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.

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]
