New Jersey.

Comment all game long below. 

Be decent. Be respectful, unless the referees get out of control (again!).

And stick with Joe for plenty of postgame action right here.

Active today.

It’s official. All-World left tackle Tristan Wirfs will not play today against the Giants.

Wirfs sprained his knee two weeks ago and was questionable for the game.

Joining Wirfs on the bench are nickel cornerback Tykee Smith (knee), undrafted rookie cornerback Tyrek Funderburk, in addition to bottom-of-the-roster guys Jose Ramirez, Earnest Brown and Devin Culp.

Zyon McCollum (hamstring) is active. How much he might play is another story. If he’s ready to roll, then the Bucs will have their starting outside cornerbacks, McCollum and Jamel Dean, on the field together for the first time in more than a month.

Bring canned foods to help local food banks and/or a toy for a local child.

Bill Currie Ford, a mile north of the stadium on Dale Mabry Highway, is the place to watch the Bucs on Sunday.  The watch party runs from noon through the end of the game. Come anytime!!

Martin Gramatica will be there all day and Bill Currie Ford will feed you! Raffles and more.

Have you ever been rattled to your core? That happened to Joe a month ago. [read more]
