Todd Bowles got a small victory in round two of the postseason.

In the Wildcard round of the playoffs, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers suffered an upset defeat at the hands of Jayden Daniels. The loss ended a 10-win season (Bowles' best as a head coach) and opened the door for criticism and questions to be hurled at Tampa’s head man. The immediate reaction, from most in the Buccaneers’ community, centered around Todd Bowles and was highly negative. There has been no indication from the Bucs’ organization or anyone affiliated with Tampa Bay that the team is looking to make a...

The Buccaneers remain one of just three teams to have made the playoffs in each of the last five seasons (2020-24).

- QB Baker Mayfield completed 15-of-18 passes (83.3%) for 185 yards and two touchdowns with zero interceptions to earn a 146.5...

Another walk-off loss summed up Tampa Bay’s entire season.

The game of inches can be brutal and unforgiving, and the Buccaneers experienced that in full force Sunday night.

A botched handoff, a mistimed snap, and a unfortuitous doink served as the hallmarks of a frustrating loss as the Washington Commanders claimed their first playoff win in 19 years with a last-second 23-20 victory over the Bucs.

The primetime woes continued under Todd Bowles, who falls to 3-8 in such contests and drops to 1-3 in the postseason. His defense, while feisty, simply could not muster the stops necessary to keep...
