I figured I’m going to put out one of these offseason wish lists every other week as the offseason progresses.  As I mentioned the other day there are a ton of issues that were exposed in the last 4 weeks of the year, and this is the offseason we must address them.  Let’s get right [...]

Cadillac Williams confirmed today that his torn patella tendon is not the same injury that he suffered last year versus the Panthers.
“It is. It’s torn, but it’s not the severity of the last one,” Williams said, referring to the torn patellar injury in Week 4 at Carolina in the 2007 season. “It’s more of an [...]

Yesterday was a real tough day for me personally, and I’m sure throngs of other Bucs fans across the country.  28 days ago, going into week 13’s Monday Night Football Game against the Carolina Panthers, we had a chance to lock up the division, and end up on a collision course with the #1 seed [...]

A few weeks ago when Lane Kiffin was hired on as the head coach at the University of Tennessee and most presumed Buccaneers Defensive Coordinator Monte Kiffin would soon follow, The Pewter Plank speculated on the possible replacement choices for Kiffin.  Number one on our list was Defensive Backs Coach Raheem  Morris.  On Christmas Day [...]

The last few weeks have been a total wreck for diehard Bucs fans.   Before our game vs the Panthers, we had a decent shot at the number one seed in the NFC.  Three ass kickings later, we are fighting to make the playoffs next week. 
We no longer control our own destiny after yesterday’s drubbing at [...]

The most important issue heading into this weeks game, is the injuries that are continuing to pile up for the Buccaneers.
Jovan Haye and Chris Hovan both particapated fully in practice.  After giving up 13,000 yards rushing the last two games, this is an important development.  Although both guys are not big names in the NFL [...]

After looking at the NFC Pro Bowl Roster yesterday evening I was happy to see a couple Bucs on the roster.  Derrick Brooks made his 12th consecutive Pro Bowl (after being inserted as an alternate last year) and undrafted rookie return man Clifton Smith was selected to his first Pro Bowl. 
I was hoping that the [...]

Coupled with the loss to the Falcons on Sunday, which after the Cowboys/Giants game knocked us out of the playoffs, the Bucs had a few major injuries. 
Jermaine Phillips broke his forearm and is out for the season. 
Jeff Garcia, Jovan Haye, and Chris Hovan are all still listed as questionable on the injury report. 
Derrick Brooks injured [...]

I’m sorry I don’t have a game review up yet…I’m still digesting yellow penalty flags and sacks from yesterday.  It’ll be up tommorow when I have a chance to rewatch the game in a non-emtional way (I’ll try). 
There is some interesting news out of Buccaneer World today.  Greg White has officially changed his name from [...]

Just got finished reading a great piece by Sean Jensen on Yahoo about Bucs receiver Antonio Bryant.  It aims to clarify the situations that Bryant had earlier in his career.  It seems like some people just assume that Bryant is a terrible person because of mainly a run in with coach Bill Parcells, but this season [...]
