The time is now.

Joe is happier than you can ever imagine to the following confession:

Bucs AC/DC-loving general manager Jason Licht was absolutely correct. David Walker is truly living up to the hype.

Through four games playing a part-time role on the Bucs defense, Bucs outside linebacker David Walker has four sacks through six games.

With 11 games left, this guy just might get to 10.

Who said KitKat-eating Bucs coach Todd Bowles can’t develop an edge rusher?

But playing him is another matter.

In the fourth quarter, when the Bucs desperately needed Walker today, too often Joe saw Walker pulled off the field. That shouldn’t be happening the rest of the year.

Steelers star T.J. Watt admitted the Steelers were gassed. They are not prepared for Florida weather — even though it’s borderline winter-like for Floridians.

Watt referred to “the heat” today. Hell, locals are breaking out sweaters.

The fourth quarter was the time to take advantage with Walker getting after ancient drama queen Aaron Rodgers.

The rest of the season, on passing downs, there is no good reason not to have Walker on the field.

Unless Bowles is trying to get fired.
