(Joe listens on SiriusXM.) It was there, on Monday, when King declared the Bucs are toast. \u201cTampa\u2019s [season,] it\u2019s over.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Interestingly, King talked about how he doesn\u2019t think the Texans are cooked at 0-4, and he had thoughts about how the 0-4 Chargers could proceed in a lost season. But the Bucs? \u201cOver.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">It\u2019s possible King is feeling good about the Bucs\u2019 struggles under Bowles. It was King who picked the Bucs to win two games in 2023, and he wasn\u2019t happy <a href=\"https:\/\/www.joebucsfan.com\/2023\/09\/the-root-of-peter-kings-bucs-bashing\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">with the response he got<\/a> from Tampa Bay faithful. Of course, the Bucs won 9 games and a playoff game that season, which made King look bad.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\u201cTampa\u2019s, It\u2019s Over\u201d October 6th, 2026 Peter King.
