Todd Bowles gets a powerful endorsement.

Newer Tampa Bay fans probably don’t realize that Shelton Quarles was a Buccaneers starter (1999-2006) at linebacker for the one of the greatest defenses the NFL has ever seen. (more…)

More.

Joe is on record claiming the Bucs need three new inside linebackers this offseason. The Bucs last year had zero depth at the position. (more…)

Coach him up, Coach.

Joe supposes these questions will linger until Al-Quadin Muhammad proves it wasn’t about his contract. (more…)

Return key to improvement?

Joe doesn’t know how anyone can objectively look at the Bucs roster before legal tampering began and after a week of free agency claim the team improved. (more…)

Successful.

BY IRA KAUFMAN

It started off poorly — and never improved.

Although the 2025 Bucs won their season opener at Atlanta, warning signs emerged for Todd Bowles and his young defense. (more…)

Don’t be quick to say new Bucs veteran linebacker Alex Anzalone signed with Tampa Bay because he has a year-round home and deep roots in area, including his wife being from Pinellas County.

That was Anzalone’s message on radio. (more…)

Healing newcomer.

So Joe has been wrestling with writing about the Bucs signing former Steelers special teams stud Miles Killebrew last week.

The guy turns 33 soon and had major knee surgery in late October. (more…)

Lavonte David comparison.

Whoa, hold up! (more…)

Joe is sharing this post for the growing numbers of moping Bucs fans. (more…)

Damning.

It would be one thing for Jamel Dean to say he left the Bucs because he felt his last chance to win another ring is getting away from the team where he won his first ring. (more…)

Not over til it’s over.

Keep hope alive? (more…)

Upgrade.

For the first couple of years Rachaad White was with the Bucs, it drove Joe bananas how White had terrible vision. (more…)

Free agent and former All-Pro Bills linebacker Matt Milano.

A friend of Todd Bowles was not selling the virtues of SirVocea Dennis last week. (more…)

Jamel Dean is always smiling. So it’s understandable that the former Bucs cornerback looked to be a very happy man with his new three-year, $36 million contract. (more…)
