Dominik: McCoy was the choice at #1

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers may have gotten a stud defensive tackle for the next ten years when they took Gerald McCoy No. 3-overall. Or, he could be a total bust. Or, he could be somewhere in between. No one knows for sure. But what Tampa GM Mark Dominik says he knows, is that even if [...]

Steelers trade for Byron Leftwich

The Pittsburgh Steelers are pretty well aware that they won’t have their QB Ben Roethlisberger around for a couple games at the start of the season. The NFL has made it pretty clear that they look down upon people who run around raping girls. While they have Dennis Dixon on the roster and he might [...]

Shanahan wants no part of Albert Haynesworth

The Washington Redskins seem to be revamping their clubhouse in a very positive way and it all started with bringing coach Mike Shanahan on board and then trading for Donovan McNabb last Sunday. Now it’s time to get rid of the fat and what better place to start then defensive tackle Albert Haynesworth?  Per NFL.com’s [...]

Antonio Bryant signs with the Bengals

Jocklife.com is reporting that the Cincinnati Bengals and free agent WR Antonio Bryant have agreed to a four-year contract. Under the terms of the contract, Bryant will run fast and catch footballs when they are thrown to him. Jocklife is an agent-run site that does have some credibility, but this is by no means official.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers cornerback Aqib Talib is about to have charges filed against him for allegedly punching a cab driver in the ear and neck on August 19th. He was arrested on charges of simple battery and resisting arrest without violence and now he’s got to face the music. “We believe (the cab driver) was [...]

Dante Wesley has a fine coming

This is just brainless. Carolina Panthers special teams (special as in “we’re all winners”) gunner Dante Wesley made a horrific hit on a defenseless Clifton Smith after he called a fair catch. The ref made the right call to eject this idiot. There is no evidence present to defend Wesley’s decision. Someone will have a [...]

My thoughts Eagles/Bucs

This is my weekly entry from GCobb.com on the Eagles game. I like to post it here too: It’s still very difficult to get an exact read on how good this Eagles team is, because they’ve played such lousy teams lately. But that said, they still mopped up the Bucs 33-14 at the Linc on [...]

Cadillac doesn’t practice

The Pewter Report says that Tampa Bay Buccaneers RB Cadillac Williams was held out of practice on Thursday for unknown reasons. Usually, this isn’t a big deal, but Cadillac is coming off two major injuries in the last two years. In the last two years he has torn the patellar tendon in each knee. That [...]

Gaines Adams could hear the B-word soon

Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Raheem Morris seems to be down to quite down on former first-round pick Gaines Adams. The defensive end taken with the fourth pick in the 2007 draft hasn’t recorded a sack in the first two games this year and could be in danger of being benched. “He hasn’t [put forth [...]

Antonio Bryant not expected to play

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Antonio Bryant underwent arthroscopic surgery last month and it’s possible he did too much too soon.  Stephen Holder from the St. Petersburg Times indicates the Buccaneers are deeply concerned about his injury and unless Bryant’s left knee makes dramatic improvement, the Bucs expect him to miss Sunday’s game at Buffalo.

How to win a kicking job and influence others

Tampa Bay Buccaneers kicker Matt Bryant went on 97X in Tampa Thursday morning and had some choice words for his kicking competition, Mike Nugent. “We pretty much go about our business,” Bryant said. “It’s not like we’re shutting the door on somebody’s foot. But the other day, it dawned on me. He made some comment [...]

Byron Leftwich to start

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have named a starting quarterback and his name is Byron Leftwich. We aren’t really sure what took so long to decide, but whatever. Josh Johnson isn’t a starter in this league and will probably be cut. Luke McCown isn’t a starter in this league and probably won’t be cut. And Josh [...]

Dexter Jackson improving?

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receivers coach Richard Mann thinks that second-year WR Dexter Jackson is improving. Well, we aren’t sure how he could be much worse. Last year’s second-round pick didn’t impress anyone as he tried to adjusted to actually getting hit in the NFL. “He’s made a lot of improvement,” Mann said. “He’s actually [...]

Double-digit sacks for Adams or bust

Tampa Bay Buccaneers coach Raheem Morris told former #4-overall pick Gaines Adams that if he doesn’t get double-digit sacks this season, he’s a bust. “Double-digit sacks,” Morris said. “That’s what he’s graded on, there’s no secret about it. I’ve got no problem telling him, “Hey Gaines, if you don’t do it this year, you’re going [...]

Let's talk about Kellen Winslow's testicles

Tampa Bay Bucs’ TE Kellen Winslow tells ESPN the Magazine that he suffered a staph infection last year that caused so many problems that his testicles had to be drained. While it’s nothing new for a Cleveland Brown to have a staph infection, it isn’t the most fun to hear about someone’s balls having to [...]

The Bucs announced – at the bottom of a press release announcing the signing of a third-round pick – that they have released veteran QB Brian Griese. Griese had two years remaining on his contract and he immediately now becomes a free agent.
