Has his team’s back.
Yeah, Gerald McCoy agrees, losing Mike Evans really, really stinks. (more…)

Has his team’s back.
Yeah, Gerald McCoy agrees, losing Mike Evans really, really stinks. (more…)

YAC doomed Bucs.
Yeah, the Bucs defense gave up big plays Monday night. But if you peel the onion skins back, there was a lot to like about the defense. (more…)

Passing chart vs. Lions.
Just looking at Baker Mayfield’s passing chart from Monday night in Detroit, passing wasn’t the problem when the Bucs tried to exploit the mismatches they had with the Lions’ secondary. (more…)

Lofty rookie grade.
Going through various sources, Joe still sees a fair number of folks who think Bucs receiver Emeka Egbuka is still a favorite for NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year. (more…)

This struck Joe because former Bucs running back LeSean “Shady” McCoy, the six-time Pro Bowler with the Bills and Eagles, was a notorious Baker Mayfield basher before this season. (more…)

Still a believer.
The way the Bucs’ offense got slapped around by a team that was both physical and motivated, do the Bucs still have a chance to make a Super Bowl run? (more…)

Talks offense.
Mere hours after the Lions’ defense seal-clubbed the Bucs offense before the eyes of the nation on Monday Night Football, Todd Bowles said he thinks changes will and should come to the offense. (more…)

Yes, Teddy Bridgewater made his first regular season appearance in a Buccaneers uniform last night. (more…)

So at his morning news conference today, Todd Bowles called out four Bucs missed tackles last night. (more…)

Haason Reddick looks on as YaYa Diaby strip-sacks Lions QB Jared Goff last night.
So Buccaneers edge rusher Haason Reddick left last night’s game with knee and ankle injuries and was seen taking a cart ride to the locker room. (more…)

Mike Evans lay prone on the turf of Ford Field after his injury and concussion Monday night.
Bucs quarterback Baker Mayfield and Hall of Fame receiver Mike Evans may be tighter than you think. (more…)

Joe was sickened by the officiating last night. Too much of it makes no sense, like Cade Otton getting stripped of a first down after two reviews that featured no clear evidence to overturn the Bucs’ new set of downs.
Yeah, Joe wrote about it earlier, but above photo is from the JoeBucsFan.com photo genius on the scene. The football is seen on its way to Mike Evans while the Lions defender is completely airborne and hanging on/clinging to Evans’ neck.
No flag!
Sadly, this is the play that left Evans with a concussion and a broken clavicle. The Bucs punted from their 40 yard line two plays later.

“Jamel, you’ve got 3 picks in 5 1/2 games. Just think about all that money you’ll earn next year.”
All Bucs cornerbacks were healthy last night for a change, along with starting safeties Antoine Winfield and Tykee Smith, fulfilling the offseason dream of Todd Bowles and Buccaneers Ring of Honor general manager Jason Licht. (more…)

Reaction from Todd Bowles.
Mike Evans went down with both a concussion and a broken clavicle against the Lions. And with that, what next? (more…)

Joe has an important reminder for the overly sad Bucs fans this morning. (more…)

Agent issues statement.
Some clarification surrounding the death of former Bucs All-Pro running back Doug Martin is beginning to filter out of the clouds. (more…)

Joe is going to try to keep this short not just because the Bucs got slapped around by the Lions, not just because Mike Evans’ Bucs’ future is in doubt, but it is in the wee hours of Tuesdayd. A gloomy morning it is. (more…)
