Shaky pass blocking was on display. Rhythm-killing playcalling was on the buffet. Baker Mayfield? He was bad again, too.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">The Bucs still couldn\u2019t tackle and Joe keeps wondering when defensive captains Vita Vea, Alex Anzalone and Antoine Winfield are going to earn their massive pay checks. If YaYa Diaby could only wrap up a quarterback \u2026<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Somehow, washed out weirdo QB Deshaun Watson completed 24-of-30 passes for 238 yards and 2 touchdowns. A Todd Bowles defense has a way of making that happen.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">The Bucs are winless at 0-2.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Bucky Irving and Kenny Gainwell combined for a 7 catches for a total of 6 yards \u2014 SIX! It seems the Browns were determined to take away the Bucs\u2019 dink-and-dunk game and offensive coordinator Zac Robinson couldn\u2019t adjust. Baker Mayfield\u2019s erratic throws didn\u2019t help.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Missed tackles on the Browns\u2019 game-winning drive were crushing.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">The fiery rage of Bucs fans should be matched by the heat under Bowles\u2019 seat.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Browns 23, Buccaneers 19 September 20th, 2026 The Bucs got worse today after inconsistent play at Cincinnati on&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":405940,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[10998,10997,135,2964,137,136],"class_list":["post-405939","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-tampa","tag-bucs-message-boards","tag-bucs-news","tag-tampa","tag-tampa-bay-buccaneers","tag-tampa-headlines","tag-tampa-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/405939","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=405939"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/405939\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/405940"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=405939"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=405939"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=405939"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
