Tampa Bay Buccaneers news

  The #4 seeded Tampa Bay Buccaneers (8-9) season comes to an end as the #5 seeded Dallas Cowboys (12-5) routed the Bucs 31-14 at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, FL. The Bucs elimination in the postseason will be left with question marks❓❓Will Tom Brady retire from 🏈 or will he play for a 24th Season and try and win another Superbowl ring? Tom Brady decision to unretire after he retired after the 2021 season cost him his marriage to his ex-wife Gisele Bundchen. What ever Brady decides to do it's his call. As an organization we handled getting a QB successor to Brady poorly. We didn't look to try to develop Kyle Trask nor did we try to go after Baker Mayfield when we had a chance. We decided to bring back backup QB Blaine Gabbert. I felt that we put ourselves in a deep hole because the Carolina Panthers will try to go after Derek Carr or Jimmy Garoppolo.  The division will be wide open for Atlanta, Carolina, and New Orleans unless Tampa Bay make all the right moves during the ...

  The Tampa Bay Buccaneers won the division when they defeated the Carolina Panthers 30-24 at home in week 17 of the regular season. Tom Brady threw 3 TD passes all to Mike Evans and ran for a TD on a Quarterback sneak to help the Bucs secure the #4 seed and host a Wildcard in the playoffs. The Bucs eliminated the Panthers from the playoffs and the New Orleans Saints were also eliminated from the playoffs. The Bucs will travel to Atlanta to take on the Atlanta Falcons who were eliminated from the playoffs 2 weeks ago Sunday 1-8-23. The Bucs with the win improve to (8-8) winning 2 in a row.

  The Tampa Bay Buccaneers were up 17-0 at halftime over the Cincinnati Bengals. The Bucs looked well on their way to cruising to a victory. The AFC defending champions and Superbowl 56 losers got the gift from the Bucs in a form of unforced turnovers to not only get back in the game but to hand the Bucs their second loss in a row in week 15 of the regular season. The Bucs were outscored 34-6 in the second half and lose 34-23 at home to fall to (6-8). The Bucs lead the Carolina Panthers (5-9), the New Orleans Saints (5-9), and the Atlanta Falcons (5-9) by one game in the weak NFC South division.

Week 13 didn't disappoint. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers rallied from a 16-3 deficit to beat their division rival New Orleans Saints 17-16 at home. The Saints D forced 2 Bucs turnovers which led to 6 Saints points (2 field goals). The Bucs D continued not to give up big points held the Saints to another field goal. Saints QB Andy Dalton only TD pass when he threw a TD pass to Taysom Hill in the 2nd quarter. QB Tom Brady led a late fourth quarter rally for the Bucs throwing 2 touchdown passes, one to Cade Otton and the game winner to Rachaad White. The Bucs are now (6-6) with the win & extend their lead in the NFC South Division over their division rivals Atlanta Falcons (5-8), Carolina Panthers (4-8), and New Orleans Saints (4-9).

Tom Brady set a lone record of 100,000 yards passing. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers won a must needed win against the Los Angeles Rams 16-13 at home in week 9. The Bucs snap their 3-game losing streak with the win and Tom Brady throw game winning touchdown to Cade Otton. The Bucs are now 4-5. 

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers played good D in the first have. They were up 10-3 but in the second half the Baltimore Ravens carved up the Bucs D running the football and Lamar Jackson was able to beat the Bucs on the passing game. The Bucs were outscored 24-12. The Bucs fall to 3-5 in week 8 in their 27-22 loss at home.

Wow, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers hang on to win against their divisional rival the Atlanta Falcons 21-15 on a roughing the passer call at the end of the game. The Bucs snap their 2-game home losing streak and win their first home game of the season to go to 3-2 in week 5 of the regular season. I'm happy that the Bucs won the game but as a Bucs fan and watching the ref make an incredibly bad call, I'm shaking my head wondering how was that obvious sack of Tom Brady a roughing the passer? The Falcons came back after being down 21-0 and could have folded but they rallied and had a chance to win the game at end. 

I had a chance to watch the highlights of week 4 of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers 41-31 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs at home. The Chiefs got whatever their wanted in the pass and in the run. The Bucs were down and played catch up the whole game. The Chiefs game plan worked to perfection for them, and they controlled time of possession. What really hurt the Bucs were the 2 fumbles in the first half. One on their opening drive that the Chiefs recovered, and the 2nd came before the half that the Chiefs recovered both resulted in touchdowns for the Chiefs. One positive note, the Bucs D forced a turnover that helped them get a touchdown to cut the Chiefs lead to 41-31 when they were down 41-24 but by then it was too late. The Bucs is now 2-2. 

The takeaway from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers week 3 14-12 loss home opener to the Green Bay Packers is their lack of receivers due to injuries to their key receivers. That Russell Cager, Jr., who caught the TD catch from Tom Brady is going to be a really good receiver. The D by both teams was tenacious. Fumbles were forced by both teams that were recovered by the D on both teams. The Bucs forced an interception. The Bucs and Packers were once division rivals when the Bucs used to be in the NFC North. Once again great D by both teams. This Bucs team reminds me a lot of the 1997 and 2002 Bucs D. The Bucs are now 2-1.
