It’s real now, folks. The Buccaneers find themselves smack dab in the middle of the NFC playoff chase, heading down the December stretch after rallying past a pesky San Diego Chargers team on the road. Whether the Bucs can do it or not, at least we’re not talking draft, amiright?
Photo Credit: Cliff Welch / Pewter ReportLet it be said on a fall Sunday in late November of 2016 the Tampa Bay Buccaneers announced to the rest of the National Football League that they were no longer Pewter clad pushovers of the past, that Raymond James Stadium would no longer be a vacation spot and yes, Virginia, there is a Buccaneer …Read More
Now that, ladies and gentlemen of WhatTheBucdom, was a win. It wasn’t a fluke, like that upset in Pittsburgh in Lovie’s first year. It wasn’t beating up on a bad team. It wasn’t a close but no cigar, like that close loss in Seattle during Schiano’s last season (the 0-8 Bucs taking on the 7-1 …Read More
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers snapped a two game losing streak by dismantling the hapless Chicago Bears. It was the Bucs’ first home win of the season and set the table for an interesting week. The Bucs have proven they can beat a bad team but can they stay on the field with a good one?

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
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). Lose a game you’re expected to win, you gotta win one you’re expected to lose. The Bucs lost that opportunity …Read More
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. Unfortunately, its the same way they’ve lost to the Scams and to the suddenly 1-3 Arizona Cardinals. Turnovers. Miscommunication. Penalties. It’s really …Read More
I wasn’t a happy camper on Sunday folks, furious even. For those of you who follow me on twitter at @jcdelatorre, you know I live tweet the games. If you looked through my timeline, you basically saw me lose my sh…uh, mind. With games looming against the two teams that played last February for the …Read More
