OT: Official 2021 Tompa Bay Gronkaneers Thread

[Guts]

I think the Bucs are fine if those guys can't go Sunday. They have a running game to lean on too.

Fells will get called up for the 3rd TE, reportedly. Perriman might be a call up as a WR replacement.

I read somewhere Murphy-Bunting should be back and Sherman is healthy again too. So the defense should be in better shape too

Bruce Arians updates the status of Rob Gronkowski and says they want to be cautious with the veteran tight end.... "We think in about two or three weeks he'll be back to normal"

Not to dispute you (it's an update, but doesn't mention any time table), but just to get Arian's words on the subject:

“There’s really no rush,” Bruce Arians says of Sean Murphy-Bunting and Scotty Miller working their way back from injured reserve.

Bucs are still winning the NFC imo. They're the best team when healthy.

I honestly can’t get past how bullsh.it and unfair it is that Gronk got wrecked on one unfortunate random hit in week 3. In those first two weeks he looked rejuvenated. It wasn’t Gronk of the prior two seasons where he was basically a run blocking decoy, it was the Gronk of 2017. He was back and that Gronk combined with those receivers is otherworldly. And I felt legitimately happy for him. But then of course THAT hit happens and now I wouldn’t be shocked if his career is over honestly. Like it genuinely pisses me off.

Tell me about it. He is so exciting to watch. One of his hilight clips below.




In the same vain. AB is also exciting to watch. I haven't see him play that much other than the last 3 season, where he has only played 1, 8, and 4 regular season games. So I'll be watching his hilights.

Evans and Godwin are very good and solid, but they don't make the same kind of hilight reel.

I wanted OBJ to go to the Saints because they aren’t a threat and I think he’s not that good if he’s a teams best weapon. But he’s now the Rams 3rd receiver or whatever and that scares me. Urgh I guess I prefer this to him going to the Packers because the Rams might not win their own division.

Get your popcorn ready! We all love to watch a good train wreck every now and then!

Happy he went to the Rams. Stafford showed last week that he is still Stafford.

I love the aggressiveness of the Rams and I think it's a good way to do business in today's NFL. That said, this changes nothing for them. OBJ would of been much better off here where his YAC would of been a weapon. Even the Saints. What is he in LA? 3rd option? Stafford can't make 3 reads so it's going to be able design by McVay and how the defense responds.

Vegas still has the Bucs as the favorites

Thats definitely because of how it’s probably unlikely that the Rams even win the NFC West which automatically means 3 road games in places like Green Bay, Tampa, and Dallas. Incredibly hard road.

 

[Deus Irae]

I'd really hoped he would choose Seattle, if it was going to be an NFC team.

rams released Jackson cause he was complaining about targets, brown’s released OBJ for the same reason and now we’re here.

I mean I think he is 3rd on the receiving order. he is probably better than that guy, but because this is not madden, he will have to take some time to get used to things. I mean he has not even got to yell at stafford yet.

He's good insurance and that's about it. They aren't giving him any of Kupp's targets and Woods is a different type of receiver. Stafford isn't going through 3 progressions in a MacVay offense. This roster is stacked though but no one will dare say SuperTeam because I guess Brady didn't go there.

I am thrilled he went to LA and not the Packers, Saints or Chiefs. Odell is all about marketing so LA was ideal for him.

IMO he would have been awful with the Pats and wrecked Mac in the process. Bill has traditionally stayed away from guys like him and for good reason. We are starting to build something here slowly. I definitely want us to get an elite receiver but no one like Odell. Would love to see us make a run at Godwin this off-season. He would be ideal for many reasons.
