Flag On The Post: Super Bowl Victory Edition
The Fournette redemption song was just getting warmed up.
Something to keep an eye on…..
Interesting indeed.
That now sits at 8-3.
The “rigged” and referee conspiracy claims were in full effect by the end of the 2nd quarter.
Follow progress..not predictions.
It’s funny because it’s true.
Also scary as hell.
Speaking from experience.
Recurring theme: That damn Defense was killer.
Everything about this is PERFECT.
Winfield Jr. wasn’t on some pretty boy pettiness.
He didn’t just throw ‘em up on his way off the field.
Ol’ boy waited patiently until Hill made eye contact and hit him with the deuces.
That’s on the level of a perfectly delivered punchline from a comedian or a glance/look from an experienced stage performer.
It was intentional….not happenstance.
This was meant to be.
It had to happen.
This disrespect was REAL.
Winfield Jr. delivered one of, if not, the coldest revenge moments in NFL history on the biggest stage there could possibly be.
NARRATOR: Help never came.
A dream turned into reality.
It’s been a long time coming.
Baaaaaaaaaaaaaay
All season, that damn defense had been consistently good.
At the end of NFC Championship game, Devin White said they still hadn’t played their best yet.
He wasn’t lying.
Short answer:
Serious business…What Todd Bowles did with that defense is liken to what Monte Kiffin did back in Tampa’s glory days en route to the 1st title.
Even while nearing the point where the Team was securing a playoff spot, I could see both of these guys being considered for replacement if the season didn’t end with a serious Super Bowl run.
Now, they’ll both be etched in BUCS history forever.
Disney ain’t slick.
The colours were faint orange and red.
Could’ve been either team. I know better.
Gronkowski was the acting public relations guy as well as the party-starter at the postgame press conferences.
That boy played on another level.
It’s only fitting he was living on another planet.
The prophecy has been fulfilled.
For The Children.
Well deserved.
In three seasons, this cat has grown into the BUCS best CB and leader in the secondary.
This is the story of the game. And the season.
Don’t let the talking heads fool you.
A straight up magic moment.
Something like this may not be seen again for another 55 years.
Devin White and that damn horse dream.
He wasn’t gonna let go.
On some Wayne Wonder sh*t.
Call The People….
Pay Attention.
Even in a bad loss, great players stand out.
That boy Mahomes is UNREAL.
EXACTLY.
At every level, big time plays were being made on the defensive side of the ball.
Once again, former BUCS franchise player, Gerald McCoy offers congratulations to his friends and former teammates.
Dude was a class act his entire time in Tampa.
And he continues that life wherever he goes.
From the peanut gallery located in Green Bay, Wisconsin.
Take the time to LISTEN to this dude.
In just his 2nd season, White is the biggest talker in BUCS history.
Dude is openly passionate and damn near brutally honest.
Down the line, that’s gonna confuse some “fans” and maybe even hurt some feelings.
But it’ll be aiight.
This dude is SO DAMN GOOD.
And yet, SO DAMN underappreciated and overlooked.
I’m glad he can say he’s a Champion.
Can’t forget about these ol’ salty dogs….Ha
Yea…They’re gonna have to do some renovating over at One Buc Place.
I’ve no clue why a League rules authority would make this statement.
Incidental contact is still contact AND a foul.
If a QB takes contact to the head, even the slightest touch, it’s a foul.
Why is any different for guys running routes?!
These kinds of tweets/statements only muddy the waters when trying to make the right call or even make a baseline for what would be the right call.
And why do that after the last game of the season??
Another proud parent moment.
Gotta love it.
Yea.
I hope BUCS fans learn to not pay attention to opinion rankings and “grades” ever again.
I cracked the hell up on this one.. Can’t even lie.
Mike Evans’ favourite player became one of his biggest fans. DOPE.
They had to go into MapQuest to track down how far this dude had to run in order to get away from Todd Bowles’ defense!!!
I wonder if he gets reimbursed for mileage.
Remember when Donovan Smith was the “worst LT in the NFL” and he was sure to be the reason Brady wouldn’t make it thru the season??
Pure joy.
All these damn onions in here…
All coordinators look alike.
That’s what they say.
One day, fans will wake up to the reality that the vast majority of these guys are just there for entertainment purposes only.
The cats don’t pay attention to the BUCS or what’s happening.
If it’s not a nationally televised game, they don’t watch closely and they don’t care to.
They’ve gotta pretend they know everything about every other team too.
And it’s not just the big national guys either.
Plenty of locals are thriving on stories/headlines rather than actual insight and journalism.
Watch for the hook.
I’ve been there.
2014…..
0-8 at Raymond James Stadium.
Tee hee.
Don’t worry…I got ‘em.
Pay Attention!!
The QB gets too much blame and too much credit.
Any mention of anyone or anything else being the reason the BUCS were successful this season and it immediately goes to the notion one must “hate” the QB.
So weird.
This may be my favourite of the past week.
It’s crazy what film review can do.
Having no recent film of Heinecke caused some big issues for the Defense.
If you go back and look at Bowles’ history of 2nd chances against offenses while in Tampa, he’s found a way of correcting mistakes and exploiting the opposing team.
A hater??
Targeting.
This has been confirmed.
Serious business.
F*ck that faux-fandom.
It’s happening…..
This is one of the cooler videos of Super Bowl reactions.
Notice how there are so very little crowds in the video.
McClendon is one of a few guys that could possibly go out on a high note.
He could hang it up this offseason having won a Super Bowl.
LEGENDARY.
Just a reminder.
Champs from r/buccaneers
Ha!!!
The pettiness knows no boundaries.
The most despised Divisional rival stay having something to say.
Too bad they’ve gotta wait another 6 months to get the taste of ass-whoopin’ outta their mouths.
This will go down as the most talked about Championship parades of all time.
Someone missed a golden opportunity to shoot an Old Spice Swagger commercial here.
Well deserved.
Brady’s social media manager(s) deserve a raise.
Reminder: It’s bigger than sports.
The celebration everyone’s been waiting for.
Devin White and Dream taking a victory lap.

Some of the best social media posts of the week.

Damn…Damn…..Damn!
Great deep shot dime from Tom Brady to Mike Evans, who can still get downfield.
— Rick Stroud (@NFLSTROUD) August 18, 2020
This one took a lot of people by surprise and elicited some pretty funny responses.
Many of which were just pure confusion.
I wasn’t the only one unaware people were questioning Evans’ ability to get downfield.
After listening to all of the zoom interviews with Bucs players & coaches over the past 2 days, it’s safe to say that Jenna Laine has questions about Tom Brady!
— The Pewter Pirates (@GoBuccaneersGo) August 20, 2020
Jokes aside, Jenna Laine is damn good at what she does. She didn’t get to where she is by slacking.
It’s hard for people to have a successful career in sports. And yet, she’s doing it.
She’s to be respected.
She knows her sports and she knows her craft.
And dammit, by the end of this week, she’s gotta know e-v-e-r-y-t-h-i-n-g about Tom Brady.
Whether you like it or damn not.
“What have you learned from Tom Brady in your brief time working with him and how has it made you a better person?”
“Ma’am, this is a Wendy’s….”
Thank God It’s Fry/Gay: Bucs have their kickers competing today. Matt Gay good from 40, then Elliott Fry as well ... Gay misses from 43, Fry good. ... Gay misses from 48, Fry misses ... Gay misses from 53, Fry good.
— Greg Auman (@gregauman) August 21, 2020
Oh, Mr. Auman. Always good for a pun and turning a phrase.
This does indicate that there’s an actual kicking competition in Tampa this season though.
Something to pay attention to.
