<r>Buccaneers All-World left tackle Tristan Wirfs is not attending OTAs this spring until things change. That’s the word from Jeremy Fowler of ESPN, via his X account. Fowler said Wirfs doesn’t want to risk injury as he negotiates a contract […] The post <URL url="https://www.joebucsfan.com/2024/05/...

<r>Good thing the Bucs kept Bucco Bruce Arians’ famous golf cart. Bucs coach Todd Bowles underwent knee replacement surgery last week yet that can’t keep him away from Bucs OTAs and off the practice fields behind One Buc Palace. Though […] The post <URL url="https://www.joebucsfan.com/2024/05/todd-b...

<r>Underwear football was in full swing at a toasty Bucs practice Tuesday morning. No, no Tristan Wirfs. Joe doesn’t blame him. He witnessed first-hand what happened to Ryan Jensen two years ago. And it’s not like Wirfs, who is at […] The post <URL url="https://www.joebucsfan.com/2024/05/practice-no...

<r>Joe always pays a little extra attention when Tampa native (Alonso High) and eight-year NFL vet Leger Douzable, who played for Todd Bowles with the Jets, is talking Bucs football.

<r>It’s basically become a copy/paste excuse line. Joe has seen so many analysts this month typing about the Bucs that using the same narrative so often Joe is tired of reading it. And it’s not yet June. “The Bucs did […] The post <URL url="https://www.joebucsfan.com/2024/05/the-shaq-barrett-devin-w...

<r>As Joe has pointed out, if you believe in Warren Sharp’s rest edge, the Bucs are at a disadvantage this year. Sharp, the noted handicapper turned stathead, has a formula largely based on how much rest a team gets between […] The post <URL url="https://www.joebucsfan.com/2024/05/nfl-rest-edge-much...

<r>A tray of Hooters wings and their great salads, sandwiches and shrimp make for a heck of a lunch or dinner! Get it done! Locations are across the Bay area and online ordering is always easy from Joe’s great friends. The post <URL url="https://www.joebucsfan.com/2024/05/make-it-hooters-for-lunch-a...

<r>So Joe has spent a bunch of time digging into new Bucs offensive coordinator Liam Coen and what makes him tick. That’s had Joe listening to all kinds of Coen interviews over the years, and more.

<r>Antoine Winfield seems to always wear a smile on his face. He acknowledged that today. You’d smile too if you were the richest-paid defensive back, not just safety, in the NFL. A dream became a reality today for Winfield as […] The post <URL url="https://www.joebucsfan.com/2024/05/the-nfls-highes...
