Contract year.

Unless Bucs right tackle Luke Goedeke has been telling people off the record he’s going launch Operation Shutdown like left tackle Tristan Wirfs did last year, Joe doesn’t understand the hyperventilating to extend Goedeke’s contract. (more…)

Bucs offensive assistant coach Josh Grizzard.

So once upon a time in 2009, when the Bucs were enduring excruciating growing pains, the team hired an offensive coordinator to call plays — except he literally couldn’t do it. (more…)

Alabama ILB Jihaad Campbell.

For Joe, there is no doubt where the Bucs’ biggest roster hole is. (more…)

Bucs QB coach Thad Lewis.

So which in-house offensive coordinator candidate do the Bucs want to replace Liam Coen, if any?

Well, at least one is garnering a lot of interest. (more…)

Props from Todd Bowles.

Joe knows every Bucs fan and their brother is still fixated on the Liam Coen saga and who the Bucs will choose to replace him. (more…)
