NE@TB . PRE-GAME thread

[long distance]

btw - reddit adds TB is only 5-4 under full moon.

Now, Tommy, we HAVE to fix this ugly stain on GOAT records..

 

[Wheelman]

That would be nice. Not sure how much they can fix in 3 days. Maybe they just put Gilmore in man and let him shut down one side of the field. Fix the issues next week.

If Rowe wasn't out, we could have just benched Gilmore.

Branch out, but I'm interested to see if BB has made other major changes. Branch had been playing sparingly anyways. I wonder if he "sticks it out" with the regulars or "plays new guys cause the first 1/4 season was gross on D".

 

[Gwedd]

We better win this game or I'll be making some very angry posts around here

You, and a bunch of drunken board members after they get kicked off the game thread.

Im going to have some mimosas, wine cheese and crackers, some goat cheese pastry puffs, a veggie tray and lite ranch dressing and maybe a wine spritzer

I'll have the same minus the crackers. Carbs...

 

[Mack Herron]

Sigh...

Aside from Harris and Langi, there aren't really any new guys who haven't played significant snaps already.

Gronk is apparently a game time decision tonight. And even if he plays, they're saying he'll be extremely limited.

EDIT: Gronk not expected to play.

 

[Joey007]

Sounds like Gronk's inactive tonight.

Still no excuses though, as the Bucs won't have David or Alexander at LB.

sht



EDIT: sneak preview of how 2017 O looks without Gronk (albeit vs bad D)

 

[RhodyPatriot]

Gronk is out for the game. He has a thigh contusion. This guy's act is so old.

Good call by the NFL to give players just 3 days off between games. Definitely helps both player safety and the product quality.

 

[Uptown]

We don’t really need him tonight. I’d love to have him out there though.

I smell a Hollister breakout. I’ve liked what we’ve seen from his route running.

Maybe Brady can hit Allen in the hands so that we can legitimately complain about Allen's hands of stone.

[Jackson 2]

Why the f### did he travel?

It's a joke whenever I hear the words "players safety" come out of the league's collective mouth.

At this point Brady may have to throw the ball so it sticks in his helmet/face gaurd (or does Allan wear one of the shields, in which case...good luck)
