Evans Breaks Out The Good Stuff
March 24th, 2020
Toasting new QB.
It seems Bucs stud wide receiver Mike Evans was in a celebrating mood this past weekend.
Just a couple of days after it was made official that six-time Super Bowl-winning quarterback Tom Brady is the new Bucs quarterback, Evans broke open the cognac. Hennessy in fact.
Evans, a gamer, was on a Fortnite stream on Twitch Sunday and after a few Hennessys explained why he was in a rocking mood, reports TMZ.com.
Brady is “about to be my quarterback, bro,” Evans told an unknown combatant. “I’ve played 6 years in the NFL and I haven’t been to the playoffs yet. Tom Brady has won 6 Super Bowls.”
Evans later added, “I’ve been on that Hennessy. Oh, I’m drinking!”
Joe just hopes Evans continues his Hall of Fame path like he has since the Bucs drafted him in 2014. Maybe a reason he broke open a bottle of hooch is Brady coming to Tampa. Now just win some damn games.
In September and December would be a good start for the Bucs and maybe, just maybe, the Bucs might have a meaningful game in January.

Sb or bust. Mike you better not drop that ball or Brady gonna put you on his knee and spank you. Trust me they’re already talking about it
March 24th, 2020 at 12:19 am
>Drop the ball
Lamarcus Mike isn’t known for drops man.
March 24th, 2020 at 12:45 am
Ouch! this doesn’t help the Winston guzzlers…
March 24th, 2020 at 12:51 am
Move on from jameis …. tuff love ?
Evans will be traded in 2 yrs if we don’t win super bowl. Trade >>> draft picks.
March 24th, 2020 at 12:56 am
See! Evan gets it!
March 24th, 2020 at 1:02 am
Get ready for this. “at least he did better than Jameis wouldve”.
Guys the bucs were predicted to finish 2nd in the NFC South in 2020 IF they brought back jameis……. Today the bucs are Predicted to finish 2nd in the NFC South WITH Brady. That tells you, this team aint good. No one has faith in the bucs even winning their division except for the folks that cant keep Jameis name out their mouth. Vegas is Daring all you guys to take that bet. Im betting against it. The Saints have a real team from top to bottom. Drew brees dont call the shots, sean payton does. Saints win the division at 13-3, bucs squeak into the 7th seed at 9-7.

The moronia is out in full force.
Evans, a future hall of famer, celebrates, Douchebags can’t find anything good in it, gotta go for the angle with the rusty edge, Cretins.

Stephen Gostkowski got cut…
Meanwhile we have a kicker that lost us 2 games last year…
I’m not anti-Gay, but kickers play a long long time. Even at 36-years old Gostkowski could legit play another 5 years with probably no drop in production.
Man… that’s a tough call. I *think* Gay will be just fine, but with a veteran kicker who has made some big kicks, if you’re going all in that seems like the guy you go with as opposed to a guy mental issues who has never made a game winning kick in his life, at any level.
March 24th, 2020 at 3:00 am
Of course he’s happy. He’s got a legitimately good (not great anymore, but good) quarterback throwing him the ball. If we draft one with promise to take over in the future and get a legit backup, he might bust open another bottle. I know I will. 😜
March 24th, 2020 at 4:55 am
Never been much of an Evans fan after he started kneeling during the anthem and the way he wines and gets moody if he doesn’t get the ball. I’ll really be looking forward to Brady chewing him out a couple times to see how he takes it. The dude has all the talent in the world no doubt. Now Godwin on the other hand is the real deal. He’s my favorite Buccaneer and I hope he evolves into a leader this year because he’s the perfect example to follow.
March 24th, 2020 at 4:57 am
Evans has had 1,000 yard seasons every single years he’s been in the NFL, including when Josh McKown was throwing to him as a rookie. So that is basically two losing QBs who have every thrown him the football in the NFL. He now gets the best. We will not only see Evans likely have his best season yet, even with Godwin on the other side, but his yards-after-catch will go up because he finally has an accurate passer throwing to him. It will be a fun new dimension for Evans; of course he’s glad to be out from under Winston and with the GOAT.
March 24th, 2020 at 5:00 am
Matt, agreed. All I want from Evans is to have him perform and don’t subject me to his own intoerance. His Dixie-Chicking it up in such an ignorant way meant that personally, I don’t like him. I think he’s learned his lesson, as have so many NFL players who use the brand to protest.
March 24th, 2020 at 5:04 am
Rod, agree it would be nice to get Ghost here. He probably wouldn’t charge much. Yeah, 36, but look at Bryant and Gould.
March 24th, 2020 at 5:19 am
Still talking about a damn protest? Im convinced you guys are all idiots. One reason tom came here (besides no one else offering him anything) was because of Mike Evans being an elite receiver. And you idiots are talking about him protesting…… protest deez
March 24th, 2020 at 5:39 am
Let’s get one thing straight..every man will do what he thinks is right and what keeps his mind focused on the right thing for him not other people but for him!!…..be it protesting, kneeling or whatever..just because some of you hated it didn’t make it wrong…some of you need to get your mind set with the times, you can’t tell grown people how to feel…how to walk in their life…when to kneel…where to protest…we are moving forward…..not with that again sh*t.
March 24th, 2020 at 5:51 am
I didn’t like the Evans protest but he stopped quickly so I respect him for correcting his error….and yes, it was an error…..he’s on company time, not his own.
As far as his receiving…….unquestionably a stud….and if he is hit in stride he will get more YAC…….it seemed to me that he was either heading out of bounds or had to wait for the ball or dive for it and there was a tackler on him.
I’m very optimistic about the Brady/Evans hookup….

You don’t get to do whatever you want at work, when you are representing and playing for someone else. When you are supposed. Go ahead a live your words. Next time you are riding around on that garbage truck, jump off at a stop light and start acting like a flag burning, foot stopping, fist raising hooligant…and see where that gets you with your job.

^^^Do all that stuff on your own time…free to do tha of course.^^^
March 24th, 2020 at 8:26 am
Big Hog, yeah the Trump boys love their boy and follow his lead. Kneeling in protest bad, dodging the draft with fake bone spurs is A-OK with them though.
March 24th, 2020 at 8:26 am
All of the Buc “fans” calling out Evans for doing what he believes is right, are the worst kind of fan. They are probably Trump voters too so they aren’t known for being the smartest people in the world.

Mike Evans will think he died and went to Heaven, once he starts catching balls from Tom Brady.
Brady is much more accurate, so no longer will Mike be reaching for balls.
March 24th, 2020 at 8:35 am
LOL Chan! Preach!
March 24th, 2020 at 8:40 am
Or he was doing what most of the rest were doing…
and trying to KILL the stress of what’s going on right now.

I agree. I appreciated the fact that the MINUTE Mike realized that his actions were insulting military families (in a military town)… which was not really his intent… he had the guts to STOP. — And that took guts too, as you saw others that continued to do it because they felt that they had to.
I like Mike a lot, and am very glad that he is here.
March 24th, 2020 at 8:55 am
Hethrew 30 …At every protest I saw by the players …no one acted like that …they kneeled in a dignified, peaceful and humble manner…yet you still BIG MAD!…GO BUCS!!!!
March 24th, 2020 at 8:55 am
(really NOT his intent)
March 24th, 2020 at 9:01 am
Bucsfan951…it’s peeps like you that can’t let Winston go…not the other way around. I don’t see anyone supporting or defending Winston hardly ever in here anymore. Yet some of you can’t let him go.
Let him go…or get help!
March 24th, 2020 at 9:07 am
PREACH CHAN!!!!!!!!
who cares if its on “company time”…
the company is operating in a free country….
standing up for what you believe in doesnt have boundaries….
GO BUCS!!!!!
March 24th, 2020 at 9:11 am
87 you must not read much of the comments then. They’re ALWAYS talking about JW!
But I will week that help you said I should get. I appreciate your concern
March 24th, 2020 at 9:12 am
Meanwhile, XFL QBs are getting jobs in the NFL before Jameis.
March 24th, 2020 at 9:15 am
Mike took a knee, heard how it was being interpreted in his fanbase and stopped. That’s a man with a social conscience, an open mind and the character to change course. Those kind of men are few and far between nowadays… get off his back. He’s my WR1 and an inspiration!
March 24th, 2020 at 9:39 am
I’ll never settle that take a knee issue but I am a Vietnam Vet and so I feel I’ve earned the right to speak about “love of country”.
First Donald Trump can go eff himself…as a white dude I had not one but TWO opportunities to avoid the draft actually a third would have been stay in school.
Coulda gone to the reserves or national guard.
I was NOT wealthy enough to have a bought and paid for doc lie to my draft board. I did NOT have the opportunity to chase skirts at Studio 50 in NYC.
And how people can slam black players for RESPECTFULLY expressing their opinion yet let some freaking fat loser defame a true war hero who spent so many years in the Hanoi Hilton just blows my mind!!!
For those who didn’t get the memo…kneeling was not the first thing Capernik did…he simply sat on the bench. A MILITARY VET told him that simply kneeling was far better because that’s what VETS did in respect for their fallen comrades. He told Cap that was far more respectful than sitting during our Anthem…I agree.
I certainly accept the argument that the Bucs are a profit driven organization..as they should be…and have a right to regulate their employees behavior while they are representing the organization. Mike is a smart man and understood this part of the equation.
But the “patriotism” canard is just a bridge too far. I LOVE my country…am totally grateful for all it’s provided me but I didn’t sign up to fight for a song…or a piece of cloth but rather for the ideals our nation represents.
March 24th, 2020 at 9:44 am
WestChap, wonderfully said, sir.
March 24th, 2020 at 9:59 am
Bucsfan951…who and where? Ndog? There’s 1.
I read all the comments…and I always see you and the likes of you worried about Winston nuthuggers and guzzlers more than anything else.
It’s the other side of the debates that can’t let Winston go. Not his defenders.
I’ll continue to point it out of you like….not just you but many others…
March 24th, 2020 at 10:05 am
You can point it out all you want. What ever helps you get through your quarantined days.
Doesn’t bother me one bit. But I’m going to bet your not so I’ll move on…
March 24th, 2020 at 10:31 am
How many morons does it take to ruin a thread?
March 24th, 2020 at 11:06 am
BigHog- Well said all of it. “…every man will do what he thinks is right and what keeps his mind focused on the right thing for him not other people but for him!!…we are moving forward…..not with that again sh*t..”
March 24th, 2020 at 11:28 am
WestChap “Mike took a knee, heard how it was being interpreted in his fanbase and stopped. That’s a man with a social conscience, an open mind and the character to change course. Those kind of men are few and far between nowadays…” Right on! With this too.
Tough call for folks on the choice of, location of any social protest in America today. IMHO it shouldn’t be but is.
Glad ME13 is on our team, along with GW12 what an awesome WR tandem. I am very excited to see how they do this season.
March 24th, 2020 at 11:28 am
Funny how i see the trolls commenting on how some people cant stop talking about jameis. You trolls are the ONLY ones talking about him. He still lives in your heads rent free. Move on for christs sake.
March 24th, 2020 at 11:34 am
Thank you for your service stpetebucsfan! Very well said. I totally agree. So damn mind blowing is it not?
March 24th, 2020 at 11:40 am
matt,you still mad because he knell three years ago,mike is a good person an gives his time an money in the tampa bay area and his home town,let it go.
March 24th, 2020 at 12:21 pm
Thanks RR.
I’m honestly embarrassed when people thank me for my service because it was behind a giant berm…with barb wire out front…some of my brothers went outside those walls into the jungle…some flew over those jungles with SAM’s ready to kill or put them in the Hanoi Hilton…those are the guys who deserve our thanks..guys like D.R.
But now I’ve had the chance to return gratitude thanks to Governor Cuomo’s great advice.
Went shopping to get the essentials…thanks heavens we have enough TP already…Wal Mart totally out…but now when I pass workers in Wal Mart and in particular…clerks at checkouts who handle money…Covid infected money? I tell them what I’ve heard for 50 years.
Thanks for your service out here on the front lines. We all APPRECIATE you!

“How many morons does it take to ruin a thread?”
I suspect that is a rhetorical question but may I answer anyway.
Depends how good you are with your scroll wheel or finger to move right past those comments.
I’ve gotten pretty good at it.
March 24th, 2020 at 12:54 pm
@StPete – the Joe’s for some reason, seem to attract a lot of Dotards. it’s weird.
March 24th, 2020 at 2:50 pm
I’m hopin our Kool-Aid stays down and does not..come back up in our faces. This franchise is so desperate. We got maybe 2 yrs. We shall see. Having a shot of Tequilla..wishing us the best.
