It’s time to move on.
There’s a chance that Jason Pierre-Paul’s latest health calamity won’t derail an accomplished career.at the age of 30. There’s a chance JPP rebounds from a fractured neck and reinforces his reputation as an impact pass rusher.

It’s time for a rush to judgment around these parts.
Somehow, some way, the 2019 Tampa Bay Buccaneers have to construct a credible ground game. It’s been missing in action since 2015, when an offensive coordinator named Dirk Koetter orchestrated a well-balanced attack that set a franchise record for total offense. (more…)

You start with the blazing 4.4 speed. Then you mix in the 28.5 tackles for loss, the 8.5 sacks, the 4 forced fumbles and the 3 interceptions.
Yes, Devin White has all the metrics a linebacker would want heading into an NFL draft. But the Bucs didn’t select White No. 5 overall simply because of his metrics. (more…)

The record will show that Gerald McCoy played his final game as a Buccaneer on Dec. 30, 2018 in a 34-32 home loss against Atlanta.
It was his 123rd start in pewter and, as usual, Tampa Bay’s defense was subpar, allowing the Falcons to roll up 27 first downs and 489 yards in the season finale. (more…)
