After a scary start that is apropos for Halloween, the Buccaneers woke up from the dead and thrashed the horrid San Francisco 49ers 34-17. It was a great three quarters of football for the men in Pewter, but what about that start? What I Got Right The first 15 minutes were about as bad of …Read More

DT Clinton McDonald did indeed have …Read More
Join with me my WhatTheBucers, what a difference a win makes! We talked about it after the Tampa Bay Buccaneers shat the bed stumbled against the Rams (who, as it turns out, aren’t half bad).

Well that was a sadly predictable outcome was it not? It’s not that the Buccaneers lost to Denver. Frankly, Tampa Bay isn’t in the Broncos’ league right now. It’s how they did it.

Of course, there are some examples here and there throughout history. In 2011, Cam Newton threw for 4,051 yards and 21 touchdowns as a rookie then slightly underperformed …Read More
Photo Credit: Cliff Welch / Pewter ReportIt’s been a long drought, hasn’t it Bucs fans? Tampa Bay hasn’t sniffed post season play since January 6th, 2008 – a 24-14 loss to the eventual Super Bowl Champion in the playoffs and team of destiny New York Giants (that was the 18-1 dethroning of the Patriots year). The closest the Bucs have gotten to …Read More
