Todd Bowles Talks Getting Back To The Super Bowl
May 14th, 2026
Big themes. Big dreams.
The Buccaneers’ head coach is fired up and thinking big — very big.
Joe expects that from every Bucs head coach, but Joe doesn’t always expect those feelings to be heard.
Yesterday on the The Jim Rome Show, heard nationally, Todd Bowles was talking about the big game in February, and he had more juice in his voice than usual.
“Well, the next step for us is trying to get to the Super Bowl,” Bowles said. “It’s a process. You gotta be healthy. You gotta get lucky. You gotta make plays. And you gotta do all those things. We lost a lot of three-point games, especially in the second half of the season. Those things gotta be corrected. But the guys we brought in, along with the draft picks, if it meshes all well, we think we got as good a shot as anybody.”
Bowles does have a lot pieces, including a talented and experienced offense with a seasoned playcaller, and a special teams group that should no longer be clueless.
There are plenty of reasons for optimism, and for fans to be intolerant of sad football.
