It was a long, winding road to get here but the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are NFC South division champions. So Trey Downey and Len Martez are back to discuss the accomplishment on a new edition of Downey and Martez.  Trey praises the Buccaneers performance against the Carolina Panthers on Sunday, but Len’s take that it was much of the same leads to a heated debate on just what we saw at Raymond James Stadium this past Sunday. Trey focuses on the explosive plays while Len points out that Tampa Bay still struggled mightily in the running game & had to overcome another fourth quarter double digit deficit. The guys then move onto the ramifications from the game and discuss whether head coach Todd Bowles’ job is now safe for next year. That conversation took a turn towards South Florida & the two discuss Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel’s future in Miami.  Trey then poses the question to Len on who Bucs fans should want to face on wildcard weekend. Len explains why the Philadelphia Eagles and Dallas Cowboys are both bad matchups but eventually leans in a certain direction.  The guys close the podcast by both expressing their concern and optimism in regards to Buffalo Bills defensive back Damar Hamlin’s scary incident and subsequent recovery. The guys also discuss what the NFL is doing in terms of playoff seeding in the AFC.  Don’t forget to subscribe to Bucs Nation on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeart Radio, or wherever else you get your podcasts.

Week 17 is here and while it is no longer the final week of the regular season it is the most important one for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. On a brand new edition of Downey and Martez, Trey Downey and Len Martez look ahead to a game that could decide the season against the Carolina Panthers after reacting to the Bucs overtime win against the Arizona Cardinals on Christmas night. Trey is anything but positive about the win and focuses on how the offense looked abysmal until the closing minutes. Downey thinks the defense plays well for the most part with the offense putting them in bad positions, but Martez focuses on the teams struggles to stop the run.  On the offensive side of the ball, Trey asks Len if he had any answers to the puzzling situation regarding the lack of targets for wide receiver Mike Evans and his drop in production . Because of the success in the closing minutes of the game, Trey wonders if the Bucs should try to go more up-tempo early in games while Len states "We are way past that point." In looking ahead to Sunday’s showdown at Raymond James Stadium with the Carolina Panthers, Trey says the Bucs just need to sell out to stop the run and force Panthers quarterback Sam Darnold to beat them. Len points out that even if the Bucs sell out to stop the run it isn’t a guarantee that they will win considering what happened in week seven in Charlotte. As far as what will happen on Sunday, Len is done making win-loss predictions with this team while Trey's take is absolutely no result will shock him.  Don’t forget to subscribe to Bucs Nation on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeart Radio, or wherever else you get your podcasts.

The holiday season is upon us and Santa has brought you a brand new edition of Downey and Martez. This week the guys look back at the loss to the Cincinnati Bengals and ahead to a Christmas night showdown with the Arizona Cardinals. Trey starts things off by asking Len if he took more from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers great first half against Cincinnati or the absolutely atrocious second half. In regards to that first half, the guys discuss what went right for Tampa Bay. After getting the positives out of the way, the guys move on to the final 30 minutes of the game. The guys explain what the turning point in the game was and agreed it was the botched fake punt. Trey and Len debate what went wrong on that play and if it was actually a fake. The guys also discuss the post game interaction between running back Gio Bernard and various members of the media. Before moving onto discussing this week’s Sunday Night Football game, the guys dig a little deeper on the Bengals and how much of a threat they are to win their conference.  In regards to the Christmas night game, Len seems very confident in the Bucs chances so Trey presses him on why.  Don’t forget to subscribe to Bucs Nation on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeart Radio, or wherever else you get your podcasts.

We have reached week 15 in the NFL and it is time for another new edition of Downey and Martez. After discussing a thrilling win last week, Trey Downey and Len Martez are left discussing an embarrassing loss to the San Francisco 49ers that dropped the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to 6-7. Even though Len told Trey he didn’t think the Bucs had a chance to win last week, Trey starts the podcast by asking Len if he thought it would be that bad. The guys then move on to discussing the nugget that dropped that quarterback Tom Brady holds meetings with the skill players on Saturday nights where he tweaks the game-plan. Trey focuses on the weirdest part being that these tweaks aren’t cleared with the coaching staff and that Head Coach Todd Bowles and offensive coordinator Byron Leftwich find out about them on gameday.  The guys then turn their discussion to the coaching staff and have a disagreement in terms of what will save their jobs and have them back with the team next year. With the loss, the guys had to tackle the fact that the division title isn’t a sure thing and discuss whether the Carolina Panthers or the Atlanta Falcons are a bigger threat right now. The guys close the podcast by previewing Sunday's game against the Cincinnati Bengals and debating which injured player who might return would be the biggest shot in the arm for Tampa Bay.  Don’t forget to subscribe to Bucs Nation on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeart Radio, or wherever else you get your podcasts.

Is it time to drink some pewter and red kool-aid once again? Trey Downey and Len Martez tackle that very question on a brand new edition of the Downey and Martez podcast. Trey starts the podcast by asking Len where the success that the Tampa Bay Buccaneers had on the final two drives was for the majority of the game. Len focuses on one thing, unimaginative play-calling. Trey then asks Len about offensive coordinator Byron Leftwich’s lackluster response to questions about fixing the offense. Trey also asks Len how much of left tackle Donovan Smith’s struggles can be pinned on who has played next to him this year. While Trey says that quarterback Tom Brady turned into “That Dude” in the final minutes, there is one aspect of the future hall of famer’s play that is worrying him.  The guys then move on to the upcoming game against the San Francisco 49ers. While Trey points out that it could be a huge game for the Bucs in terms of playoff seeding Len explains why he doesn’t think the result will be different than what he expected before the injury to quarterback Jimmy Garroppolo.  The guys close the show by making predictions on who they think will win the Heisman Trophy.  Don’t forget to subscribe to Bucs Nation on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeart Radio, or wherever else you get your podcasts.

As the NFL season enters December, Trey Downey and Len Martez are back with another new edition of Downey and Martez. On this week’s podcast, the guys look back at the overtime loss to the Cleveland Browns.  That loss finally brings Trey to the realization that the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are who Len has been saying they are for the majority of the season, a mediocre football team. In looking back at the loss, Len focuses on the Bucs lack of a running game against a horrible Browns run defense while Trey focuses on the coaching and lack of clock management at the end of the game. While Len says he doesn't necessarily buy Head Coach Todd Bowles' excuse that he was worried about an interception thrown by quarterback Tom Brady, Trey says it might be even worse if it was just a lapse of judgment. The decision and subsequent excuse leaves Trey wondering if Bowles is meant to be a head coach in the NFL.  Trey asks Len whether he thought Bowles could possibly be one and done as the Bucs head coach. The guys agree that one & done is definitely possible should the Bucs miss the playoffs and the guys also agrees that 9-8 is probably the absolute ceiling for this team at this point. Before closing the podcast, Trey asks Len what the keys will be in a Monday Night Football battle against the New Orleans Saints. The guys also discuss the recent report whether or not Brady could be returning to the New England Patriots in 2023 is a real possibility.  Don’t forget to subscribe to Bucs Nation on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeart Radio, or wherever else you get your podcasts.

It is time for a special holiday week edition of the Bucs Nation Podcast as Trey Downey and Len Martez look back at the Tampa Bay Buccaneers win over Seattle and ahead to their Thanksgiving weekend game against the Cleveland Browns. Trey starts the podcast by asking Len if he’s more confident in the Bucs chances in the NFC after their win over the Seahawks and the inconsistency that is being shown by the top teams in the conference. Len agrees that the win in Germany was a step in the right direction but adds that Tampa still needs to prove that they are that team on a regular basis.  The guys then heaps praise on linebacker Devin White after another great game in the midst of difficult circumstances. The conversation then turns into a debate on whether rookie running back Rachaad White has unseated veteran Leonard Fournette as the starting running back on this football team. Before looking ahead to the future the guys examine the Bucs laughable attempt at a trick play from all angles. The guys close the podcast by looking ahead to the game against the Browns and Trey tells you why this game is still a dangerous one and one that is very important for the Bucs status in the NFC moving forward.  Don’t forget to subscribe to Bucs Nation on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeart Radio, or wherever else you get your podcasts.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are back to their winning ways and Trey Downey and Len Martez are back to discuss it all on a new edition of Downey and Martez. Trey begin the podcast by asking Len if we will end up looking at the game-winning drive against the Rams as the one that saved the Bucs season. Len doesn't hop on that positive train. He states it was good that the Bucs won but points out just how bad of a team the Rams are. Trey praises the defensive performances of linebacker Devin White and defensive tackle Vita Vea while Len brings up the sobering reality of how long it has been since Tampa Bay defense has forced a turnover. The talk then turns to the offensive side of the ball and the continued struggles of the running game. The conversation centers around running back Leonard Fournette and Len points out that it is time to start putting some of the blame on Fournette along with the offensive line and play-calling. In response to that Trey asks Len if he thinks we will continue to see more of running back Rachaad White and less of Lenny as the season rolls along. Before continuing on to this weekend’s game, Trey heaps praise on rookie tight end Cade Otton and asks if he was the best off-season acquisition that the Bucs made. The podcast moves on to the NFL international series game against the Seattle Seahawks. Trey focuses on the implications of this game in terms of playoff seeding and how much momentum it could bring the Bucs. Len focuses on the fact that the confidence of the Bucs needs to continue to rise and they still have a long way to go before becoming a true playoff threat. The guys close the podcast by discussing the reports that former Buccaneers head coach Jon Gruden is on the list of candidates for the recently opened USF Bulls head coaching job.

Week 9 is already here in the NFL which means Trey Downey and Len Martez are back with another new edition of Downey & Martez.  The guys unfortunately start the show by discussing the Buccaneers loss to the Baltimore Ravens on Thursday Night Football. Before getting to all of the negative from that football game Trey asks Len a simple question. Did the Bucs play better in that game than in their previous two losses to the Carolina Panthers and Pittsburgh Steelers. Once the one item of positive news gets out of the way, the guys move on to a discussion about linebacker Devin White, a player who has been under a microscope. The guys discuss White’s rough night, what seemed like a lack of effort and his decision to initially not speak to the media this week. Trey also poses the question to Len on whether White is still one of the best linebackers in the league.  Len then turns to what he perceives as a lack of leadership in the Bucs locker room and Trey brings up a defensive player that he’d like to see step up and be more vocal amidst the struggles. Trey and Len then touch on another rough offensive performance and wonder if it is still blasphemy to think that quarterback Tom Brady has finally crossed into the threshold of being old.  Len then tells you why he thinks we will see a lot of mediocre football against the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday. The guys close the podcast by discussing Tampa’s decision to stand pat at the trade deadline and debate which trade around the league will have the biggest impact on the 2022 season.  Don’t forget to subscribe to Bucs Nation on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeart Radio, or wherever else you get your podcasts.

After another disheartening loss for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Trey Downey and Len Martez are back to digest what happened this past Sunday in Carolina on a new edition of Downey and Martez.  Trey and Len begin the show with the start of the game and wide receiver Mike Evans dropping what would’ve been a 64-yard touchdown. The guys discuss how the game could’ve been different if Evans caught the pass and his post-game comments about how it changed the team’s confidence.  Trey then focuses on why he thinks this team could turn things around if the red-zone offense struggles are fixed while Len stated that would be great but the Buccaneers would still have issues because of their run defense. The conversation then turns to coaching and the guys discuss how much this team is missing former head coach Bruce Arians. Trey even poses the question on whether or not there is a scenario where Arians returns to the coaching staff in any kind of official capacity.  That question jumpstarts another topic and whether or not offensive coordinator Byron Leftwich makes it through the season. Trey laments that if the Bucs were to make that move it would have to come in the next few weeks. Trey closes the show by trying to be positive and asking if the Bucs are still the favorites to win the NFC South.  Don’t forget to subscribe to Bucs Nation on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeart Radio, or wherever else you get your podcasts.

It is time for another fresh edition of the Downey and Martez podcast. On this week’s show Trey Downey and Len Martez look back at the Buccaneers embarrassing loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers and look ahead to a divisional match-up against the Carolina Panthers. Trey start the podcast by listing all of the issues that the Bucs had against the Steelers. Len focus during the the start of the podcast is on the defensive side of the ball and the late 3rd down conversions the Buccaneers defense gave up. Trey agrees that those were concerning, but he presses Len on if he’s actually more worried about the Bucs defense right now. The guys get a little more specific on the offensive side of the ball and discuss left guard Luke Goedeke’s growing pains, offensive coordinator Byron Leftwich’s stubbornness when it comes to running the ball and wide receiver Mike Evans' lack of targets. With all of that negativity out of the way the guys then take a look on the bright side. The Bucs play the 1-5 Panthers on Sunday. The gents looks at the recent fire sale going on in Carolina and discuss if running back Christian McCaffrey trade to San Francisco makes the 49ers a true contender. In discussing the future of the Panthers the guys get into a heated debate on whether or not the currently retired Sean Payton would come out of retirement for their head coaching job. Trey then asks Len what the consequences might be if the Bucs fell to 3-4 on Sunday and were beaten by a team led by quarterback PJ Walker. Finally, the guys close the show by looking at the headlines around the league and discussing two surprise teams in the NFL and which one is less fraudulent.

Week 6 in the NFL is already upon us and that means it is time for your weekly dose of the Downey and Martez podcast. Trey and Len begin this week’s show by looking back at the 21-15 victory over the Atlanta Falcons. Trey asks Len if the game ultimately being that close was worrisome. Len explains why the result itself wasn’t necessarily worrisome, but the Buccaneers struggles against the run and Devin White’s postgame comments raised some eyebrows. Trey then moves on to some positives and praises running back Leonard Fournette’s 10-catch performance and just how quickly rookie running back Rachaad White is developing into a more than competent pass blocker. The conversation then shifts to the roughing the passer call on Falcons defensive tackle Grady Jarrett that ended up having a big impact on the game. Trey and Len don't spend too much time debating how egregious the call was because that was obvious. The guys dig into the reaction to the call and the fact that a lot of Bucs fans tried to justify it by pointing out pass interference not being called on Scotty Miller. Trey and Len then shift gears to the action on the field in Week Six. The guys discuss the injuries that both teams are dealing with in the secondary and Trey tells you why he loves a certain bet you can place on the Bucs this weekend. Before closing the show the guys look at the two marquee matchups in Week Six and Trey asks Len if there’s anything the league can do to fix Thursday Night Football.  Don’t forget to subscribe to Bucs Nation on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeart Radio, or wherever else you get your podcasts.

Week Five in the National Football League is here and it is time for another brand new edition of Downey and Martez. Trey Downey and Len Martez begin this week’s show by recapping what happened on Sunday night football against the Kansas City Chiefs. Trey and Len agree that this was the worst performance by the Buccaneers defense in a very long time. The guys dig deeper and talk about the struggles against the run and ponder whether Jason Licht should be giving Ndamukong Suh a call.  After a heated discussion on the last episode about Bucs offensive coordinator Byron Leftwich’s play-calling, Trey asks Len about his level of concern after a performance that netted just three rushing yards against the Chiefs. Len gives you an interesting response to why Leftwich has been calling the games the way he has been. After discussing the offensive play-calling, the conversation turns to this Sunday’s game against the Atlanta Falcons. Trey asks Len how surprised he is that the game is for first place in the NFC South at this point in the season. The guys also discuss two weapons that Tampa Bay fans should be worried about even with the injury to Falcons offensive weapon Cordarelle Patterson.  Trey then explains why he thinks Bucs fans that are concerned about the team's play should be stepping away from the panic button. The guys close the podcast by discussing who the best team in the league is a month into the season.

It is time for another jam-packed edition of Downey and Martez. Trey Downey and Len Martez begin by looking back at the Buccaneers week two win over the New Orleans Saints. The guys praise yet another stifling performance by the Bucs defense and Len gives praise to two defensive backs that have become ballhawks. The discussion on the podcast turns to the struggles that Tampa Bay once again had on the offensive side of the ball. This leads to a heated debate on offensive coordinator Byron Leftwich’s play calling & if the Bucs are relying on the run game too much.  After giving their thoughts about the Buccaneers offense, Trey & Len jump to the latest chapter in the Mike Evans and Marshon Lattimore feud. While many Bucs fans have been praising Evans’ actions, the guys both agree because of the consequences, the all=pro wide receiver has to know better . Downey & Martez then move onto linebacker Devin White’s postgame comments on former Buccaneers quarterback Jameis Winston & have another debate, this time on whether White's comments were fair or foul.  Before wrapping up the podcast, Trey explains why he thinks this week’s home opener against the Green Bay Packers could be another low scoring affair and Len tells you why this week’s game is even more important for the surprise team down in South Florida.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are 1-0 and head to New Orleans this week. And Trey Downey and Len Martez are back with a new episode of Downey and Martez to discuss it all. The guys begin the show by discussing the good, bad, and ugly from the 19-3 win over the Cowboys.  The guys agree that if there was any ugly, it was the fact that Tampa Bay are dealing with more injuries. The gents discuss the injuries to offensive tackle Donovan Smith & three wide receivers, Julio Jones, Mike Evans & Chris Godwin & how the injuries could impact the team moving forward depending on how much time they may miss. From the ugly, Trey & Len discuss the bad which was the offense stalling in Cowboys' territory. The guys save the best for last & that was the good. That part of the conversations begins with the stifling performance of the defense. Trey and Len then agree how impressive Jones looked and how he was used in the offense.. Trey then gives some credit to Len for being right on how many touches running back Leonard Fournette got in week one. After the breaking down week one, the discussion moves to the Bucs week two matchup. Len explains why he expects the Bucs to have a similar, run-heavy game-plan against the Saints, while Trey mentions how the Saints attack the Tampa Bay offense depends on if Evans and Jones are able to suit up in New Orleans. Trey then explains why the Saints need to have a much better start than they did in week one against the Atlanta Falcons if they want to keep their regular season winning streak against the Bucs going. The podcast closes with a conversation about other results in week one & what matchups they're looking forward to this coming week.

The regular season is here and it is time to preview games that matter on a new edition of Downey and Martez. Before getting into the Sunday Night Football game against Dallas, Trey Downey and Len Martez tackle some of the news items of the week. First off Len expresses why all of the smoke around a Rob Gronkowski return isn’t news until he gives some kind of indication that he wants to play. The guys then discuss Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin being a full participant in practice on Wednesday and Trey asks Len for a gut feeling on whether Godwin will suit up against the Cowboys. Trey then tries to get some credit on running back Rachaad White moving up to the 2nd slot on the depth chart, but Len's response is to wait until Sunday night. The conversations then zeroes in on Sunday night. Len tells us why he thinks running back Leonard Fournette could see quite a few touches and Trey looks into why he thinks Dallas getting exotic with blitz packages could be their key to victory. Finally the guys revisit their playoff predictions from last week and explain who they think will be playing for the Lombardi Trophy in February. While the guys agree on the team coming out of the AFC, there's a difference of opinion on the NFC.  Don’t forget to subscribe to Bucs Nation on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeart Radio, or wherever else you get your podcasts.

The initial 53 man roster is set for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Trey Downey and Len Martez are back to discuss it with you on a new edition of Downey and Martez. Trey and Len start the show by talking about the shocking move of the Bucs cutting wide receiver Tyler Johnson. Len explains why his issue wasn’t that Tampa Bay cut Johnson, but the reason given why he was cut. Trey brings up that he thinks quarterback Tom Brady’s absence might have worked against Johnson. The guys then discuss Brady’s preseason debut against the Indianapolis Colts and his comments to the media after the game. Len reiterates why he still isn’t worried about "That Dude" being distracted on the field. Finally the guys share their NFL season predictions. While the division winners in both conferences seems to be common ground for Trey and Len, a healthy bit of disagreement takes place when the discussion turns to wildcard team predictions.  Don’t forget to subscribe to Bucs Nation on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeart Radio, or wherever else you get your podcasts.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are gearing up for their final preseason game of 2022 and Trey Downey and Len Martez are back with a new edition of Downey and Martez to get you ready for it.  Trey starts the show by giving Len props about being right that Tom Brady and the other Bucs starters will play in the final preseason game. With that news the guys discuss just how much those players should play.  Trey and Len also discuss the season ending injury to offensive lineman Aaron Stinnie. The guys both stress the fact that regardless of whether Stinnie was ultimately going to be the starter, this is a very big loss moving forward.  Trey and Len move onto to one of the most talked about players of training camp, wide receiver Scotty Miller. Trey put Len on the spot by asking him if Miller would ultimately make the 53 man roster. The guys end the podcast by debating the final 2 starting quarterback battles in the NFL.  Don’t forget to subscribe to Bucs Nation on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeart Radio, or wherever else you get your podcasts.

The first Buccaneers preseason game of the season is in the books and Trey Downey and Len Martez are back on a new episode of Downey & Martez to break it all down for you. The guys began the show by breaking down the most recent roster moves. Len told you why he wasn’t really surprised by the Bucs cutting cornerback Ross Cockrell. Trey then told you why he thinks outside linebacker Carl Nassib might be the perfect signing to make up for the loss of Cam Gill.  The guys then moved on to the performance of quarterback Kyle Trask. Len explained why grading his performance goes much deeper than just looking at the stats that he put up. Trey then illustrated how kicker Jose Borregales not only missed a kick, but might’ve missed his only opportunity to unseat Ryan Succop for the starting kicker job. The conversation then turned to players that the guys felt needed to be discussed because of their big nights. Trey and Len agreed on a couple of wide receivers and one defender that continues to impress. The show closed with a debate on whether the starting offense will see action in the preseason with the news that Chris Godwin participated in the team period of practice on Tuesday.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers wrapped up another week of training camp and once again there were no shortage of storylines for Trey Downey and Len Martez to get to on a new edition of Downey and Martez. The show began once again with a conversation about quarterback Tom Brady. The guys discussed the news that  “That Dude” will be away from the team until after the second preseason game against the Tennessee Titans. Trey and Len broke down how the absence impacts the Bucs moving forward.  The discussion stayed on quarterbacks, but this time the guys were talking Kyle Trask. Trey asked Len for his first hand take on how the second year quarterback has looked in practice after all of the negativity that has been on social media. There was then a rare moment of agreement between Trey and Len in terms of the amount of playing time Trask should get in the preseason.  Finally, the guys discussed if there were any surprises on the Bucs initial depth chart and provided a few names of players they’ll have their eyes on Saturday night at Raymond James Stadium.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are a full week into their 2022 training camp. And that means Trey Downey and Len Martez have a fresh edition of Downey and Martez to get you through your weekend.  Trey began the podcast by asking Len about the general vibe of camp and if camp had a noticeable difference under Head Coach Todd Bowles. The conversation then pivoted to Tom Brady and Len had some glowing praise and a new nickname for the now 45-year old quarterback. Trey and Len then talked about some of the position battles including how Robert Hainsey has been doing in terms of filling Ryan Jensen’s shoes. The guys also discussed how Tyler Johnson was preforming so far in camp and how the young receiver’s willingness to play special teams might be how he makes the team. It was then time for Len to take his mulligan as he did a complete 360 on one rookie after seeing him in action at camp. The guys then closed the show by discussing the ongoing situation surrounding Deshaun Watson and just how many games he will be suspended.

Training camp has began for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and it has been a very newsworthy few days for the team.. All of the hot topics are covered on this week’s edition of Downey and Martez. Trey Downey and Len Martez start the show by discussing the injury to Ryan Jensen and what it means for Tampa Bay. The guys discussed whether the Bucs might go out and get a veteran center or if Robert Hainsey would take over the starting job if Jensen misses extended time.  The conversation then turned to the signing of Julio Jones. Trey and Len agreed that his redzone presence is probably the biggest benefit to signing the vet. Trey questioned though whether signing Jones is worth having to cut one of the Bucs younger options.  Finally Trey and Len discussed some young players on defense who have already been impressive during training camp.  Don’t forget to subscribe to Bucs Nation on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeart Radio, or wherever else you get your podcasts.

Over the past month Trey Downey and Len Martez have previewed the Tampa Bay Buccaneers divisional foes. This week it is time for the Downey & Martez Buccaneers training camp preview. The guys opened the show by discussing running back Leonard Fournette’s weight and how much of a storyline that will be throughout camp. The guys then moved on to what they agreed is the biggest storyline of training camp, the offensive line. The guys discussed and debated who might end up with the final starting guard position between Aaron Stinnie, Robert Hainsey, and Luke Goedeke.  The guys also discussed the tight end position including the signing of free agent Kyle Rudolph and rookie Cade Otton being cleared to practice. Finally, the gents moved on to the defensive side of the ball. Len told you why safety Mike Edwards should have an edge over newly acquired Logan Ryan for one of the starting safety positions. Trey told you why he thinks defensive tackle Rakeem Nunez-Roches could push Akiem Hicks for playing time and Len explained why that would be a big issue if it were to happen.  Don’t forget to subscribe to Bucs Nation on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeart Radio, or wherever else you get your podcasts.

The final edition of our NFC South team previews is on tap on this week’s edition of Downey and Martez. Before Trey and Len got into the New Orleans Saints, the guys had some Tampa Bay Buccaneers news to discuss. Trey and Len kicked the tires on the report by Jeremy Fowler of ESPN that former Minnesota Vikings and New York Giants tight end Kyle Rudolph is drawing interest from the Bucs. The guys then moved on to the Saints. The first topic was how this team might look different in the post Sean Payton era with Dennis Allen as their new head coach. After discussing the additions of safety Tyrann Matthieu, wide receivers Jarvis Landry and rookie Chris Olave, Trey and Len then discussed what to expect from former Bucs quarterback Jameis Winston without Payton. Let’s just say that there was a disagreement in terms of what to expect from Winston, who saw his season end last year when he suffered a knee injury against his former team in week seven. The guys also debated whether the Saints are a playoff team and Len made a bold claim about their defense.

The Carolina Panthers are on the docket for this show.  Trey Downey and Len Martez obviously begin the show by discussing the breaking news that quarterback Baker Mayfield has been traded to Carolina. The guys discussed the deal and how it could end up being a steal for the Panthers. Trey then asked Len just how much of an upgrade Mayfield is over Sam Darnold. Trey then voiced his concerns about the move in relation to Mayfield’s locker room struggles in Cleveland and the shaky coaching situation in Carolina. The gents then went over the off-season moves made to bolster the offensive line. Len also added a potential reason why running back Christian McCaffrey hasn't been able to stay healthy the last two years but examined the difference he could make if on the field this year.

July is here and that means NFL training camps are drawing near. On this week’s edition of Downey and Martez, Trey Downey and Len Martez begin their previews of the Buccaneers divisional foes. First on the docket is the Atlanta Falcons. Trey and Len discuss the Falcons decision to move on from Matt Ryan and Len explains why he thinks the situation in Atlanta is the worst quarterback situation in the NFL. Trey ponders if the Falcons might give rookie quarterback Desmond Ridder a shot at some-point during the season to see what he has, but Len thinks Ridder would be set up to fail. The guys then discuss the limited weapons Marcus Mariota or Ridder have to work with because of wide receiver Calvin Ridley’s suspension. The guys also examine whether Kyle Pitts can make a big leap in year 2 and whether Cordarelle Patterson will offer fantasy owners the same success he did in 2021. The guys close the show by discussing the ongoing disciplinary hearing for Deshaun Watson and agreed that the Cleveland Browns quarterback probably won’t see the field in 2022.

It is time for a big, brand new episode of Downey and Martez. This week’s main topic was obviously Rob Gronkowski’s retirement and the guys discussed it from all angles.  Trey started off by asking Len how surprised he was when the announcement came out. The conversation then went on to whether this is permanent or if Gronk could come back at some point during the season. Trey and Len also looked at what his legacy is and if he will go down as the greatest tight end to ever play in the NFL. The gents then moved onto the implications for the Buccaneers. Names like Jared Cook and Kyle Rudolph were discussed as replacements, but Trey voiced why he thinks Tampa Bay can just go into the season with what they already have. Plus Len added a potential pipe-dream replacement for Gronk. Before wrapping the show up, the guys briefly discussed the release of Bradley Pinion and Ndamukong Suh’s interest in playing for the Raiders.

The weekend is here and a fresh edition of Downey and Martez is here for your listening pleasure.

One of the guys thought that was an interesting development while the other thinks it is a non story. The guys then discussed the other news item that is being talked about coming out of the opening days of mini camp, Leonard Fournette’s weight. Trey and Len debated whether “Hefty Lenny” is something Bucs fans should be worried about. Trey and Len then closed the show with a conversation about who the Buccaneers biggest rival is after Mike Evans comments about the New Orleans Saints earlier in the week.  Don’t forget to subscribe to Bucs Nation on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeart Radio, or wherever else you get your podcasts.

A new month is here and it is time for a new edition of Downey and Martez. Last week on the show the guys discussed the chances of Ndamukong Suh coming back to the Buccaneers.

The guys also pondered just why this move was made.  The conversation then turned to whether Ryan Succop will actually be fighting for his job in training camp.

Another week is in the books which means it is time for another edition of Downey and Martez. On this week’s show Trey and Len discuss the Buccaneers offensive line and why some fans think that Shaq Mason might not start in 2022. After that the guys move on to two positions that are still up in the air for the Bucs, tight end and defensive tackle. Trey and Len debated who is more likely to come back between Rob Gronkowski and Ndamukong Suh and which of these two players would be a bigger hit to the Bucs championship chances if he didn’t return. Finally the guys discussed the two quarterbacks that could still be on the move, Baker Mayfield and Jimmy Garoppolo. Will either be traded before the season? Trey and Len attempted to answer that question. Don’t forget to subscribe to Bucs Nation on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeart Radio, or wherever else you get your podcasts.

Trey and Len then turned to the defensive side of the ball and discussed whether one of the new secondary editions will be the new leader of the unit.  Finally, Trey asked Len what his USFL viewing habits have been like so far.

The NFL schedule dropped on Thursday and that means it is time for a new edition of Downey and Martez. Trey Downey and Len Martez break-down the entire slate of games for the Buccaneers.  Trey starts things off by explaining why he thinks the Bucs opening weekend trip to Dallas is a bit of lazy scheduling from the NFL. Len then told Trey why he thinks the opening month is the toughest stretch Tampa Bay will face all season. The guys then give you the Bucs game they already have circled on their calendars before telling you what match-up not involving Tampa they are most excited to see. Before the show was over the guys discussed Tom Brady’s huge deal with Fox Sports and whether Greg Olsen, former Pro-Bowl tight end turned color analyst, is getting a raw deal.

The boys are back in a big way with an NFL Draft edition of Downey and Martez. The guys hit the record button right after the Buccaneers selected Logan Hall with the 33rd overall selection. The guys discussed the pick and how he fits into Tampa Bay's defense. The guys then rewound to night one and discussed what might have led to the Bucs trading out of the first round. Trey also asked Len if the Bucs might've been hoping that one of the safeties that went at 31 and 32 would be waiting there at 33. The talk then turned to the crazy wide receiver trades. The guys debated whether the Hollywood Brown or AJ Brown trade was more surprising. Len then explained why he was surprised at the lack of quarterbacks taken while Trey doubled down on his prediction for Kenny Pickett. The gents then closed out the show by discussing what Tampa Bay may need to address before the draft is over.  Don’t forget to subscribe to Bucs Nation on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeart Radio, or wherever else you get your podcasts.

Well it's been a couple of weeks but that just means Len Martez has a lot to cover on a new podcast called The Xtra Point. The Buccaneers off-season has been filled with intriguing storylines & this past week was no different. But just when you think Tom Brady's move to unretire was a shocker, the Wednesday night sports headline was Head Coach Bruce Arians was stepping down to take a position in the front office & Defensive Coordinator Todd Bowles was taking over as head coach. But before Len discussed Arians hanging up his playbook, he recapped some of the team's transactions that took place over the last couple of weeks. After talking about some of the team's player moves, Len broke down why he wasn't believing the theories of a quarterback pushing a head coach into retirement. Along with that Len ended this podcast with some NFL draft talk & what part of the roster the team may be looking to bolster in the first round.

Trey Downey and Len Martez are back with a new edition of Downey & Martez. The topic of discussion this week was obvious, the retirement of Tom Brady.

Trey and Len then discussed what he meant to the Bucs and how the second act of his career further cemented his status as the greatest of all time.  The conversation then pivoted to how the news broke. The gents debated whether they believed the news from the start or had to wait until Brady announced it himself. Finally, the guys looked forward. Trey presented a list of every conceivable option the Bucs have at starting quarterback in 2022. Trey started off by explaining why he thinks it is now or never for Kyle Trask.

The Bucs might be entering the off-season after losing to the Rams last Sunday, but there is no offseason for Trey Downey and Len Martez on the Downey and Martez podcast. The guys began this week’s show by recapping just what went wrong for Tampa against LA. The guys certainly praised the comebacks, but had questions when it came to the offensive game-plan in the first half. Trey and Len then discussed if the amount of blame that fans are putting on Todd Bowles for the loss is fair. It was then time to discuss the future of Tom Brady and if Sunday was the last time we'd see him suit up. That conversation led into how a Brady retirement could end up being a domino effect for the Bucs. Trey and Len then got into the coaching carousel and questioned how much Byron Leftwich possibly getting the Jaguars job could impact Brady’s decision. The gents went over the jobs that have already been filled and discussed what direction some of the teams with vacancies might go in.  Before closing the show, Trey and Len got into a heated debate on if the NFL needs to change their overtime rules. The close of the show then came with the guys making their predictions on who would be facing off in the Super Bowl.

With the Bucs advancing past the Eagles it is time for another playoff edition of the Bucs Nation Podcast with Trey Downey and Len Martez. The guys began this week’s show with a brief look back at how the Bucs were able to dominate Philly. The conversation then turned to the injuries on the offensive line. That topic began the preview of the divisional round game against the Rams by discussing just how big of a deal it would be for Tampa to not have Ryan Jensen or Tristan Wirfs. Len then explained why there is one of the 2 that he would rather have against LA if he had to pick. Trey then went into why he thinks the Rams are the worst possible match-up for the Bucs of any of the playoff teams. While the guys both aren’t too optimistic about the Buccaneers advancing to the NFC championship, they both illustrated how Tampa Bay might get past Los Angeles. The guys closed out the show by discussing the remaining 3 games of the divisional round.

Trey Downey and Len Martez are back with you for a wildcard weekend edition of the Bucs Nation podcast. The guys focused on the match-up with the Eagles to start the podcast.

Trey then asked Len if the return of Lavonte David or Leonard Fournette is bigger for the Buccaneers. The guys also discussed the possible return of Miles Sanders and what that could mean to Philly. The guys then pivoted to the remaining 5 games and Len told you why he thinks there will be multiple road teams scoring upsets. Trey then explained why he thinks there is a dark horse team that will end up in the AFC championship game.  Trey and Len then turned away from the games and looked at the head coaching openings. Trey and Len surprisingly agreed on what the best opening is, but disagreed on who might end up with that job.
