Bucs GM Jason Licht watches his team yesterday, knowing there’s enough talent to perform better.
So as expected last night, the 49ers (4-4) cruised to victory against the Cowboys (3-4) after taking a 27-10 lead into the fourth quarter.
That means the combined record of the Bucs’ seven post-bye opponents fell to 15-36. [read more]

The Bucs have a bunch of star players out. The defense is hot garbage. Let’s try to talk through these troubled times, shall we? [read more]
Lach Murdoch, sultan of FOX Corp, oversees all FOX TV properties, is worth some $3.3 billion, but his outfit can’t afford working pylon cams at NFL games?
This is a very bitter pill to swallow since the Bucs lost by five points yesterday to the Dixie Chicks on Creamsicle Sunday. [read more]
Todd Bowles.
The Bucs defense is killing this team and it has the same scent as the defenses under lousy Lovie Smith and Mike Smith. [read more]

There’s something about the Buccaneer defense that brings out the best in Kirk Cousins.
It doesn’t matter what uniform Cousins is wearing, he continues to wear out Tampa Bay.
Although he didn’t shout out “You like that?’ when he walked toward Atlanta’s locker room Sunday, that collective groan from Buc Nation made the question moot as Cousins shredded the Bucs for the second time in 24 days. It marked the second time this season that Cousins threw four TD passes against Tampa Bay’s reeling defense. [read more]
Joe is only hurling facts here. [read more]
Bucs coach Todd Bowles.
OK, Bucs coach Todd Bowles often likes to blame rotten play and mistakes by his defense on “communication.” Joe smells nonsense. [read more]
Something weird is going on with the defense and Joe can’t figure it out. [read more]
It’s almost ironic that on a day that saw Mr. Cleveland, Jameis Winston, put the Browns on his back for a huge interception-free win against the Ravens, Baker Mayfield channeled the ghost of Jameis and threw two more bad interceptions in a Bucs loss. [read more]
Solid gameplan.
Think Kirk Cousins and the Dixie Chicks riddled the Bucs defense? Oh, they did. Then there was the other side of the coin. [read more]
Other than “why?” Joe’s not sure what to ask or say about the Bucs’ failed fake punt today from their own 38 yard line.
Perhaps Bucs coaches are as scared of their defense as Joe is. [read more]
Misused too?
This is really starting to get under Joe’s skin. In fact, Joe has had enough! [read more]
Rough day for Team Glazer and NFL owners.
Joe won’t go too wild here without more clarification, but it was made very clear on today’s FOX broadcast of the Bucs-Falcons game that there was no goal-line replay available on the controversial touchdown by Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts. [read more]
Defense doesn’t rule.
There is no more sugarcoating this. The Bucs defense, built, molded and led by a defensive-minded coach, is lousy Lovie Smith/Mike Smith bad. [read more]
The Bucs are significantly underachieving. [read more]
The Bucs lost today to Atlanta, but more troubling is they were exposed as absolute frauds on defense and on special teams.
Tampa Bay’s shot at a fourth consecutive division crown is now in peril. [read more]
Must-win division game at The Licht House with the Bucs and Falcons each sporting 4-3 records and Atlanta holding the tiebreaker edge as of this morning (because they beat the Bucs three weeks ago).
Comment all game long with fellow fans and a few annoying Falcons fans.
Play nice. Go Bucs!
So here come the Falcons in what’s almost a must-win game for the Bucs’ chances of winning the NFC South for the fourth consecutive season.
It’s a day to lean on your franchise quarterback. [read more]
