OT: Official 2020 Tompa Bay Gronkaneers Thread

[Ras-IR Dowling]

I get the sense the country prefers to see Brady win one away from Bill instead of the other way around. Obviously I don’t agree if the Pats are still playing but since they’re not I’m all in on that.

The majority of the country prefers that neither win. The amount of winning accomplished over 20 years will do that to people. It’s how I currently feel about the same 2/3 teams winning in college football every year.

The commentor stated that Brady's 2 TD were his longest playoff passes since 2010/2011 I believe. So there was quite a bit of truth about the dink and dunk. I wonder how much of the lack of deep pass was on McDaniels. It's telling that he didn't get a HC interview this year.

Out of the 4 oldest starting QB it is almost certain that Brady will be back for next season based on his still elite level of play and his guaranteed contract.

NO seems.to have been preparing to move on from Brees after this year. Brees doesn't appear to be able to throw deep consistently. NO is also in cap hell. I think Brees will retire.

Colts would only commit to Rivers for this season. Rivers has declined. Rivers himself is only taking it year to year. I think he is still good enough to play one more season and I think he will play one more year.

Ben has declined year over year the last couple years. You can see a bad playoff game like this coming. I think the Steelers are still on the hook for a significant chunk of his salary for the next season and Ben seems like the kind of guy who will have to be dragged away from the game. I think Ben will come back but will be benched mid season like Eli Manning was.

That doesn’t seem right because he uncorked a couple to Hogan in the 2016 postseason.

Does seem odd but apparently correct. Brown was a 36 yarder and Hogan was a 34 yarder.

Buccaneers' Tom Brady throws his longest TD pass in the playoffs in nine years, also reaches another milestone

Brady snapped a long drought with his 36-yard touchdown pass in the first half against Washington

So twice from all of 2012-2019? Yes definitely not part of the core game plan every year

Browns DC should be fired immediately if they end up losing this game.

Wrong thread. Glad you got a good laugh, Frumpy.

Saints only 3 pt. favorites.

Dear God I'm going to be RICH!

Heard on FESPN today from the nutso concussion commentator crew that the Super Bowl will be played between the two GOATS... Mahomes and Rodgers. It just staggers me how hateful and small minded ex-NFLers are to Tom Brady.

That’s bad even for ESPN.

This board will explode if Brady beats NO and goes back to a title game.

If they beat NO than the Gb will be over by half time

 

[VJCPatriot]

Brady was one of the BEST deep throwers in the entire NFL in 2020. He's not a system QB, he's not just a dink and dunker, although he can do all of that. He's just a great QB. GOAT. I'm gonna be watching the Bucs vs Saints closely. Brady had a lot of drops from his receivers vs Washington, fortunately you can get away with that against them. Against the Saints, the Bucs will have to play their best to advance. But Tommy boy is playing really great football right now. He always seems at his best in the post season.

Lattimore will erase Evans as he always does if Tampa had a coach they’d abuse NO with AB/Brown. Both should get 100 ur games and a td don’t even target Evans but we know Arians will lose this game before tipoff

 

[amfootball]

I am going to enjoy the heck out of this week and the build up to NO/ Tampa.

Not sure if this was mentioned already:

Another prime time game for Brady. He got it over Mahomes/Baker to boot. Pretty special at his age.

I am not worried about the O. The D is the scary part. They cannot play that stupid soft zone.

I agree, they need to be agressive on D. That’s their identity. They need to bring pressure.

But i am not confident in a DC that played single coverage against Hill for almost a half.
