We also debut The Extra Point, where Rondé and JB try to convince producer Rhett why fans should still care about the 2026 Buccaneers. This week’s Pick Six and your Ask Rondé questions round out the show.

The 2026 Tampa Bay Buccaneers season is here, and head coach Todd Bowles joins Pro Football Hall of Famer Rondé Barber and JB Biunno for the ultimate Bucs season preview.

Part 1 goes inside Tampa Bay’s new-look defense. Bowles explains why he believes this is the Buccaneers’ most complete unit in years, how the upgraded front seven could transform his pass rush, what Izaiah Trotter has done to earn the respect of veterans and what fans should watch against Ja’Marr Chase and Cincinnati in Week 1.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers roster cuts are coming, and Rondé Barber is building his final 53. Does Tampa Bay keep three quarterbacks? Is Jake Browning or Jalon Daniels the true QB2? Can Sean Tucker and Josh Williams both survive, and has David Walker pushed Chris Braswell off the roster?
