The Buccaneers are now 18-21 at Raymond James Stadium, aka The Licht House, with Todd Bowles as head coach.
Bucs fans from Temple Terrace to Tierra Verde are wondering when Team Glazer will move on from Bowles and have mercy on fans following a third consecutive home loss today and a brutal 0-4 start.
Joe will get at least 100 questions this week on the subject.
Team Glazer will not earn extra money by keeping Bowles through the rest of the 2026 season. In fact, it’s possible they’ll lose money if Bowles sticks around and fan revolt grows while home games arrive against the Falcons, Panthers and Chargers. Those fan bases do not travel, so The Licht House could be half-empty for those games at the current Bucs performance rate.
Joe can’t say whether potential revenue loss by keeping arguably the least popular coach in team history could move ownership to make a move on Bowles.
Team Glazer has never fired a coach during a season. But this season is very different. It’s Year 5 of the Bowles regime. Expectations were sky high just like they were last year. And the excuses are in the rearview mirror. The Bucs are on a 2-11 run dating back to the 2025 season.
This is the worst Bucs start since 2013.
Tampa Bay has a bye in Week 10. For those hoping, praying, wishing Bowles gets fired soon, Joe would advise you to put your feet up for a month and wait.
