You can’t be serious. Did you see how much weight he lost? Welp, not our problem.

He's already been at his playing weight before. He'll get up to it again in no time, and with the pandemic still a thing who knows if we start in September anyhow.

It will, Arians said hes not changing his offense for Brady, Brady with little protection taking shots down field, will get him hurt.

TEs are glorified blockers having glassman Gronk blocking all day for Brady is a waste as well, hope people over draft them in fantasy, I will stay away. These guys will be in Arians offense playing the worst role possible for themselves, Howard wants out over his role on offense, crap run game, Brady will be taking some hits. I call he goes down this year same with Gronk.

Palmer retired from the shots he was taking under Arians and a crap line.
I watched a few games from the last 2 yrs when Palmer was here, he got hit constantly....

TB will add a stud OT and RB in the draft too. Add OT Thomas and Dobbins to that offense, o_O

Brady will get Gronk the ball especially in the red zone. IMO good move for the Bucs.


Yeah I think it is a good move also. BA is at his best with a strong Veteran team.

I think the Bucs will be competitive the next couple of seasons as long as Brady stays healthy. However that team will get OLD fast and BA will leave the cupboards bare when he retires again like he did here in Az.

You are right on both counts. BA loved TE Heath Miller when he was OC with the Steelers. Miller made NFL All Pro twice during that time and was a consistent target.
I also agree that the team will be in trouble quickly when BA retires.

They are ok with that. When you sign a 43 year old QB you are going all in for the short term. If Tampa can win a SuperBowl in the next two years, it worth being terrible for 2-3 years afterwards.

In todays NFL, there is no excuse for a team to be TERRIBLE for more than 2-3 season in a row. Granted, some have pulled it off (Cleveland, Cardinals, Jets, etc)....but if they go full rebuild in a couple of years, dump salary, and acquire high draft picks...they can be an "up and coming team" again in as little as 3 years after winning a SB.

Yeah, especially if you can get a top notch QB.

I hope this whole Tampa Bay SB purchase attempt fails miserably. :p

Would love to watch BA explain a 6-10 season with Brady and Gronk in his huddle.

Belichick would be ROFL.

I think it will.

I also think the Patriots will suck.

I am of the belief Brady has lost a few steps and isn't going to be much better than Jamis was.
