We are back! A lot of stuff to cover that has happened this offseason and we touch on as much of it as we can.

We've got another draft under our belt. While Molly didn't get a single pick right, Ralph batted 1,000. The only player on his wishlist, OL Cody Mauch was scooped up by the Bucs in the second round. We moved up to acquire the NDSU tackle, who will likely play at guard for the Buccaneers. The Buccaneers went heavy defense this draft. Unsurprising gi…

The strategy is simple: the player must be from a southern school and projected to go near the Bucs pick. Molly likes OT Darnell Wright in the first round for his Jensen-like demeanor. OLB BJ Ojulari is Molly's pick in the second round. His high character was a major draw, in addition to his toolkit of moves. In the third round, Molly selects RB Ke…

Ralph and Molly discuss the latest happenings with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Devin White wants to be traded. Re-signings, new kicker, new offensive lineman. Where are they now with the Bucs secondary. Should Gerald McCoy be in the Ring of Honor? And some of these contracts are getting out of hand across the league. --- Support this podcast: https:/…

Dan Canales joins the Buccaneers as offensive coordinator. Canales was the quarterback coach at Seattle this year, assisting Geno Smith in the rehab of his career. It's a promotion for Canales, and as such we have no clue what the Buccaneers offense will look like. The Buccaneers will also cut Leonard Fournette and Donovan Smith, adding to the unce…

Both of us agree that this Super Bowl was pretty boring. The penalty that basically gave the Chiefs the win really summed up this season as a whole. What could have been an exciting game fizzled out in a bad way. Ralph discusses his thoughts on the Damar Hamlin situation and how it is incentivizing injuries. And what is going on with the Bucs offen…

Tom Brady announced his retirement this week, sending the Buccaneers back to the basement. QB coach Clyde Christiansen revealed Brady received news of his divorce during training camp and subsequently lost 15 pounds, which explains a lot about the season. It's disappointing Brady couldn't go out on top with a Super Bowl win, but the retirement was …

The Buccaneers offense certainly took a step back this season, but was Byron Leftwich to blame? We know Todd Bowles wanted more of an emphasis on the run game. Leftwich's offense is a vertical offense, proficient at long shots down the field as we saw in 2020 and 2021. It was never a running offense. Was Bowles asking too much? The result, as we sa…

For the third year in a row, the Buccaneers are playoff bound, and division champs for the second year in a row. The team that showed up against Carolina is a team we can proudly ride to the playoffs (and Super Bowl). The Bucs week 17 matchup against the Panthers was hard fought by both teams. Both looked like they wanted a win. The Buccaneers defe…

This is for all the marbles - the NFC South title, a playoff berth. While we wouldn't technically be out of the playoff running with a loss, our fate would no longer be in our hands. The Panthers are coming off a record-breaking win over the Lions, where they rushed for a franchise-record 320 yards. The team has gone from rebuild mode to playoff co…

The Buccaneers defeated the mighty Arizona Cardinals in overtime on Christmas. The Bucs once again struggled on third downs, wide receiver connections, and tackling. Tom Brady didn't have the best game, throwing two interceptions. Nevertheless, we persevered and got the W. This week the Buccaneers need a win against the Carolina Panthers to secure …

There's no other way to say it: The 49ers loss was a better team putting the beatdown on the Buccaneers. Our blocking is bad, the tackling not much better. Brady threw short, inaccurate passes. The playcalling involved way too many screens. Our receivers got no separation. The defense got no pressure. All-in-all, it felt like we showed up and that …

The Buccaneers loss to the 3-7 Browns is a tough pill to swallow. The team played well, only to break down by the 4th quarter, giving the Browns the opportunity to tie the game and take us to overtime. By then, the momentum was in their favor and they came out victorious. There is a plethora of targets to blame, including the coaches, players, mana…

We first delve into Raph's all-22 analysis of the Seattle Seahawks victory. Many of the Buccaneers' troubles through the early part of the season were rectified this game - the poor tackling, the dropped passes, the lack of physicality, uncalled penalties working in the Bucs' favor. The Seahawks didn't just lay there and take it by any stretch of t…

Germany was going off for the Buccaneers as they overtook the Seattle Seahawks abroad. The Buccaneers put a complete game together and stayed strong throughout. The Seahawks, on the other hand, looked flat. The Bucs dominated the Seahawks in nearly every metric except penalties.The Bucs will go into the bye week with a W. --- Support this podcast: …

Ralph's knee jerk reaction to the Ravens game fell apart after review of the all-22. While everyone, including Ralph, piled on the defense and Devin White, the tape showed them fighting to the very end. The Ravens offense, and Lamar Jackson in particular, just bested us. But it was a fight. The offense is a different story. It seems everyone is in …

The loss to Carolina is a HEAD SCRATCHER. What is our problem on 3rd/4th and short? Why can't we score? Why are our receivers dropping balls? Where are our leaders? Why can't our defense generate turnovers or stop the run? Fans, we have no answers. We're just as perplexed as you are. It's early enough in the season that it could get resolved, but t…

The Carolina Panthers are a dumpster fire and present the perfect opportunity for the Bucs to get the awful taste of the Steelers loss out of their mouths. Not only are the Panthers dealing with an interim coaching staff, they've jettisoned their best player RB Christian McCaffrey to the San Francisco 49ers. The most challenging part of this matchu…

What a disappointing loss. The Buccaneers should have taken this victory easily, but the Steelers, simply put, wanted it more. Bucs couldn't convert on short yardage situations, and on the other side of the ball couldn't get stops when needed. It was a game of inches where every play mattered. The boo birds are out in full force after having been r…

The Buccaneers have historically struggled against rookie quarterbacks jettisoned to a starting position only weeks or sometimes days before our matchup. However, Kenny Pickett will face a different Buccaneers team. The Buccaneers will dominate the Steelers the same way the Bills did: with unstoppable deep threats, namely Mike Evans and Chris Godwi…

The Buccaneers rise to the top of the NFC South with their win over the Atlanta Falcons Sunday. Leonard Fournette had a great game, topping not just the rushing stats but the receiving stats as well. The Buccaneers defense also clocked five sacks on Marcus Mariota. This game, however, is in the headlines for another reason: the trash officiating. T…

Did you know the difference between the Bucs and the Chiefs in the 2020 Super Bowl was a toe? That's right, folks. Chris Collinsworth gave us the lowdown during Sunday night's game. The next Michael Jordan, aka Pat Mahomes, would have had that Super Bowl ring if it weren't for his pesky toe! Tom Brady is a mere afterthought when Pat Mahomes is on t…

This was a close game where the defense was able to hold Aaron Rodgers and the Packers offense to only 14 points. The Buccaneers offense was incohesive. The absence of their top three receivers was felt. Nevertheless, the offense nearly came back to tie the game and take the Packers to overtime. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.…

Ralph and Molly not only give their thoughts on the Bucs win over the Saints in week 2 but they also cover the Dallas beatdown in week 1. All of this while also regaling of our adventures moving to the new house. Nothing is set up yet for recording, so this was done in a makeshift manner. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod…

The Buccaneer will face their first regular season opponent this week when they travel to Dallas to face the Cowboys. The Cowboys are a slightly weaker team than the one the Bucs faced in the 2021 season opener, having lost LT Tyron Smith to a devastating hamstring injury. Rookie OT Tyler Smith will start in his stead. In addition, the team release…

We finally got a taste of what the Buccaneers will look like this upcoming season, with both the starting offense and defense making their debuts. It was a welcome relief from the sub-par football we've seen from the depth guys. The Buccaneers offense drove down the field, putting three points on the board. The defense was maybe more impressive, ho…

The Buccaneers performance against the Tennessee Titans in the second preseason game left something to desired. In contrast to the first game where the receivers and tight ends really shone, there was no player or position group that stood out in the second week. We saw some notable starters in this game, including Leonard Fournette, S Mike Edwards…

The Dolphins barely squeaked out a win over the Buccaneers in Week 1 of preseason. Overall, the Bucs performance was satisfactory, with the exception of a few freak plays that put the Dolphins ahead. Kyle Trask fumbled the ball, which could have just as easily been called an incomplete pass. The Dolphins got a freak interception on a checkdown pass…

The Buccaneers kicked off joint practices with the Dolphins today. Things got chippy quite a few times, a common occurrence in joint practices. The Bucs will face the Dolphins at home this Saturday. We probably won't see starters, but could get a peak at the offensive line prospects, as well as the new defensive line. How will the Bucs fare this se…

Happy birthday to Ralph! He can now buy that Julio Jones jersey he's always wanted. A mix of Mike Evans and Chris Godwin, Jones can make an impact in a deep wide receiver room. His hamstring injury is healed and he's ready to chase a ring with Tom Brady. Other teams interested in signing Jones included the Packers, the Saints and the Colts. A call …

Rob Gronkowski has officially announced his retirement. The legend put out a statement on social media. His absence leaves a huge hole in the Buccaneers offense that cannot be filled. Ndamukong Suh said on an appearance on ESPNLive's NFL2 that it was unlikely he was returning to the Buccaneers: "It looks like the Bucs are out of the picture." He wa…

The Buccaneers surprised the fanbase with the addition of free agent Akiem Hicks. The signing basically closes the door on the return of Ndamukong Suh as cap space was already limited. Bears fans are disappointed by the loss. Hicks' attitude may replace JPP's presence in the Bucs locker room. WR Travis Jonsen was arrested for DUI over the Memorial …

The NFL released the schedule last week. The Buccaneers have five primetime games once again, although theirs is one of the toughest. The schedule includes a 9:30 a.m. game in Munich, Germany against the Seahawks. We'll match up against the NFC West and AFC North this year. Ndamukong Suh may sign with another team this year. The Browns and Raiders …

The Buccaneers shocked Bucs nation by trading away their first-round pick in the NFL Draft to the Jacksonville Jaguars. They gained the first overall pick in the second round and selected DE Logan Hall. In another surprising move, they picked up G Luke Goedeke at with the 57th pick. In Round 3, they snagged RB Rachaad White. With the first pick in …

Jason Licht and Co. have done a phenomenal job in years past of building a team and acquiring depth that we are now, for the second year in a row, drafting the best available player rather than drafting for need. As you know, we do not follow college and therefore are ill equipped to evaluate players coming into the draft. However, we can look at t…

Ralph is uneasy about the coaching change at One Buc Place. Between Todd Bowles' win-loss record and penchant for firing underlings, Ralph is hesitant about celebrating the move. Molly would agree but for the culture and staff installed under Bruce Arians being mostly in-tact. How much say will Bowles have in the day-to-day of the team, including t…

In a move that shocked the football world, Bruce Arians announced he would step down as head coach of the Buccaneers, moving to a position in the front office. Todd Bowles will secede him as the new head coach. The Buccaneers made it official by giving Bowles a five-year contract. BA will stay within the organization as a Senior Football Consultant…

Free agency continues and the Buccaneers have locked up two key free agents: Leonard Fournette and William Gholston. They've also signed OL Fred Johnson, a former Bengal, and T Josh Wells. The Bucs have not yet reached agreements with Ndamukong Suh and Rob Gronkowski, although they are reportedly in talks with both. JPP still remains a free agent, …

This free agency period is bananas. The Buccaneers re-sign stud C Ryan Jensen. They bring in Shaq Mason in a trade with the Patriots (an absolute steal, btw). The Bucs sign S Logan Ryan, a Tom Brady guy. They also bring in Russell Gage with a phone call from Tom. Breshad Perriman is back. Chris Godwin is now under contract. Shaq Barrett and Mike Ev…

Free agency starts with a bang for the Bucs, who not only get the GOAT back in a surprise un-retiring, but also retained star Center Ryan Jensen AND CB Carlton Davis. Both players were highly sought-after in free agency for their positions. The Buccaneers have not worked out a deal with S Jordan Whitehead, who is being eyed by Bucs fans as the next…

The deadline to franchise tag players is tomorrow. Who will the Bucs tag? Chris Godwin? Carlton Davis? Jordan Whitehead? Buccaneers make some minor changes to their staff, including Larry Foote moving from OLB coach to ILB coach. Tom Brady has made cryptic comments about his future in the NFL. SO YOU'RE TELLING US THERE'S STILL A CHANCE??? No. Ther…

We have some sad personal news. The Buccaneers lose another key piece in Ali Marpet, who announced his retirement Sunday after seven years with the team. It makes it all the more vital we re-sign free agents Alex Cappa, Aaron Stinnie and Ryan Jensen to ensure continuity on the offensive line. Buccaneers staff writer and social media personality Car…

The Super Bowl happened... That's about it. It was kind of boring. We expected a comeback by Joe Burrow, but the game ended on some bizarre penalties and then a 4 & out by Cincinnati.

The Rams' final drive was a disappointing showing by the Buccaneers' defense (like we had to tell you that). However, it wasn't the 40+ yard bomb to Cooper Kupp, but the play before that sealed the Bucs' fate. SMB was covering Kupp and inexplicably fell down, leaving Mike Edwards to move up and tackle Kupp. It was Jamel Dean's effort, or lack there…

What a heartbreaking rollercoaster that was. Until late in the third quarter, it seemed like the Buccaneers were doomed. But the defense kept us in it, and in it, and in it. The offense made plays when it needed them and put enough points on the board to tie us up. Then Matt Gay struck with an assist by Cooper Kupp. The team may have been defeated,…

We faced the Rams in week 3 and it wasn't pretty for the Buccaneers. The Rams were more physical, Bucs receivers couldn't hang onto the ball, and the defense couldn't stop the Rams offense. But the Rams haven't seen the Playoff Buccaneers. They haven't seen the defensive backs who nearly had five picks last week. They haven't seen Suh, Vita and Bar…

Bucs are back to form. This game was really not even close. The Eagles managed some garbage time touchdowns in the fourth quarter, but in reality this was a trouncing by the Buccaneers. All the Bucs playoff opponents from last year experienced PTSD watching that game. With Dallas falling to the 49ers last night, the Bucs will face the winner of the…

Veteran Buccaneer fans know the pain of losing to the Eagles in the playoffs. It happened in the years before the Bucs made their Super Bowl appearance in 2003. It cost the team Tony Dungy. Ronde Barber righted the ship with his pick six in the NFC Championship. The victory took the Bucs to the Super Bowl, where they came away with the Lombardi. We…
