Well, I’ve taken a couple of weeks off with this “Playaz 2 Watch” piece because the Bucs played the Carolina Panthers and the New Orleans Saints in Weeks 13 and 14. Since it was their second matchup with both teams, I thought it was unnecessary to do this segment on them since I felt like …Read More
Well…what is there to say about the Buccaneers losing to the 2-7 Giants last week? Am I surprised? Nope. Not in the least. They suck.
