“So the
#Bucs
had limited cap room this year since they paid off Tom Brady’s contract and signed Baker Mayfield to a cheap 1-year deal.”
“Oh, Baker? On his 4th team? He and the Bucs must’ve struggled.”
“No! Baker threw for 4,044 yds and 28 TDs and they won the division AGAIN!”
Always a good time when Gronk has a press conference.
He said his favorite memory with Tom Brady off the field is going to the Kentucky Derby and watching Brady take a shot of fireball and making a face of disgust 😂.
#Bucs
Baker Mayfield after fighting to win the starting QB job and revive his career, playing injured all season and winning the division to reach the postseason.
#Bucs
He’s beat up, he’s hobbled and he’s the division champ. They were chanting Baker’s name as he left the field here in Charlotte. Onto the postseason for the 4th straight year for Tampa Bay.
#gobucs
Vita Vea is willing to put $100k down that he can run a 40 yard dash faster than NBA Hall of Famer Paul Pierce after Pierce said on his show with Kevin Garnett that he’d beat him.
We need to see this happen 😂😂
Check out Vea’s IG for the video and more context.
#Bucs
Baker Mayfield was a maestro on this 2 minute drill. Went through all of his progressions and reads in a timely manner, always made the right throw.
Drove the offense 70 yards down the field and thew a TD pass to TE David Wells, who made 3 catches on the drive,
Let Baker Bake

QB Baker Mayfield takes a fun shot at the Houston Astros when asked about if he picked up on the Vikings’ signs in Sunday’s game:
“I know I’m in Tampa but I’m a Texas Rangers fan, not a Houston Astros fan. So we’re not going to condone that.”
Love it.
#Bucs
QB Baker Mayfield responds to
#Lions
C.J. Gardner-Johnson’s comments about how the Bucs could be a great group if they had a QB.
“I don’t think he’s really watched film because he mentioned Russell Gage. We love Russell but Russell hasn’t played a snap all year for us.”
What if after firing their coach Frank Reich, the
#Panthers
beat the
#Bucs
this week and then the Bucs fire Todd Bowles because of it?
And then next week with their own interim coach, the Bucs beat the
#Falcons
and they fire Arthur Smith as a result of it?
In 2022 the
#Bucs
have seen:
- AB leaving the field
- 27-3 playoff comeback ends in last seconds
- Leftwich becomes Jags HC
- Leftwich back with the Bucs as OC
- Brady retires
- Brady unretires
- Godwin franchise tag, then gets a deal
- Arians retires, Bowles new HC
Wild.
There are 8 teams in the
#NFL
that still have their season going. The
#Bucs
are 1 of them.
Regardless of how you felt earlier in the year Bowles, Baker and whether they should've tanked or competed - you have to respect what Tampa Bay has done this season.
Be happy, Bucs fans!
Great line by

GM Jason Licht over the re-signings and moves they’ve made:
“If anybody wants to criticize what they did, they can come to any of our three homes and look at our rings. We’re happy about that and we’re going to pursue another one, too.”
Shaq Barrett was behind Von Miller and Demarcus Ware for most of his time in Denver. He came to Tampa to get an opportunity as a starter and has damn well made the most of it.
I have nothing against the
#Packers
, but I don’t want to hear how “daunting” it is to play at Lambeau in the playoffs anymore. Many times there’s been teams that I have gone in there a huge game and beat them.
WR Denzel Mims had a very good first day of practice. Here he cuts quickly and gets himself enough space between the defender to win his matchup and make the catch.
Mims is a big target so he doesn’t need much room to be open. He’s got great size and speed.
@BUFootball
Congrats to
#Bucs
WR Chris Godwin on winning the 2023 Mark Cook Memorial Good Guy Award!
It is given to the player that has best handled the media this season.
The award was presented by PFWA Tampa chapter president
@gregauman
.
Well deserved, Chris!
Cole Beasley’s 1st punt return with the
#Bucs
was a pretty wild sequence. He muffs the punt, picks it up, almost gets run over by a flying Ko Kieft and then his helmet comes off as he starts running.
#Bucs
Antoine Winfield Jr. has warmed up going barefoot all season long. In recent weeks Chris Godwin has done it too.
Not sure if Winfield recruited him to do it.
Are they the barefoot bros?
Mike Evans had 669 (nice) receiving yards going into the game. He ended up with 110, putting him at 779 on the season. That leaves him with 221 yards left to reach 1,000 yds this year.
Evans would need an average of 110.5 yds in the last 2 games. Not easy, but reachable.
#Bucs
I’ve seen a number of
#Bucs
fans show their displeasure in the team wearing white jerseys again and I wholeheartedly agree with your frustration.
Every team has white unis. Not every team wears red. Bucs have worn red once and 1 game with the creamsicle.
Wear your team colors!
#Bucs
LT Tristan Wirfs on the OL facing the
#Lions
defensive front again:
“Ready to come out against another great defensive line is gonna be a lot of fun. I trust all 5 of us, all the guys in our room. We come out and fight our balls off. That’s what we’re gonna do again.”
Ik all the
#Bucs
news is about Brady, and it should be, but I’m excited to see the damage that JPP and Shaq can do together in a full season. They were great playing in 10 games.
I think both will motivate and push each other in a friendly competition to be the leader in sacks.
Mike Evans was one of the last people to go inside after practice. He signed autographs and took pictures with every single fan.
We’ve said it before but it’s worth repeating.
Great player, better person.

#Bucs
Todd Bowles talks about the challenges of being the head coach and DC, saying he’s moved up from starting at 5:30 AM to 4:30 to now 3:20.
Asked how long he wants to keep coaching for:
“I guarantee you I’m not making 70.”
My eyes could be deceiving me, but I’m 95% sure that Mike Evans and Ryan Griffin are at the UFC fight watching together. That’s awesome. Picture is blurry, but that’s them.

Of course the
#Bucs
1st “new” free agent signing of the year is a player that’s been in Tampa before and won a Super Bowl with the team.
Pretty good! 😅
Carlton Davis should always be remembered as an important part of the
#Bucs
Super Bowl LV winning team.
A great cover corner. Enjoyed interacting with him during media sessions.
Best of luck,
@Carlton_Lowkey
!
Thank you
@Carlton_Lowkey
for your time with the
#Bucs
, and for the time you spent interacting with
@PewterReport
and doing interviews with us. You are a class act and leave Tampa Bay a Super Bowl champion and a 3x NFC South champion.
Good luck in Detroit, Gravedigger.
#Bucs
win 30-12. They are in 1st place in the NFC South.
Last week we said it was their best game of the season, and it was. But today topped it. This was their best game of the year.
Christmas gave
#Bucs
fans a great gift.

WR Keon Coleman said he had a formal meeting with the

Also, learning the ins and outs from Mike Evans would be a great experience

DB Zyon McCollum speaks on playing safety in Monday's game and how long he had been practicing at that position for.
This was a big adjustment by Todd Bowles for the game to make sure Tampa Bay had their best cover guys playing defense all at once and it paid off:
Here’s Rakeem “Nacho” Nunez-Roches’ first comments about re-signing with the
#Bucs
, which he posted on his Insta story.
He was working out when the news broke so he didn’t know what people were talking about at first when he got all these congratulatory texts about the deal😂.
To those wondering - LeBron James said
#Bucs
-
#Lions
might be the game of the day.
LeBron echoed what many Bucs fans have said on Mike Evans - “Pay that man!”
“13, keep doing your shit, boy, you cold.”
He gave shoutouts to many TB defenders too. But…took the Lions to win.
I’m for Baker coming back to
#Bucs
next year. There’s also chatter about them drafting Michael Penix Jr. if it’s in the right spot.
And if they do, I think we can at least admit it’d be a little funny if after moving Wirfs to LT last season, they’d have to move him back to RT.
People forget that when the
#Bucs
won the Super Bowl in the 2020 season they wore red jerseys and pewter pants in round 1 before wearing white jerseys and pewter pants the rest of the way.
Bucs have never lost a playoff game in the red-pewter combo since those jerseys returned.
