OT: Official 2020 Tompa Bay Gronkaneers Thread

[BradytoMosstoGronk]

Not seeing the WFT upset, think Brady has a good game along the lines of 3 TDs, 275 yards.

24-14 Bucs

34-17 Bucs. But I hope they don’t go to Lambeau the following week

The Saints DB was grabbing him as well prior to the pushoff. It was either a no call or offsetting replay the down.

I'd argue that's jamming him on the line before the ball's thrown. I don't see a true hold, but I do see a true push off.

 

[LuRkeR1978]

The saints will choke. I will hate to see tampa. It’s very difficult to beat a team 3 times in a season.

SHHHH, you'll make Jaguars' fans cry.

That would be a good point if he was on the line to jam him instead of playing 5 yards off.

Ok, well, you can still jam a receiver 5 yards out anyway. Unless I'm wrong and the rules change when you're closer to the end zone.

Why? I suspect they’d beat a mentally weak, front running team like Green Bay (who they wrecked earlier this season)...much more likely than beating New Orleans.

Agree. Brady is also the best bad weather QB of all time.

Yeah, but it adds another chip on Brady's shoulder. Having to prove himself drives the guy. Whenever he is talking to media, he is always talking about player better.

I was hoping he'd sue the NFL for defamation but knew it wouldn't happen while he is still playing.

I doubt that a Brady vs NYFL lawsuit will ever happen, but if it did I wouldn't bet against Brady.

 

[1960Pats]

One thing I've noticed on social media and forums is that they are extremely concerned with bs like Evan's yards and how the team 'looks' in prime time. All year they would complain he wasn't getting the ball even after wins. Now if the dude isn't right and they put him in there they may regret it if he can't cut properly and it results in a Pick 6 or another injury. Prime AB is so much better than Evans but they love their guy over there. Fair enough.

Speaking of social media, I just watched /the social dilemma yesterday for the first time. It's both fascinating and frightening.

 

[1960Pats]

I am psyched to watch the GOAT tomorrow night. Playoff Tom is my favorite. I also hope Gronk is in 2018 playoff form. That would be special.

It would be great to have the Pats there also, but yeah, the Tompa Bay Gronkaneers will make it fun.

 

[PatsWSB47]

Looks shocking most quarterbacks have loosing road playoff records. Roethlisberger 5-3, Eli Manning 5-2. Flacco 7-5 Kind of outliers. But Rogers 5-6, P. Manning 2-5, R. Wilson 3-5, D. Brees 1-5, matt Ryan 1-3, Joe Montana 2-5, M. Hasselbeck 0-4, McNabb 2-4, Warner 1-2, Favre 3-7, Bradshaw2-3, Steve young 0-3, Aikman1-3, Marino 1-6, Griese 1-3, Stabler 1-4, Phil Sims 1-3, Bledsoe 0-2, Moon 1-4, Alex Smith 1-3, Desshun Watson 0-1, cam Newton 0-2, Andrew Luck 2-4, Andy Dalton 0-3, Tony Romo 2-4......I can go on but you get the idea.

They’re allowing only 10% capacity in there. I think the Lambeau edge won’t mean much. Bucs roll.

 

[amfootball]

Reports are saying Alex Smith is doubtful to play. He had a set back with his calf.

 

[sb1]

Probably not 100% but it won’t matter today.

 

[Wordsmyth]

It would be hilarious if the artists formerly known as the Deadskins beat Tom this weekend.

The 7-9 WTFs don't belong in the playoffs. They beat out only three other teams in the worst division in NYFL history, which was a combined 11-28-1 against everyone else.

Wait till the NYFL goes to 36 teams with two 18 team conferences. Then we can have six 3-team 'divisions' in each conference and maybe a 4-12 team can make it and beat a legitimate playoff team. That will be a real hoot.

 

[RicoG]

Agree. Brady is also the best bad weather QB of all time.

But it's probably a wash as Roger's would be considered the 2nd best.
