“Outlook Good”

October 18th, 2024

So will Mike Evans play Monday night on his bad hamstring?

It’s seems he’s trending that way.

Evans used to be a regular guest on The Rich Eisen Show and sort of disappeared from there for years. He returned today.

Evans was asked point blank if he’s play Monday night against the Ravens and replied that he’d have to check with his magic 8-ball. Then Evans said, “outlook good, outlook good.”

Joe realizes the Bucs want the Ravens thinking Evans will play, But after watching everything Evans for 10 years, Joe has a feeling Evans was being sincere, as in the outlook is good.

    I asked my Magic 8 ball if the Bucs will win. It said Don’t count on it.

  2. heyjude Says:

    Yay! Evans is so witty. Love it!

  3. Stillabucsfan Says:

    Even just as a decoy, he’s so crucial. It’ll be nice to have Palmer and McMillan for the game as well, let’s go expose Baltimore’s pass defense 🏴‍☠️🏴‍☠️🏴‍☠️🏴‍☠️🏴‍☠️

    i’m totally missing good me13 games…

    am i the only bucs fan wanting to see mike go crazy out there on some defenses…!

    waiting for mike to go off !

  5. LakelandBuc Says:

    The Bucs should give Devin Culp a look, he has the size, the speed. He can’t do any worse than the TEs, WRs, other than ME and CG!

  6. Fred McNeil Says:

    I’ve never known ME13 to be dishonest. I believe him too.

  7. Fred McNeil Says:

    Irish mist: I don’t have a magic 8 ball. (Sniff sniff). My Ouija board says they win.

  8. infomeplease Says:

    At somepoint during the past 5 seasons ME13 has played with a bad hamstring. I don’t know how he manages. Last Sunday he had to surrender to it for most of the game. Hopefully he is able to go at least 80% on MNF! If not next man up!

  9. Oviedo Jim Says:

    As my buddy Brookiyn Miguel always says “Cut the “BS”. Evans will play.

  10. orlbucfan Says:

    If the Bucs win, it will be with an unleashed offense called by a smart OC. ME13 needs to rest. I still can’t believe Baltimore has the second worse passing defense in the NFL.

    IrishMist

    “Faith and Begorrah” we can’t give up yet. BTW am I mistaken or do you actually live in Ireland.

    When I reached my 75th birthday I swam 3000 yards and got a tattoo describing how I did it.

    On my thigh is a beautiful Irish 4 leaf clover with an inscription “Luck of the Irish”
    I take no credit for swimming, lifting or any of that stuff. I know WHY I do it but candidly I do not know how. So I write it off to my Irish luck!

    And didn’t man once say it’s better to be lucky than good. That’s been my life!

  12. Ol' Boy Says:

    I’m hoping Evans is in there. I read an article on SI talking about the matchup and Harbough’s seems to have real (and rightfully so) concern with covering Mike and Chris. Ravens have second worst pass defense and I would love to see 13 and 14 feast

  13. Bucs4Ever Says:

    @orlbucfan – that is bc they have the best run d in the league. They also have the lead a lot so teams have to pass. They make you one dimensional.

  14. Bucswin! Says:

    15-2

  15. GP Says:

    If we light it up with the passing game in the first half, we have a decent chance of winning.
    Set up the run with the pass

  16. richbucsfan Says:

    Are you predicting the score of the game?

  17. Kenton Smith Says:

    If he can play it makes our team better. Even if he doesn’t catch a pass. He doesn’t need to get many snaps, he’ll be giving full effort even if he’s not fully fit. Because he is a leader on this team and he’s gonna pull whatever load he’s able to pull. Palmer and McMillan and Tucker and Irving and the kids will see what Mike is doing. They will be inspired to do more. Voila! Mike makes them better. That’s why he’s great.

  18. Boss Says:

    If mike stays in we lose. Get up quick, hold Lamar and pound on the ground….provided the run game is working/cone can work his magic playbook.

    He can borrow the waterboys play book if needed.

  19. Tiff, Okla,Bake, Bucs 4 life Says:

    Irishmist, think on our precious Bucs announcer 4 our games

    BUCS WIN BUCS WIN BUCS WIN¡!!!!!!!!!

    How can you say this when they have a terrible pass defense and our offense has been at its best when we throw? Have you watched any Bucs games?

  21. Beeej Says:

    115 yards or so, Mikey back on track

  22. unbelievable Says:

    You guys still haven’t leaves that “Boss” is just an idiot? Oh well, sooner or later.

  23. GP Says:

    Boss is a saints fan

  24. ATLBUC Says:

    The only reason 13 was out there was as a decoy. That’s good but if he needs to sit out to get to 100%, sit em

  25. Oneilbuc Says:

    Man I hope we win this game!! This is a statement game let’s go bucs!!

  26. Dave Pear Says:

    I’m glad Mike has a magic 8 ball. He .should give it to Todd to help improve his game. Management decisions.

  27. White Tiger Says:

    Actually, I kinda hope he rests that hammy. Having Mike at 100% against Atlanta & San Francisco would be more valuable than winning a meaningless game against a non-conference game.

  28. BA’s Red Pen Says:

    Go get Maxx Crosby.

  29. garro Says:

    They have tried using MIke as the designated decoy just to draw the double coverage before. It has had limited success. If he is not 100% I hope they rest him. It’s a long season and we got to beat the snot out of Atlanta.

    Sheppard and Miller have big days this week!

    Go Bucs!

  30. Beeej Says:

    He snagged a p.i. from Lattimore last week for 25 yards or so

  31. Lefty Says:

    Give Mike the rest..ATL game is sooo much more important. This is an AFC opponent – win or lose, not a huge deal. If Bucs don’t beat Falcons, ATL goes to 4-0 in the division and Team Tampa falls to 1-2 with likely no shot of recovering.

  32. Bartow Buc Says:

    I predict Evans will play and score 2 touchdowns!!
    Still hoping White, Buc and Tuc will bring the 3 headed run attack and pound that rock !!

    Go Bucs !! LG !!
