October 11, 2020

What a difference three days makes, huh? This past Tuesday in our weekly Tampa Bay Tuesday piece I closed by saying it appeared this Buccaneers team was starting to gel and become a formidable opponent. Well, with an ugly 20-19 loss to the Chicago Bears on Thursday Night Football, I could not have been more wrong. The game ended with Tom Brady giving us his best Brian Hoyer impression, forgetting…

We all know how it’s usually looked when he went to Denver in his career, so this was probably a nice little mental hurdle…
