Looking back on Bucs’ loss to L.A. Rams

November 25, 2020 general

Wednesday, 4 a.m. 5 Thoughts Sure, it’s the play-calling. I blame Bruce Arians for not being able to come up with a better plan for an offense that can’t block, can’t run and can’t catch the ball out of the backfield. 2. Todd Bowles, on the other hand, should be on the hot seat for […]

Late starts, good teams plague Bucs again

November 24, 2020 general

Tuesday, 4 a.m. For all the punchlines, for all the the suggestion that the Bucs are merely a team of stars struggling in the dark, perhaps the difference isn’t between day and night, after all. These days, perhaps the difference is between good and bad. The Tampa Bay Bucs lost, once again, to a team […]

Bucs try to light a candle in the darkness

November 23, 2020 general

Monday, 4 a.m. Random Thoughts: Do you think the Bucs would play better in prime time games if the coaches put a Nite Light in every player’s locker, just to scare away the monsters under the bed. — I like Dabo Swinney, but he’s off-base in suggesting that the Clemson game against FSU was canceled […]

Gators’ Trask stays hot in ‘ho-hum’ victory

November 22, 2020 general

Sunday, 4 a.m. They can score faster than you. They can score more repeatedly. They can score until their opponent grows weary of lining up for extra points. Pretty much, that is the game plan of the Florida Gators. Florida scored often enough to get a lethargic 38-17 victory over the winless Vanderbilt Commodores Saturday […]

Bucs to face sturdier Rams’ defense

November 21, 2020 general

Saturday, 4 a.m. When last they met, the Los Angeles Ram scored 40 on the Tampa Bay Bucs. They were fast, they were quick, and they were explosive. The Bucs, however, got 55. They had 385 yards and four touchdowns from then-quarterback Jameis Winston. Pretty much, that tells you all you need to know about […]

Bucs’ Arians grows tired of talking about Brown

November 20, 2020 general

Friday, 4 a.m. Bruce Arians is tired of talking about Antonio Brown. And the world answers: Get used to it. Arians, once again, was asked about Brown and his most recent incident where he allegedly threw a bicycle and destroyed a camera eight days before being signed by the Buc. The league is investigating it, […]

Who should make the Pro Bowl for Bucs?

November 19, 2020 general

Thursday, 4 a.m. There are a lot of things wrong with the Pro Bowl, a grand excuse for player to dress up and act like they’re playing football. In reality, it has as much to do with football as the movie “The Longest Yard.” But there is one cool thing about the Pro Bowl. Making […]

Bucs’ Jones has blossomed into a weapon

November 18, 2020 general

Wednesday, 4 p.m. The worst prognosticator in the world is your local weatherman. Despite all the radar, despite all the weather systems, that guy has zero idea of where a hurricane is going or where it will hit. It’s like God is throwing knuckleballs, and everything is a moving green screen. Me? I am second. […]

Looking back at the Bucs’ win over the Panthers

November 17, 2020 general

5 Thoughts I read where some people think that, despite his 300-yard game and three touchdowns,Tom Brady was “off” against the Panthers. Really? I think the problem is that, with Brady, we’ve come to expect perfection. He overthrows a deep receiver, and we want to remind everyone that we know how old he is. Just […]

Bucs rebound to beat Panthers in 2nd half

November 16, 2020 general

Monday, 4 a.m. They still are not as sharp as you would wish. They won big, but it wasn’t against the Saints. They had a fine time, but it wasn’t in prime time. On the other hand, the Bucs won Sunday. Can we return to sanity for a moment? Oh, for the last week, we […]
