The Commanders aren’t blessed with many proven weapons, but they have one who is keeping Todd Bowles up at night. (more…)

Questionable.

UPDATED: Is it too early to start doing shots of bourbon? (more…)

Guardians caps can now be worn in games.

This offseason, the NFL made a ruling that players, if they so choose, can wear those dopey Guardian caps. (more…)

No respect for Bucs’ edge rush?

Joe is a burning bush kinda guy. Talk and hope are empty thoughts to Joe. Action and documentation mean something and hold real value. (more…)

Out.

The headline says it all. Third-year Bucs defensive lineman Logan Hall, a starter most of last year, won’t play in the season opener Sunday because of a bad foot.

Today, head coach Todd Bowles said it’s unclear when Hall will return as his rehab has been slow.

Bring on Will Gholston and Greg Gaines! Joe is not concerned.

Has believer at the four-letter.

Dan Graziano isn’t buying the John Elway Kirk Cousins hype. (more…)

PRESENTED BY

Seven snaps enough?

What can we expect from the Bucs on Sunday? It doesn’t seem that Liam Coen is fully sure. (more…)

Ex-Bucs QB Shaun King years ago at a Tampa Bay practice with general manager Jason Licht.

One of four quarterbacks to lead the Bucs to the NFC Championship game, Shaun King, is one of Joe’s favorite analysts.

Smart, and he’s always got angles not heared elsewhere. (more…)

Mike Evans is no chest-pounding gloater, but he let a little bit of that cocky side of him slip out to media yesterday. (more…)

Bucs OC Liam Coen

Joe remembers way back in 2022 with the Bucs offense simply woeful, then offensive (emphasis on “offensive”) coordinator Byron Leftwich, in his normal condescending if not outright lying way, got into a sparring session with a couple of reporters. (more…)

Offensive line chatter.

For all who think the Bucs’ offensive line is the root of all evil and is fully to blame for bird flu, climate change and Roger Goodell, Bucs offensive coordinator Liam Coen said yesterday the cavalry has arrived. (more…)

It’s not just him.

It seems those in authority making personnel decisions in NFL circles simply do not like the veteran quarterbacks in the NFC South. (more…)

About 10 days into training camp, picking a 2024 summer MVP would have been easy for Joe.

YaYa Diaby was looking bigger, stronger and more dominant than any other Buccaneer. (more…)

Fans don’t like ugly.

Face it, it’s human nature. We don’t like to look at ugly. How often do you see Roseanne Barr advertise goods on TV? How many dudes would prefer to sit next to Rosie O’Donnell on a plane instead of Kate Beckinsale, even in first class? (more…)

Mike Florio of NBC Sports.

While his NBC Sports colleague Chris Simms, the ex-Bucs quarterback, thinks the Bucs will miss the playoffs in January, NFL super insider Mike Florio is picking the Bucs to expand on their playoff push of last season. (more…)

Great injury report for the Bucs today, which includes kicker Chase McLaughlin back practicing after missing yesterday — officially because of “abdomen/illness.”

(It’s unclear if that was bad South Tampa sushi or a muscle injury of some sort.)

Only defensive lineman Logan Hall (foot) and Earnest Brown (ribs), a fourth-year veteran at the bottom of the roster, were out today. Everyone else was full-go.

Seemingly because of those injuries, the Bucs signed veteran DT Ben Stille off the Cardinals practice squad today.
